I listen to Metal Machine Music every few years. It's......different. Not good, but I admire the audacity of it.

I like Trout Mask Replica and Metal Machine Music an awful lot. The Zeitkratzer orchestral version of the latter is also really, really good.
Only albums I own that I have trouble sitting through are Elton John's Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, The Beatles' White Album, and Nic Endo's Cold Metal Perfection. Though I do intend on revisiting the Elton John album sometime.

Sounds like modem-core, if I'm allowed to coin a genre. I only listened because it was on v/vm records, but it's probably not too far removed from something like Nobukazu Takemura's more out there recordings (Water's Suite is bloody difficult). Not sure I'd listen to it that often, admittedly. |

With that said, yeah, I can't listen to it all either. I bought it some many years ago to see if I could get into something other than just his hit songs..... didn't really work out. |

Agree on Trout Mask
I can't handle Frampton Comes Alive, aimless noodly jazz, screechy violin classical, Sufjan Stevens, Sam Smith, and a lot of others.

Really the only answer to this for me are albums that are very long. I don't usually have 3 or 4 hours uninterrupted to listen to anything. I'll continue a long album later sometimes, but just as often I'll get distracted by other stuff, or I won't be in the mood to finish it, etc.

Even though there are a bunch that are only like 10 to 20-something minutes long? |

Just one of those things, I inherited the album, and I found the overall sound just completely unlistenable, in that cloying tinny 70s prog way. But I heard "Rocket Man" in an advert or shopping mall a while back, and parts of it seemed to resonate with me for some reason. I'm hoping it was just an illness, or indeed a temporary inadvertent mixing of multiverses. |

A good example of an album I own but can't listen to in one sitting, is Iced Earth's "Alive in Athens". I own the 1999 2 CD edition which runs about two hours and ten minutes. There's even a 3 CD version that increases the run time to a full three hours, but I don't own that one and think it's just as well. |
