BROCKHAMPTON

what's positive about bragging about sucking white cock?

what's not positive about it?

I'm only just now digging into all this mess. "Boogie" is retroactively my favorite track of 2017 (not really, but at least today).

yeah Boogie is pretty fantastic, definitely their best single

cannon is still my favourite track but it's not on any of their albums, probably because it's grandpa rap and/or too depressing

iridescence rules, feels like blonde except less deliberately half-formed

OFL sounds good

lots going on, interesting clash of aggressive synth sounds and a surprising amount of piano and strings

the album's all about those aggressive synths suddenly opening up into moments of beauty

Yeah I like this album a lot. It's not as immediately grabbing as Saturation III, but I like a bunch of the songs and the grime influences are a nice addition. Hate to say I miss Ameer because good riddance, but he was actually one of their best MCs, they don't have anyone else as lyrically interesting. Super likable band and album tho.

truly mystified that so many ilxors are drawn to these guys

The inconsistency fascinates me. A mediocre rapper followed by a good one, terrible stresses and good lines, musique concrète followed by keyboards/synths. They have no idea what they're doing, and the strength of their queer politics often exceeds their abilities to express them, but this is a strength too.

For me the let's-put-on-a-show vibe of the whole thing is appealing, even when component parts are flat (which plenty are).

i....... cannot believe that adults listen to this music

Probably half of all musicians don’t know what they’re doing, so I’m not sure how good of a description that is

Haven’t listened to the new one but i do agree they are incredibly inconsistent

I like their weirdness though

enjoying ROADRUNNER: NEW LIGHT, NEW MACHINE - feels a little more thought-through / fully formed than the other albums/tapes of theirs I've heard

No chatter about this album? It is...brief.

I listened to it tonight. It sounds nice but I think they’ve a little bit too much found a vibe whereas a big part of what I liked about then was their unpredictability and random shit. So it’s most probably a better record, and most probably deserving of repeat listens, but nothing stood out at first.
