supersoul

I would just like to advise (as I believe everyone who quoted them on this page would) those who aren't familiar with them to take it easy with the Butthole. It's not that someone comes from the Afterhours and easily embraces the Surfers. Let's not forget that after just a couple of EPs they were dropped by none other than Jello Biafra's label for being too extreme! I think this album was their most concrete "attempt" at commercialization. After the provocative covers featuring the classic malnourished belly, the flatulence and burps infesting a debauched blues track like "Lady Sniff," the reference to equine vaginas in "Rembrandt Pussyhorse," and the preposterous abortions to locusts by the mad entomologist in "Locust Abortion Technician," they come out with a more "malleable" album where you can hear the child screaming, "Dad, don't touch my penis!" They associate the syringe with the song "Roky" and mock the anti-smoking campaign with "Johnny Smoke." Besides, if you take a look at the linked video, you'll get an idea of how unrestrained the Butthole are. Not recommended for everyone, but for those unfamiliar with them, it's best to start here.

I found the review excellent, the problem (at least for me) with the Galaxie is that if you hear just one album, you shout "miracle," but if you listen to all three, it tends to wear you out. Regarding the Velvet cover, I completely agree about the lack of tension that was instead typical of Lou Reed and his band. The Cowboy Junkies have a somewhat similar effect with their version of "Sweet Jane."

Among the de-reviewers I enjoy the most (noting the balanced evaluation of the album beyond the review which seems to be quite flirtatious with it), they are in the same condition as psychopomps.

If you think it's worth the highest marks, what can I say? You should definitely give them that, but for me, it's their weakest album among those I've heard. If you notice, "Spiral Staircase" is even attributed to Sweet Okay Supersister, just to distinguish it from the previous production under the name Supersister.

de gustibus paloz, for me it’s exactly the opposite, I find them tremendously boring in the style of this record, even after Dirty Three, but then they became a real band all around especially with Horse in the sky. Clearly, de gustibus.

Sorry, but giving a 5 to this album, regardless of personal taste, is a glaring gamble. The Dutch hippies had given their best with the Canterbury style of their early records, and these are the leftovers organized by flautist Sacha, who had a musical crush on Daevid Allen.

Well! In Lewis Tollani's latest review, it seems you mentioned that post-rock has more to offer than Silver Mt. Zion. Now I see you give them top marks for an album that, in my opinion, is inferior to 13 Blues... Should I be honest? By the end of the review, I gave my lucky scratch to the jewels, you never know...

Wow blacchedogghe, this is a revelation worthy of the telenovela "Chiquito & Paquito" by the great Olcese & Margiotta!

More than progressive rock, it's progressive folk, sometimes very close to Comus (also for the occasionally terrifying use of the flute), which, however, have more power and dynamics. I remember a nice folk-blues piece with a harmonica-flute duet, Travelling shoes. The five goes to the names mentioned by oleeinar.

Someone explain to this piece of idiot how the scoring system works, otherwise he’s wasting valuable time that could be spent on his lumberjack activities.
