JohnnyoftheWell
06.05.21 | ok computer |
Havey
06.05.21 | taste is subjective :/ |
Demon of the Fall
06.05.21 | @Johnny: what’s a based spread? |
JohnnyoftheWell
06.05.21 | dope range of complementary shit that is dope or edgy idk (eg trif almost losing cred for his not amazing Ulver pick but then gaining it because it is rogue). it is feng shui. it is subjective
|
Havey
06.05.21 | Coffee Peanut Butter Spread would be one example of a based spread |
theBoneyKing
06.05.21 | Personally I think having the confidence to say OK Computer is in your top 5 rather than succumbing to the edgelord temptation is more based |
JohnnyoftheWell
06.05.21 | I would agree if it was either the best Radiohead album or not an Oxford psyop |
Demon of the Fall
06.05.21 | Yeah I agree with Boney to an extent, which is why Kid A is actually the most based pick 😉.
If you’re going to go with arguably the most painfully obvious ‘indie music fan’ artist, at least make it the right album. |
Pangea
06.05.21 | agreed |
theBoneyKing
06.05.21 | I’m just trying to justify my normie-ness. |
JohnnyoftheWell
06.05.21 | Kid A is the best "i listened to indietronica once" album yeah. Boney wins |
Ryus
06.05.21 | based havey! |
ThyCrossAwaits
06.05.21 | maudlin of the Well - “Bath”

Demon of the Fall
06.05.21 | I bet everyone’s ‘2nd tier’ is the most interesting, I can’t put a number/range on it because it’ll be different for everyone. |
JohnnyoftheWell
06.05.21 | The 4.7 tier?? |
theBoneyKing
06.05.21 | Yeah my 4.8/4.9 tier is a bit more interesting than the 5.0 tier. |
ChrimzonCanine
06.05.21 | Tool - Lateralus
The Cure - Disintegration

The Beach Boys - Pet Sounds
The Beatles - Revolver
The Stone Roses - The Stone Roses
XTC - Skylarking
Top 5's are pretty hard, but I think that's it, a few common picks, but hey, it is what it is
|
theBoneyKing
06.05.21 | Don’t think I knew you were that big on ‘60s stuff Proto |
JohnnyoftheWell
06.05.21 | Polvo |
DoofDoof
06.05.21 | Boney, Death Cab for Cutie above any Lambchop? - big nostalgia pick I guess |
protokute
06.05.21 | It's my favorite music decade by far, Boney! And it's also the one I have a more extensive knowledge about... I've been considering doing a list on my favorite 60's albums for a long while, but I need to grow the motivation for it, I have a problem with the descriptions for each pick, I never know exactly what to say there |
theBoneyKing
06.05.21 | Yeah Doof my top ‘Chop would be closer to top 20 material. No Lambchop is totally blemish-free in the way that all those 5 I mentioned are. And Death Cab is big nostalgia for me for sure. But my top 3-4 ‘Chop albums fit in the gap of quality between Transatlanticism and the next best Death Cab.
That’d be neat to see Proto! There are def a lot of people (myself included) who have a pretty big oversight for 60s outside of the heaviest hitters. |
DoofDoof
06.05.21 | I'd say the Tindersticks debut and 'Is a Woman' both have blemishes but that doesn't hold them back from me considering them total classics
I'd also definitely say Yankee Hotel Foxtrot would be in a similar boat, classic album, has a few not too obtrusive slight blemishes |
JohnnyoftheWell
06.05.21 | Blemishless classics don't exist
unless you count 4'33 |
DoofDoof
06.05.21 | I'd say 'Kaputt' for me is the most blemish free classic album, same quality throughout almost.
Even 'Infected' and 'Ok Computer' have one weaker track each ('Slow Train to Dawn' and 'Electioneering' respectively, though both are still great songs in my book) |
DoofDoof
06.05.21 | 4'33 is faultless though [2] |
JohnnyoftheWell
06.05.21 | Haha I knew you'd say Kaputt; it's pretty close for me tbh, only track I (mildly) don't vibe is Savage Night At The Opera but that's marginal. been too long since I tuned in to it, mainly been jamming standalone cuts from Streethawk for the last few months
also haven't heard The The in maybe 10 yrs; my dad used to spin the vinyl but I didn't pay it enough attention. similar story with Prefab Sprout. hmmm |
theBoneyKing
06.05.21 | I guess I just mean blemish-free in the sense that there isn’t a clear nadir that I’m not actually a huge fan of out of context. Is a Woman could lose “Flick” or Parseley and I wouldn’t mind much. Even “Electioneering” and “Fitter Happier” are pretty essential imo. Every track on the 5 I mentioned has had at least one listen where it really stood out/hit me hard. |
ArsMoriendi
06.05.21 | The Mothers of Invention - We're Only in It for the Money
PJ Harvey - To Bring You My Love
Brainiac - Bonsai Superstar
The United States of America - The United States of America
Ween - Chocolate and Cheese
no surprises, this has been decently consistent
I kinda wanna swap Tago Mago for one of those 5, but IDK which |
DoofDoof
06.05.21 | I like 'Savage Night At The Opera' a lot, good change of pace - I think if it wasn't there you'd still need a similar song with a similar tempo.
The The and Prefab Sprout are 50% all you need from the '80s pre much |
Havey
06.05.21 | show me a blemishless performance of 4'33" please |
JohnnyoftheWell
06.05.21 | I can't control my bladder for that long

The Beatles -Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band
|
theBoneyKing
06.05.21 | Cicadas have been playing some pretty bangin’ versions of 4’33” lately. |
Havey
06.05.21 | they've been known to struggle with the durational aspect of the work, it might help if they learned how to read a watch |
JohnnyoftheWell
06.05.21 | what do cicadas eat other than the passage of time and do they pass wind is the chiczzzzz too hard? |
Demon of the Fall
06.05.21 | Atari has Symbolic, whaaa? It’s also a contender for me, although I flip-flop between it being borderline top 10 and an actual top 5 contender. |
Atari
06.05.21 | I’ve loved Symbolic almost as long as I’ve been on this site, haha ;)
