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).

Probably half of all musicians don’t know what they’re doing, so I’m not sure how good of a description that isHaven’t listened to the new one but i do agree they are incredibly inconsistentI 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.
