[Guest Makinami]

Carl Craig - Landcruising

 

It's the only LP I like all its tracks.

The Strokes albums.

 

With the exception of a couple of tracks on the last album, i concur.

 

 

Ye, actually only applies to Room On Fire and Is This It?

[Beholdapalehorse]

Too many albums are great for me, so I really can't put up any albums. On 99.99999% of my music I listen start to finish, and if there were misses on them I wouldn't do that.

well...magic window?

[Capsaicin]

Magic Window doesn't count

[Guest Calx Sherbet]

YES IT DOES

 

they worked hard on that track!

[Guest bacteriatastic]

a lot of these albums have songs that sound similar.

 

consistency, i think, is what makes an album a "perfect" album. like, if you like the first track, you'll like all of the tracks because they sound the same.

 

but isn't "sameness" something to avoid when making an album? i guess it all depends

 

what's the difference between consistency and sameness?

[Capsaicin]

YES IT DOES

i would just say consistency is more about quality

[Capsaicin]

A consistently quality album, usually with the tracks sounding similar to some degree.

[Suffocate Peon]

Venetian Snares - Cavalcade of Glee. It's not particularly varied, but that means there's no weak track that's too much of a deviation or could be considered filler. Tache is probably the least strongest, because by that point the sound wears thin, it's also the second longest track and doesn't need to be. XIII's Dub and Twirl are more elegant and tranquil than anything he's ever done, and are placed so they give you a breather from the more full on tracks, while still being as rich and twisted. Then P is a sweet ambient track, and Cancel is the most emotional piece he's done.

[Guest Dirty Protest]
