I'm about 90% sure the only people who actually like Captain Beefheart's Trout Mask Replica are dirty hipsters that want to look artsy by pretending they like obnoxious noise that most people "just won't get".

I mean don't get me wrong, there's plenty of obnoxious noise that most people wouldn't get that's also really fucking good, it's just that album doesn't fit into that category, it just sucks ass.

I'm inclined to agree but the Captain is an intelligent man and a talented musician. It is most certainly not obnoxious noise, however I do not really enjoy it aesthetically either.

Yeah i was kinda exaggerating with that statement anyways haha. I actually saw someone summarize my thoughts on the album pretty well "it just sounds like a drunk guy rambling while every other band member is playing his own individual song in the background". I've heard his other stuff is a lot better though so I might check it out.
