Agreed?

What's that Steven Segal album where he talks about Punani again

No.

Why not?

...

great argument

Listening to it for the first time right now.

>A SQUID EATING DOUGH IN A POLYETHYLENE BAG IS FAST AND BULBOUS

No you aren't, that's halfway in the album.

I didn't say I just started listening to it that very minute, I started listening to it before I saw the this thread.

>not realizing that means he doesn't have one and knows it

I could hear so many more sounds in this album after listening to this on LSD. Highly recommended.

is mu uncreative?

Go listen to Rock Bottom, user

Rock Bottom isn't that good though.

*holds up spork*

Fuck off Montiefag

You should finish the simpsons already matt

what makes Don Van Vliet a good artist in any medium and not just an egomaniacal cult-leader autist

I mean did you listen to the album?

He stole from black. So did elvis. So did lou. So did barrett. So did bolan. The power three of artfarq. All niggerslayer. And Still no recognition. I swear i will kill, lest this recognition hastensteps.

many times, the music and lyricism is nonsensical. the music itself sounds like a bunch of guitar licks created by someone who has no concept of musical theory and forced someone to play the bullshit he made ver batim. the lyrics are in the same criteria, it's essentially a pile of word salad pouring out from an autistic man, and people attempt to derive deeper meaning from the nonsensical lyrics. Don Van Vliet's music, scupltures, and drawings are all shit, but his personality resembles that of clueless, asperger-esque child due to his odd upbringing, so people eat that shit up.

The guitar licks are actually very coherent. Do you not listen to avantgarde music or something?

Do you beyond Captain Beefheart? I've listened to a good amount of John Cage. I find his works to have infinitely more meaning and prowess than anything I've ever heard by Don Van Vliet. Really, take a look at that man's work beyond just his music. I do not know how people value his physical art let alone his music after hearing him speak for more than 5 minutes.

Probably because they haven't done LSD

>I've listened to a good amount of John Cage.
Cage doesn't prepare you for Beefheart: what about Varese, Coleman, Antheil, and Webern?

Do you beyond TMR? They're a talented band, TMR was a purposeful deconstruction of rock.

Oh boy.
It's a novelty record guys.
That's about it. Other wise its a scam, a spook, a Rothko if you will. Which bares no substance yet you buy into it.

Let's remind ourselves that that Don was mentally ill, never had the discipline to learn an instrument himself and physically & mentally tortured his band. Not to mention, he kept all the money himself and was deeply paranoid when reporters would ask about his Trout Mask band and whether they got payed or not.

The drummer who transcribed all of Dons work was mentally & physically abused so much that he had a problem coping with the outside world after TMR and turned full Jesus freak. Too many acid spiking and beatings.
Don is a hack, most of his life is a fabricated lie and you take that to the bank.

Go out one night and play TMR to your friends, see if they don't look at you like a disgusting freak.
