Troll?

Me?

Hardly.

Just a kid who bought Voodoo when it was being touted as the next big thing and felt duped.

I will argue that D'Angelo is not talented, nor "multifacted."

Austin, Monday, 28 January 2013 05:58 (thirteen years ago)

Besides, if I was trolling, don't you think I'd be the one accusing other forum members of authoring unfavorable blog posts?

Austin, Monday, 28 January 2013 06:00 (thirteen years ago)

stop

I will argue that D'Angelo is not talented, nor "multifacted."

And I will laugh at you.

The Reverend, Monday, 28 January 2013 06:01 (thirteen years ago)

Yeah I'm done.

Oh dear, how outcast am I?

Woe is me.

What shall I do?

Oh right: listen to Maxwell's wonderful music. And think about how I saw him in concert.

I laugh when D'Angelo releases nothing in 2013.

Austin, Monday, 28 January 2013 06:09 (thirteen years ago)

pwn

I've seen Maxwell in concert too bubba, funnily enough it didn't make me hate D'Angelo.

The Reverend, Monday, 28 January 2013 06:20 (thirteen years ago)

That is funny because I don't hate D'Angelo.

I just see his ever so obvious flaws.

And that's without having seen him attempting to play a guitar in person.

(hiyoooo!)

Austin, Monday, 28 January 2013 06:31 (thirteen years ago)

But honestly, look at the songs writes: they're aimless and non-directional. Really not good.

I missed that. Glad to know someone's keeping tabs on me here.

Austin, Monday, 28 January 2013 06:35 (thirteen years ago)

And that's without having seen him attempting to play a guitar in person.

measuring guitar playing ability, if not entirely objective, is at least a bit quantifiable. he plays the fucking guitar.

Shuwopley (some dude), Tuesday, 5 March 2013 12:14 (thirteen years ago)

d and ?uest went on two hours late. did covers of cosmic slop and new position, lotsa new material and most of it sounded great. Africa, the root, lady, alright. was pretty much just what i wanted. very noodly, very jam session. dude sounds great.

less "new music" and more "songs that were covers that I couldn't name" than i thought

six months pass...

I passed on a brand new copy of this for £1 in my local pound-land today. I thought about getting it, because I've heard v. good things, but every time I listen to it, nothing sticks. What's the attraction for people (genuine question)?

arctic mindbath (President of the People's Republic of Antarctica), Wednesday, 16 October 2013 23:47 (twelve years ago)

I'm kinda regretting not buying it anyway, cause I feel I'm missing some crucial element.... but really, how come this is so acclaimed in critical circles?

arctic mindbath (President of the People's Republic of Antarctica), Wednesday, 16 October 2013 23:48 (twelve years ago)

if you wouldn't spend $1.50 on a new copy of anything involving d'angelo let alone voodoo i think you're beyond help

J0rdan S., Wednesday, 16 October 2013 23:56 (twelve years ago)

yeah...

flopson, Wednesday, 16 October 2013 23:57 (twelve years ago)

in my defense, there is barely any room left to put new CDs atm.

this is not an adequate defense, i know.

arctic mindbath (President of the People's Republic of Antarctica), Wednesday, 16 October 2013 23:58 (twelve years ago)

because every song on it is a jam????! i mean, if you doesn't grab you don't sweat it but i am having a hard time imagining anyone, much less somebody who posts on a discussion board called i love music, not hearing anything in a tough and beguiling song like "spanish joint"

TracerHandVEVO (Tracer Hand), Wednesday, 16 October 2013 23:59 (twelve years ago)

lol @ this thread started by poster called "the_splooge"

flopson, Thursday, 17 October 2013 00:00 (twelve years ago)

appropriate imo

J0rdan S., Thursday, 17 October 2013 00:04 (twelve years ago)

Tracer: well, I've only ever listened to it on spotify, which is probably not the best medium, but it just seems to drift endlessly, my eyes glaze over and I'm lost.

Still, it'll probably sound better on my stereo, so I'll head back tomorrow and grab it.

arctic mindbath (President of the People's Republic of Antarctica), Thursday, 17 October 2013 00:51 (twelve years ago)

If you need something extra to get you kickstarted on "Spanish joint" keep in mind that Charlie hunter is playing the bass and lead guitar parts simultaneously on a crazy custom guitar thing

It took me a lot of time to understand this album before it became the greatest thing ever.

Yeah it's not really THAT immediate. Although if the groove of Devils Pie doesnt move you from the jump then something may be really wrong with you.
