while these are all mostly great, essential albums, it's hard not to be annoyed by how pretentious this chart is lol

mostly i just hate the dumb terminology they've chosen. associating something as badass as The Jesus Lizard or Boris with Pitchfork?

Lou Reed - Metal Machine Music

I laughed  n_u

Zidon's Essential Albums v0.01

Beeps, Bloops & Ambient Muzak
Brian Eno - Another Green World
Tangerine Dream - Stratosfear
Boards of Canada - Geogaddi
Kashiwa Daisuke - Program Music I
Aphex Twin - drukQs

Pretentious Progressive Prock
King Crimson - In the Court of the Crimson King
Yes - Close to the Edge
Van der Graaf Generator - Pawn Hearts
Camel - Mirage
Amon Düül II - Yeti

The absolute essentials are the first album in each category. And I'll think of more lllllllllllllllllllater. n_n

def. My Bloody Valentine - Loveless so you can get the reference in FF7
and btw, how is Portishead - Dummy in Pitchfork-core but Tricky - Maxinquaye isn't even though they are in the same tier in my own opinion?

falling through a field - black moth super rainbow
sung tongs - animal collective
way with words - adverse

if you actually listen to any of these and you enjoy them i would suggest more. i feel like these are three really good accessible albums though

Weezer - The Blue Album
Red Hot Chili Peppers - Californication
Flaming Lips - The Soft Bulletin
Gorillaz - Demon Days
The Clash - London Calling

i dunno, i don't really consider them similar enough to take one over the other, personally. i do like RATM's debut album a lot, though. or at least like 3/4 of it.

they r simil;ar I think because they both have the same funk/punk/hip hop influences, were popular in the early 90s, and from the same "scene" in Los Angeles /.. except to me RHCP is like the Cities 97 "acoustic sunset" drivin home from work in your SUV version

Pitchfork-core was a joke. There's a lot of things that pitchfork hates on there like The Mars Volta.

Fungus Amongus/S.C.I.E.N.C.E.-era Incubus is better than both RHCP and Rage.

Yeah I said it.

strongly disagree

I'm okay with this

i only listen to electronic-era radiohead, not the guitar driven radiohead.
amnesiac is a b-side "album"
etc. etc.

i prefer their later material over their earlier, and i prefer The Bends over Pablo Honey as far as "alternative rock Radiohead" goes, before they started getting proggy

but yeah my favorite is In Rainbows

Quote from: Kaz on February 04, 2012, 12:30:44 PM
strongly disagree

I know I was joking there aren't any good radio head albums lmao

You guys are doing it wrong. We should be recommending entry level albums to Nyerp since he doesn't listen to much music.

So yeah stuff like:

Radiohead - The Bends
Weezer - Pinkerton
Modest Mouse - The Moon and Antarctica

etc.

I would suggest Good News For People Who Love Bad News over The Moon And Antarctica, and The Blue Album over Pinkerton, as far as being "entry-level" goes.
