Revolver may be The Beatles' seventh album, released on August 5, 1966. The album showcased a number of new stylistic developments which would become more pronounced on later albums, such as trippy drug references and more pronounced sexual metaphors. It was originally entitled Bigger than Jesus, but later changed since this fact is implicitely well known.
The most astonishing characteristic of this album was the methods used to produce its music. All songs, most prominently the psychodelic, acidic, anti-Catholic, suicidal, Eastern, controversial "Here, There and Everywhere" (whose hideous name had to be changed, as shown below), were created after one entire week's worth of experimenting with depressing drugs, hallucinogens, gold-colour paint spray, three-months-old bean burritos, insecticide, and pretty much everything else that is too disgusting to have inside one's place of residence.
The Biddles (this is the standard pronunciation of the band's name in non-First World countries) have given future musicians a great advice: get yourself stoned to near unconsciousness in order to create revolutionary, amazingly popular music.
Unfortunately, no one has followed their advice. Screw them.
