Which artists legacies have improved/worsened during the 2010s?

You’re forgetting “Clear Signal From Cairo (Bob Clearmountain mix) – feat. Macy Gray & Mark McGrath”

When I first started posting here like 5 years ago y’all were posting like crazy about Amanda Palmer

i don’t really get this thread.. what are the artists who’s reputation is the same

The Beatles

is Brice Hornsby down or up? His new album is horrible and it has bon iver on it.

i don’t really get this thread.. what are the artists who’s reputation is the same

uhhhhhh really

Uhhh, radiohead’s feels the same?

do people still like blonde?

blondie

what about los lobos? probably no one cared about them in the 00s either

whatever, have fun

With how perfect and sterile most pop/electronic/hip hop production has sounded this decade, I predict the next will try to make it sound “more imperfect”. So yeah, no autotune, use of live instruments instead of synthesized ones

Such optimism is contagious.

Amanda Palmer's one of those artists whose apparent newsworthiness and media profile have always seemed to massively dwarf any interest in her actual music.

Also I feel like the reputation of a lot of backackerish/conscious rap - Mos Def, The Roots etc - has been gradually recovering for a while after being very unfashionable a decade ago.

There's also been a sense for a while that younger dance music critics are absolutely desperate to move away from house and techno despite their enduring popularity and total ubiquity. The latest manifestation of that is the return of breakbeats to the sort of scenes where they would have been criminally unfashionable for most of the 00s.

(Ricardo Villalobos definitely down by the way but Autechre are definitely up)

i don’t really get this thread.. what are the artists who’s reputation is the same

Pink Floyd iirc

Obviously the thread is about notable examples

Pink Floyd=RULES (always)

Liz Phair’s profile has risen from where it was in the 2000s

Yeah, I don't remember much fanfare when I saw her in 2010, but she instantly sold out two big shows here last year.

Boredoms haven't released anything in a decade, so I guess out of sight out of mind.

and the stuff they were doing was just goddamn drum circles, i can go for some serious hippie shit but drum circles will never be cool

I thought people were really into that? I thought it was pretty exciting but I only heard it at one gig.

Everybody loved Boadrum! But it was extremely not for me. My enjoyment of that band shifted heavily over to OOIOO over the past decade

I am unable to suspend disbelief when faced with that explosion of joy at the beginning of Vision Creation Newsun.

Is that one of the drum circle albums?

More so than its predecessors but not quite.

VCN is 2000, first Boadrum was 2007

death metal up
j-pop up
noise down

boredoms seem like one of those bands that still have a pretty dedicated fanbase but haven't picked up too many new fans since they slowed down. they don't seem particularly 'relevant' at the moment, yeah. the diehards are still into it but they're a little older now and there are less young people at, like, yoshimi shows now.

one of the oldest crowds I've ever seen was when i went to a "beastie boys story" gig this year where mike d and ad rock told stories. almost nobody under 35.

Suspect Flaming Lips are way down from their Yoshimi-era peak.

I don't know if you are saying what I think you're saying but I feel the thing that you typed exactly. I really love Taiga! There is a song by either OOIOO/Boredoms that's a jam while somebody falls all over the black keys on a piano and I don't remember what track it is (help me remember)

"Garage rock" down? Jack White ... down? Up? No idea.

2007 boadrum was incredibly powerful I almost burst into tears during one of the explosive improv solo sections of it.

Suspect Flaming Lips are way down from their Yoshimi-era peak.

great one - very nearly nobody cares about their new records, and Wayne's assholeishness and racism has actively repelled plenty of those who would, but this gets masked by them still putting on a big, entertaining show & thus getting booked for festivals

Coyne is racist? I haven't kept up.

I used to love Flaming Lips circa Soft Bulletin but I sort of can't stand them now

Jack White is probably less relevant but has a weirdly psycho core following that eats up everything he does, like Ween type thing

The Soft Bulletin is probably the album that has most sharply plummeted in my appreciation between when it came out and now.

With the Grateful Dead thing (which is full on still in ascendant mode), while it started around the time that Animal Collective was huge and unashamed to cite (and sample) the GD, it has crossed over big time to seemingly be kinda be cool across the board. While this isn't surprising to me, the upsurge of "jam" adjacency for certain bands is a bit, but we'll see how long that lasts. To be clear, I am not talking about the musicians choosing to improvise / jam out on parts of songs, but the use of the term "jam" not being a complete anathema to these bands, as it was for a long time.

Coyne is racist? I haven't kept up.

not super-duper deep-down racist, but he fired the Lips longtime drummer over the latter's objections to the Republican governor's daughter dancing onstage with them, and instagramming offstage with Wayne, in indigenous American headdresses and war regalia with mocking captions

At 9:54 p.m., he texted me again pressing the headdress photo issue. In my desire to have this done and over with, I apologized and said I wouldn't do it again. He responded, "… Ha ha… You so full of shit … You're a fucking coward !! Go stick up for your Indian friends if its so important to you !!" It devolved from there, with him later texting, "I think….. I am gonna make it so your 'beliefs' no longer have any association with the Flaming Lips .." More name calling followed with him finally sending me a text at 3:49 a.m. on March 20 that said I was fired. Along the way, he called me a "nazi punk coward Internet bully"

His divorce was messy too

Then there was his fight with Erykah Badu...

https://www.billboard.com/articles/news/483668/erykah-badu-violated-by-nsfw-bathtub-video-ignites-feud-with-wayne-coyne

Flaming lips is a good one, cause Wayne’s weird behavior and starfucking has coincided with the group making less and less interesting records.

Peak Coyne outrage was maybe 5 years ago. What's he been up to? He got remarried, right?

I just saw an army guy in his 30s blasting Sinatra out of his Range Rover

ok flex on them

I listen to music in my car and it's too hot to not open the windows, passing cyclists and pedestrians seem a bit surprised by ethnographic recordings from the 1920s, slightly less so by Ellington and Armstrong

and instagramming offstage with Wayne, in indigenous American headdresses and war regalia

Weird how literally everybody, including ilx0rs, give Billy Corgan a pass for the exact same type of shit

guh? ilx hands corgans ass to him regularly

not at all my thing, but my understanding is that pumpkins fans have long ago come to terms with corgan being an insufferable tit 24/7

Zero ppl called him out on this
