You guys haven't even seen the video! She and her daughter visit the father's grave (if you're not a Teen Mom viewer, you should know that Farrah's kid's father is dead):
The whole song repeats twice - it's like the Residents' "Commercial Album" principle applied without a wink.

love how that song ends with the phrase "this is the best i can do," delivered with an autotuned shrug
― some dude, Sunday, 19 August 2012 02:39 (9 months ago) Permalink
not having seen the show & having only these to go on I gotta say there's something in the earnestness of her delivery and the unrevised bluntness of the lines that's kind of moving in the way some GUYS I JUST REALIZED SOMETHING ABOUT THE WORLD hardcore used to be, these lyrics that'd be like THERE HAS TO BE! A BETTER WAY!
at any rate enjoy it while you can, by this time next week you will be as sick of this as you got of Rebecca Black

― some dude, Sunday, 19 August 2012 02:45 (9 months ago) Permalink
I'll have moved on to something else for sure, but this is a completely different kind of kick for me. Rebecca Black (who I never got even momentarily interested in) was a girl trying to make pop music and mostly failing; this is something else. I'm genuinely unsure whether this girl thinks she's making pop records which could be hits, or whether she's making some kind of bizarro confessional art-song. To tie it into something Scott said on Facebook, I feel like Editions Mego should license this album and put it out with cover art designed by Stephen O'Malley and see what happens.
― 誤訳侮辱, Sunday, 19 August 2012 02:47 (9 months ago) Permalink
yeah i mean the album is a soundtrack to her book right? i kinda wonder if she has any misguided pop ambitions or just threw it together as part of her media platform
― some dude, Sunday, 19 August 2012 03:00 (9 months ago) Permalink

This is amazing. Reminds me a lot of the Russian Youtube-hit singer Anzhela London. Same blend of twisted-commercial-pop elements and outsider art.

The album is quite remarkable. As mentioned upthread, it really doesn't sound like it ended up being weird, abrasive and disjointed accidentally. Appalling music can certainly take on a strange avant-garde quality without meaning to but this sounds more deliberate and focused somehow.

there's no musical throughline to her melodies, it's just diary entries sung at random pitches.

this girl's persona on the show is completely tragic btw. a lot of legitimately bad things have happened to her (boyfriend dying, her mom is abusive iirc) but she's also kind of awful. her speaking voice is one of the least appealing sounds.

someone mentioned Crystal Castles, I'm getting like lo-fi house music via noise artist vibes. like it kind of sounds like Maria Minerva or Grimes. with added bass wobbles.

It's definitely weirdo music but I don't find it especially fascinating.. I wish it was funny-sounding but I'm not laughing. You get the jist of what the entire thing sounds like after 30 seconds, and there's no big surprises after that.

I'm not listening to it for laughs. I really find it fascinating. Someone in the io9 comments compared it to Noise, and while I shrugged that off, I did say (and meant) that a Farrah Abraham/Dominick Fernow (of Prurient/Cold Cave) collaboration would be fucking awesome.

She got paid 1.5M for a single video? Actual pornstars barely get that money in a decade. I dont feel sad for her but I do feel sad as a consumer, they keep force feeding us mediocre reality tv trash such as this woman, tricking us into thinking she's somehow worthy of pop stardom.
