hmm idk actually. there's something brilliant about this. everything i'm reading about danny brown persuades me i'd go apeshit over the previous album
― i assume "Little Joey" (imago), Tuesday, 28 January 2014 00:16 (ten years ago) link
You might.
― Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 28 January 2014 00:18 (ten years ago) link
actually am rly rly rly getting to enjoy this
― i assume "Little Joey" (imago), Tuesday, 28 January 2014 00:19 (ten years ago) link
"Adderall Admiral" builds an entire track off of different segments of This Heat's "Horizontal Hold," with a Hawkwind sample thrown in for good measure.
i am listening the shit out of this album @ some pt
― i assume "Little Joey" (imago), Tuesday, 28 January 2014 00:24 (ten years ago) link
rme at "pop-rap ilxfodder" but you might enjoy the source of the 'Torture' beat's amazing sample:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FxfBg_m4-2o

ooh ty, think Torture was where the album went into overdrive
this is brilliant, yeah completely sold on D Brown, wda made my ballot easily (lol I haven't reached the 'pop' 2ndhalf yet tho lol)
― i assume "Little Joey" (imago), Tuesday, 28 January 2014 00:32 (ten years ago) link
actually forget my earlier suggestion, listen to some arty/confessional rap by my man:http://hellfyreclub.bandcamp.com/track/post-hoc-ergo-propter-hoc-for-schopenhauer
― festival culture (Jordan), Tuesday, 28 January 2014 00:35 (ten years ago) link
am forgetting no suggestions, as intimated earlier, but thanks
Danny Brown album not quite challenging Clipping as my number one rap of '13 but it's giving Death Grips a real tussle for second
― i assume "Little Joey" (imago), Tuesday, 28 January 2014 00:37 (ten years ago) link
i'm sure danny brown appreciates your support.
(i found Clipping unlistenable tbh)
― festival culture (Jordan), Tuesday, 28 January 2014 00:42 (ten years ago) link
whole album - masterpiece. if anything gets stronger near the end
― in fact, do read if you hate me (imago), Tuesday, 28 January 2014 01:01 (ten years ago) link
factory floor - can't follow up danny brown
and reeks of james murphy
and uh
no
^^^the sort of post that demonstrates why I'm posting all this here rather than on the albumzpoll thread
― in fact, do read if you hate me (imago), Tuesday, 28 January 2014 01:16 (ten years ago) link
'fall back' as feat. in the traxpoll definitely the best thing here by a fair way on a rapid skimthru
― in fact, do read if you hate me (imago), Tuesday, 28 January 2014 01:17 (ten years ago) link
is this ciara a concept album about her new romance
― in fact, do read if you hate me (imago), Tuesday, 28 January 2014 01:30 (ten years ago) link
opening track, just over breakup, gonna 'have us a good time', can see where this is going
i guess the fact it has a *concept* (according to this quick interpretation) means i'll have to listen to all of it
― in fact, do read if you hate me (imago), Tuesday, 28 January 2014 01:31 (ten years ago) link
think i get this more than i once might have
― in fact, do read if you hate me (imago), Tuesday, 28 January 2014 01:39 (ten years ago) link
'so turnt up' is kinda amazing
― in fact, do read if you hate me (imago), Tuesday, 28 January 2014 01:55 (ten years ago) link
yeah that was a super solid album with elements of euphoric self-celebration that I won't deny
told a nice li'l story there has ciara, a story of her heart
parquet courts, o rlllly
― in fact, do read if you hate me (imago), Tuesday, 28 January 2014 02:11 (ten years ago) link
this halfasses the raggedy garage-indie thing. needs to me muuuch raggedier. way too zine-ready, too prepackaged. eugh. enough.

i think i would find this music less loathsome if i wasn't listening to it; hence, bring on k michelle
― in fact, do read if you hate me (imago), Tuesday, 28 January 2014 02:16 (ten years ago) link
Interested in this one.
― Spottie, Tuesday, 28 January 2014 02:23 (ten years ago) link
lol hai spottie. what's allthis bs DiS indie doin' in the ILX poll lol
k michelle is pleasingly off-kilter so far, the first two tracks have both got weird production elements that play against her relatively straight vocal bat rly intriguingly - waiting to see how she develops. comes off as delightfully schizophrenic (sorry if that's an insensitive use of language erryone)
lol this next track is a fkn quasi-beatlesy chamber rnb thing :D
― in fact, do read if you hate me (imago), Tuesday, 28 January 2014 02:27 (ten years ago) link
also her lyrics are much weirder than her delivery - kinda mad, but deadpan
also a bit mad @ u spottie as despite knowing me a li'l bit u did not send me email after email with 'danny brown' as subject and no other text at all
― in fact, do read if you hate me (imago), Tuesday, 28 January 2014 02:30 (ten years ago) link
predictably, 'pay my bills' :D

'sometimes' was fkn epic, but then this
awesome
matt dc not otm
ah so she's a reality tv star from outside the usual canon, or at least her star has been made unconventionally
it shows, and i think it's to her benefit - this follows no formula except her own extremely idiosyncratic dream-logic
― in fact, do read if you hate me (imago), Tuesday, 28 January 2014 02:48 (ten years ago) link
well, that was...something. faded a bit in last 2 trax but had already made its point. good record!

*slumps face into hand* ok you guys, seriously now
― in fact, do read if you hate me (imago), Tuesday, 28 January 2014 03:09 (ten years ago) link
right, so, i won't be doing this tomorrow. might just do one round-up on the actual pollthread. today's albums have been of terrifyingly and unexpectedly high quality & i'm fairly certain lightning won't strike 2ce in that regard
― in fact, do read if you hate me (imago), Tuesday, 28 January 2014 03:12 (ten years ago) link
i don't even know, I've displaced myself so far away from anything (new) with a guitar of late. Just don't care enough to even get mad about it you know. List is pretty cool so far tbf. Some metal, some r&b, some indie, some pop, some raps.
SORRY. Wouldn't think it would be up your street but excited now cos I feel like this expanded pallet of yours is a good opportunity to make some good recs I woulda kept quiet about in the past.
― Spottie, Tuesday, 28 January 2014 05:02 (ten years ago) link
What did you think of K Michelle VSOP?
― Spottie, Tuesday, 28 January 2014 05:04 (ten years ago) link
Also not sure if you'll go backwards on Danny and get XXX but at least listen to this http://youtu.be/J--rO7FP16U at some point. Maybe his hardest raps and the production has so much tension, not sure it ever really releases.
― Spottie, Tuesday, 28 January 2014 05:14 (ten years ago) link
imago have you heard the Darkside record yet
its got a dece chance of placing in albums poll so i dont want to scoop it too hard but seems like something you'd enjoy
― ciderpress, Tuesday, 28 January 2014 05:46 (ten years ago) link
imago since I'm always accusing you of only listening to metal that fits your art school aesthetic ima gonna recommend you a few albums and Id love to see you live blog the results in your own time. I think even smithy would approve of this selection.

in your own time dude. But its *important* albums that more or less invented sub-genres and what a purist might say you need to know.

Since I'm thinking about them and their now pretty official demise as a band. This should be within your hard edged comfort zone, I think.
Company of Thieves - Gorgeous/Grotesque
(Much of what they play sounds nothing like this, incidentally.)
And from a very different direction. Perhaps I should come up with proggier Eddie Palmieri (it does exist), but this is so great and you can't deny there's quite a bit happening in it:
Eddie Palmieri - Puerto Rico
