(Edit) 84 -> 75
Still enjoying this but mightve overrated it a tad bit
Works pretty well as an album, but not too many songs on here that I'd play in any other context. Big fan of the noisiness and production
Fav songs: Opposite Lanes, Drain Counter, Collapse and Appear , Slugs
It’s pretty consistent but I like a lot more songs on 1 and 2. It almost feels too polished, and I miss the roughness of his earlier stuff
I appreciate the artistry on display here but it doesn't do much for me
Great vibes
Fav songs: Here Come the Warm Jets, Needles in the Camel’s Eye, On Some Faraway Beach, Some of Them Are Old
Used to listen to this a ton in high school. Great album to listen to after a breakup
Fav songs: Never Know, PRBLMS, Free, Alone/EA6
I’m a huge Snow Strippers fan but I don’t rly listen to their albums at one time. Only Way Out is probably my favourite Snow Strippers song
Fav songs: Only Way Out, Simplify, Private Angels
While I enjoy a decent amount of songs on here, listening through them all back to back reveals some weaknesses on this project. The biggest flaw is that the production is quite boring, and often doesn’t go anywhere. Trippie does a good job singing and rapping throughout, and I find the features good as well. Overall a fun album that I enjoy
Fav songs: Bust Down, In Too Deep, Hellboy, Today
Kinda sounds like shit in a good way like the Panchiko ROT stuff. Fun listen, sounds like a great set
This album was a very enjoyable first listen for me.
It starts off with GAS, which is a great standalone banger. Then it instantly transitions into the first of 5 talk show skits.
The skits are funny and entertaining, which is good because some of them are quite long. I think without the skits the album is probably 30 mins shorter, if not more. But yeah the skits are good, definitely recommend listening through them on a first listen.
The production throughout the album is honestly peak at some ... read more
Gonna be going thru Trippie’s discography. Used to listen a lot in high school but then stopped when he started to put out shitty music. Gonna be some higher ratings at first and then a huge drop off soon I fear
Fav songs: One Meal a Day Type Beat, Fuck the Nordic Model, Kidnap Mark Cuban…, Shaun King…, Prison Riot
Hasn’t been in rotation as much as their other albums, but there’s great quality music here
fav songs: Cowboys, All Mine, Only You, Elysium

On breadness's review of Björk - Vespertine
"Good review Bread. I think it is ok to not have an introspective take on a piece of work like this, especially if it is still fresh. Bjork's writing can be pretty abstract - which adds to the magic, but also lends itself more to feeling the music as opposed to analysis"
On Vince Staples - Dark Times
"@dontneedauserna Lol to each his own
I think the Injury Reserve album has lots of cool ideas that ive never heard other artists do, and because of that I find it not boring since it keeps my attention, I also just think it's enjoyable to listen to.
This Vince album was pretty tame to me. I feel like ive heard Vince make similar songs before. I've also heard Vince make some really interesting songs, and I felt they were lacking on this album.
But yes you're right, we are now square"

On gabs7's review of JPEGMAFIA - SIN MIEDO
"@gxbs7 Yeah that makes sense. Hopefully just a weak single and not an indication of what is to come"
On gabs7's review of JPEGMAFIA - SIN MIEDO
"I understand this take, Im also not a huge fan of this single. but you gotta think back to the singles he's put out for albums in the past, which are typically his most straightforward tracks. Lean Beef Patty, Hazard Duty Pay, Trust, Jesus forgive me, etc. I think this is another case of a song like that, cuz I had the same thoughts for some of those songs, and then ended up liking them a lot more when the album came out"

"I think stick with ttktv for a bit and it'll grow on u"
