it's just proto penis music
If “6 7” was an album
>>129448223fpbp. i've never seen an album so thoroughly debunked.
start with trying to understand the accessible songs>Moonlight in Vermont (this could've been a single)>Veteran's Day Poppy>Pachuco Cadaver (personal fave 2nd half is god tier)>Sugar and Spikes>Sweet Sweet Bulbs (outstanding riff)>When Big Joan Sets Upthose songs are not that high of a listener level to grasp what they're doing with their eclectic layering and melodic motifs, after you get those the rest of the album is just a few steps further (besdes a few songs that are mediocre imo, and Idc for the vocal only tracks)if you struggle with the songs I linked you need to listen to more music, the riffing on those tracks are amazing at parts and some of it is the best creative blues riffing you'll ever hear
>>129447958Wtf is "proto penis music"?

>>129449465and one more thing and this is fun even if you like the album, listen to the instrumental mix on youtube, Cap's vocals are great, hes one of the finest blues vocalists of al time (probably the greatest white blues man), but once you take out his admittedly distracting vocals whats left is still so dense and complex that it stands on its legs alone, you can really try to zero in on what the harmony and dissonance achieves throughout and discern the moments that are more instantly digestible verse the ones that are very experimental and intriguing
>proto penis music>I don't get it
>>129447958>it' just proto penis musicLol wait until you hear picrelhttps://youtu.be/XvpdiIaZZLg?
>>129448223>>129447958its the skibidi toilet of 1969>>129449465when big joan sets up,his hands are too small
>>129449465if it takes three minutes to 'explain the joke', it's not a good joke.good rule of thumb.and why 'concept art' generally sucks.
>>129447958there's nothing to get, it's quirky music for the quirky "holds up spork" le random xD that infested this board when /mu/-core was established.
It finally clicked but there's now way I'm listening to 75 minutes of this
>>129447958it's the Rolling Stones deconstructed
>>129451352>>129447958it's not "concept art" or "bad on purpose", it's just avant-garde jazz but the jazz is replaced with blues rockit's not that far away from some of Zappa's stufflisten to Safe as Milk if it's too much for you, that one is much more tame but still good
Temporal context has to be the most overlooked part of what makes music work
>>129451395no, it's clearly bad on purpose.there's no way nigga didn't know his disjointed rhythms and harsh vocals were directly contrary to what people liked in pop/rock.I mean if deconstructing popular junk is your bag, go for it, but it's usually 'too much work' for most in the audience who just want to hear music performed well in a genre they learned to like.
>>129451528so anything that isn't mass-pleasing pop-rock is bad on purpose?if no one liked harsh vocals and discordant music, we wouldn't have genres like death metal
>>129451565actually, if beefheart was performing death metal, he'd probably sing it in a Shirley temple voice.going against the grain of what is expected was his shtick.
Nobody who listens to Captain Beefheart is cucking anyone. It's for guys who spazz out at Gamestop and worship Elon Musk. Shit is very barely fucking listenable and mostly just tries too hard to be faux deep and contrarian and wraps around to just being obvious that a retard wrote it. We're floating different ways which ig is fine but yk it still sucks ig. But I've been talking to other people too so idk. It just is.
It sounds like if Tom Waits was having an autistic temper tantrum backwards.
>>129447958Music for people whose favorite movie is Freddy Got Fingered
>>129449761that one is a fucking Synclavier classicZappa was too funny
>>129454377it doesn't try to be faux deepa retard did write it and everyone knows it, even they knewthe difference between this particular album written by a retard and all the other albums written by retards is that this one managed to get a bunch of competent musicians to actually play the retarded written music to completion and it was mixed properly, and thus it stands as quite an unique album
basic dada still filters /mu/ to this dayread tzara kids
lmao look at the true nature of the fucking 'zappa appreciators'. bunch of fucking midwit pseud niggers who think they're better because their idol sampled a washing machine with blues riffs played bad on purpose. fuck you and your jew nosed bozo trying to be a rockstar or some shit
>>129457783>jewlalalawith a garlic aromathat can rival tacomaa nasty little jewish princesslalala
>>129457059Finally, someone understands the idea of dadaism by which this album achieved best. I'm not a huge fan of the record, but I can respect it's unique influence.
