i don't know how much i like threads that are all "let's all speculate about how this large and amorphously-defined group appreciates culture!"i mean any "rock fan" who has louvin brothers, public enemy, red headed stranger, SAW vol 2., and a love supreme in their collections probably listens to a bunch of music. i mean, what are the rock albums in this hypothetical fan's collection? are they any less canonical? these are all just really famous albums that lots of people like

OTM but I'm really enjoying the idea that AC/DC fans typically rate Substrata as their token 'environmental/field recording ambient' album.

is that Louvin' Brothers album really a genuine country classic
this album is 100% solid fucking country gold, the Louvins are giants of the genre
― Οὖτις, Wednesday, 3 September 2014 21:03 (nine years ago) link
but I guess it is not the token country album typically rated by silly 90s techno fans

I still wanna know Tuomas' sole rock album, if he has one. Appetite For Destruction? Bat Out of Hell? The Eagles Greatest Hits?

taking sides: who should be first up against the wall - rock fans who have token albums of other genres vs fans of non-rock who dont like any rock albums

I actually bought the Anthology of American Folk Music for my dad one Christmas! You can still fart on him tho, lord knows I would

Anthology of American folk remains on our wall untouched by rockists or folkies.

i guess some of these are considered entryways into their genres and that's why you see them on college campuses? if you really want to do a siqq burn on hipsters tho make sure to include heart of the congos.

you are an asshole if this is the only country album in your collection. I bet you can't even name 3 Hank Williams songs.
