The mind behind King Krule, Zoo Kid, Edgar the Beatmaker, is one that’s plagued with existential dread and dissonant chords from a tinny guitar. Put em together and you get the most creative and thought provoking music of the 2010’s. Sure it takes some diligence to start to enjoy some of his older stuff but they’re a treat once you’re down that rabbit hole, and his newest stuff is undisputedly amazing. The OOZ is a certified sad classic. From what I’ve listened to on Man Alive! It seems it’ll follow nicely.

Stoned again a crazy track

? it leaked?

yessir

The locust speaks truth, op real

yeah, believe that Rock Bottom solidified that for me as well

and that was 6-7 years ago

It’s taking every ounce of willpower in my body to not listen to the leak

negl if this man keeps evolving he’ll become the new age tom waits

This f***ing avi

The only Marshall I acknowledge

While I love archie, “by a long shot” considering the best of the best that came up in the 2010s in his “new-school” class is a bit much. He def top tier tho

He's been around for a decade now fam he just started very young. His writing on 6 Feet is mind blowing for a 15 year old.

Can’t think of another young person making music comparable to his

just listened, this some Easy Easy level material

been the goat for almost a decade now

aoty inbound

Should specify by “young” because new school considering he blew up in the 2010s would put him in with Frank, Hiatus Kaiyote, James Blake, Toro Y Moi and etc

Archy got one of the strongest pens no doubt.

He’s on way different s*** from them though. Just as emotionally available as frank or James, but more relatable in a lot of places imo. And his live instrumentation speaks for itself.

hes like if thom yorke kidnapped Tom Waits and ate his soul

Way different =\= better though. Everyone on that list is a better vocalist than him, Hiatus Kaiyote’s composition and arrangements blow him out the water imo. Frank and James bring just as much emotion in their music. James and Toro just as good of a producer as he is(James arguably better). Nai Palm and Toro just as good of a guitarist. Frank’s pen is on the same level. Etc etc. I’m just saying “by a long shot” is a stretch to me. To each their own though.

Fair enough mate well argued. Music is so sick dude
