The Beatles (The White Album) (studio album) by The Beatles

there is a lot of crap on this album.
fortunately there are also some good songs.
"Back in the U.S.S.R."
"Dear Prudence"
"Blackbird"
"While My Guitar Gently Weeps"
"Mother Nature's Son"

THE BOMB! (and I generally never use capital letters on the internet).

En general, "The Beatles [White Album]" es genial, muestra el lado más rockero y experimental de la banda, hay muchas cosas interesantes aquí y me encanta el sonido del álbum; solo escucha "Back in the U.S.S.R.", "Helter Skelter", "Revolution 9" y "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" y sabrás a lo que me refiero.

El problema es que este álbum es tan largo y con tantas canciones de relleno, que varias de ellas pasaron desapercibidas para mí, a tal punto que llega a ser un poco cansado su escucha.

De cualquier forma y a pesar de sus inconsistencias, sigue siendo muy disfrutable.


English review:
Overall, "The Beatles [White Album]" is good, it shows the more rock and experimental side of the band, there are a lot of interesting things here and I love the sound of the album; just listen to "Back in the U.S.S.R.", "Helter Skelter", "Revolution 9" and "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" and you'll know what I mean.

The problem is that this album is so long and with so many filler songs, that several of them went unnoticed by me, to the point that I just wanted it to end.

In any case and despite its inconsistencies, it is still very enjoyable.

They are highly regarded as a fore runner in music of the time, which possibly they were, but this album isn't that good.

Revolution of The Beatles makes Helter-Skelter in head, so came Revolution no 9 by sounded tunes, because It's beatless, so it's Beatles.

This is their most expansive and experimental album The Beatles have ever created. This is primarily due to the sheer number of genres they go into on this record and it is almost like they are trying to cover the whole of music history in a 90 minute run time. As a result of this, we get a rollercoaster ride of an album that is one of the most interesting and engaging releases of all time. I remember my first time listening to this record and being in complete shock every time I went onto a new song as you really can't predict what you are going to get next. One of the best surprises I got on my first listen was Helter Skelter which is an absolute classic Beatles track with its heavy guitar work and frantic drumming never failing to fill me with energy. There are so many more moments like this that I have with this record but with just how diverse it is going through them all might take all day. Not only is their genres and styles diverse on here but so is the instrumentation with there being so much to explore and analyse. Pretty much all of the instrumentation feels significant as well with all of it serving a purpose and it always suits the style of music they are going for on whatever song these unique instruments show up on. The song writing is also fantastic on here with the range of themes and ideas they go into depth about being seriously impressive. Overall, for a 90 minute record this is extremely consistent in terms of its quality and this is probably the most enjoyable album of theirs to listen to even if it isn't their strongest.

Poster example of the whole being bigger than the sum of its parts.

A monument of ragged, strange, often masturbatory opulence. It's as adventurous as rock music gets, and even for a 90-minute behemoth, it moves at a breakneck pace. For every idea that may not land or inspire, there are a handful more to do the job.
