What's the story with never buying the second album?
As evidenced in this weeks QOTW re: Pearl Jam, The Strokes, Interpol etc

You could be forgiven for only ever buying the first Oasis album, mind and yet, half the world owns their entire catalogue.

Prees to esplain???

thanks

( djtrialprice, Fri 29 Jan 2010, 15:41, Reply)

Being also "pro-album,"
I think it's partly because I'm old-fashioned, but also because if the artist has gone to the trouble of compiling the album as a complete work, along with a pretty picture on the sleeve, I'd prefer to go the trouble of listening to, and forming an opinion on, the album as they intended it.

it's because most bands are shit
and it's not worth buying their other albums. Pearl Jam's have done some great stuff (Binaural is amazingly good) and some that's not so good. Most of Yield for example.

Generally, if I really like a band I'll get everything they've done.

( Citizen Cavy Admires your passion for conformity, Fri 29 Jan 2010, 16:25, Reply)

Because a lot of these flash-in-the-pan bands
e.g., The Strokes had/have a gimmicky sound that grabs people's attention for their first album. By the time they have to knock out a follow-up, it suddenly becomes apparent what a bunch of one-trick ponies they are when the second album sounds like a crap 'B'-side to the first one.

Didn't seem to stop Oasis, mind. Has their sound changed at all in the last fifteen/twenty years?
(LongJohnBaldry, Fri 29 Jan 2010, 15:42, Reply)

Also applies to Kaiser Chiefs

And the 1st is actually pretty damn good.

I may have a spare copy. I'll check when I get home (in about 20minutes) and if I have then I'll gaz you and you can have it.

Actually, I'm pretty sure my dad claimed it. I do have a spare copy of Alice In Chains (Dirt) free to a good home.

not fair re: The Strokes
they have produced three very good albums.
(bazmorningstar efil4nat3b, Fri 29 Jan 2010, 15:47, Reply)

I cite the Strokes just as an example
but there are far worse offenders. Is This It, to be fair, sounded different to everything around it at the time, and admittedly I didn't hear the whole of the second one but dismissed it when the singles from it sounded just the same as the middling tracks on the first one.
(LongJohnBaldry, Fri 29 Jan 2010, 15:49, Reply)

( whenanimalsattackhumans clad in global hypercolour, Fri 29 Jan 2010, 15:45, Reply)

It's not true of all artists,
sometimes the second album is actually better than their first. Personally I think Mirage is a more consistent effort than Camel's début, Emily Loizeau's Pays Sauvage was even better than L'Autre Bout Du Monde and Hooverphonic's Blue Wonder Power Milk is, I think, possibly their best.

The difficult one is Hawkwind. I still maintain the first two albums are the best, but is In Search of Space better than their wonderfully atmospheric début?

Oh, and just to open a can of worms: I prefer Radiohead from Ok Computer onwards.
(LongJohnBaldry, Fri 29 Jan 2010, 15:53, Reply)

(bazmorningstar efil4nat3b, Fri 29 Jan 2010, 15:56, Reply)

I like Radiohead from O.K. Computer onwards
but The Bends and O.K. Computer were both the peaks of either side of their "style". Saying that In Rainbows is pretty close to reaching that height, but not quite.

Often...
The first album is a (young) lifetime of experience, naive and shows a desire to be heard.

The second is usually done in six months and is about how difficult life on the road is, drug stories and why they want to incorporate the 'dance element' that was always under the surface or use a string quartet to 'add depth'. Also - the record company will be telling them how to 'shift units' and offering 'advice' on how to sound more commercial which will of course dilute the art and charm that made them popular on the first.

Not all bands of course, but quite a lot.
