Johnny Cash's Ain't No Grave isn't bad if you don't mind his fragile sounding voice. Willie Nelson album maybe?

There's four Olde English albums on that list and they are all straight dogshit.

autre ne veut is the only one i have time for, really, & its still not as a good as 'last american hero' or 'dagger paths'. i mean i like the aesthetic that list is pushing forwards more than most ppl on ilm but its just so lazy & insular (lol) \
i have come around on the mark mcguire record though, & think its really fine
― forGet (Lamp), Tuesday, 21 December 2010 19:16 (thirteen years ago) link
also kinda disappointed that no1 seems to feel the really tremendous outer limits recordings lp on not not fun. sun araw is p w/e
― forGet (Lamp), Tuesday, 21 December 2010 19:17 (thirteen years ago) link
i mean, the laziness is what bothers me the most about it. Like, I love woozy synths and nostalgic keychanges as much as the next guy, but like put some fucking effort abd passion into it, you clowns. I know you're all of the "Nickelodeon Guts" generation and mom raised you all to be special little snowflakes but fuck
Of the Altered Zones aesthetic, I mainly enjoy with the Majuere/Zombi axis side of things, love Zola Jesus, like Nite Jewel, Emeralds too
