Regardless of whether or not you actually like the music, which title for an album is your favourite?
I Am Not Afraid of You and I Will Beat Your Ass by Yo La Tengo.
I only like the first song but I like that song enough that I bought the album on Vinyl.
He Has Left Us Alone but Shafts of Light Sometimes Grace the Corner of Our Rooms…
A Silver Mount Zion?
Er wait, was that one Do Make Say Think?
Weasels Ripped my Flesh is the first to come to mind, but I’m also partial to The Muscular Sorrow of Sadbrain Beardman
69 Love Songs is hard to beat, especially since it’s also an accurate description of the album and full of bangers.
Oof, such a good album. “All my little words” is one of the best songs ever written.
Spacemen 3 - Taking Drugs to Make Music to Take Drugs to
Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness - I’ve been saying the phrase ever since. Example:
Friend : “I got demoted to silver in League”
Me: “Damn, that’s infinite sadness”
I’ve always liked that Fiona Apple named an album, “When the pawn hits the conflicts he thinks like a king What he knows throws the blows when he goes to the fight And he’ll win the whole thing 'fore he enters the ring There’s no body to batter when your mind is your might So when you go solo, you hold your own hand And remember that depth is the greatest of heights And if you know where you stand, then you know where to land And if you fall it won’t matter, cuz you’ll know that you’re right.”
It’s commonly referred to as simply, “When the pawn”.
The REM album Fables of the Reconstruction was intended to be printed in a circle around the record to make it ambiguous:
Fables of the Reconstruction /
Reconstruction of the FablesThe record company fucked it up
For some reason these two by Strapping Young Lad fell into my head:
- For Those Aboot To Rock
- Heavy As A Really Heavy Thing
Equally Cursed and Blessed by Catatonia.
Circusized Peanuts by Warlock Pinchers
And Out Come the Wolves by Rancid or Today’s Empire, Tomorrow’s Ashes by Propagandhi.
Lounge Against the Machine by Richard Cheese deserves an honourable mention.
I forgot who made it because it’s not the type of music I listen to but there’s an album called “Tentacle Induced Intestinal Displacement”. I just like how specifically absurd it is and It’s album art is equally as extreme. Assuming it hasn’t been removed, it was on Spotifiy when I found it, if you are curious about it for some reason.
In Rainbows - Radiohead
Good art
