qwenta: The Ocean (Collective) ranked!

Pikazilla 01.28.20	4 is 1
qwenta 01.28.20	Fluxion is way better and more focused. Precambrian's duration plays against him. It would be a better album if they had left only one disc with the best.
Scheumke 01.28.20	Pretty much agree with averything here. 1 and 2 are 1 and 2 for sure.
Artuma 01.28.20	what exactly is wrong with precambrian's duration? i mean the first disc probably could've been released as its own ep but the whole thing is just pure gold
qwenta 01.28.20	Precambrian doesn't seem to me like an album, more like a compilation. It has amazing tracks but as an album... I never never hear it at once.
Artuma 01.28.20	uh, no wonder it seems like a compilation to you if you're skipping tracks? or am i missing something here?
DopeFiend 01.28.20	I agree with 1. a lot of greatness compact in 40 minutes. every track is a banger.
qwenta 01.28.20	"uh, no wonder it seems like a compilation to you if you're skipping tracks? or am i missing something here?" I'm not skipping a single track, i just have to stop listening to it at some point. It's too homogeneous. Pelagial is like 20 min longer and it doesn't bore me.
Artuma 01.28.20	"It's too homogeneous" well you officially lost me now
DopeFiend 01.28.20	qwenta pelagial is 53 minutes. Precambrian is 84 minutes
thedoom 01.28.20	Precambrian disc 2 is better than everything else they‘ve done.
NOTINTHEFACE 01.28.20	"It's too homogeneous" Well this is the most wrong thing I will read today. Probably one of my favorite, and most varied, long-form metal records. Ectasian is seriously one of my top 5 metal tracks of all time. On the other hand, I disagree with all the hype here for 1. It's just so cheesy and forced. The Great Dying is just a garbage pop-metal track with little to no variation. Go listen to your Slipknot kid.
DopeFiend 01.28.20	i like how qwenta says Precambrian is too homogenous while also having it 5'd
DamnVanne 01.29.20	The lyrics in all their music are insurmountably cringey but I love me some Pelagial no matter what
TheMightyScoop 01.29.20	@damnvanne doesn't hold a candle to how cringy linkin park lyrics are tho :)
Sevengill 01.29.20	1-4 is #1, 5a-6 is #2, they all fucking rule
qwenta 01.29.20	"well you officially lost me now" The production make it boring. But it's not as diverse as the others. Fluxion flows way better for me. "qwenta pelagial is 53 minutes. Precambrian is 84 minutes" I always listen to the instrumental veersion, before or later. "i like how qwenta says Precambrian is too homogenous while also having it 5'd" Thx! fixed it. "Ectasian is seriously one of my top 5 metal tracks of all time." It's a great tune, but I disagree with all the hype with Precambrian and this track in particular. "The Great Dying is just a garbage pop-metal track with little to no variation. Go listen to your Slipknot kid." This is an argument? A dude who 4.5 a goo goo doll album. I love The ocean discog, but Precambrian is not my n1. Fluxion is better. The greatest bane is better than Ectasian. Just my opinion, don't get mad.
NOTINTHEFACE 01.29.20	Hey my dude, stop projecting. You aired your shitty opinion as if it actually mattered, so don't get mad when people say your opinion is shitty. Seems like an argument is what you were looking for, and so here it is: your opinion is shitty. Ah and digging through ratings of dissenting commenters: the ultimate sputnik power move. Stay classy.
TheMightyScoop 01.29.20	^ great copypasta
DamnVanne 01.29.20	To me, The Ocean is significantly more cringey than any emotional trainwreck like LP. There is already a wide range of artists carrying on about their sensitive shit, but the Ocean taking it upon themselves to be the only band who care enough about looking wise to sing about Aquinas type shit and geological epochs is way more awkward because it makes their music so detached from any emotional component. My 2 cents. Even still, Pelagial is better than Hybrid Theory but don’t tell anyone I said that
TheMightyScoop 01.29.20	"pelagial is better than hybrid theory" objectively true statement. also why would you look at the lyrics for an emotional component in post metal? I couldn't care less about what they're saying, its all about the vocal delivery and instrumentals
NOTINTHEFACE 01.29.20	The Ocean has lyrics?
Sevengill 01.29.20	I don't even pay attention to the lyrics outside of the imagery -- you know, "Feel the cold creep inside / I am losing you to your fears / You're no longer next to me / But this is how it's always been / you were a ghost before you became real" isn't something I'm embarrassed to sing along to.
DamnVanne 01.29.20	I typically pay as little attention to lyrics as possible, with the exception of pop music, but the Oceans lyrics usually stick out. Most of Pelagial is just fine compared with the rest of their discog and it’s awesome that it also happens to be my favorite musically as well
qwenta 01.30.20	"Hey my dude, stop projecting. You aired your shitty opinion as if it actually mattered, so don't get mad when people say your opinion is shitty.

Great argument... for a 5 yo kid. Maybe your parents should worry a little about your education to learn to argue. To say that someone else's opinion is bullshit is pet level, damn, even my dog argue better than you.
