how many albums do this besides ummagumma?

has there ever actually been a double album that isn't a bloated, in-consistent train wreck?

The Wall

Tago Mago

this is one of the worst possible examples you could have used

the wall

Songs in the Key of Life

Low End Theory

Sheik Yerbouti

I was just gonna say Freak Out! and Uncle Meat

>muh The Wall is bad
maybe learn to form your own opinions instead of agreeing with Sup Forums's shitty hivemind?

These albums are Reddit as fuck, holy shit. What happened to this board?

i dislike the wall because i genuinely believe it to be a bad album. it's an incredibly inconsistent record that's entirely too full of itself. it's the album that killed pink floyd.
when i was first making my way through floyd's discography in high school, i was genuinely shocked when i got to the wall. sure, for quite awhile the band's albums were a lot less adventurous than they used to be (they certainly weren't ballsy enough to release an album like ummagumma after they became a stoner favorite), but the wall was the first album that felt like a genuine step backward for the band. the plane began falling out of the sky and inevitably crashed with the final cut. the gilmour-era shlock was the funeral. i thought this years ago and still believe it today. if you see anything of value in the wall it's quite obvious you're going through your dadrock phase and haven't listened to nearly enough music to know better. but hey, keep telling yourself that anyone who doesn't find this bullshit redeemable is just an elitist hipster.
there's plenty of mouthbreathing retards who will always turn up the radio when young lust comes on, so at least you'll be in good company.

I've seen people posting Mellon Collie since forver
If you want to say "these albums suck", just say it, pussy

>it's a double album, but it's easy to tell it's only because the band wanted to make a double album and really this could've been boiled down to a really good EP

Only good post in this thread.

There's a difference between something being Reddit and something being just plain bad.
For example:
This is Reddit.
This is just plain bad.

The Dance Of The Moon And The Sun

London Calling is incredibly consistent and solid, and there isn't a bad track on it. Maybe a couple of weak ones (I think "Four Horsemen" is bland), but still one of the best double albums ever.

The Wall is like the definition of an inconsistent and bloated album. I used to defend it, but there are too few strong melodic moments and concepts are explored in such a meandering, monotonous way over the course of 26 songs that it's an inexcusable waste of time. And the worst thing about The Wall is that you can't take out most of the songs because it's a concept album that relies heavily on that story being told. So you can't even cut it down to make it better. It's just irredeemably mediocre.

So good they had to split up afterwards

How much time did you spend researching every album that's liked on Reddit so you knew which albums you weren't allowed to like?

I didn't say I disliked every Reddit album.
But if you want to circlejerk over well-known rock albums that everyone's already aware of and likes, maybe Reddit is more your thing.
Like, wow, you like Melon Collie and the Infinite Sadness? Holy shit, you better not say that out loud! People are really gonna come after you for that one! Thank you for telling me your thoughts on Led Zeppelin, I'd never heard of them before! Wasn't sure if they were any good until you came into this thread and told me that this insanely popular band does, in fact, have some good material out there!
As much as I like to hate on kids who rely on Pitchfork or Fantano to have their "taste" spoonfed to them, at least they're putting SOME effort into discovering music. Go post a Led Zeppelin album cover to Reddit. Talk about how much of a ~le gem~ it is and get the fuck off my board. It's literally a site where people are rewarded for having incredibly agreeable opinions. You'll be welcomed there with open arms.

You're reacting to this in such a way where you're fueling the beast and making it more difficult to just talk about music in an earnest and sincere way, effectively shutting things down and categorising people based off of a vague affiliation with a place that discusses music in a way you find perfunctory. Calm the fuck down kid.

Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness has like one weak song

These are both prime examples of bloated albums.

...and fuck you too, faggot. You are by FAR the worst trip on this board, it's not even close. All those kids who have a raging hateboner for Friendo have truly misguided rage.
I don't give a single fuck about whatever conversation I'm stifling. I don't want any of these faggots to learn, I want them to leave and it's definitely time for you to do the same. I bet you felt really smart when you typed out the word "perfunctory", you fucking autist.
I want to be polarizing, it's not my job to try and teach some teenagers how to not be leeches. If even one kid stops posting here because of my reply, I've done my job.

here's a fucking triple album that isn't bloated or in-consistent

it has like 20 actually

you made a lot of sense until towards the end there when you started projecting your opinions as something everyone should follow. i like the wall, i think its good for a double album, that's pretty much all there is to it

Refute the point bro.

Wew, you really took the harppill didn't you?

>Refute the point bro.
I just think it's pretty bloated. It has some seriously amazing tracks but theres too much filler (Jimmy jazz, brand new Cadillac, the right profile, wrong em boyo, koka kola) for me to think it's any kind of masterpiece.

>album is ~35 minutes of non-stop good music with no filler

Those are all interesting genre pieces that are concise and effectively written, all adding to the moving, shifting nature of the album. I especially don't understand the dismissal of "Jimmy Jazz" and "The Right Profile". Those are fucking solid.

>You can't enjoy something I don't like
Nice.

Just because it's different from the other albums in their discography doesn't mean it's bad. You're just unwilling to accept change and experimentation, so stop acting high and mighty you pretentious twat.

To be fair, The Wall is not fucking experimental. Literally the most positive things I can say about it in totality is that it serves as a time capsule of '70s pop music and encapsulates the decade pretty well in terms of just showcasing all the genres that went through their rise and fall in that span of time. The rock opera, concept album (which Floyd helped popularise), disco, funk, prog, soft rock ballads, transparently political lyrics, the shift of ideology where people progressively became more bitter and cynical as the decade dragged on, and even references to the history of the band are all contained on this album. But outside of being like a vague history lesson it's not that compelling in its entirety. There are some great songs on there that deserve the radio play they received, but large swathes of the album are conceptually hollow shit that yearns for a time that Roger himself can not remember. No, nobody really remembers Vera Lynn, even though she has outlived two members of the band, and might outlive another before she's done. And the romanticism of Richard Wright's mental health decline (which was precipitated by Roger himself) adds a particularly tone-deaf and egotistical aspect of the album that feels hypocritical upon reflecting on who Pink is as a character created by Roger.

Like, when people think of how pretentious, self-serious, self-important, but ultimately vapid progressive rock as a genre is, they go back to the early '70s. But the wretched excesses and lost promise of the genre is best represented in no other album than The Wall. An album that postures so much while saying practically nothing about the relationship between the artist and the audience, or about the pressures of fame, or about the impact of war, or about maternal obsession. It's become impossible to take seriously because everything is presented with a complete lack of nuance or subtlety, and takes itself so seriously.

To say he can't accept experimentation is just showing that you didn't actually read his post before replying. His main gripe with it was that their was practically no experimentation at all.
And he's right. I like the album, but it's quite obvious that it was written with the intention of selling incredibly well and it has obvious radio singles.

Hush now, baby, don't you cry ;-)

its only a triple album because its on 3LPs? The length hardly justifies it as that.
