Would have to say Gish is at least an 8. Definitely agree with the rest of Breeg's list. Haven't heard must past Z so no comment.

I would agree with BC's past comments that maybe the instrumentation outshines the songwriting on Gish. It's probably the most virtuosic SP album as far as lead guitar and drumming goes. The outro to Bury Me is astounding. Lyrically he hadn't really developed his style yet. It's kind of psychedelic psychobabble as BC put it in one interview, but it works.

MTAE is a solid 2 but I agree with list otherwise. I’d make MCIS a 10 and MSOTS high than TFE due to the title song being the best thing I think he’s written post SP1

Gish is a 9 too. Every riff on that one is a riff I wish I wrote.

I've seen NIN live and sorry but the Shiny tour was far better. Less bro protein shakes and growth hormones going on.

Zeitgeist and Oceania I can listen through and enjoy many of the tracks. Monuments is cohesive enough and I can listen through. I cannot get through this one. Except for Silvery Sometimes, the other stuff is so kitschy.

only halfway through it but it seems they're *trying* to emulate the Machina vibe more than anything else. i'll see how i feel after i'm done though. i do like Travels >.<

this is the best of anything post 2000. hands down. half the tracks are grating, but the other half of it is actually enjoyable. it doesn't capture the magic of the golden era, but the mellower music in general is good, and definitely not physically painful like Oceania and MTAE, which had 1-2 good songs apiece. I'm actually pleasantly surprised. Now if I could just get the evil words Billy has said in the past few years out of my head, I might actually truly like half of it.
Good tracks: Silvery Sometimes, Travels, Alienation, With Sympathy He just can't be a rocker without being cringey anymore, but I'm good with spacey mellow stuff. The vocals have seriously improved, too. I'm politely ignoring the lyrics. |
