Desert island - The Magnetic Fields

[trumpette20]

all the songs from this album are the best songs of this album

[ferdywilkerson]

This simplicity is simply stunning. It's like the platonic idea of pop music.

[KingCrimson776]

These tunes are just way too repetitive

[TigerLikesTail]

@KingCrimson776

That's the base of minimal pop, which is what this is.

It is hypnotic, ethereal, & layered with much going into the texture..

It is not supposed to be progressive like KC, Dream Theater, Yes, Genesis etc..

It is exploratory in its own way though.

I will listen to say Larks Tongue In Aspic II for the changes & Bruford & Muir playing off

of each other.

These guys create an entirely different listening experience just as fun for me.

We'll develop muscles from cracking coconuts... let our clothing drop off... feel each other's butts

I'll be the madness that carries you away I'll be the sadness to light your darkest day I'll be the desert island where you can be free I'll be the vulture you can catch and eat Desert island love is all around Desert island where you can laugh aloud Desert island everywhere's a beach Desert island that's what I wanna be. We'll develop muscles from cracking coconuts Let our clothing drop off feel each other's butts Start a better country where we can get things done Make a fortune t

[Clownspike77]
