Every song was good but most of the time I'd rather listen to the inspirations that they wear so clearly on their sleeves.
Instantly infectious and always engaging. I haven't been so excited listening to something in years. Equally extremely off it's time and decades before it.
I thought the vocals would get to me but I actually enjoyed them quite a bit by the end
The album cover looks like every record ever at the goodwill. Surprised by how good this was.
This shit would have popped off as a niche self produced debut if AOTY existed in the 70s. Pretty crazy moments on here. Sloppy at times but it only adds to the vibes.
Every song is short and sweet. The closing track sounds like something Alex G would make today. Great great great vibes.
The mix is soooo much cleaner. Everything feels more immediate. Any my god did Gerard give the performance of a fucking lifetime during the BBC session. Some of his vocal delivery in those live tracks totally eclipse the studio recording.

And if I could strike skidi rizz kai cenat ohio from the english language, god knows I would but too many people agree that they are real words so they become real. For better or worse."

"I'm confused by a lot of this argumentation. If post-rap doesn't exist than post-rock shouldn't either. The point of throwing "post-" in front of a genre is to signifify a complete aesthetic shift from the core of a genre while still maintaining it's central ethos.
We can say clipping, JPEGMAFIA, and Danny Brown are experimental rappers because they play with aesthetics and push the boundaries of rap. Judging By Storm's newest output, they are not interested in pushing boundaries, they ignore the boundaries all together.
I guess all of this is to say, you can call a Goodspeed You! Black Emperor album experimental rock and that'd be fine. You can call a single by By Storm Experimental Rap and that's fine. But to describe either as "post-""
