this album very deliberately uses some "dated" turn of the decade acid sounds, fantastically ofc, so why do the people who love this not love the debut? :[

> I'm even going to check The Middle Of Nowhere today. Who knows, it might be good!



i recall it being not bad tbh, but i havent heard anything from it in yyyyears

Album Rating: 4.5

Yeah that's a very good point! It sadly isn't as hyped up as this one. If you can even call this one hyped up here...



At least we Know, park.

I will check but not sure when



Maiden is still looming over me

Album Rating: 4.0

that period is such a mess when it comes to genre and classification, unlike the music itself which can be very creative and led to a lot of different genres later in the 90s

Album Rating: 3.5

I can't imagine caring about Maiden in 2021, even if it's good. I don't really listen to Maiden though. Might dust off Seven Sons or Powerslave once in a blue moon, that's about it.

And yeah I don't remember liking the first Orbital, not sure why now... oh wait 'Orbital 2' isn't great apparently. This may need investigating.

park do it please I will visit the thread daily for seven months and seven weeks you know it!



Checking or revisiting their early records is totally worth it.



Talking about worth it: Middle of Nowhere's opener was nice!

Album Rating: 4.0

the problem is i feel like i dont understand that critical period as thoroughly as i understand say the history of metal

Album Rating: 4.5

Yeah I get that. It is a dauntingly diverse and open-minded and explorative and creative and limitless era. Makes it hard. But also makes it GREAAAAT.

Album Rating: 4.0

ofc, its not an issue with the music itself, just with communicating why its great to other people

Album Rating: 4.5

I have that problem with most of my 5.0s too. How can you make people see what is so good about them aaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

Album Rating: 4.0

a lot of us tend to think of music in terms of genre, but the way edm subgenres are typically defined might be a little too precise (with the exception of idm which is just bullshit)



because a lot of these albums change genre from track to track, going by those definitions

"because a lot of these albums change genre from track to track, going by those definitions"



This 100%. God I love 90s electronic. 90s in general of course.

Album Rating: 4.0

basically a "house" or "techno" album of the era is most likely gonna be a lot less homogenous than a 1hour dj set

Album Rating: 4.5

Yeah for sure. So much cool stuff happening all the time.
