this is like when you go to a fancy restaurant and all of the portions are kinda small and not that filling, but each bite is packed with so much gorgeous and blissful flavour that you wouldn't dare to complain. just like that.
This album will never get old. The first time I listened to this album I DID NOT enjoy it. I thought that it was pretty stupid tbh. Hearing Nicki Minaj rhyme FaceTime with FaceTime really sealed the deal for me and I turned it off, not expecting to ever really listen to it again. But, one day, actually by accident, I heard Long Time, and for whatever reason, perhaps the context, or mood, or weather, or something else, it was actually pretty enjoyable. The simple, borderline mindless lyrics ... read more
I am so immeasurably hyped for these guys to come back. Some of the most creative minds in the hip-hop/rap scene right now. It goes without saying the Groggs, god rest his soul, and all that he brought to the team will be missed. I am just glad that the loss of one man didn't stop two other brilliant artists from continuing to push boundaries and create amazing sounds.
After seeing the very idiotic decision to list Bye Storm, a song which was first heard by listeners TWO YEARS AGO, as single ... read more
I actually love this album. It is kinda hard to pin down a solid reason why though, because this album spends a lot of it's time being rather simplistic sonically speaking. Even with this simplicity, truly living up to the name of minimalism, it is beyond captivating, creating an unimaginably gorgeous, clean, and bright atmosphere. It is all so crisp and blissful; it feels like several angels whispering in your ears. The album plays with several ways of varying on this one repeating melody that ... read more
I was kinda lukewarm on this after the first listen. But the second listen, for some reason, was much more enjoyable. I will of course listen to it more just to see, but I do think that this is a pretty creative project, and its one that definitely defies expectations at many moments, while still bringing good energy and solid tracks. Cool project, not sure yet whether it is better than Astroworld or not.
I feel similar about this as I do with Heroes and Villains. That being that there are a ... read more
Having to put this amazing record on my just-this-moment-created "do not listen" list because it triggers depressive episodes.
Voice of a prepubescent goat, lyrics that sound as if written by a 4 year old, overplayed as FUCK, and the dude has for some reason decided that this single song needs to be absolutely every element of himself as a person, shoving it with no grace into some of the most fake dogshit short-form content that man has ever conceived, I wish he had as much talent as he apparently does ego.
I saw some people hardcore circle jerking about this shit in some youtube comments and I had to check it out. After listening to like 2 tracks I can say pretty comfortable that I DO NOT like this one bit. People need to stop acting like something is good just because it sounds different. This sucks balls. And no, I will not be finishing the album.
This is my favourite metal album of all time and I do not think that anything is ever going to surpass it. Every song on here is amazing and. gorgeous and has great progression and storytelling and makes me feel like I am ascending to a higher plane of existence. The riffs are sexy, the drums are sexy, Keenan's voice is sexy, the lyrics are sexy, the progressions are sexy, the dumb interludes are sexy. Everything about this album is perfect. It's like DMT without the DMT. There isn't really ... read more
I gotta be honest with y'all: It was alright, but I don't think I am ever going to miss a single part of this album. It's not bad, just nothing really great either.
This album is so sweet and simplistic. Considering the era of my life that I enjoyed this, I was expecting to die of cringe upon revisiting. Instead I got an incredibly easy going and enjoyable experience. I like this.
Just because you put the "experimental" label on it doesn't make the dogshit go down any easier
