Crazy how /mu/ hates the Beatles but won't stop sucking off The Beach Boys, an actual unironic Boy Band.

Crazy how the Beatles were never capable of making anything that sounds as beautiful as Sloop John B and instead focused their attention on being a bunch of dumb faggots instead KWAB

They're both good and were major influences on each other, so liking just one is hypocritical.
on another note,>>129917260
good for you. it's one of the best pop albums of all time, so enjoy your time with it.

gonna tap in for the first time, do i go mono or stereo
>>
>>129920602
Stereo, but use good speakers if you have them. Even your TV speakers will do I believe. It clicked once I heard it on speakers as opposed to headphones.
>>
>>129920602
Mono has better harmonies, which are The Beach Boys excel in
>>
>>129917906
you know the beach boys didnt write Sloop john B, right?

Yeah, I slept on this record too because I just assumed “oh it’s probably more fun fun under the sun boomer bullshit”. Finally listened to it a few months ago and it blew my mind. The gorgeous, lush arrangements, the melancholic and introspective mood, the consistency front to back. I can see why this album was a big step forward for pop music, and it mogs everything the Beatles ever made. Also set the stage and inspired the Beatles to up their production game

Yeah. Their previous albums were all cool but there's only so much you can do with that subject matter. By the time I got to All Summer Long I really started to understand Brian's fatigue.

Brian did a decent amount of acid

>>129922094
Don't have to write a song to do an incredible cover of it. The Beatles also couldn't write anything as good as God Only Knows ether. Does this help you? Your favorite boyband sucks.

the beatles music has always felt insincere to me
>>
Good on you OP, theres nothing remotely like it even from the band themself so enjoy it because we'll never get something like it again, saying this made me think of Sufjan Stevens Illinois which is far different but does have that big layered orchestral sound, Zombies Odyssey and Oracle is one of the rare closer attempts and parts of Paris 1919 remind me of it

>>129917885
/mu/ doesn't hate the beatles, and even in the supposed past there were always holdout fans on here

>>129917906
what kind of music pleb are you to pick the weakest track from Pet Sounds to mark their superiority, if you want pop say Wouldn't it Be Nice, if you want emotion say I Just Wasn't Made for These Times, if you want layers pick anything but the pop tunes or instrumentals
>>
>>129933600
I think you're right to a degree, I'd start listing songs like Here There Everywhere, In My Life, For No One but but even those being emotional tracks theres a slight heir of sincerity to even those. You Won't See Me one of my faves that one is pretty damn close to fully sincere
>>
>>129933788
i think sloop john b is great. the arrangement is fantastic, brian creates many layers from just 4 chords.

tfw you learn Beach Boys did shoegaze before anyone else

>>129922363
its easy to not realize that the BB dropped the surfer schtick in the mid 60s, a lot of people even music fans don't realize that
>>
>>129933842
>even music fans
it's sad really. and very odd. their no 1 songs aren't the surfing or the car songs. i get around is a gangster song, help me rhonda is about a guy having a one night stand to forget a girl, good vibrations is a psychedelic hippie song. only kokomo can fit into the beach boy stereotype, and even then that was 20 years later

you guys ever hear this?

This is probably the most ahead of its time song ever it sounds like it was released in 2013

>>129920602
Stereo if you want the most evocative experience, mono if you're a sound purist.
>>
>>129930545
good album but not a chance is it superior to Pet Sounds the most cohesive thing they ever put out with the orchestral wall of sound perfected.
>>
THE MONO MIX SUCKS ASS COMPARED TO THE STEREO
>>
I'm trying but it's just not clicking bros
>>129934293
Will try the stereo mix next
>>
>>129933834
its not a bad song but the rest of the album is superior for different reasons, either better more sincere and emotional songs, better walls of sound and layering, better hooks, etc Wouldn't it Be Nice is absolutely all around the better fun pop tune
>>
>>129934424
of course but still. no other artist than brian wilson could make so much out of a 4 chord folk song
>>
>>129934383
maybe you are not a sensitive young man
>>
>>129934457
how about any song on Astral Weeks? pretty sure some of those have 4 or less chords. Great album very full in sound aswell.
>>
>>129930545
Let's be honest here, only All I Wanna Do and Forever are good tracks on Sunflower.
>>
>>129917899
>>129917906
The name of the band is The Beach BOYS ffs it doesn't gets any more Boy Band than that, just like other Boy Bands like The Backstreet Boys, Boyzone, etc.

>BUBUBUBUT- BUT they play their own instruments!!!
So did Hanson.
>>
>>129917260
Beach Boys Today is better.

>>129934570
No, Our Sweet Love and Cool, Cool Water are 10/10 tracks.

Like half of the songs are great, but the rest is obvious filler and secondary to the main meat of the album
>>
>>129934293
wtf are you talking about? old stereo mixes from the 60s are shite.
>>
>>129930545
I love this album so much, but it doesnt feel better than Surfs up or Today!

Deirdre should NOT have made the tracklisting
>>
>>129942876
THERE'S NO STEREO MIX OF PET SOUNDS FROM THE 60'S, THE FIRST ONE WAS MADE IN THE 90'S BUT I AM TALKING ABOUT THE 2016 STEREO REMASTER. THAT ONE IS FANTASTIC
