"It's weird this is more digestible than any of Sunn or Scott Walker's previous works. I like it. "

you think so? I find walker's sparse folk albums to be immediately listenable

anyways another attentive listen this still is not remarkable IMO and you can have ur own opinion, but i plan to play it enough to get positive association through repetitive exposure and hearing others talk about it positively q:


shut up

Best to approach it not expecting it to sound like Sunn O))) and expecting more late era Scott Walker.

So, while I'm a fan of Scott Walker's recent albums, I would like to see a return to the more subtle approach Tilt had. He seems to be all about becoming increasingly blunt and crude. And I respect him for that, he does a good job with it. I also know it's silly to ever expect or want Scott Walker to revisit anything he did in the past, and I don't want him to rehash tilt. I'd just like to hear him over something with a similar sort of subtle, hazy dreamlike quality like that album had. Even the Drift was closer to that approach, and it felt like there was more "sophistication" (I can't explain) to how it was carried out.



I'd call Tilt more eerie compared to the Drift's scary and Bish Bosch's icky.

Something I noticed is that Bish Bosch seems to have more in common with "experimental/avant garde" rock or metal albums in terms of arrangement, where the Drift and Tilt felt closer to some 20th century classical in approach (not claiming it is anywhere near as complicated or anything, just the angle it was coming from).



I've also observed how many metal fans seem to latch on to Bish Bosch and rank it higher than the Drift or Tilt. It's more immediate and less subtle/dense and the strangeness/silliness is more like a slap in the face compared to the two that preceded it.



That's why Soused was really not much of a surprise beyond the fact that Scott Walker pretty much never collaborates with anyone.
