| Anonymous Coward (OP) User ID: 1425723 United States06/13/2011 02:17 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Well that's because they condensed all their talent into fourteen perfect songs -- how could it NOT be LOL?! Every Beatles album I like more at certain points in my life, but the one album I always consistently like on the same level is the White Album, and I think it's because of how all over the place it is, which is really the definition of psychedelic if you think about it. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1425723I would agree that the White Album is The Beatles most psychedelic album, as you say, it's absolutely ALL over the place, but every song fits into the whole and most could stand on their own as well. |

Yeah for sure. I didn't used to think this, but now I'll never skip a track. I used to think half of it was whatever, well I just got done listening to it for the billionth time, but once again, an immaculate listen that only seems to become more and more natural with every playthrough. Everything balances out. The extremes all pull everything together. Pop here, noise here, trippiness here, sincere folk here, balladry, dance music, it's got it all going on. I think it's honestly the least BLATANTLY psychedelic, but htat's only from a first impression. I think when you think about the term, "Psychedelic", it's along the lines of "something that seems natural that has absolutely no logical reason to seem so", or something similar. Like, familiarity that you have no clue why it's so familiar, as it's entirely new. I think they made all this music that almost works as a dedication or a love letter to music as a whole, but with their hyper-aware take on it, it becomes the most (subtle) psychedelic album ever. Just because there's nothing trippier than having your mind blown to a catchy chorus and head-noddin' beat that even a four-year-old could find appealing. Last Edited by Xen_ on 06/13/2011 02:29 AM |

First Off I'm Sick So I popped 4 dayquills Then I was like Fuck yo lets get blazed up yo!! WOrd UO! List==lets listen to this At night time under the high pale moonlight while you baskin the natural nature of being at peace with your surroundings. You have grasped the Idea of seeing PRUDENCE SMILE!! I jsut want to understand the people of our world. Except it is hard to do that when you have issues understanding yourself. We are like rubik cubes with no matching colors mindlessly traveling trhough each others thoughts and metions. We are playing each others instructions We grasps at the invisible things we have created. We worship paper things plastic things material things No Balance We off the Blance lost our Reality We killed all these strawberryies feilds!! We must get the scope to look inside the brains of the ones that say the WALRUS was the Paul!! HALLL HALLL |

I agree, it took me several years to fully appreciate the White Album, I used to skip certain tracks, but eventually you learn to love those songs just as much, if not more than your initial favorites.. |

Music isn't really anything but us showing off just how conscious we are....enough to manipulate sound waves to the degree of creating melodies and harmonies. It's really amazing how advanced we are even if we aren't the most advanced species (or maybe we are?). But yes, as you can clearly see from your post, you are definitely understanding a lot of the deeper concepts in this album...as Leary said...thank God for the Beatles [link to www.dread.net] |

Yeah. I think that a lot of times when you overplay your initial favorites, it can ruin them for when you DO grasp the whole of really any album. But if you don't....or if you do and then give it some time....the end result is magical. I love music so much. |
