Recommend Some good Atmosphere Albums

Postby KaZer » Dec 8th, '11, 18:34

I have been listening to Atmosphere again lately, Great band, awesome story-telling by Slug.

I have GodLovesUgly & The Family Sign. I enjoy listening both of em' and I want to get another album or 2 from Atmosphere. Please explain why but again everyone has different option, heres what I would to get:

When Life Give You Lemons, You Paint That Shit Gold (2008)
You Can't Imagine How Much Fun We're Having (2005)
To All My Friends, Blood Makes The Blade Holy EP (2010)
Lucy Ford EP
Sad Clown Bad Dub EP

I'm more leaning on WLGYL or TAMFBMTBH

Thank you, TR :flower:

For pure skill and innovation, try downloading You Can't Imagine How Much Fun We're Having by Atmosphere. The Production will blow your Mind away.

When Life Give You Lemons, You Paint That Shit Gold is equally dope too.

I agree with the comment above:

When Life Give You Lemons, You Paint That Shit Gold (2008)
You Can't Imagine How Much Fun We're Having (2005)

The production is great on both.

I'd also recomment some of the Sad Clown/Bad Dub stuff. Plus "To All My Friends, Blood Makes the Blade Holy: The Atmosphere EPs".

I was just going to say this. Good call, bro.

Seven's travels is my second favorite album by them. Lemons being my first.

You should definitely download Lemons next.. The storytelling is, quite literally, THE BEST storytelling in any genre of music. It's extraordinary.

You Can't Imagine isn't really considered an album (at least by Slug). It's still dope though. To all my friends / Blood makes the blade holy is actually a double EP condensed into one CD. It's dope.. There are a number of dope songs on that EP.

Def. pick up Seven's travels though, since I see you bought Lemons.

Some highlights from Seven's are:

Trying to find a balance
Bird Sings Why The Caged I know
Gotta Lotta Walls
Lift Her Pull Her
Always Coming Back Home To You
Shoes

I like the whole album, but those are my favorite.

My second favorite tbh after "When Life Gives You Lemons, You Paint That Shit Gold". Became is by far my favorite Song from the Album because he talks about Eyedea in very descriptive manner which makes it even more dope.

Became actually wasn't about Eyedea. Our speculation was wrong. My Key (Mikey) was about Eyedea. Became was actually about another--unnamed--close friend of Slug's, where the friendship fell through. Still a great song though.

Okay. I remember reading somewhere that this song was about Eyedea, some dude gave a very good breakdown of the Lyrics to the song and how it relates to him. It's been a long time since I actually read that, so this assumption stayed in my mind till now. It's hard to believe that it's about some one else because I was convinced when I read that Article, I can't remember properly where I had read about it, damn it.

Thanks for clarifying.Love that song.

I got what you said when you mentioned "our", Haha. I assumed that you were part of that discussion and some one else pointed out that THEORY, but a quick search proved me wrong.
