and i agree on the strange demand the record makes for singing along...with lots of people...all mangling the various harmonies..especially after a few drinks. such a wonderful place.
i love Brians fluttertone rhythms used throughout and taken even further on smile

Yes, that's basically true. But then, I'll take as much LHRW as you got.

oh god reading this shit made me so depressed. does anyone around here likes this album? its so beautiful. all this hate seems so reactionary
― lukevalentine, Saturday, 24 October 2009 21:44 (fourteen years ago) link
It is absolutely glorious and fantastic througout. Beautiful melodies, beautiful vocal harmonies.
The Beatles were better than Beach Boys generally, but they never made an album as fantastic as this one.
― Tied Up In Geir (Geir Hongro), Saturday, 24 October 2009 22:20 (fourteen years ago) link
yes i agree with this, i've always felt that the beatles are superior but never made a record as consistent as Pet Sounds which is way more consistent than say sgt. pepper's both sonically and songwise. it has that same solid gold feel throughout... presumably this is due to the fact that Beatles albums are compilations of the songs of three different songwriters and this album is Brian's vision alone. although it's not like any of the solo Beatle albums are as good as this either...
― lukevalentine, Saturday, 24 October 2009 22:44 (fourteen years ago) link
someone mentioned odessey and oracle upthread.... I think that record has the same consistent feel. I have never really compared that record with Pet Sounds though. I have no idea which is better
