Favorite albums? (lemmygrad.ml)

What albums do yall listen to from beginning to end? There are plenty of artists and bands that I like with great songs but sometimes the album has filler in between the main tracks. Which albums do you feel like have little to no filler? I’d put up Chief Keef’s Finally Rich (debut album) Licensed To Ill by the Beastie Boys, maybe Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band by Beatles, Curtis (1970) by Curtis Mayfield and Cuba Libre by Carlos Puebla. What are your favorites?

Lately I've been really into PetroDragonic Apocalypse; or, Dawn of Eternal Night: An Annihilation of Planet Earth and the Beginning of Merciless Damnation and Fishing for Fishies by King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard. I have listened both like more than 30 times already.

No Gods / No Managers by Choking Victim is all bangers. The songs Money, Fuck America, and Praise the Sinners all sample Parenti speeches lol should definitely give it a listen all their stuff is great. Another ska-punk album I love is the self-titled Operation Ivy.

Warlord by Yung Lean and Eversince by Bladee are my favorite albums though.

[-] Comrade_Improving@lemmygrad.ml 5 points 1 year ago

Hell yeah, those ska-punk albums are great. I always find it funny that the first time I ever heard parenti was in a choking victim album.

[-] kig_v2@lemmygrad.ml 5 points 1 year ago

Bladee is big vibes 🤩🤩😶‍🌫️😶‍🌫️🌊🌊🌊

Choking Victim

fascist band comrade

https://www.reddit.com/r/punk/comments/i6feya/stza_leftover_crack_choking_victim_star_fucking/

you should read up about Stza.

Its a shame, it is a great album but also you should know.

[-] Comrade_Improving@lemmygrad.ml 6 points 1 year ago

I don't think it's correct to call them a fascist band.

They disbanded in 98 and the allegations against Stza are from the 2010s, the fact that a single member became a POS over a decade later doesn't determine what the band is a whole.

Idk, I fell that saying that is like saying that "I Want To Hold Your Hand" is leftist only because John Lennon became one years latter.

Its pretty ironic that John Lennon had a line in the song”Revolution” that goes “But if you go carrying pictures of Chairman Mao, you ain’t gonna make it with anyone anyhow” and later on John Lennon became a supporter of Mao. He said that Mao was doing a lot of spectacular work in China and making it more equal and that he regretted the line in the song. Kinda sucks tho bc there are a lot of old people that uphold that line like its a bible verse

the band as a whole more or less never existed, they where active for a single day then broke up lol, based on that though I think its fair to disavow the 'band' because they themselves have distanced themselfs from Stza

I do agree with your wider points and if you still enjoy them thats fine, I really like the albums they put out too but it can be hard to seperate the art from the artist for me personally.

Any album by La Dispute's Rooms of the House on back will pretty much never get a skip from me. Anti-Flag is also essentially my living anthem in band form.

Can confirm Anti-Flag is based

[-] roux@lemmygrad.ml 4 points 1 year ago

Absolutely. It's my go-to protest punk band. I was watching some live footage and I really wanna see them perform at some point.

I've been listening to 2000s electronic lately, mostly Boards of Canada's "Geogaddi" and "Campfire Headphase" and sometimes The Unicorns' "Who Will Cut Our Hair"

Edit: I don't know how I forgot this, but "The Fire This Time" is an audio documentary about the us intervention in the Middle East that fans of IDM should definitely listen to.

its quickly becoming a favorite, but king gizzard's new album petrodragonic apocalypse definitely ranks up there. overall favorite albums are probably human by death, shed by title fight, or fear of music by talking heads. all of kraftwerk's albums are also pretty close to favorites, especially "the mix", a re-recording of all their hits where they somehow take their masterpieces and make them even better. i own the mix on tape and listen to it almost every day lol

(Fukkit), Big Fish Theory (Vince), untitled unmastered (Kendrick), 2022 VOL 1 & 2 (WILLIE G), Iron (Woodkid)

My ranking can be fickle sometimes, but my top 15 roughly stays the same

I slept hard on JESUS IS KING for, perhaps, some obvious reasons, but I heard it at work and its actually so good, some wince parts nonwithstanding but that's life.

Great list btw, Kendrick is a legend. I was a huge Kanye fan when I was younger and sorta listened to him less and less after his Trump turn, I completely skipped Jesus Is King bc it seemed like he was focusing too much on religion, I miss his old stuff, like anything from Life of Pablo all the way back to when he performed in ‘03 on Chappelle’s Show, but Donda had some amazing tracks here and there

  • Prince Daddy & The Hyena S/T
  • Viagra Boys - Cave World
  • Wu-Tang - 36 Chambers
  • The Falcon - Unicornography
  • illuminaties hotties - Let Me Do One More
  • Cat Heaven - Fear of a Cat Planet
  • Bomb the Music Industry - Get Warmer
  • Vial - Loudmouth
  • Ceschi - This Guitar Was Stolen Along With Years of Our Lives

idk I kinda only listen to albums all the way through, never got into listening to songs by themselves. My list is 100% recency bias, I kinda go in waves with albums

Ooh the 36 Chambers is insanely good. Like for a group with that many people, I think they really made it work giving each one their style of flow and personality. Not easy to accomplish bc they had like 7-8 people I think. Protect Ya Neck will ALWAYS be a legendary track, the energy of that song is just incredible, great music to exercise to also

Pink Floyd's Animals, maybe Iron Butterfly's Inagadadavida, I like the B side songs.

Achievement by PilotRedSun

His music channel though is PilotRedSky so it's interesting that he put Achievement on his animation channel. He's more active musically nowadays.

Dethalbum IV, I've been waiting for this for too long

[-] Farvana@lemmygrad.ml 6 points 1 year ago

Slowdive self-titled is perfect. Isaiah Rashad's Cilvia Demo. OM's Conference of the Birds.

I can sing every word of Songs: Ohia - Magnolia Electric Company. If you think you're not into country, give that album a listen.

[-] kig_v2@lemmygrad.ml 4 points 1 year ago

Rashad is so fucking it. Ill give Ohia a try
