01.30.16 | 89 is really out of place here. |
YetAnotherBrick
01.30.16 | tried to be objective with the "greatest" thing, i.e. some of these aren't 5s for me personally. and yeah of course i'd prolly put others here on a different day, but i think a good amount would be here all the time |
YetAnotherBrick
01.30.16 | @CL0VER yeah i figured someone would say that, but idk man, it's one of the best albums of its kind imo |
torts
01.30.16 | log off |
Cygnatti
01.30.16 | not point in being objective whatsoever, just list what albums you dig the most are. |
YetAnotherBrick
01.30.16 | i didn't wanna just list my 5s tho haha |
anarchistfish
01.30.16 | listening to 4 right now lol
list needs burial - untrue |
jtswope
01.30.16 | m/ for 45 |
anarchistfish
01.30.16 | this isn't rly an objective list
just a mixture of sputnik and dad rock tastes |
ZombicidalMan
01.30.16 | this is a sputlist if I ever saw one... and a lot of my picks are here. |
ArsMoriendi
01.30.16 | We're Only in It for the Money, California, Rain Dogs, Daydream Nation and Amnesiac? Sweet list.
List reeks of my taste :) |
jtswope
01.30.16 | There's literally no such thing as an objective best albums list. Ranking albums in any way is inherently subjective. |
ArsMoriendi
01.30.16 | @jtswope: I was going to say that when I read the list title, but this has We're Only in It for the Money, so I'm not complaining. |
YetAnotherBrick
01.30.16 | "list needs burial - untrue"
yeah i thought of that, close call man. it'd def be in the top 120
"Ranking albums in any way is inherently subjective."
alright man thanks |
jtswope
01.30.16 | Agreed Ars. I wasn't directing that at the list title though.
I think it's totally fine that this is titled Greatest Albums Ever Made, but to me that translates as my favorites, not some objective statement. |
YetAnotherBrick
01.30.16 | you may not be able to completely depart from your own opinions, but i think it's still fair to call it an attempt at objectivity |
DoctorDoom
01.30.16 | Some real bangers here. |
theBoneyKing
01.30.16 | Good shit here |
jtswope
01.30.16 | Especially 45 yeah. |
AlexKzillion
01.30.16 | 89 needs a review tbh, to bad I suck at writing them. |
YetAnotherBrick
01.30.16 | ^ leave it to me, man. i've been thinking about it for a while now actually haha |
jtswope
01.30.16 | "you may not be able to completely depart from your own opinions, but i think it's still fair to call it an attempt at objectivity"
Wasn't a shot at you dude. This is an awesome list. Just see people throw the word objective around all the time incorrectly. |
torts
01.30.16 | there's no "attempt" at objectivity. there's a reason why it's called objectivity lmao |
jtswope
01.30.16 | I just think people "attempting to depart from their own opinions" to make a greatest albums list is stupid. Just list your favorites since to you those are the best. Otherwise we get the same greatest albums list from people including what everyone tells them they should list. Thankfully that's not the case with this one. |
ArsMoriendi
01.30.16 | That's why no one should ever attempt at objectivity when discussing art. It's borderline ludicrous. Unless you're discussing music theory or something.
@jtswope: God It's like you're taking the words directly out of my mouth. Thank you. |
altertide0
01.30.16 | awesome list |
jtswope
01.30.16 | "That's why no one should ever attempt at objectivity when discussing art. It's borderline ludicrous. Unless you're discussing music theory or something."
You're singing music to my ears Ars. |
YetAnotherBrick
01.30.16 | "there's no "attempt" at objectivity."
thanks for the lesson man, i'll be sure to remember that for future sputnik lists |
altertide0
01.30.16 | evaluating music based on more than just personal taste is a good thing btw (is it objective though? probably not), don't listen to the dudes above. |
jtswope
01.30.16 | ^ Yeah right because having your own original thoughts are a bad thing. |
altertide0
01.30.16 | ^ yeah right because that's definitely what I said |
jtswope
01.30.16 | What's the point of including albums you don't care about as much, but that other people recognize as "important" though? |
torts
01.30.16 | "thanks for the lesson man, i'll be sure to remember that for future sputnik lists"
once again, log the fuck off |
Cygnatti
01.30.16 | that's definitely not what altertide was saying.
he's saying that you should be aware of the possible flaws or whatever that your favorite albums/song have, and or why people don't like it as much as you/or plainly don't like it.
i.e. you can adore something despite probably being pretty bad or not really all that good, when approached in different context. you can like something more than others, but that doesn't necessarily mean that you think it's better.
i like the color blue more than red, but that doesn't make blue better than red imo. |
jtswope
01.30.16 | But flaws are subjective. As is something being pretty bad.
|
Cygnatti
01.30.16 | dude
"(is it objective? probably not)" |
altertide0
01.30.16 | Cygnatti +1 |
YetAnotherBrick
01.30.16 | "you can like something more than others, but that doesn't necessarily mean that you think it's better."
exactly |
trve
01.30.16 | pretty average and non-disagreeable list so gj being objective |
YetAnotherBrick
01.30.16 | well i'm not gonna load it up with a bunch of noise, drone and musique concrete just to be disagreeable. also, the first comment on here was someone disagreeing with one of my choices. but thank you haha |
trve
01.30.16 | no vegetable orchestra no list thats what they say |
YetAnotherBrick
01.30.16 | hahaha totally forgot about that shit. i never actually listened to it but i remember seeing it on a rym list a while ago, seemed pretty intriguing |
Yotimi
01.30.16 | Mostly great list here |
Yotimi

zakalwe

zakalwe

trve

Gleam
01.31.16 | Great list, but The Glow pt. 2 by The Microphones should be in it. |
Avagantamos
01.31.16 | many excellent picks. jamming 17 |
MistaCrave
01.31.16 | You know, believe it or not, I disagree with this |
YetAnotherBrick
01.31.16 | "Gave up on 17"
interesting reaction to an album like that. what don't you dig about it? and yes 89 is wonderful
"The Glow pt. 2 by The Microphones should be in it."
yes you could def make a case for that

YetAnotherBrick
01.31.16 | "you didnt miss anything brick "
