cool, Rollingstone has a 50 coolest albums list on their site... I love these... I wonder if any Aphex made the list... probably not, cause Rollingstone sucks ass!!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah i would be very surprised to see aphex on such a list |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
lol I hope that stone quits rolling so we get onto something better like Rollingboulder |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Massive Attack is in at number 8... with Protection... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i thought i heard that rollinstone gave mad props on SAW2 |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh yeah, Rollinstone has praised basically every Aphex album except Drukqs... the reviews for all his other albums are good reviews... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Steely Dan in at number 13 with Countdown to Ecstasy!!! :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Bjork in at 16 with Vespertine!!!! :) heh, I'm doing the play by play... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Classics is on that list! Hahahahahha... That's my LEAST favorite Aphex, though. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
keep 'em comin! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
heh, they have some sorry ass albums on this list... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'm telling you, Classics is near the bottom of the fucking list. RDJ actually got on there!!! Lost of crap albums on there, Rollingstone is a retarded little outfit... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes look at that... Classics is number 48... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
heh, The Strokes are number 49... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Rollingstone is biased |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
but why classics? You'd think something like SAW85-92... ah well, I'm not gonna try to understand Rollingstone... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah, I know... Classics isn't his coolest... I'd think it would be the sleek and sexy RDJ Album... Rollingstone makes no sense. Rambling kings of gibberish. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Joy Division's "Unknown Pleasures" is #24. I still hate Rolling Stone but that's a pretty cool thing. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ae on rollinstone? (pshyeah i wish...) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I would like to see RS do a cover on Ae ;) Wishing wishing wishing |
||||||||
|

Classics's got the classics..all the stuff I used to hear in the clubs before SAW came out and Aphex became a bit of celeb..that was the stuff that the dj's prized and guarded with their lives and was impossible to get a hold of unless you had a swiss bank account (I was in the states then)... and thanks to Classics I finally had all the stuff I danced long nites away to, in my greay little palms..you wont believe the buzz...down and dirty hardcore underground shit..luv it..luv it..luv it |

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I don't see no Ae :( |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
who would've thought that rollingstone would one day include aphex on a top 50 list?! is aphex getting that commercial? or is rollingtone more openminded? maybe both. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
aphex is getting that commercial. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I only have 5 out of 50 of these albums... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well Rollingstone is crap yes, but they do praise Aphex Twin... besides the 1 star review for Drukqs, all the other Aphex releaases they've reviewed have been good reviews... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I don't know about those being the coolest 50, but most of 'em arn't too bad. Some shoulden't be on there because they are just too damn new. The Strokes? c'mon at least wait a year before calling it one of the coolest albums (unless of course it's a 'coolest albums of the year' list.) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Wtf is 'cool' about an album? Why are all these albums 'cool'? Who decided that this is 'cool', and these albums fall under it? And why is there no Rick Astley in there????? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, Rick Astley... that guy can dance dammit!!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
not a bad list, nice to see Velvet Underground at no 1. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I don´t think any Afx album should´ve been on there. But that´s me |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Thats a fucked up list me thinks!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the list could be a bit better... but hey , thanks for sharing |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
In what sense cool? ...and where oh where is Trout Mask Replica by Capt. Beefheart? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah classics is number 48, bjork vespertine is number 16 i believe, and most of the rest of the list is chet. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh nevermind i didnt see the list was posted,,,hehe |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes! that is a fucked up list, i totally agree sid. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I just went through the new issue, and that list. This just re-assures my choice to not renew my subscription to Rolling Stone when this one runs out. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
BOOYA! I own twelve of these albums. I am only 24% cool! I demand a recount! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
this list is just name-dropping... to show how "cool" they are, which isn't very cool! Classics is not a very good choice for coolest Aphex, they probably have just heard of Digeradoo, and Joy division's Closer is better than Unknown Pleasures... VU's White light/White heat was probably easily the most uncommercial record released at that time, and that is fucking cool, but their first album has oozing with cool too, and lots of better songs... have you seen the lists that Spin have been putting out, seems like every other month, they had a most current "essential" list this month ... lists probably sell magazines, but this is getting silly on both magazines part. and silly is probably too nice a word... |
