Alice in Chains' Dirt V. Soundgarden's Badmotorfinger

FlamingGlobes · 03-23-2020, 12:18 PM

Look, shut up. I'm trapped inside and Cathy Wheel isn't here to make this sort of thread, so vote, mock, whatever.

FlamingGlobes · 03-23-2020, 12:20 PM

I fully expect all two of you to participate by day's end.

This is fucking tough, but I have more emotional connection to Dirt.

Yeah, I think I have to give Dirt the edge, too. Just a perfect album from front to back. So well played, perfectly produced and executed and has a great flow from track to track.

Badmotorfinger is sludgy riffy goodness but wears on after a while and gets a little samey in the back half.

The Chronic, on the other hand, has way too many skits. Skits are the worst.

So, I'm gonna go with Sweet Oblivion.

The follow-up to "mock," called "point and laugh at groin" was much better.

Cool As Ice Cream · 03-23-2020, 01:32 PM

i'd like to change my vote.

Cool As Ice Cream · 03-23-2020, 01:32 PM

mods?

smashingjj · 03-23-2020, 01:32 PM

QOTSA's Rated R is basically Siamese Dream. The more I listen to both, the less I hear any difference at all.

Joey Goldberg · 03-23-2020, 05:58 PM

Dirt & Chronic

Badmoto ain't even my favorite Garden album

Joey Goldberg · 03-23-2020, 05:58 PM

that would be this one

smashingjj · 03-23-2020, 06:20 PM

must spread rep

an true masterpiece, an overlooked classic, a very badly kept garden

LaBelle · 03-23-2020, 06:40 PM

Even though it still has a few bad songs in it, Dirt has some killer tracks so it gets my vote.

Which ones do you consider bad?

LaBelle · 03-23-2020, 07:14 PM

Sickman, Junkhead, God Smack, Untitled and Hate To Feel all feel like b-sides to me.

FlamingGlobes · 03-23-2020, 07:20 PM

You know, it's like I don't even know you anymore.

FlamingGlobes · 03-23-2020, 07:20 PM

Tho I wouldn't blame anyone who was tired of hearing Rooster.

LaBelle · 03-23-2020, 07:42 PM

What can I say, I always thought Alice in Chains was kind of overrated.

Joey Goldberg · 03-23-2020, 07:42 PM

YEA HEEEE AIN'T GONNA DIIIIIIEEEE

Hey, don't shame fuzzy's fashion sense.

redbreegull · 03-23-2020, 11:10 PM

Badmotorfinger definitely. I haven't listened to Dirt in a long time, but I don't think it has aged as well

redbreegull · 03-23-2020, 11:11 PM

I want to stand with you on a mountain

ninsp · 03-23-2020, 11:26 PM

I dunno. Them Bones and Would? still rip. I don't really hear anything dated there.
