Let’s discuss any and all music here. Got a new artist who’s rocking your boat that you want to talk about? Post a video! Found out about that unearthed Coltrane album that has the jazz freak in you losing your mind? Lay it out for us! Have a theory about what your favorite band might do for their next album? Let’s hear it! Anything and everything music-related goes here.
This week’s discussion prompt comes courtesy of The Avocado’s very own Pastyjournalist:
Albums that should have been “career-capping” albums
In Pastyjournalist’s words: “Whether it’s Sleater-Kinney’s The Woods, Jane’s Addiction’s Ritual de lo Habitual, or Jay-Z’s The Black Album, these albums were supposed to be the artist’s ‘final statement,’ and for the most part, they made the band’s status legendary. But…for whatever reason, the band/artist decided to come back, and, typically, the band’s legendary status took a bit of a hit, given they added albums that weren’t quite up to their previous efforts. (Not saying some of their additional albums were horrible, but to be truthful, the band/artist’s reputation would have been better served if they resisted the temptation to add more albums after their ‘final’ album).”
So…do you agree or disagree with any of those examples? And can you think of any examples of your own? Please feel free to let us know down below!
As always, any and all music-related posts are welcome. Have fun, and rock out with yr guac out!
