Slint - Spiderland

It's honestly the only album I've never gotten tired of, something about it just never wears out.

I used to be obsessed with this album as a teen, but I got really tired of it because it encapsulates the rough feeling of DUDE ANXIETY AND INSECURITY LMAO

that's a very retarded generalization, but I can't really listen to it nowadays because I burnt out on it. But I'm really glad it exists and I'll probably muster up the patience to listen to it in a decade or so.

Great instrumental work, poor vocal mixing.

Looks like people are giving too much importance to this album's lyrics and 'feel'. It leads me to think it's not a very good album.

>that's a very retarded generalization

You're right, that's pretty retarded, but if that is when you listened to it I can understand why it'd feel that way. Personally listened to this way beyond my teens and while tracks like "Don, Aman" are relatable, those aspects aren't really the main pull for me at all. It's all in the music, and of course the short stories greatly inform the instrumentals, especially on "Breadcrumb Trail", but the fact that they are little short stories, instead of personal anecdotes helps from it feeling like an angsty teen record, it's timeless.

Have you listened to the 2014 remaster? It's pretty subtle but they improved the vocal mixing on it. It's obviously intentional, though, to have them slightly buried in the mix but not so much so that I'd ever call it bad, definitely not on the remaster at least.

It's just good music, user. It isn't a collection of sob stories for you to feel at, at all.

It doesn't burn out easily. It always registers for me.

The thing about nostalgia and stuff, I feel it's a big part of it. I turn 25 in a few days and I feel like I refuse to let go of my "kid" phase so this album always feels right for me. Maybe like said I'll eventually grow out it of it but I'm sure I would still appreciate it for many other reasons. For example I feel this is the perfect post-rock album.

>'feel'
If you sincerely think atmosphere in music is bad you're a retard
