Thriller - Michael Jackson

from Barber Cuts: Beats and Bars · host Barber Cuts

This week we step into the shadows with Thriller by Michael Jackson. The best-selling album of all time, and somehow it still feels larger than life. From creeping bass lines to spine-tingling harmonies, this record doesn’t just play… it prowls and howls.We talk about the monster hits, the deep cuts that lurk just beneath the surface, and the cultural phenomenon that changed pop music forever. Which tracks still give us chills? Which ones make us want to dance in the dark? And on an album this stacked, how do you even choose a best beat and best bar? Not sure, but we do it anyway! Also we provide some on point Songs of the Week, so be sure to listen for those as well!Lock the doors. Turn it up. And whatever you do… don’t stop listening. {Insert spooky laugh here!}Playlist of our favorites - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2RXBXfKew9A9vj6pEy4hGA?si=a406cf1b7d5a42ceEpisode art by Riley inspired by the album.Leave a comment at Spotify or any of the socials below to tell us what you think about the albums and about your favorites and skips!Barber Cuts YouTube Channel Barber Cuts on Instagram Barber Cuts on Facebook Barber Cuts on X CHAPTERS00:00 Intro01:04 Least Favorite Songs04:56 Favorite Songs12:29 Why is this album on our list?23:43 Best Beats and Bars29:44 Our Ratings34:43 Songs of the Week43:05 Next album...
