Hooooly balls, this is a fucking surprise now isn't it? Don't sleep on this one everyone, we all know you would have otherwise!
Did anyone even KNOW Anamanaguchi were releasing music this year? If so, then where the hell did you hear that? Because this is an interesting one. Anamanaguchi is a band that, at lest previously, combined elements of chip-tune, pop punk, video game music, ambient music, punk music, k-pop, rock music and a whole bunch of electronic elements to create a completely ... read more
'I'm licking, I'm sucking, White nipples, while sinking'?
'Sun Fucker eats the blind'?
Yep, this is a Swans album alright.
When it comes to Swans, you really could expect anything. Like, the group at this point in their careers are so goddamn out there, weird, interesting, experimental and unique that anything they put out will at lest feel like it's an essential part of their discogoraphy. They could put out a record that's nothing but white noise and it would still have appeal inside their ... read more
Jesus Christ, even The 1975 are stepping up to realese their best album. What universe are we living in?
(Band Binge: Muse BONUS EPISODE!)
Yep. The only noticeable and substantial side project of any of the Muse members. And no-one knows it exists. And it's the best kept secret that Muse have.
So you might be asking: 'Hey Pipe, what and who the fuck is a Vicky Cryer?'. Well i'm glad you asked, dear viewer! Dominic Howard, drummer of Muse and one of the core members started a little side hustle with members of Wolfmother, The Killers, Flaming Lips, Louis XIV, The Voidz and Jamiroquai, influenced ... read more
A man is sitting in front of his computer. He is concentrating hard, headphones in ear. He's typing something, but every so often, stops to focus on whats playing through his headphones. His face is plagued with worry, his focus heightened and his fingers furiously seeming to type.....
'....Nothing.', speaks the man. 'I've fucking got nothing.'
Another man enters the picture through a door on the right hand side of the computer man. He looks at the computer man as if this has all happened ... read more
(Band Binge: Muse Part Seven of Seven...ish)
...Fuck it. This album isn't THAT bad.
Look, this album is corny, flawed, goofy, stupid, a little messy and very flat in some areas that Muse usually stride in. And yeah, the album cover is pretty...trash. But...at lest when compared The 2nd Law, this is NOT their worst album. It just isn't. It's a grey and kinda bland album, but it's not their worst.
I think what quantifies this album as being at lest a little better then the previous 2 albums ... read more
Patient #5 Test Results:
Description: After hearing 'There Existed an Addiction to Blood' by Clipping, a pacient went into a nervous breakdown, with three dead bodies found at the scene. Here is the recorded conversation with a medical professional. Names have been erased to protect the innocent.
Doctor: So, how are you feeling after the breakdown?
Patient: It's clipping bitch.
Doctor: So you've been saying, and i'd love if you wouldn't use such language towards me. Are we clear?
Patient: ... read more
Google翻訳は私の雌犬です。これは面白いジョークですか?神はそう願っています。
だから、BabyMetalは確かに金属の興味深い人物です。 K-Pop、Metal、さらにはプログレッシブ音楽のトラックの一部の奇妙なブレンドは、2つの反応の1つを残すことができます。反応1:ああ、これはこれまでで最高のものです! BabyMetal we ... read more
Oh my god. This is Royal Blood if Royal Blood took speed.
This thing is dirty, and I mean DIRTY! It's a rock duo that are firing off every available cannon given and not giving a single care about what people think about them. It's like if Tame Impala's Elephant became it's own band, and I am HERE FOR IT!
...So what's with the reception here people?
Yeah, seriously? This thing is unhinged and amazingly out there, yet as of writing this this thing only has a 67 score...fucking REALLY? THIS ... read more
(Band Binge: Muse Part Six of Seven)
Here we are. The worst Muse album. By far. My GOD.
Hooooooly shit what happened here? After the pretty disappointing Resistance album, Muse fans were hoping, preying, PLEADING for a either a return of form or some sort of comeback towards a more tight and interesting sound, or a push towards the more expansive, grand and breathtaking moments from The Resistance (i.e Exogenisis). Either way, people didn't want...what ever the fuck this was.
The 2nd Law is ... read more
So this album? Surprisingly good!
I guess this review comes with a pretty big disclaimer that i'm a huge fan of The Darkness's early work (hell, I own Last Of Our Kind on CD) and am a sucker for this groups hugely ridiculous and highly cheesy blend of metal and hard rock that reminds me a lot of early classic rock acts, like if Jack Black mixed with Freddy Murrcury fronted a blues inspired Judas Priest, and if you were disgusted by that statement above, then stay FAR AWAY from this album.
But ... read more
Wow, this is possibly the most slept on project of 2019! Where the hell did this come from and why is it so good?
Well, I kind of know where this came from. Blindspot (the film) had Hamilton stars Rafael Casal & Daveed Diggs join forces and create something that I thought was an amazing piece of art depicting life in a Police Brutality world that sadly we all are living in. It's a great film, so seeing the creators join forces to create a album just makes sense.
And oh god does it make ... read more
The one thing I had when I was playing this was: 'God I can't wait to listen to Dannys better albums when this is over'.
Damn, I was really let down by this one! I stayed up all night waiting for this to drop, and when it did I was crushed with this sense of 'wait, that's it?'. This was the first Danny Brown album that...gasp...bored me?!?! What?!?!?
First off, some positives. The production on this album is genuinly amazing and some of the best of the year. The infecious melodies and hard ... read more
(Band Binge: Muse Part Five of Seven)
From one of the most exciting and interesting alt-rock artists of the mid 2000s to an album that's vapid, empty and pretty boring. What happened here?
OK, so that statement might be a bit TOO brutal, but this is definitely the start of Muse's disappointingly dark times. The days of Showbiz, Origin and Black Holes are well behind them, and in their quest to create something cinematic and 'conceptual', the band pretty much loose themselves in these ... read more
Imagine that you were at a club.
It's a fine club, nothing to ride home about. It's a little dirty and dank in some corners, but then again, most clubs are. It's a above average establishment. There's a pretty solid DJ playing some smash hits. They seem to be doing a pretty decent job. Your with your friends. They seem to be having oodles of fun. It's a joy to see, and to experience. You just love these people, so much! And the atmosphere is nice as well, so that's a plus, with some nice ... read more
I wanna throw up after listening to this.
What is this? No, seriously, after listening to this thing, what is this? I...uh....what? Is this punishment? Is this a BDSM victory? Is this the sound of a prolapsed anus trying to kill me?
Either way I like it.
Just a heads up: if you have panic attacks easily (like me), then fair warning: this album does not give a single fuck about your feelings. This music is unequivocally disturbing, and not because of the subject matter. This is music that ... read more
The Comet Is Here bitches.
Yep. I'm on my future jazz shit. And who can blame me? This group has had a STELLER year creatively, and the fact that The Comet Is Coming have realesed not only one of the best albums of the year, but have also realesed a companion album to go along with that realese to that feels up to snuff with their previous album is genuinely mindboggiling. Two amazing records? One year? You must be shitting in my leg.
First off, the production is as good as ever, with subtle ... read more
(Band Binge: Muse Part Four of Six)
Yep, it's their best album. It's not my favorite album, but it's their best.
I think Muse play it best when they are shooting for the stars. Hell, the band is known for, at times creating weird, oddball experiments, combining more poppy or unexpected Influences in amoungst the more heavy and distorted elements of their sound, and other times completely annihalating your ears with huge riffs or subtle acoustics. And this album? It's no exception.
Having ... read more
So we all now about the story. We all know about the leak. We all know about the infamous deflowering of what could have been one of the most impressive debut albums of all time. We all know how depressing, sad, and truly horrific Jai Paul's hand was dealt in the modern music world.
But how is the album?
Well, it's different for sure. His blend of pop/RnB/electronic music leans on more towards the experimental side for sure, with thumping beats packed with odd-tinged synthesizers that bend ... read more
