That's a good one. SftB is terribly underrated compared to their more recent output and their very early output. A rare album that really takes you to another place. It's a great pairing with Blood Meridian.

incorrect, but not as incorrect as
>comparing a masterpiece
anon, I do not care whether or not you like House of Leaves, but the fact is that it has the same exact general vibe as Soundtracks. if you do not understand this, you are either deaf and don't understand the album or dyslexic and don't understand the book

>> No.12870695

>>12870381
This seems like an easy answer but I really dont think the book is that playful with it's structure and is actually operating with clear solemnity

I'd better compare it to A Love Supereme by Coltrane, especially with the opening and endings of book and album together.

If you like his lyrics it is worth reading. It is an interesting work and I enjoy his style but it is far from a feel good book. People love to reduce it down to just trying to be shocking and disgusting but that is not really his style.
