Why so mean?
I never insulted your music taste (which I share) yet you bite back like I've made a joke at your expense.
I thought this place was a little mature than that.
And this is coming from someone that's probably younger than you.
I apologize if I sounded mean...It don't wan't to make you mad and I have nothing against you.
My bad.
I just detest Trout Mask Replica and Pure Guava, sooooo overrated albums when it comes to wierdness!

more like a bad joke. For me it gets more weird when the artist is for real!

What makes you think Ween and Captain Beefheart aren't for real? Fool, you think you have access to the artist's personal thoughts and motivations?

I surely don't have access to the artist's personal thoughts and motivations, but I can't feel them at all, and I can't say that I think Ween are weird at all in my world.
"Reggaejunkiejew! Pumpin' 4 The Man! Flies On My Dick!!! Touch My Tooter! huhuhuh "Hey Fat Boy (Asshole)" that's some seriously weeeeeird tunes man!!!!"
Compare these tracks and play Pure Guava to someone stoned and see the reaction compared to drukqs and geogaddi...Pure Guava would make a retarded stoner or a 10 year old giggle at best, when tracks like "Opening The Mouth", Gwely Mernans, A Is To B As B Is To C and "Gwarek2" will make them go "wtf!!! this is so weird its scary dude, turn this shit off!!! im trippin badly

"

whatever

you guys let your imaginations run away with you or something. i never got weirded out listening to geogaddi. yes, it's bizarre, but it's not emotionally arrestingly bizarre.
i'd put just about anything by Throbbing Gristle on the weird albums list.

I do have to agree with this entirely.
The first song I heard on the album was Good Friday.
Good way to start it off.

Ok, yeah, but the best I think are:
A sky for shoeing horses under
Exegesis
This is genius shit.

On another note:
Lou Reed - Metal Machine Music

Well Archie I agree with you on Pure Guava.
I only like post Chocolate and Cheese Ween where they actually write songs instead of noisey weird experiments.
But I've been getting into Trout Mask Replica lately and I think it's good.
On the other hand Cupz never said that the album had to be good per say, just strange.

Also how could I forget Boredom's Pop Tatari and Chocolate Synthensizer?
Both of those albums are just messed up, man.

"noisey weird experiments"?? Are you deaf, or just incredibly narrow minded?
Also, Archrival, I completely agree, humor has no place in music or life, and anyone who laughs or finds things funny is a retard.

Don't see it as wierd at all personally but do feel I have to declare my love for this album too! Agree with you on Exegesis but really loving Gnashville too.

I agree about Drukqs, it's great but also very strange.
I have to add Vivian Stanshall's Sir Henry At Rawlinson End. Insane spoken word genius with very bizarre musical interludes. Or possibly outerludes.
I've been reading a book about the history of the Atomic Bomb. Apparently some Federal Civil Defence Agency people thought it would be a good idea to release a spoken word album called The Complacent American. It seems it mostly consists of a man, vapourised by a Russian missile attack, who is now regretting not building a bomb shelter as he watches from heaven.
Aha... here it is
Ah bless
Strrrraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaange...

Neither, I phased what I meant to say wrong.
I meant to say I just don't like it.
You like things, and you don't like other things.
Edit; plus I like a few songs on Pure Guava like Big Jilm, Poop Ship Destroyer, Pumpin 4 The Man, Sarah, Springtheme...
Actually since you've got me listening to it again, I've found that I like it more than I did last time.
I guess I could thank you.

early pink floyd
confield and untilted (draft and quaristice really bring out their hip hop influence tho so it seems more normal to me)
selected ambient works 2 is weird if you haven't gotten used to all the tracks, the first 2-3 times listening to it are a treat

Yep. Although I once listened to it around 7am, having not slept and still a bit out of my face, and found it absolutely terrifying. I was so scared I had to switch it off and phone my sister. Shiver me timbers.
