LIKE If you are against racism (omar little), Wednesday, 28 January 2015 20:46 (nine years ago) link

I didn't think there was a standout track on this but it's really solid front to back yeah

, Wednesday, 28 January 2015 20:47 (nine years ago) link

wasn't 100% on this but i thought 'going under' was a fantastic song

why you gotta be so rmde (NickB), Wednesday, 28 January 2015 20:48 (nine years ago) link

Didn't vote for it, but this is a very good album. "How Do You Know" was my favorite track. Love the cover art too.

Indexed, Wednesday, 28 January 2015 20:48 (nine years ago) link

"Drake Would Love Me," y'all.

HATED Scott Walker, until I heard Bish Bosch, which I ADORED. Therefore was expecting to ADORE Soused, but didn't particularly engage with it all.

mike t-diva, Wednesday, 28 January 2015 20:53 (nine years ago) link

...AT all, duh.

mike t-diva, Wednesday, 28 January 2015 20:54 (nine years ago) link

I'm gonna give K. Michelle a whirl based on this response (seriously)

RAP GAME SHANI DAVIS (Raymond Cummings), Wednesday, 28 January 2015 20:56 (nine years ago) link

As a listener who typically only digs into lyrics when they're really really good, I'm absolutely smitten with this album lyrically.

23 RICHARD DAWSON Nothing Important [497 points, 15 votes, 2 first place votes]

Johnny Fever, Wednesday, 28 January 2015 21:03 (nine years ago) link

my #1 and contender for all-time great status

listen
to
the
title
track

DJ Quit (imago), Wednesday, 28 January 2015 21:05 (nine years ago) link

aptly titled

diamonddave85​ (diamonddave85), Wednesday, 28 January 2015 21:06 (nine years ago) link

& read its lyrics

DJ Quit (imago), Wednesday, 28 January 2015 21:07 (nine years ago) link

seriously, read the lyrics to this album's longer tracks, especially the title track. read the lyrics while listening to the music. imagine a small, impossibly mice man howling them onstage accompanied only by a small, amplified nylon guitar.

DJ Quit (imago), Wednesday, 28 January 2015 21:09 (nine years ago) link

Dawson <3 <3 <3

emil.y, Wednesday, 28 January 2015 21:09 (nine years ago) link

Didn't hear this till the tracks poll came out, good stuff

Simon H., Wednesday, 28 January 2015 21:10 (nine years ago) link

prefer the lyrics to the album's shorter tracks tbh

wins, Wednesday, 28 January 2015 21:10 (nine years ago) link

apt cliche: 'practically a religious experience'

DJ Quit (imago), Wednesday, 28 January 2015 21:11 (nine years ago) link

#263 on PnJ. I see Whiney voted for it.

Fastnbulbous, Wednesday, 28 January 2015 21:14 (nine years ago) link

Good stuff, voted for this.

so not gonna häpna (seandalai), Wednesday, 28 January 2015 21:15 (nine years ago) link

Richard Dawson is terrible and unlistenable as far as I'm concerned.

"Go pet your dog" is the name of my dog (DJP), Wednesday, 28 January 2015 21:16 (nine years ago) link

once and only once i can honestly say lj otm
assuming mice means nice

groundless round (La Lechera), Wednesday, 28 January 2015 21:18 (nine years ago) link

I like macrocosm type writing and film-making, but not in music. I will keep my criticism short before I dig myself into a hole here, cos I really like imago!

xelab, Wednesday, 28 January 2015 21:20 (nine years ago) link

I had Dawson at #5. Was only able to listen to it via Spotify so no listening on the commute which would probably have pushed it higher.

Couldn't get through this :|

monster_xero, Wednesday, 28 January 2015 21:21 (nine years ago) link

the word 'cunt'
richard dawson

so proud to be british rn lol

DJ Quit (imago), Wednesday, 28 January 2015 21:22 (nine years ago) link

I couldn't connect with Richard Dawson in any way, either, and I was unable to listen to any whole Swans song, but I voted for Gazelle Twin, Scott Walker and K. Michelle, so this all seems fine. And pleasantly incoherent!

22 SHABAZZ PALACES Lese Majesty [536 points, 17 votes, 1 first place vote]

Johnny Fever, Wednesday, 28 January 2015 21:24 (nine years ago) link

I can see why the Richard Dawson record is niche, but by jove, if you like it you're probably going to love the chuff out of it.

less of the c word m8

"Go pet your dog" is the name of my dog (DJP), Wednesday, 28 January 2015 21:27 (nine years ago) link

think it's time I come to terms with the fact that Menace Ruine is not gonna show up

Dinsdale, Wednesday, 28 January 2015 21:27 (nine years ago) link

Oh Fuck I meant to say microcosm above

xelab, Wednesday, 28 January 2015 21:29 (nine years ago) link

I like the "chuff" in Brit vernacular much better than the other c-word.

Fastnbulbous, Wednesday, 28 January 2015 21:30 (nine years ago) link

np xelab - compliment returned!

i'll go insane for Shabazz Palaces right

DJ Quit (imago), Wednesday, 28 January 2015 21:31 (nine years ago) link
