one month passes...

he announced on twitter a few days ago that he's no longer doing shows for the foreseeable future due to mental health/substance abuse issues :/

the reviews seem good...

but, i think it's very bad, and without getting too gossipy, i understand that warp were very unhappy with it, and it was recorded during a period of heavy substance dependency.

huh, i remember the reviews being bad, but liking what i heard and thinking that i need to give it a good listen.

metacritic is 74%, pitchfork 7.3.

line from the pitchfork review:

"It is a rawer, scrappier record than either of his prior LPs, and the way he flips the bird at conventional notions of fidelity is almost punk."

part of warp's problem with it, it sounds terrible because he produced and mastered it himself

ill hear a few tracks on youtube

but i did not like the second one at all and im afraid of the long track list of the third

it was better than green language but still nowhere near as good as glass swords, especially due to how rough-sounding it is

three years pass...

I haven't really liked much by Rustie since Glass Swords, so I kind of forgot about how much I liked that album. Listening again now, and it still slaps.

He hasn't done much since. :(

I think it's hard to overstate the impact that Glass Swords had (even if much of it is on EDM that's all worse than Glass Swords).

I enjoy EVENIFUDONTBELIEVE. Has a cool vaporous quality where everything seems to be constantly fading into white noise.

Mario Meatwagon (Moodles), Saturday, 7 December 2019 14:02 (four years ago) link

9 years on and it's still the album of the year for me

Papa Triste (Thee Macallan 18 Year), Saturday, 7 December 2019 14:59 (four years ago) link

Globes has always been the standout imo

nashwan, Saturday, 7 December 2019 22:37 (four years ago) link

After Light no question

one year passes...

So he released this excellence last April, can't imagine why I missed it: https://hypebeast.com/2020/4/rustie-russell-whyte-project-tease-new-song-music-video

And then nothing apparently?
