inb4 a lot of old ass albums

not that one

>200 years

Whatever it was, it wasn't an album m8

beethoven symphony no 9

this

johann pachelbel's canon in d

that's not from the past 200 years and it's not very influential

James Ferraro - Far Side Virtual

>that's not from the past 200 years
That's true, it was-

>and it's not very influential
Faggot.

in particular furtwangler's 1951 recording of it

it's just played at weddings all the time, it didn't have much of an impact on music in general

That is objectively wrong. After Jean-François Paillard recorded it in 1968, it became hugely popular and several pop, rock, and metal songs in the following decades basically stole its chord progression.

Shostakovich - Symphony no. 7

Ah yes, that feted classic, the Lemmings intro.

...

the first one

what's technically impressive about this album? i love and enjoy it to death but it was always for its cultural relevance, i won't pretend to be more educated than i am

that's funny. i don't actually enjoy the album that much, but i do think it's quite creative and can see why it's considered a classic

I can tell this will be one of the defining albums for the rest of this century, soul/hip-hop/art-pop will be making a major comeback thanks to pic related. Most likely going to be the most influential album in musical history.

kek

thats not art angle of grime

Reported for being underage

That or this.

1967 was a good year.

How is this even a question?

How is this even a question?

Either this is really poor bait or you're underage.

The art music bits, the drones and stuff

kek

...

You'll Cowards Don't Even Smoke Crack will be the most influential album in the last 200 years after I decimate the world population and destroy all art except for that one album.

the soundtrack for springbreakers

This.

Sgt. Pepper's. If only because we'll never have someone as big as The Beatles again, and they were huge during a period of mass media.

The fucks wrong with you

whats wrong with you?? the beatles are the most influential band of all time, literally every human born before 2000 not in a shit hole country has heard them in some fashion, and even most people born after then have too.

Either Pet Sounds or White Light/White Heat. Most everything can be pretty directly traced to these two albums. Albums that broke us out of singles cycle of the music industry where the complete album was more of an afterthought and were used as a vessel to sell songs.

>the beatles are the most influential band of all time
Try again, bud

>Albums that broke us out of singles cycle of the music industry where the complete album was more of an afterthought and were used as a vessel to sell songs.
that was the beatles mate

No, they are. Who would you consider more influential than them?

And these other bands. It was a whole movement. That being said while the Beatles clearly had the larger reach, I feel like Pet Sounds resonated more with those that were playing music. Really blew their minds. Same goes for White Light/White Heat. That album didn't do numbers but it made a lasting impression on every single person that was in the know.

The velvet underground, chuck berry, the doors, pink floyd, frank zappa

...

>the doors

Albums haven't even been around that long dipshit.

Well they did inspire Keiji Haino to pursue music instead of theatre, so there's that. Thank The Doors for the birth of Japanoise.

1977 karajan fan myself

How so?

So they influenced something insignificant?

WOW AMAZING

I mean if we're gonna go with pure influence on the way music was played afterwards probably Sargent Pepper. It expanded what pop music could be

>Either Pet Sounds or White Light/White Heat. Most everything can be pretty directly traced to these two albums. Albums that broke us out of singles cycle of the music industry where the complete album was more of an afterthought and were used as a vessel to sell songs
Except both WLWH and Pet Sound had singles.

Still influence.

And I wouldn't say that Japanoise is completely insignificant. Just not as significant.

We hit a stage of memedevelopment where even Merzbow is a fairly recognized thing in the mainstream.

The Beatles had more influence than that, so it's irrelevant

I'll give you 2 of those

Ya sure.
Only Velvet Underground rival The Beatles in terms of rock band influence on modern music imo

>Velvet Underground
How so? They only influenced punk rock.

Punk rock was the birth of so many damn bands. Plus it influenced all the post-punk and post-punk revival trash, so the influence was immense.

>so the influence was immense.
Not as much as The beatles. VU only influenced the niches, while The Beatles more the mainstream AND the niches.

I wouldn't say that The Strokes for example are the niches. Initially, maybe but with their widespread acclaim, they really went all out.

>not pet sounds
Faggot.

There melodicism and sense of harmony was heavily influenced by The Beatles, so I'm not sure your point.

I'm not saying that The Beatles were not influential

I'm saying that VU got into tons of stuff just like The Beatles did. Maybe not on the scale, but they're the closest next thing.

>I'm saying that VU got into tons of stuff just like The Beatles did
See I know you *want* VU to be way up there, but that doesn't mean they are.

Probably not but they're in the same tier in terms of rock music.

If one is very influential, and the other only somewhat moderately influential, then no, that would be a different tier.

Could you show me tracks where The Beatles rolled into punk-rock territory?

More specifically post-punk actually, sorry bout that.

To put it in old Sup Forums terms
Beatles
POWER GAP
TVU
POWER GAP
Everyone else

you are objectively wrong

How is that relevant?

riotfest.org/2017/06/beatles-actually-punk-investigation/

Because in my opinion the band needs to display something that will influence the artists in the future. Here specifically I'm wondering about tracing down the roots of post-punk.
Yep, this is a good point.

>Because in my opinion the band needs to display something that will influence the artists in the future
Or rather, future bands need only to show the inherited musical genes from their forefathers

The Beatles need not sound like punk; rather, punk only needs to sound like The Beatles.

This is true I guess. Alright, I come to an agreement with you.

This

Michael Jackson's Thriller?

Ur still wrong tho

College dropout

How so?

Yes but they were plucked from a larger album. They weren't made as standalones to be packaged with 10 other songs.

This isn't even remotely true. Basically everything that exists outside the top 40 can be traced back to TVU.

If that's your rubric, The Beatles had already been doing that.
Nah.

I'm aware of this. I just find Pet Sounds and WL/WH to be more influential to people who made music/started bands.

>I'm aware of this.
Obviously not, because you wouldn't have brought up irrelevance sin the first place
>I just find Pet Sounds and WL/WH to be more influential to people who made music/started bands.
All bands, or just ones you care about?

See

I can kind of see where your comming from, but I think it's more of a staple of this generations music, rather than a defining one.

ITT: Sup Forumstants think their favorite pop bands are seriously THE MOST influential thing of the last 200 years

>favorite pop bands
No I haven't mentioned the olivia tremor control

Try again afggot

The point is that the most influential music in the past 200 years is almost undeniably American folk music, not an album

>The point is
That you got btfo

It's clearly this

I ONCE KNEW A

bls no bully

this album is nothing remotely new and i say that as someone that considers this one of my favorites from this year
listen to moar music

Probably the first one

Probably Robert Johnson or Son House or one of them old Delta Blues folks. Since all modern rock, jazz, country and folk wouldn't exist without the blues.

Honestly that's kinda a really subjective question and it depends on the period you personally think is the most influential to today.
Personally Pet Sounds I find transformed modern pop into something more.

>Personally Pet Sounds I find transformed modern pop into something more.
Weird way to spell Sgt Pepper

I know there are a lot of teenagers on this board but spelling Rubber Soul shouldn't be that hard

The Planets By Holst

>used as the inspiration for numerous film scores.
>covers a wide range of the human experience.
>well liked by most.
