Maniac!
04.12.11 | No. But good try. |
NeroCorleone80
04.12.11 | Was hard to do, since I couldnt fit in so many other good ones |
Maniac!
04.12.11 | My top 3 are:
Locust Star
To the Wind
Crawl Back In
But honestly, there's no "bad" Neurosis song, so a top 10 is too annoying to do. You'll always feel like you are leaving out something important

LurchWorks
04.12.11 | i hate to the wind. the way he never finishes the word "wind". this fucking never ending wiiiiiii- |
Crysis
04.12.11 | I love "A Season In The Sky" |
bowlofsoup
04.12.11 | I've never really listened to these guy. What would be the best place to start? |
NeroCorleone80
04.12.11 | Depends. Do you already listen to any post-metal? |
Maniac!
04.12.11 | The Eye of Every Storm is their most accessible
Through Silver in Blood is their best, and most chaotic
A Sun that Never Sets is more Accessible than TSIB and is my second favorite
start with A Sun That Never Sets imo. |

04.12.11 | I've got nothing going on, so I'll get on that right now. Thanks. |
MO
04.12.11 | love 5 |
DominionMM1
04.12.11 | I gotta disagree with you, Maniac. ASTNS, at least to me, isn't very accessible. I'd start with The Eye Of Every Storm. |
Maniac!
04.12.11 | Either one.
ASTNS clicked with me instantly and didn't seem too abrasive or too slow, so it really just depends on the person. |
NeroCorleone80
04.12.11 | As long as someone doesnt start with TSIB. I dont think it matters where you start really |
Maniac!
04.12.11 | ... I started with TSIB and 5'd it in a week.
It depends on the person.
btw it was also my first PM album |
DominionMM1
04.12.11 | You don't find TSIB accessible, Nero? I personally found it more acccessible than most of the stuff they've done with Steve Albini. But, then again, I just prefer the more claustrophobic sound of their mid-period stuff. |
Maniac!
04.12.11 | TSIB was accessible to me, whereas Times of Grace took me FOREVER to get into. |
NeroCorleone80
04.12.11 | I found it pretty inaccessible for a while. Mainly because most of the build ups take so long to develop. |
bowlofsoup
04.12.11 | I'm thinking I might just go chronologically. I always seem to get into a band the easiest that way. |
Maniac!
04.12.11 | ...if that's what it takes for something to be inaccessible for you... you just described 95% of post-metal |
Maniac!
04.12.11 | DON'T
Neurosis was VERY different at first. |
Maniac!
04.12.11 | Make sure you read the reviews before you get them, so you know what you're getting. |
bowlofsoup
04.12.11 | Alright. I'll probably just go with what you said first then. Exactly what was different about their sound? I really know nothing about neurosis |
Psychopathologist
04.12.11 | this list is disturbingly similar to what mine would look like
rules |
Maniac!
04.12.11 | read:
http://sputnikmusic.com/review/41341/Neurosis-Pain-of-Mind/ |
bowlofsoup
04.12.11 | Yeah, I was just about to say that I should probably get to reading the reviews. |
bowlofsoup
04.12.11 | What a sentence
|
DominionMM1
04.12.11 | Actually, doing it chronologically wouldn't be a bad idea if you started with 'Souls At Zero'. Their first 2 records ('Pain Of Mind' and 'Word As Law') are basically just standard hardcore/crossover and nothing special. |
Rev
04.12.11 | Start at TSIB and go from there |
bowlofsoup
04.12.11 | I'll be looking into these guys after exams. From what Maniac said, I'll need to set aside a ton of time to really appreciate their music. |
Relinquished
04.12.11 | "i hate to the wind. the way he never finishes the word "wind". this fucking never ending wiiiiiii-"
he does that for more than 20 something seconds. that's really impressive and I love that. |
DominionMM1
04.12.11 | ^Exactly. It's freakin' epic. How can one hate that part and still like Neurosis. |
NeroCorleone80
04.12.11 | Yeah that scream is ridiculous |
Relinquished
04.12.11 | "Actually, doing it chronologically wouldn't be a bad idea if you started with 'Souls At Zero'."
I'd recommend this to anyone. Some people here would say the same, it's just a matter of which one you'll find to be your favorite. |
kangaroopoo
04.12.11 | Great list, love 2,3,9,10, I'd have fear and sickness in there |
BodhisattvaWhoHears
04.17.11 | no crawl back in = fail |
Maniac!
04.17.11 | ^^^^ |
sifFlammable
04.17.11 | I really liked 'fear and sickness' and 'under the surface' |
NeroCorleone80
04.17.11 | Yeah, I feel bad for missing out so many good ones, but what can you do with a band like Neurosis when all songs pretty much rule |
OmairSh
08.31.13 | Back when Nero did lists |

03.04.14 | Necrobump if I ever saw one. |
Insurrection
03.04.14 | was gonna bitch about the last youll know not being here but you didnt disappoint nero. eye is one of my least favs on TSIB tho tbh still rules

Ending
03.04.14 | I couldn't even pick a top 3 let alone a top 10 from these guys. |
