This truly was the mark of the end of Kanye and it’s a pretty depressing one at that. This album sucks, I mean obviously. If anyone is actually unironically bumping hoodrat then you should be locked tf upπ
The only good song on this album is Burn. I honestly really like this song to the point where I wish it wasn’t connected to such a shitty album.
So…. I’m breaking my rules a bit, usually I listen to every track of an album before dropping a rating. But to be fair there’s no music here to even listen to since it’s all just one big pile of slop.
So this is gonna be a little bit of a rant because I discovered this from reddit and I absolutely despise it honestly, to anyone it’s helped, I’m glad that you found something out of it because to me this album is disgusting in the worst way possible.
So I have depression and this is NOT an album that describes how it feels at all. No this is just edgy purposeless bullshit, I went through with listening to all of this and it’s honestly just pathetic, this feels like it ... read more
Literal definition of a hidden gem to the point where I had to add it to the website. If you love Godspeed You! Black Emperor then I would definitely check this out.
Favorites: sundog, Snow Rock, Whale.
I love long songs as much as the next guy but this shit actually just fucking sucks manπ
A near perfect album with only Seamus holding it back from my favorite Pink Floyd album.
This album is SO DAMN GOOD!!!! After giving it a couple listens this is by far my favorite project by Machine Girl. This thing is rough, fun and I just love everything about it so much. And to answer the question of my good friend @cappyk “I'm not sure who the audience is for this”
Uhhhhhhhh, I like it.
Also it reminds me of Year Of The Snitch which also happens to be my favorite Death Grips album.
EDIT: nevermind this is the best GY!BE album.
Honestly this is my personal favorite GY!BE album just because it has my two favorite songs by them. As much as I wish I could say it’s perfect, I do think the drones are a little bit of a weak point on this album even though I enjoy those too. Mladic and We Drift Like Worried Fires are two of the best songs ever made though.
This is the greatest EP of all time.
UPDATE: I re-listened to this album again not too long ago and my opinion improved on it quite significantly! I actually quite like King Kunta now, the production on that song grew on me significantly. Overall this is a great album but I’m still not a huge fan of Institutionalized or For Sale. Both songs are still pretty good though. But my opinion could change further in the future.
Okay, don’t get me wrong. This album is great but I personally think it’s overrated. This ... read more
Sadly Kanye West has to be one of the greatest assholes as well as one of the greatest musicians in history.

I actually like this project a little more than the original Kikuo world. This one is extremely strong.
One of the greatest albums about war I have listened to personally. This thing continued Godspeed You Black Emperor’s hot streak with one of their most powerful albums.
Although the overall message of this album is a good one, I do think it’s too repetitive for it’s own good. I personally think Yanqui U.X.O is a much better album about war while this one is honestly just painfully boring and not too thought provoking. The only positive I have to say about this album is Babys In A Thundercloud.

Another very strong album by Kikuo with an extremely strong finish.

"How DARE you not enjoy Swans. You’re just not avant-garde enough, you don’t get the intricacies of strumming a guitar without changing chords and yodeling about some bullshit. It’s some real fucking crazy shit man, like the crescendos and shit. We should review NUKE Michael Gira with kindness and positivity instead."

On Vannily Iki's review of Swans - The Glowing Man
"Gira’s song writing is actually one of my favorite things about Swans for me. While yes it can be very, very strange. It almost feels mythological to me at points, like a twisted fairytale in music form. And without his weird ass lyrics, I don’t think Swans would be anywhere close to the same. Although I do think his strongest lyricism was on Soundtracks For The Blind. Animus is a beautifully written song imo."
