Words of widsom. Miles Davis, pure genius.Raoul Duke said:If I could only have one album to listen to for the rest of eternity, I can honestly say that I would never get tired of this one:
i'd like to say that i'm phil's biggest fan, but sadly there are others far more fanatical than i am. i even missed him a couple months ago.Gribbix said:Funny. I was intending on picking up the Glow pt. 2 tomorrow.
damn, i kind of want a physical copy of this. i've only heard the mixdown version.Litigation Manuel said:
Zaireeka by the Flaming Lips. It's one album split up onto 4 cds that you have to get some friends together with 4 cd players to play all at the same time. It's different everytime you listen to it. And it's all surround sound, and delicious.

I knew this was coming, hehspangler said:Probably Neutral Milk Hotel's In the Aeroplane Over the Sea. Super good stuff.

ItalianStallion said:Anything else by GNR? The only other options are:
Appetite for Destruction
Lies
The Spaghetti Incident
As great as those are, Use Your Illusion 1 & 2 are my favorite. The 2 albums combined span 30 songs of what I think are the greatest rock songs and ballads I've ever heard -- what more could I ask for?
And I fell in love with Neutral Milk Hotel not because of what I heard on On the Aeroplane Over the Sea, but because of "Gardenhead, Leave me Alone" off of On Avery Island.spangler said:I can understand why one would get bored with Neutral Milk Hotel. I haven't, though. Can't really get into Mangum's Bulgarian folk music obsession, unfortunately. On a somewhat related note, the reissue of those Olivia Tremor Control albums a few months back was an awfully nice surprise. The Circulatory System album is pretty good as well. Hell, I'd recommend the majority of the Elephant Six releases to anyone. Oddly, though, I can also see where one might hate all of these albums.
Or can I...?
ballhog said:Maybe I'm just lumping those albums in with "November Rain", which for whatever reason, has recently reappeared on the local radio stations regular rotation. I hate that song, just so endlessly boring. Also "Civil War", aside from humans, I can't think of anyone with grocery stores. What the hell is Axl talking about??
ItalianStallion said:I'm not a fan of November Rain either, the song doesn't do much for me. Not one of the high points for Use Your Illusion 1
As for Civil War, I think he's talking about how the government goes ahead and drafts people, as though they're going to the grocery store and picking out who they need. Then again that may not be what he's trying to get across, but that's how I interpret it.
"I don't need your civil war
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor
Your power hungry sellin' soldiers
In a human grocery store"
NOW AINT THAT FRESH!?
