only shallow off loveless

Love Vigilantes from Low-life

>mfw another point corroborating Larks' to be KC's best album
The more I look at it, the more I like it

WELCOME TO THE JUNGLE WE'VE GOT FUN AND GAMES
WE'VE GOT EVERYTHING YOU WANT; HONEY WE KNOW THE NAMES

The opening track for The Normal Years by Built to Spill is really good.

THE BACKBONE

Godamn OP you opened and closed the thread in record time!!

ROUNDABOUT

Better than anything

Age of Consent

Disorder

...

Nice... youtube.com/watch?v=o1tj2zJ2Wvg

Just so I'm clear on what the joke is here, is the title track the opener? I thought it was the closer

SO YA
THOUGHT YA
MIGHT LIKE TOOOOO
GO TO THE SHOW

What about this?
youtube.com/watch?v=_WV3T_wphGY

i second this

Killshot is mindblowing

Joke?

Hotel California (the song) is the title track for the album, Hotel California.

Yea, this sets the mood perfectly for the rest of the album, expecially the destructive instrumental solo at the end.

Lust for Life

Cowboys from Hell youtube.com/watch?v=i97OkCXwotE

ON SIGHT

What is your favourite song in the full album?

Wouldn't It Be Nice

Hard choice, i go between Hold My Liquor and Guilt Trip for those melodies, and I'm In It for the over all aggressiveness. All three songs develop really well.

oh and black skinhead goes hard af.

I DECLARE I DON'T CARE NO MORE

>Hold My Liquor and Guilt Trip
Ok let me listen it..

oh youve not heard the album? lemme know what you think

>Guilt Trip

Is this about Kanye West...

>the first two minutes are literally just Tony Banks tuning the Mellotron
>still happens to be a 10/10, like the rest of the album

This

Also this

i'm surprised this hasn't been mentioned yet

There really isnt any correct answer besides this

Of course

Why is prog so based?

IT'S JUST A KISS AWAY

This is the first thing that came to mind, but idk. Tough question.

Oh my god hell yeah
Fucking classic
Goes without saying

THIS. No song has made me feel like Emily. When the tempo picks up and she's all:
>"Though all i knew of the rote universe were those Pleiades loosed in december // I promised you I'd set them to verse so I'd always remember."

15/10 moment. Might be my favorite moment of any song ever. It's so good.

all correct

This Is A Long Drive as well

...

...

yes

All respectable answers

the better choice

completely overshadows rest of the album

Piece of caaaaaaaaaaake. OoooOOoo.

...

...

The grandiosity of the first two tracks is almost unparalleled

First track, best track

Sauce plz

MINE I dropped my intro to an album I'm putting my heart into. It's the first song I've ever really made and I'd love if y'all gave it a listen and a share.!!!!

Black Dog

This song fucking destroy me

Good Kids Make Bad Grownups off The Doldrums, its a fucking amazing opening track

I honestly think that for what an opener is supposed to do, Prowler fills that job better than any other song I can think of. It makes you want to turn the album on again just to hear it, it's a fucking great song and it really makes you want to hear whatever else might be on the album.

Cmon, you're hearing it in your head already
>WALKIN' THROUGH THE CITY

>WHO WOULD BE A POOR MAN, A BEGGAR MAN, A THIEF?

I don't even know if it's one of the best songs ever or anything, but damn if it isn't a perfect opener.

Debaser

Definitely one of the greatest.

WELL IM A TUMBLR

Get a drink, have a good time now.

Welcome to paradise, paradise, paradise.

Maybe not GOAT, but still far up there: cosy, comfy, congenial.

best opener AND closer out of all albums imho

Sunbather.

...

This was what I was listening to when Trump won

...

i agree

i immediatly thought about this

...

Yes
Fuck off

...

that one is the best closer, user

yes

Xtal

Cipater

Does it count if there's only one song split in two?

Teeth Like God's Shoeshine () no doubt

or this

wait, I meant () this one

Worship is the best DP opening. Other pale in comparison.

fuck off

Get Got is solid, but Worship is far better. Stop being delusional, faggot.

Worship isn't even a DG song what are you talking about.

I meant Beware, fuck.

Beware is probably better than GBPGI but not Get Got desu
