What is a song or album you strongly disliked at first but then ended up doing a 180 and started to really like?

Mike Lynch

I just finished Astral Weeks and liked alot about it. Though I'm not usually into artists whose songs are repetitive. Elvis Costello's album When I Was Cruel has many songs that are repetitive, but it's a stronger album. Especially the title track and Tart.

I would highly recommend giving a listen to "New Friends" by Pinegrove. The rest of their library is excellent as well, but this is a favorite: https://open.spotify.com/track/1knWXZZ8u5uslOtIB2gX3w?si=VfufuYOxRQ6E5D_6RWim8A

Ha I knew the track length was going to be brought up last week week with Opeth... So I figured I would drop this epic funeral dirge for the community playlist. Bell Witch - Mirror Reaper they made and dedicated this to there fallen drummer and yes it's all one song https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=4DKUgXlotbI

Vulfpeck posted a picture with victor Wooten the other day, and I’ve never been more excited for a potential collaboration. Wooten is my vote for the GOAT bassist; who is your band of GOATs? Also here’s my favorite Béla Fleck and the Flecktones song if you wanna talk about the best instrument: the banjo https://open.spotify.com/track/4w5G2CRpsv14IcRfYxPw5e?si=2XpXZtTTQkS8eThXMrH4cQ

Unfortunately, it seems all of my favorite drummers have been passing away lately. Neil Peart being one of the more prolific to recently pass. A big one for me that didn't get a lot of press though was Sean Reinert. He was the drummer for Death for the Human album, but the big one for me was that he was the drummer for Cynic. Very experimental progressive metal band that was incredibly influential for a lot of people. Since his untimely passing I've been going through their discography again and when they reunited in 2008 they released what may be one of my all time favorite albums "Traced in Air". Imagine Pink Floyd making a metal album and you'll get the vibe that Traced in Air brings. This is the first track "Space for this" after the really trippy intro track, absolutely amazing musicianship: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rZUHSXcpqDA

Guys, be honest. How often did you have to hide your “Enema of the State” CD from your parents? That album cover is just begging for parents to get upset.

What is your feeling about musical theater? It’s my not so guilty pleasure to listen to musical soundtracks even if I haven’t seen the show. Song: Being Alive by Stephen Sondheim

Not a question but a memory, if you don't mind. 'All the Small Things' was the first mp3 I ever got on my PC. I listened it on repeat for hours, marveling at the technology. I had a big library of MIDI 'songs' but this was something else. Yes, I also had CDs but this was cutting edge for me at the time :) Good memories... Looking forward to your discussion! I would like to recommend Frank Turner's "Glory Hallelujah" as my community pick. I love the message of the song and it works so well with the music. An anthem if there ever was one. Cheers, Paweł

Hey all! So, it’s no mystery that the late-80s and early-90s kids tend to handle stressful or serious situations in a more sarcastic way, especially apparent with the emergence of meme culture; But listening to Enema of the State again had me thinking: Do you think bands like Blink-182 and the bands and music scene that seemed to emerge along with them are more the product of the times, or do you think that the times and culture of the millennial generation emerged and blew up because of them and the surrounding music scene? It can definitely be a combination of the two, but I just wanted your opinion on the subject. Thanks!! Ps: i know you’re no stranger to the twin cities hip hop scene, but my recommendation for this week is Been Afraid by P.O.S. From the album Never Better.
