so your boring appraisal might be closer to the truth

i like it a bunch but i am a mellow person

well, worth it for that one song tbh

follakzoid are nay bad but k3rr how the flaming fuck did u allow this in the metal poll :D

he allowed Melt Banana in the metal poll, which to me is o_O

M-B feature extremely loud guitars, noize, yelped vox...it fits

this just isn't metal in any way at all, my god! but it's not bad for a completely derivative krautabout

M-B feature extremely loud guitars, noize, yelped vox...it fits

So we can vote for punk bands in metal polls now?

fair call tbh

bit bored of follakzoid - strikes me as excellent background music but doesn't reward intense listening too well for me

like, circle do this stuff wayyy better

Kelela - some v interesting production on this! She's not a v engaging presence at all tho. Listening for the beats, everything else just kinda washes over me

Fun fact: the building on the cover of Physical Graffiti is also featured in this classic video.

sorry kelela, u ain't doin' it for me any more

u never rly were altho u got some dece production contacts clearly

Cut Copy - *vomits blood, dies*

going to play the first 10 seconds of every song on this album

did they just sing "shine brother shine on, shine brother in the sun"

permaban

oh this music makes me ill

y'know that when something is permabanned, you stop listening to it, right?

i just had to make sure

you tempbanned it in other words

or yellow carded it

unless cut copy created a sock account and snuck into your ears pretending to be a new band?

f(x) give me the idea of bandname mashup f(n+x) and tbh i think that this would also sound kinda rad :D

obviously the music is much better than bloody cut copy (who are *now* permabanned), gonna give this a good few trax

i'd know cut copy in a millisecond. actually no i wdnt, so much 80's-actin' bilge out there. shit.

f(x) are p good fun i gotta concede, and the music's well put-together, got a bit of depth n craft, not all major-key harmonisin'

somewhere, somehow, frank k0gan is otm abt this lot

so they didn't pull a meowsy mcdermott on you?

no, they did not farcottonloco inspector slade this shit up & end up being f(x)

so this danny brown album is 2 weeks long

oh shit

what the hell :D

this isn't yer pop-rap ilxfodder, this is hard & tite

now it is yer pop-rap ilxfodder

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

You might.

actually am rly rly rly getting to enjoy this

"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

rme at "pop-rap ilxfodder" but you might enjoy the source of the 'Torture' beat's amazing sample:

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)

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

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'm sure danny brown appreciates your support.

(i found Clipping unlistenable tbh)

whole album - masterpiece. if anything gets stronger near the end

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

'fall back' as feat. in the traxpoll definitely the best thing here by a fair way on a rapid skimthru

is this ciara a concept album about her new romance

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

think i get this more than i once might have

'so turnt up' is kinda amazing

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

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
