So it was the first concept album of clipping. Its a great tease of what they are capable of, especially the story telling as their strong side. Guess they have liked this idea so much that everything after Misery is one big concept too. And I'm glad so, they keep things interesting.
Damn, I can't get over how little of attention this whole band gets, I'm pretty sure that if King Gizzard made this album or any of Frankie's after ZAM, everyone would be sucking on it like on a free bottle of water in the middle of the desert. Its so freaking good it deserves its own cult.
There's not enough of modern surf music around. Deffinitely. In that case Congratulations feels like a blessing
Osees makes their oddly beautiful and polished love letter to 70's music, rock, kraut, psychedelics. Its really one and only in its kind, it sounds absolutely lost in time, I love how Osees can create something sounding both old and fresh, its hard to cathegorize in when and where it actually belongs. You can hear the colors and taste the sounds, thats how immersive it is. Also "The Axis" must be one of their best songs ever made, give it some love.
Still my favorite project they ... read more
Rediscovering that one random ass song from my childhood. Its actually amazing.
How old I was back then? 13? Well, enough to believe that Waves was some kind of giant hit song.. and of course it never was
Kinda a nothing really pie. Its exactly what would you imagine from alt-metal and shoegaze. Almost a poor man's Deftones. But, is it bad? No, just unexciting, flat.
I like the stripped and toned down noir-dreamy aestetics, even the almost deadpan vocals too, it just works, those girls sound wonderfull. Big City Life is almost an adorable album, but it feels way too empty for the most part, well that was the point, I just do not think it was executed that good, at least not that good as on few of songs. A side note? Some lyrics are, Ehhh, weird, almost corny or whatever, its hard to explain. Feisty honestly is not really a good song, at least in my opinion.
Depression is a mental state that can occur due to realization that Mike Patton and TDEP did only one project together... And that they will never again cover Aphex Twin songs in Mathcore
No way those are the same people behind AM...
I must admit I'm still not a sucker for Pearl Jam, they tend to bore and leave me without a spark. Vs. so far speaks to me more than Ten, there's few more of songs and moments that I actually really like, and which I find generally more interesting. Also this particular album does have both an absolute phenomenal opener and closer.
Dude's a one man rage-bait factory, and I guess it works for his wallet. I can't take it seriously, I'm just concerned that there is someone out there who genuinely thinks that Mr.Macdonald is a great "artist" or whatever
Lightning Brian's did the grooves this time, this album is pure energy stored in liquid acid, average song in there is absolutely insane. Deffinitely an easier listen with more melody to itself than Wonderful Rainbow, but whatever, its the first work from this noisy duo that I really love so far
I have expected more grooves from this album, instead of the drone, layering and lush there is all over, but when its so immersive it just creates imaginery by itself, then I can't complain
Oh, Silent shout sounds like a heartbeat itself, even if its very technological and cold, full of completely
"non-human" elements, even its peculiar vocals too. Yet somehow its the most human-sounding electronic album I have ever bumped across.
Also thats a weird trophy to give, but its one of my top late-train music choices.
I've disliked a song from Brat a year ago and I never really felt like giving it an actuall chance. But I finally did so, its phenomenal, I bet everything was already said about it so thats all I am going to add, hype's deserved
