Best agreeement: Elliott Smith, though I still think his S/T or U/T, whatever you wanna call it, is his best. He doesn't really have a bad album though.

Worstest disagreement: Barrett Floyd, just for Jugband Blues, Pow R. Toc H., and Interstellar Overdrive mainly.

I may have enjoyed Barrett a bit more if I wasn't exposed to Rogers when I started listening to Pink Floyd.

Elliott Smith's self titled is pretty damn good. I also don't think any of his albums are bad. New Moon is probably the only one I can think of that is potentially hit and miss. But that's not Elliott's fault considering the album is posthumous.

Karen is the only acceptable female vocalist.

Serious shoes to fill for the rest of them.

  • Studio production is out of this world.
  • His entire discography consists of metal, and easy listening rock ambiance.
  • Released two albums in the same year (Ghost & Deconstruction), two different genres, both absolutely phenomenal.
  • One of the most underrated vocalist / guitarists / growlers at the moment.
  • Every album is top notch. And going from his first to his last, they just get better and better.
  • He rocked the skullet. Didn't look half bad.

I absolutely can not stand his production. It's godawful. He uses so much studio ****ery it sounds as hollow and cheap as a Ross Robinson nu-metal album.

Well KI, you made a good thread. I agree with on Pink Floyd. They are not that great of a band anyway. I mean this is one of the rock bands that are nothing special. Ac/Dc made some great music though they had their pitfalls. I listened to one Ac/Dc back in 2008, it was classic material. I think Ac/Dc will make great music for years to come. I love this band. The only problem is that their lead singer is a Janis Joplin wannabe. I am referring to John Anderson. He tries to copy Joplin too much.

Obviously we disagree. I think his production exceeds a lot of production quality from a number of bands. His Deconstruction album was one of the best metal albums released in my opinion.

There was nobody by the name of John Anderson in ACDC. What are you talking about?

I must have meant Bon Scott. Regardless he is a Janis Joplin wannabe

How on earth does Bon Scott sound anything like Janis Joplin?

  • This artist was recommended to me because I like Elliott Smith. Um... 0_o
  • I started off listening to The Age of Adz, I was thoroughly disappointed. I was expecting something a bit more calm and easy to the ears, and all I heard was a lot of overdone electro pop.
  • I'm sure he would probably be good live, but I was really hoping to hear more of an acoustic indie artist who uses nothing but his guitar and vocals. Instead it was just vocals and noise.

One song that really seemed to just drag on, was this one:

You listened to the wrong album, that one is his experimental album and it stands completely apart from his others. While that one is electro pop pretty much all of his other stuff is very akin to Elliott Smith(though nowhere near as good in my opinion).
