Icky Thump or Zeitgeist?

donraven

I have listened to each one about 10 times so far, and while I have always been a HUGE smashing pumpkins fan, I have to say Icky Thump is the better album....by a longshot actually.

Zeitgeist is half a great album, while Icky Thump is fully an excellent album.

Anyone who thinks that Meg can't play falls into one of two categories:

A.) You don't play drums and don't really understand what makes a good drummer

B.) You do play drums, think you know what you're talking about, suck really bad yourself and therefore your opinion of good drumming is out of whack


Meg's drumming on Icky Thump is tasteful, serves the songs, and sounds good. Period.

this is the funniest post ever

i fall into neither, being a damn good drummer (and modest too) and i don't think she sucks. I KNOW she sucks, and she sucks where it matters, which is her live performance

oh definitely zeitgeist btw

Well, I'll give my opinion but I just got home from an all night party so I'm too tired to give any reasoning behind it but I find myself wanting to listen to Zeitgeist more than I do Icky Thump.

So Zeitgeist for me.

Two best albums of the year so far though

zeitgeist is my choice...for two reasons:
1) i haven't listened to icky thump yet (other than the single)
2) the pumpkins have my heart and i love the zeit.
