- "While "Spirit of Eden" serves as the incredible birthplace of Post-Rock, Laughing Stock is the incredible companion album that serves to complete the full picture. It is a smoother experience that doesnt skip a single beat, and just leaves the listener craving more of the serene fountain it seems to shortly serve it's guests."
100/100

The decision they made to just abruptly end Ascension Day is so weird but so awesome. Love it!
they actually ran out of tape to record it on and it was supposed to be way longer
It is not awesome. Hate it!
@@ozika2 sometimes mistakes have better results than actual ideas
The godfather of post-rock. Listeing to this along side Brad really made me realize how essencial this was as a start of the genre and set a foundation of how grand things could get past this point
One of Brads best reactions to post rock and espcially Talk Talk, 100/10
I hope he reacts to The Colour of Spring as well, because it's absolutely a worthy album in their post rock trilogy. It's a transitional album between their new romantic pop and the post rock of Spirit of Eden and Laughing Stock. It's a really stunning album

thanks nigga
Laughing Stock is a big reason why 1991 is the best in year of music ever for me. Which is funny because it's not really because of the reasons that it gets a lot of praise from a more mainstream point of view, for releases such as Nevermind, Ten, Metallica's Black Album, U2s Achtung Baby... But because of albums like Laughing Stock, Loveless, Spiderland, The Low-End Theory, Blue Lines, Just For a Day, Gish, Green Mind etc
Up there with 1967 for sure
Achtung Baby is actually U2's own left turn masterpiece. It has elements of heavy layered funk, industrial, and less Americana theme.
Currently mourning that I missed this live, been waiting for him to hear this for years.
man every time the organ synth thing plays in this album i ascend a tiny bit ngl
This and Mark Hollis' solo album literally made my life complete. This is the muscial equivalent of Theosis.
I'm so glad Brad got around to this one. I fell in love with this album earlier this year, I saw he reacted to Spirit of Eden and hoped that someone would donate for Laughing Stock (I can't because I'm broke lol). I'm so glad he liked it as much as I did.
Just to add a bit to this, I first listened to it fully on a plane ride over Europe on like 1 hour of sleep. I was in such a hazy state that I looked out the window to see the sea and the sky meet with almost 0 horizon, just solid blue. I thought I died to this album... and I was totally okay with it being the soundtrack.
Thanks to the guys running this channel for the repost!
note that when brad says he's seen a video of mark hollis singing ascension day, one doesn't actually exist; no music videos for this or spirit of eden were ever done and the last time the band toured was in 1986 for the colour of spring; the extensive arrangements and studio-built nature of these songs made touring them impractically expensive
he didn't say he saw a video of Ascension Day, he said he saw a music video of him singing. it was probably the one for I Believe In You
@@b1i9 well my point still stands then; i believe in you, being on spirit of eden, didn't have a music video made or any live performances to be filmed. the video that claims to be such on youtube is very clearly using the studio audio if you listen to it
@@smidlem1117 it is a music video... most music videos use the studio audio, it's not a live performance. and i think mark said the label made him shoot this video and he regretted it later
Been waiting for this one. Still the most otherworldly, beautiful music I've heard.
HAHAAHAHHAHHAHHAHA FINALLY
Edit: HE GAVE IT A 10. IM SO FUCKING HAPPY
I've been listening to music my whole life and I love so many things out there, BUT, this one gave me different sensations from all the music I've enjoyed in my entire life. It's not about enjoyment or pleasure, this album transcends and takes me to places I've never been before. My favourite album of all time. Period.
Genuinely one of the most surprising listening experiences I've ever had. Since it's ranking so high on all music nerd sites I expected it to be good, but I didn't expect it to sound like THIS. It's so... I don't even know how to describe it. Like in one way it's just "super mature boring dad music," but there's this beautiful eeriness, and while the chord progressions and song progression in general is very coherent, it never LANDS anywhere, and it creates such a unique vibe.
Yea it's so otherworldly, it almost sounds apocalyptic to me but in a really beautiful and peaceful way, like music you'd hear as you're dying, there's still an undertone of darkness but it's so calming
I’m not religious. But New Grass would be my guess for what is playing in heaven.
My favorite post-rock album of all time
Listened to it every night is a religious experience to me. An absolute grower.
IZZA 10.
shit hits crazy on mushrooms btw
