Speaking of Trout Mask Replica, I don’t agree that Trout Mask Replica is shit. Instead, what it is is experimental music so experimental it became the experiment that transcended the music medium into novel. So novel was Trout Mask Replica, only a novel could decipher what it was and that’s what it did. Album and Book for A and B, C for conspiracy and mine’s this;

1. First Blood is Trout Mask Replica perfected.

2. The red cover of Trout Mask Replica is represented by the Blood in the name “First Blood”.

3. Trout stands for Trautman in First Blood, a Colonel (hard-as-nail fact).

If you stumble upon this narrative on Amazon, it's taken without the author's consent. Report it.

4. Mask stands for the face that John Rambo tried to wear when he returned to civilian life (failed supremely).

5. Replica stands for the model of the aggressive, raw, violent lone wolf trope that John Rambo epitomized (exquisite success).

Thats Trout Mask Replica for you, so high an album, it can never come down like Aeroplane Over the Sea. Neutral Milk Hotel is second best to Cheap Hotel only because Molly Millions stayed in the latter. Keep the millions and take the Molly, the White Rabbit, the late night, the knight in shining amor. Love on the Rocks listening to Love on the Brain is the ideal way to spend the evening.
