Gonna move Laurel Halo - Dust into my top 10 ladies albums list

And Atlas in the top 50

Huh?

Oh

@branmalt @Koala @leals_core

pretty decent stuff. gets really nice at the end

yet another album to dl and add to backlog list i gotta do something about this

Yeah press play and stop marinating on a single album for 3 years

Just stream

downloading isnt the problem, its having so much stuff im interested to listen to.

and it feels like a good 5-10% of the stuff I listen to isnt on streaming anyway which already gets annoying and I just use it sometimes on my work computer/in the car. and its also nice to organize the rest of the stuff exactly how I want it and not be subject to things like every title having "2017 Remaster" in the title or having to sift through messy streaming discographies with a bunch of versions or whatever

i dont marinate for 3 years. i try to listen to everything like 3-5 times and i just listen to like 10-15 new albums a week usually

still classic

That’s a lot

Yeah I feel like I wouldn't be able to make a real connection with anything outside my usual wheelhouse after 3 to 5 listens

I let the connection just happen naturally but when it hits I go marination mode like a motherfucker

my wheelhouse is bigger now so i dont think it takes me as many as it used to. and thats the minimum just for the first 2-3 months after i peep, a lot end up getting more. and the goal is for all of them to eventually get more every once in a while as the years pass

also listen for about 10 hours a day so i try to keep an acceptable balance

final U2 ranking/rating @Elric

1. Achtung Baby - 10/10
2. The Joshua Tree - 9/10
3. War - 9/10
4. The Unforgetteble Fire - 8.5/10
5. All That You Can't Leave Behind - 8/10
6. Zooropa - 8/10
7. Boy - 8/10
8. Pop - 7.5/10
9. October - 7.5/10
10. Rattle and Hum - 7/10
11. How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb - 6.5/10
12. No Line on the Horizon - 6.5/10
13. Songs of Innocence - 6.5/10
14. Songs of Experience - 5/10

That Monsters of Folk album from 2009 should be so much better thought about. It’s the rare supergroup that actually lives up to the talent involved. Everybody brings their A game crafting immediately memorable songs—as if they’ve been around forever. Tracks like The Right Place and Magic Marker are just so nice.

Same top 4

He's got two of their best in his bottom 3

I'll chalk it up to lack of marination

pull up with your ranking then

im with you that those albums are at least decent (11-13 are pretty much tied anyway) but cant justify any of them above anything from 1980-2000. and even Rattle and Hum just cuz a few of those studio cuts are so great

hope you're not a Pop detractor, that one could honestly move up a few spots with more time

havent you still refused to even listen to one of their albums the one that comes before those 2 you stan?

bizarre marination tactic if ive seen one
