9 Years of Mort.
User MortimusPrime joined 9 years ago on this day. I don't have a lot in common with his taste, but here's the middle ground between us. |
| 1 |  | Baths
Cerulean
He has this 5'd? Same bro |
| 2 |  | Slint
Spiderland
I don't have this 5'd but it's good, nice one Mort. |
| 3 |  | U.S. Maple
Long Hair in Three Stages
Possibly his weirdest 5, but damn it's a good one. |
| 4 |  | Brian Eno
Another Green World
I honestly prefer his first 2 to this, but it has song great songs on it still! |
| 5 |  | Camel
Mirage
Surprising to see in his 4.5's actually hmmmm |
| 6 |  | Nirvana
In Utero
Grunge is good, yeah |
| 7 |  | The Kinks
The Village Green Preservation Society
I actually haven't heard this one yet, but other Kinks releases I've heard are great so this is prob great. Hmmmmmmm |
| 8 |  | Brainiac
Bonsai Superstar
If this list were about my ratings, this and Long Hair would be swapped, but hey a 4's still a good rating for the best noise rock album ever. |
| 9 |  | Can
Tago Mago
Classic stuff, good pick |
| 10 |  | Cocteau Twins
Treasure
3 of my 5's in his 4's in a row, dang. |
| 11 |  | Coil
The Ape Of Naples
Honestly, this album is VERY overrated, but check other Coil maybe Love's Secret Domain? I think you could like it though maybe Musick to Play in the Dark Vol. 1 is more your thing? But seriously guys The Ape of Naples is not Coil's best grrr. |
| 12 |  | Comus
First Utterance
I have this 4'd too. |
| 13 |  | David Bowie
Scary Monsters (and Super Creeps)
Best Bowie, nice. Ziggy's great too obviously. |
| 14 |  | Dead Can Dance
Within the Realm of a Dying Sun
Accidentally missed this in his 4.5's and got to his 4's and was like "you like Spleen and Serpent more than Realm?" I was incorrect there, he does not prefer those. |
| 15 |  | Frank Zappa
Hot Rats
Another one of my 5s. Something, something check more by him something, something The Grand Wazoo. |
| 16 |  | Kate Bush
The Dreaming
I prefer Hounds, but I mean this is still glorious. |
| 17 |  | Meat Puppets
Meat Puppets II
I mean this and Up on the Sun are both fantastic yeah. Good pick. |
| 18 |  | Melt-Banana
Fetch
Also fantastic weirdo noise rock. Good shit. |
| 19 |  | Minutemen
Double Nickels on the Dime
Yup this is fantastic. Need to check more by them...one day. |
| 20 |  | Mr. Bungle
California
Weird this album is probably one of my least listened to 5's nowadays, but it's still awesome and I AM Sputnamed after a song on here. |
| 21 |  | Nine Inch Nails
The Downward Spiral
I guess I prefer Year Zero because I'm that guy... but this is still a great one. Nice. |
| 22 |  | Pink Floyd
The Dark Side of the Moon
Surprised you like Piper so much, but I guess the other 2 don't surprise me (also good of course,) but where's Animals? :o |
| 23 |  | Pixies
Surfer Rosa
Another one of my 5s. Damn, I think if Mort gave me the aux, he wouldn't actually mind my choices. |
| 24 |  | Portishead
Dummy
I think anyone with ears like this one tbh, so good choice. |
| 25 |  | Sonic Youth
Daydream Nation
Whoo another one of my 5s. I deff recommend Washing Machine next based on your ratings. |
| 26 |  | Talking Heads
Remain in Light
When is this band gonna have a revival hit like Kate Bush and Fleetwood Mac did? They're obviously a good candidate and can we please make sure it's Once in a Lifetime and not Psycho Killer or Burnin Down the House? Yeah yeah yeah |
| 27 |  | The Beatles
Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band
Uh idk what is there to say about this band at this point. |
| 28 |  | The Jesus Lizard
Liar
Do I prefer Goat or Liar? hmmmm I may never know. Maybe Mort feels the same because he has both 5'd. |
| 29 |  | The Velvet Underground
The Velvet Underground
Interesting. Not talked about as much on here as it should be.
CONCLUSION: You may think some people have very different tastes based on assumptions, but there's always more crossover than you think. 9 years of Mort....9 years of Ars what a day :D |
