That's a great one, but Laura's vocal contribution on Imperfect But Ours is so good, I'd have to say that one

@YakNips Granted some parts went on and on and on but still everything as a whole was mind blowing. Don't know why I don't listen to ambient stuff more often.

:]



I believe everything on this album is intentional. Bits of beauty surrounded by bleak nothingness.



I think it's genius, really.

Most of it was genius. Though the talking bits in the third song (I think, but could have been the fourth) I could have done without. Still the last five minutes of the album I literally said, "Oh my god" in a soft whisper. No joke haha

Haha, I know what you mean. The last 5 minutes are just sonic nothingness, the fucking bleakest thing I've ever heard. Yeah, the only thing I don't like is how Antennas To Heaven starts out with like 4 different samples, but then it turns into the best thing ever so that's alright.



Also I just realized I claimed the 100th page on my favourite album ever. I feel proud.

@Yaknips Kinda sounds like this stuff belongs in a bleak horror movie or something along those lines.

Nothing wrong with bleak stuff though cause it tends to have a lot more meaning than upbeat stuff imo.





I'll definitely come back to this though. I hate when I try to get one of my friends to listen to

something and they just say "will it make me feel sad?" Like don't give me that shit lol

Yeah I hate when people say this album is "pretentious."

It's a work of art, it's not supposed to be something you put on and just mindlessly enjoy. It's something to be appreciated, as art is.



But yeah, I have friends like that. Some people just aren't that into music enough to really "get" it, as douchey as that sounds.

@YakNips Yeah dude I know what you mean. I understand what you mean some people just aren't into music like that. But lots of people don't get that music is not just designed as a form of entertainment. At least in my eyes. Music is really cathartic for me personally.
