asp's classic albums # 59: sunny day real estate - lp2

atsonicpark · 01.08.2009, 03:13 PM

SUNNY DAY REAL ESTATE "LP2" / self-titled / "the pink album"
1995, Sub Pop

I just love this record with all my heart. I know it probably doesn't sound like a total mindblower or something completely different from the norm, which are the types of albums I usually try to post. It's just a really fucking great record. As much as I love "Diary" (which was pretty much the soundtrack to my middle school years), this one's darker, desolate, more unfocused, rambling, mumbling, lost... but in a good way. I dunno. An "Emo" (second-wave) masterpiece.

noisereductions · 01.08.2009, 03:25 PM

yes, emo. But before "Screaming Inidelities" came along and mucked the whole genre up.

yeah i see you point. the voice is pretty terrible. plus, they were basically a sdre ripoff band. i really like the band and sdre when i was sixteen though.

Derek · 01.08.2009, 03:31 PM

It's not.
