what am i supposed to feel while listening to this?
>>129461590zoomers are dead inside from over saturation of media
>>129461593they can't comprehend art that isn't immediately hitting them with instant gratification, anything that is even slightly off kilter or weird is too much and their brains break.
>>129461601weird albums i kinda get by repeated listen but still didn't get this one
>>129461601ive also noticed that they have an inability to appreciate music from prior generations. When I picked up The Idiot on cd it was already 30 years old but i loved it nonetheless
>>129461613zoomer here, not really but there is stuff that sounds dated sure
What do you mean what are you supposed to feel. It's a really cool record that innovated the Joy Division post-punk sound. Has a lot of cool dark/gothic industrial sounds, there's some humor with the lyrics, there's an element of nihilism and sleaziness. Nightclubbing, China Girl, Funtime are iconic. And the last track is an absolute masterpiece
>>129461648i like what am i listening and it sounds good but i dont know what feeling it is trying to convey
>>129461659Again there's a carefree/nihilistic attitude to it since that's pretty much what Iggy Pop is in a nutshell. it's pretty much druggie music. This album was also made as he was trying to kick heroin by moving with David Bowie to Berlin away from LA so there's an element of darkness to it
>>129461590Ask Ian Curtis.
>>129461590Like you're listening to a masterpiece – Iggy's best lyrics set against some of Bowie's best melodies.
If you don't feel anything when you hear "IT'S IN THE WHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIITE OF MY EYES" then you are a lost cause
>>129461590Its a masterpiece
For me it's Iggy's based schizo rambling on Zombie Birdhouse
NYC at the turn of the decade. Future thinking yet also reminiscing disaster
>>129461613I mean every zoomer i know enjoys the beatles
>>129462101>NYC, turn of decade>1976, France. What are you smoking? :-)
>>129462185Any city really. I just live in the area
>>129462207Wut
>>129461590Stupid
>>129461593>>129461601>>129461613
>>129461590horny, cool, decadent, sharply flipping between deeply emotional and cold detachment, wanting love but being too driven by personal freedom (drugs) to commit.Dum Dum Boys is reminiscing about your old knucklehead friends who fucked their lives up too but didnt have a cool rich fren to bail them out with a ticket to berlin
I wish I could listen to The Idiot again. Bowie was at his peak at this point of his career
>>129462897>I wish I could listen to The Idiot again.........i mean you could
>>129462925Lol I meant for the first time again
mfw I've already been down the street of chance
