i think only time can make something a classic... but as far as drukqs and most of afx's stuff, it will be looked at as ahead of it's time. so, yes it is a classic by rules of paradox.

Drukqs is fuking awsome its been slated so much because (its not pushing the envelope or some such shit) but fuck what to do u want instead an album of white noise run through a small childs anus and rewired into a massive can to make something new and originall. (sorry got carried away) anyhow im glad lots of people have voted for it I was the first VOTER and i voted for it yay me

it is an epic undertaking to listen to it start to finish and i admit i often skip about to different songs and sometimes avoid particular tracks. In this sense it is like a kind of volume of music where it can be accsessed and enjoyed differently to a an album you just put in and hit play. Listening to drukqs with shuffle on is a hell of a thing.

Drukqs is the best compilation ever made, alright?
The best album is probably, oh i don't know, "The Joshua Tree" by U2 or something like that.

It definetly is a classic already. I listened to it today, the first time in about 5 months. And I was so amazed by the tracks, all the details an still I found new details and melodies in the tracks, such an amazing album.. 10+

Yes it is. I reckon in 10 years time people will consider it his best work (of that released so far).

Drukqs has too much filler. Great at times, piss poor at others.

Never 'poor', but the too-much-filler and shorter-would-be-better arguments have some merits.
I really really like drukqs.
Including the 'fillers'.
Think. If the 'fillers weren't there we wouldn't have heard them!!
Therefore....

how about just using the discog thread for drukqs? I'm loving drukqs too, but I think it would be better for all if you used the green thread... those are more likely to have good discussion than people going off at you for bumping old threads.

No. Saw II is amazing.

drukQs is a double edged sword.
It's a lovely collection of songs. The fact that it has a kind of scope of Richard's most recent works that cross many different genres is a realyl great one.
But this CD just does seem like a compilation, no where near as a 'whole' effort like RDJ, ...i care because you do or any other of his albums. I think those are Richard's greatest achievements.

I didn't feel like it flowed very well personally.. (ICBYD)
one of my favourites though,.. I just usually skip through the tracks in whichever way I feel like it though...

Yeah you're right. I suppose i like that one more because the tracks sound similar. On drukQs everything is so sparse.

it's a classic, and in the context of global consciousness, it's certainly still fresh and innovative, as well.
