all of these were released within a span of just 44 days in 1991btw if you wanna listen to TEN, find the Redux version, the original sounds like shit in comparison
>>128238029and all of these suckedyou're saying it as if it was something unique and special, it wasn'tgrow up
>>128238029Is there any reason to use cassettes over CD or vinyl?
>>128238055literally none whatsoever, there are only drawbacks
>>128238055nta but I just like how they sound.
>>128238029thank you reddit
>>128238100Isn't the audio quality noticeably worse than CD or vinyl though (assuming it's the same master)?
>>128238051Ywnbaw
>>128238029>metalgay>pearlfag>gunsncocks>redhotdicks>soundgarden>nirvirgina
>>128238223Ok now this is based
>>128238153it really depends on the tape and also to an outsized extent on the maintenance of your deck. I have Black Sabbath tapes from 1998 iirc that sound as good as any pressing I've heard.
>>128238232Neat, how much does a decent cassette deck cost nowadays? Feel like I should be able to get one for pretty cheap.
>>128238223damn epic bro, how long you spend crafting this post
>>128238051holy zoomer cope
1991 was the best year in music, period. we will never ever have a year like that again.
sorry, no idea. my Yamaha deck has served me well for 15+ years so I haven't been looking into any alternatives. I don't think it'll be very expensive though unless you want top of the line gear.
>>128238055no, they existed because you couldn't make your own CDs and CD players weren't portable yet, they became obsolete when the release of the CD-R and the CD Walkman
>>128238418>>128238330
>>128238029lol Cuckgau basically panned all of these outside Nevermind
>>128238418>>128238428Word. Thanks, cassettanon.
Ten redux is better? I grew up listening to the original in my household I can't imagine s different mix being preferred my dad's a PJ fanatic>>1282380514 of those albums are gold
>>128238429who the FUCK gives a flying shit on what this talentless hack babbles about
>>128238223Kek my friends used to say my name as>Dantgay
>>128238404I'm compelled to say 69/70 or one of the last years of the 70s
>>128238055Today? Not really, unless you just wanna be an analog nerd.In the 80s/90s? They were a lot cheaper than CDs, and before CDs obviously they had portability on vinyl. Also customisability. Mixtapes were basically the original version of playlists.
>>128238429Of course he did, critics saw all of them outside Nevermind as lame radio friendly blues arena rock slop.
>>128238055>>128238536Also you could easily record songs on the radio or at concerts.
Metallica - MetallicaNirvana - NevermindGuns n' Roses - Use Your IllusionRed Hot Chili Peppers - Blood Sugar Sex MagikPearl Jam - TenU2 - Achtung BabySoundgarden - Badmotorfinger REM - Out of TimeMichael Jackson - DangerousOzzy Osbourne - No More TearsSkid Row - Slave to the GrindA Tribe Called Quest - The Low End TheoryMassive Attack - Blue LinesSepultura - ArisePrimus - Sailing the Seas of Cheese Primal Scream - Screamadelica just insane the amount of cultural impact packed in a single year. what went so right?
>>1282384042001 was better.
>>128238628There was also Emotions and Spellbound but we don't talk about those albums.
>>128238420MD existed shortly after the release of those albums and even if it didn't, portable CD players have been a thing since the mid 80s so long as you weren't a poverty-stricken bean-eater. They were $400 on release which, in 1985 or whenever they came out, is about equal to around $1200 of today's dollar.Nonetheless, it was surprisingly popular despite the ridiculously high pricetag.
>>128238330Apparently it's advised to only buy older players from reputable brands like Sony, JVC, Technics, Pioneer, etc. Anything new just uses the same chinese mechanism that isn't as good.
>>128238055It was the moat popular format at the time
>>128238051Fuck off, dude.
Death's Human and Paradise Lost's Gothic also came out this year. Also have no idea why people are avoiding saying Loveless.
>>128238100They sound like shit though
>>128238055Less likely to skipUsed to be a lot cheaper to record tapes than burn CDs and burning CDs used to be a lot cheaper than flash memory. Now it's the exact opposite.
>>128238153>>128239361Sound music sounds better with poor audio quality. Like garage rock.
>>128238055To put scotch tape over the hole and record over it
>>128238055They're the only analog format that you can easily record to yourself and their small size is nice. If you get Type IIs to record on they sound pretty good.
>>128238055tapes were brought back to into the current day as a novelty to extract money from those who buy into said novelty
>>128238628making up for how empty and worthless the previous year was
>>128238051>and all of these sucked
>>128238051fpbp
>>1282402921990 had Rust In Peace and Facelift. Beyond that though...
>>128240354>>128240292Heave or Las VegasViolatorRepeaterSeasons in the AbyssPainkillerReading, Writing and ArithmeticFrizzle Fry
Cowboys From Hell and Danzig II Lucifuge I guess.
yeah well 1990 had TYR by Black Sabbath
for me it's unquestionable presenceabsolutely fucking peak year for rap/indie/metal
>>128240354>>128240379>>128240449>>128240503Iced Earth by Iced Earth
>>128240503>Halloween Whitesnake
we talking about good albums from 1990?
>>128238680consumer minidiscs were nearly a decade after these albums came outportable CD players that didn't skip every time you moved a millimeter were 5 years awaywhy do zoomers always feel the need to chime in on shit they know nothing about?
>>128238029STOP THE FUCKING PRESSESnevermind is from 1991??
>>128240554little embarrassing you bring up that release when the actual release in 1991, in concordant with the OP, was vastly superior and arguably their best release
>Pablo Moggey (Pablo Mogged)This thread is absolvtely Mogged by Pablo Honey
>>128240917no disagreements here but i was riding the 1990 train
>>128240902what year did you think it was from?
>>1282411991996
>>128241199Solid 1994>>128243632N
>>128238029
>>128241199I always associate the year 1992 with Kurt since that was the year he got brutally raped by those black men one sizzling summer night
I thought Arise and Blood Sugar Sex Magik were older than that. I definitely though BSSM was a late 80s album.
>>128238051What are some examples of albums that don't suck?
>>128238029>august 12 - october 8>44 daysI see buttrock fans have trouble counting
>>128247189you're a fucking retard.
>>128247529You're the retard, it's 57 days including
>>128238051True. It's all just buttrock.>>128238055No.
