The Explain Why You Like This Album ('cause i don't understand) Thread

[Giant Turtle For Fireball]

really mediocre Bowie, IMO

[Lucky Charm ツ]

She sounRAB like she uses nitrous oxide for mouthwash. I hate it.

[iceka77]

Ha, sure. Just surprises me. I thought Circulatory System's self-titled sounded like another OTC album, just not quite as good. Still had a nuraber of catchy songs to me, it just wasn't genius.

[Mrk_loves_animals]

No.

[Maria_2244]

Do you like Dance music?
No?
That's why.

[Percyboy:R.I.P MJ !]

Spot on, however I believe if an album is good, after a bit of time dedicated to getting into the album, the not being around at the time factor can fade IF the album is actually decent. A few of my favourite albums, at first I just branded them as meh, until I really dug deeper.

When I have a discussion about an album I dislike or don't get, I always hope people who can see something in the album give me an insight, make me see things I didn't previously see.

[Staceylis]

Fair enough, Im not a complete Oasis hater, Definitely Maybe is a great album, slide away is just stunningly brilliant.

I just don't get morning glory, so many poor tracks and as ive already said the title track in particularly makes me want to puke.

[Honestliving]

I was about to get all defensive, but then I thought about this album compared to some other Bowie classics. I guess it doesn't quite measure up. I really respect how experimental this album is, though...and it is still really good. I have certain mooRAB where I really feel like listening to it. But yeah, it's no Hunky Dory.

[Jazzy_Rocks]

Eh, I'll let Sam or someone else talk crap about it first and that'll give me an excuse to go into "worked up hyper defensive proggie" mode.

I'm a bit too tired at the moment.

[Bails]

eh, with the Sex Pistols, it was less about the music and more about the image of the band as punks, which honestly had an effect on the youth of that day and even youth of today.


so yeah, the cd is REALLY overhyped, but it's not that a bad album. honestly, it's got some good stuff there if you ask me.
