I did not know that people made an effort to make terrible music until I read this tweet.

The Money Store is a good album and I like a couple Jandek songs

[bune]

You're going to have to link to these "songs" because most of what I've heard from him is pure noise.

The hipsters really love Death Grips these days.

Blind Melon was the most talented band of the 90s including PJ and had Shannon lived they wouldve blown up.

Jeff Beck is a better guitarist than Jimi Hendrix

Kurupt is the most underrated rapper of all time

Half Light II is Arcade Fires best song

Buddy Holly was more important to Rock music than Elivis

I never cared for David Byrne.

The only Byrne i care in my life is John Byrne.

I like the first Tom Tom Club album way more than anything by Talking Heads.

I would recommend Sticky Fingers, Exile on Main Street, Some Girls, Beggar’s Banquet, and Let It Bleed. Those all speak to their album crafting that I believe goes beyond just a collection of singles. Also when they were most challenging themselves without going off the deep end completely.

Yes. I really like Exile and Let It Bleed myself. Great albums.

I did some advance research a few years ago to figure out what their best years were. Since I still don’t rely on a streaming service and work off word of mouth (and internet to a lesser extent), these seemed like the way to go and I definitely was impressed.

Incubus’s Morning View is a beautifully realized musical vision with a sound and feel unlike anything else. I remember Devin Townsend saying that when he made his album Physicist, his goal was to make a metal album without any anger or aggression. While it’s not metal, I think Morning View accomplishes something similar (with a few exceptions; there’s a little venom in “Circles” and “Blood on the Ground”). Like, “Wish You Were Here” is a hooky rock song with loud, hard guitars, but there isn’t an ounce of aggression anywhere in it. Just pure warmth, happiness, joy. It’s airy and light and breezy. I wish there were more music like this.

I haven't heard the album, but their songs played on the radio always make the same impression on me. I'm glad to agree with you, LoathedVermin72 .
