BOC Horoscope (or whatever)

Something i've noticed in the community; what's said about your favorite BOC LP album could also be said about "you".

MHTRTC:
Pros: Innocence, optimistic, stands out, trying/bringing something "new" to the table, an "introduction"
Cons: naïve, doesn't really know what its doing

Geogaddi:
Pros: Suggestive, in-your-face, helps with "the self", more "animal", can "bounce off" well, yin-yang (you're either the yin or the yang)
Cons: people get the wrong idea/a little hard to understand, can be "scary", because of "scary" people don't always want to listen

The Campfire Headphase:
Pros: gives you your space, a positive/optimistic feeling, helps with "environment", more domesticated, an incredible sense of calm/tranquility
Cons: quiet, people find it "boring" and "forgettable", a little "shy" around the edges

Tomorrow's Harvest:
Pros: realism, a blessing in disguise, helps with "others", has a good idea of "what's going on right now"
Cons: chaotic, accepting to futility, "seen" as pessimistic, incredibly difficult to understand

feel free to toss in some two cents. None of this is definitive, just what i've taken away from a combination of reviews/my own experiences with the LPs/analyzing people (from my perspective) on some of their favorite and least favorite albums

I seem to relate to all of the "Cons" but none of the "Pros".

You can't be a yin without your yang

I think I need some clarification as to what the "pros" of Geogaddi mean.

I possibly give too much space, think it borders on ignoring sometimes. I understand domesticated and positive!

"Boring" through repetition is how (if anything) I would apply myself to that word.

Too deep guys too deep, think like a fortune cookie. It only comes true if you hold onto it

I've almost grown out of Geogaddi and fully transitioned into Tomorrow's Harvest but it's come at a heavy cost. It is so hard not to feel hopeless at times. Geogaddi was a battle, but Tomorrow is a war.

There's always a light at the end of the proverbial tunnel, even if it's dim and the tunnel is terrifying and reallyyy long
