music 03/04/24 - 03/08/24

The Cranberries — No Need to Argue (1994), To the Faithful Departed (1996), Bury the Hatchet (1999), Wake Up and Smell the Coffee (2001)

for some reason, i had assumed that their debut album was the only one worth listening to (altho i knew that "Zombie" is one of their biggest hits). i was, of course, sorely mistaken. i still need to finish listening to the rest of their discography, but if what i've heard so far is any indication, their sound and the quality of their music is very consistent. i really liked Everybody Else Is Doing It, So Why Can't We?, so of course i liked all of this as well.

idk if i just need to do a few more listens to become more familiar with their entire body of work, but apparently No Need to Argue is their best-selling album—i don't see it, the 2 that stand out to me most are Everybody Else Is Doing It, So Why Can't We? and To the Faithful Departed. the former is their best imo and is the most characteristic of the band's identity. the latter shows that they have some versatility. in particular, the track "Salvation" really surprised me. it's shockingly noisy, punk, and energetic... for a Cranberries song, that is. different album, but "Zombie" is an outlier as well (it's grunge supposedly, no wonder why i don't care for it, idk why it's such a hit aside from the political messaging).

Cocteau Twins — Four-Calendar Café (1993)

good but not as good as Heaven or Las Vegas, probably

Polvo — Cor-Crane Secret (1992), Celebrate the New Dark Age (1994), S/T (1995), Exploded Drawing (1996), Shapes (1997), In Prism (2009), Siberia (2013)

i loved all of this a lot. my top 3 Polvo projects are Today's Active Lifestyles, Celebrate the New Dark Age, and Exploded Drawing, in that order. idk why it took me so long to listen to the rest of their discography considering how much i enjoyed Today's Active Lifestyles. easily a top favorite band for me. technical noise rock with an ethnic swing, need i say more?

The Cure — Faith (1981), The Head on the Door (1985)

these were the last 2 Cure albums i had yet to listen to. actually i think i'd listened to The Head on the Door before but idr. Faith is considered to be one of The Cure's best albums, but idk why, i didn't think much of it. same for The Head on the Door, except for "In Between Days", which is an awesome song. since it's the intro, you may as well just listen that first track then turn it off.

Lifelover — Pulver (2006), Erotik (2007), Konkurs (2008), Sjukdom (2011), Dekadens (2009)

in the past i've tried and failed several times to get into Lifelover. i was never ready for it because i didn't know anything about metal or how to listen to it. this time it finally clicked for me. i read that the idea behind this band is that it's "accessible" black metal because it incorporates melodic pop-like elements. i must confess i am a normie, and so i like their earlier projects better than their later ones because they seemed to get less pop/more metal over time. Pulver is by far my favorite, i loved it. i really like the vocalist (name: Kim Carlsson, i think), the way he screams and moans so emotionally it's almost erotic (or should i say... erotik...) and it makes me blush. it sounds like he's in pain, no wonder it's called dsbm.

i also read that some people are annoyed by the songwriting/structure of their songs. i can see that. sometimes it kinda seems like the band is just slapping together a bunch of disjointed musical movements at random. like they combined snippets from 5 different songs into one franken-song. this is how i used to feel when i listened to math rock before my brain had developed enough to appreciate it.

Cherubs — Heroin Man (1994)

i had big expectations going into this one because i read a bunch of reviews where people spoke very passionately and with such drama about how ear-splittingly intense and heavy and grating this album is. people were really acting like this is so noisy you can only stand to listen to it once in your life and never again. well i was a little disappointed on that front because to me this was very easy to listen to, not at all challenging, not too harsh or abrasive. nonetheless i liked it a lot. the only thing i disliked is the singer's voice, sometimes it's alright but mostly it's so fucking annoying.

and i read that it's some kind of sludge or sludge-adjacent genre. to me it was more like punk—especially in the lyricism, for the most part i couldn't really understand what the vocalist was saying, but it was still clearly apparent that the songwriting was very simplistic and juvenile, for example much of it is just repeating/screaming the song title over and over... not that it makes a difference to me because i like both kinds of music. but yeah.

Television — Marquee Moon (1977)

so like 10yrs ago i knew someone on a forum whose username was Marquee Moony. i never even thought to think about what it might mean, but it always sounded kind of funny to me. i guess it was a reference to this album. i wish it hadn't taken me so long to discover this album, but it's ok because i know i wouldn't have been able to appreciate it back then. it kinda reminds me of The Velvet Underground or The Beatles in that it's pretty normal by today's standards but is very experimental, noisy, and impressively progressive for the 90s.

Rodan — Rusty (1994)

i feel very lucky to have found this from a random spotify recommendation. i only listened once so far so i need to listen at least a million more times, but i really liked it. idk what happened exactly but i think this band only ever released 1 album because all the band members died so i'm kind of scared i just inherited some kind of curse.
