Algerian Goalkeeper, Monday, 11 April 2011 01:30 (fourteen years ago)

It's Rough

JacobSanders, Monday, 11 April 2011 02:06 (fourteen years ago)

i'd like to vote for prince alone in the studio, just cuz someone should, but it's got to be bathysphere.

i decided to go with bathysphere

Algerian Goalkeeper, Monday, 11 April 2011 14:21 (fourteen years ago)

I still prefer red apple falls though

Algerian Goalkeeper, Monday, 11 April 2011 18:36 (fourteen years ago)

i spy a runaway winner

Oh no! It's no good! (state of the world today), Tuesday, 12 April 2011 00:15 (fourteen years ago)

I had no idea Bathysphere was so well love by Smog fans. When the album came out I wasn't crazy about the song, but I like it alright now. For me It's Rough was the song that really affected me. Prince Alone in the Studio is probably second for me.

JacobSanders, Tuesday, 12 April 2011 01:15 (fourteen years ago)

so many good ones on here!

don't get how you could like red apple falls more than this album

very torn but It's Rough has gotta be the contender

still like The Doctor Came at Dawn better overall though, maybe that's just me

the tune is space, Tuesday, 12 April 2011 01:17 (fourteen years ago)

price alone. bathysphere bores me a bit, but i blame cat power for ruining it for me

barbara of seville (electricsound), Tuesday, 12 April 2011 01:30 (fourteen years ago)

sad bitter young smog vs wistful hopeful older smog?

JacobSanders, Tuesday, 12 April 2011 03:30 (fourteen years ago)

cosign that doctor came at dawn is better overall, but i listen to this one more.. 'bathysphere' still my favorite. i stopped paying attention after knock knock though!

daria-g, Tuesday, 12 April 2011 04:03 (fourteen years ago)

Red Apple Falls is better than Wild Love :-)

Can you keep up? (Cheetah), Tuesday, 12 April 2011 05:14 (fourteen years ago)

Let's see here, as a true Bill Calla-stan, I go:

A River Ain't Too Much To Love (possibly my favorite album of all time; slaughters the rest of his catalog)
Red Apple Falls
Supper
Dongs of Sevotion
Sometimes I Wish We Were an Eagle
Rain on Lens
Apocalypse
Wild Love
Knock Knock
Woke on a Whaleheart
Doctor Came at Dawn
[Early Junk]

If Accumulation: None counted, I'd put it between Red Apple Falls and Supper, tho

Can you keep up? (Cheetah), Tuesday, 12 April 2011 05:23 (fourteen years ago)

^ You forgot Julius Caesar. That + Kicking A Couple Around + Burning Kingdom. Best Smog.
I voted It's Rough

THE Alan Moulder?!? (Ówen P.), Tuesday, 12 April 2011 06:34 (fourteen years ago)

"[Early Junk]" ;-)

I'm gonna throw in one for Goldfish Bowl

Can you keep up? (Cheetah), Tuesday, 12 April 2011 06:36 (fourteen years ago)

this album has a special (& maybe a bit creepy) spot reserved in my brain. vacillating between Prince, Be Hit, & Bathysphere. also feeling a little bad about having no need for another Smog album despite relative quality.

fffv, Tuesday, 12 April 2011 06:41 (fourteen years ago)

oh you do need them

Oh no! It's no good! (state of the world today), Tuesday, 12 April 2011 13:47 (fourteen years ago)

I think I prefer red apple falls probably because it was the first i bought

Algerian Goalkeeper, Tuesday, 12 April 2011 17:39 (fourteen years ago)

Maybe you should have a drink, I don't know why you ever stopped anyway

JacobSanders, Tuesday, 12 April 2011 17:50 (fourteen years ago)

Me? stopped? I've never drank. I've never liked the taste.

Algerian Goalkeeper, Tuesday, 12 April 2011 17:51 (fourteen years ago)

Why on earth is "Doctor" rated so low on your rankings? That's one of my alltime faves (nb: I'm not a big Smog fan).

it's time for the fish in the perculator (Steve Shasta), Tuesday, 12 April 2011 17:52 (fourteen years ago)

Doctor Came at Dawn sits along side Red Apples Falls and Wild for me as Smog's Best. His newer albums kind of lost me after Supper.

LOL, AG I think you just pulled a Tuomas!

Future Debts Collector (Le Bateau Ivre), Tuesday, 12 April 2011 18:23 (fourteen years ago)

there's only one tuomas

Algerian Goalkeeper, Tuesday, 12 April 2011 18:29 (fourteen years ago)

That's what she said!

Future Debts Collector (Le Bateau Ivre), Tuesday, 12 April 2011 18:35 (fourteen years ago)

Maybe you should have a drink is from It's Rough!

JacobSanders, Tuesday, 12 April 2011 18:38 (fourteen years ago)

xxxxxpost

Doctor never really grabbed me for some reason! I do still like it, just a "lesser favorite" (11th place!). I tend to lean toward the lower-voice, higher-production value Bill; seems to just carry a weight that really nails me. (Though, Red Apple Falls has a nostalgic feeling for me; first one I heard/time-in-my-life kinda thing).

Can you keep up? (Cheetah), Tuesday, 12 April 2011 18:39 (fourteen years ago)

And a brilliant line at it xp

Future Debts Collector (Le Bateau Ivre), Tuesday, 12 April 2011 18:40 (fourteen years ago)

I am pleased at all the love for It's Rough itt

Number None, Tuesday, 12 April 2011 18:43 (fourteen years ago)

you like it rough?

Algerian Goalkeeper, Tuesday, 12 April 2011 18:50 (fourteen years ago)

That doesn't really work though does it?

Number None, Tuesday, 12 April 2011 19:41 (fourteen years ago)

well, no.

Algerian Goalkeeper, Wednesday, 13 April 2011 00:05 (fourteen years ago)

"Sleepy Joe" might be my vote, if only for the mention of chili.

International Waters, Wednesday, 13 April 2011 01:05 (fourteen years ago)

had a listen to both wild love & red apple falls last night and actually did enjoy wild love more

Algerian Goalkeeper, Wednesday, 13 April 2011 18:29 (fourteen years ago)

so i may change my mind on what i said earlier

Algerian Goalkeeper, Wednesday, 13 April 2011 23:54 (fourteen years ago)

A River Ain't Too Much To Love (possibly my favorite album of all time; slaughters the rest of his catalog)

winner of prize for wrongness

five gone cats from Boston (underrated aerosmith bootlegs I have owned), Wednesday, 13 April 2011 23:55 (fourteen years ago)

(not about it bein yr favorite obviously but "Eagle," "Dongs," and "Knock Knock" and probably "Red Apple Falls" are better)

five gone cats from Boston (underrated aerosmith bootlegs I have owned), Wednesday, 13 April 2011 23:56 (fourteen years ago)

"knock knock" is one of those albums where it seems like stans sort of underrate it a little and non-stans overrate a little, maybe? i mean it's totally great but it's place as his "poppiest" album steers the bigger fans away from it somehow. maybe it's a gateway drug, i dunno.

anyway, wild love.

we the_best (Clay), Thursday, 14 April 2011 00:14 (fourteen years ago)

It's a good album though, if it was a persons first album I could understand why they chose it much like me with red apple falls

Algerian Goalkeeper, Thursday, 14 April 2011 15:17 (fourteen years ago)

cant stop playing this one recently!

pfunkboy (Algerian Goalkeeper), Friday, 15 April 2011 23:38 (fourteen years ago)

I love me some Smog, but The Doctor Came At Dawn is a stinker.
