While re-listening to Bitches Brew tonight it occurred to me, there's never been anything that sounds quite like it since, and there never will be again.

What are your favorite unicorn albums?

Keygen church ░█░█░░█░█░█░ Nothing ive found sounds like this guy, its quite incredible

It may not be a "unicorn" per se, but it's often forgotten since it came out in 2020 and they weren't able to tour the album. Coldplay's Everyday Life is an art piece to me.

Honorable mentions:

Black Pumas - Black Pumas Watsky - x Infinity The Avett Brothers - Mignonette Parker Barrow - Jukebox Gypsies Childish Gambino - Because the Internet Chance the Rapper - Coloring Book Red Hot Chili Peppers - Stadium Arcadium The Black Keys - Brothers

Most albums by Mamaleek. They change up the sound on each record, and still stay unlike anyone else. Check out ‘Diner Coffee’ and ‘Vida Blue’.

The North Borders - Bonobo

[–] Bwaz@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

Weird Tales by Golden Smog. Kind of like country on acid but not like the Grateful Dead. Very creative.

Between the Buttons by The Rollong Stones. Unlike other Stones albums - Jagger and Richards don't even seem to like it anymore. But it has a sound of its own, and might be Brian Jones' last significant effort with the Stones.

And of course T.Rex

Let's put in Joker's Daughter - The Last Laugh. The track Lucid particulary is exemplary of what puts the corn on this uni. A Danger Mouse joint.

Lord Huron's Vide Noir is a significant departure from the rest of their work so far, and I really wish they'd do more in that style

Metallica - ...and justice for all
But not in a good way.
