It's already been mentioned on the year-end list thread, but I think the Kanye mega-blurb on Cokemachineglow should be acknowledged here as well. http://www.cokemachineglow.com/feature/5816/top50albums-2010?pg=5

Near the end of his life Philip K. Dick started writing novels that mixed autobiography with science fiction with philosophical treatise as a way of showing what happens when a fiercely imaginative but broken and addiction-addled artist encounters what PKD called Hagia Sophia, “Holy Wisdom.” The artists reels and reels and then goes on creating within the language he’s fashioned for himself but using that language to translate for a new tongue. For PKD that meant some of the best and most profound novels of his career, novels like VALIS and The Transmigration of Timothy Archer. For Kanye it means MBDTF.

“All of the Lights,” real talk, and the stars are melting because MBDTF gives them place in a celestial choir.

weren't you the one saying there's absolutely no shades of celebration or bravado in "Runaway"?
What makes you think I was talking about "Runaway"? I was thinking about "Gorgeous".
― Tina Tina Cheneuse (DJP), Friday, 17 December 2010 17:11 (thirteen years ago) link
The overall arc of the album is "I'm awesome, you hate me, go suck it" slowly transforming into "wait, come back, I'm lonely, forgive me"

i actually liked that the pfork blurb was short -- not sure there was enough distance b/w this album & the year end list for there to have been 500 more words or w/e written about it -- if it came out in april, maybe -- i mean sean wrote that whole voice review, not sure what else he has left to say about it at this point

yeah i don't know, was i suppose to assume you meant specifically "Gorgeous" because you mentioned his balls?
― some dude, Friday, 17 December 2010 17:18 (thirteen years ago) link
So because I say that is the vibe of the album as a whole, that means that every single song has the exact same theme?
Like seriously, try thinking.

yeah I basically agree, "power"/"all of the lights"/"monster" sequence would be a good EP or something and is usually what I listen to rather than the album proper
― Egyptian Raps Crew (bernard snowy), Wednesday, 22 December 2010 16:10 (thirteen years ago) link
gonna start a band named "monster sequence" and call our first album power all of the lights, see if anyone notices
― Egyptian Raps Crew (bernard snowy), Wednesday, 22 December 2010 16:11 (thirteen years ago) link
Starting with "Power" and skipping "Devil in a New Dress" makes this a much, much better album.
― Indolence Mission (DJP), Wednesday, 22 December 2010 16:11 (thirteen years ago) link
i actually kinda dig "gorgeous" if only b/c its understated psych-hop production + fuzzy vox makes "power" feel FUCKING MASSIVE when it hits next
― i genuinely thought when i first joined that he was the admin (ilxor), Wednesday, 22 December 2010 16:41 (thirteen years ago) link
yeah, that's true, there is a nice contrast there — plus the rapping on it is good enough that the swag of "Power" feels deserved

― Bitch, it cold outside!!! BURR (San Te), Wednesday, 22 December 2010 22:30 (thirteen years ago) link
This album has high points and low points but there's def no skippable tracks on it.
― mmmm... yung hummus (Whiney G. Weingarten), Wednesday, 22 December 2010 22:39 (thirteen years ago) link
Best away to avoid the skipping dilemma is not playing it.

That is the beat with all of the trebly bullshit sitting directly in the vocal space, both obscuring the vocals and just clashing super unpleasantly in my ears.
