is there a Death grips album that plaid wearing f*** hasnt given a 9?

Don’t think he liked the project with the d*** on it and Govt Plates as much

complete opposite to me. Amnesiac was their best use of experimentation. Largely leaving their previous formula of rock music, they created spacey, jazzy, messy soundscapes for Thom to perfectly glide over. Thom sounds like another instrument and songs like "Like Spinning Plates" where he's warbling over a weird ass disconnected rhythm are so good imo.

I never hated it tbh. But yeah it was one of those albums that was so highly gassed up that I remmeber hearing it a few times and rly liking it but just never going back to it cuz of all the constant hype with It

But yeah you listen to the project, and it really is deserving of that praise. Pretty much the peak of that indie rock sound that was later taken over by the hipsters like Phoenix, The Strokes, Arctic Monkeys

No Surprises >>>>

Scaruffi so over the top and dramatic with some of his buzz-phrases

"Amnesiac (Capitol, 2001), turned out to be actually a significant improvement over Kid A's random cliches."

Reading Scaruffi writing about Futures discography is p much what I expected from an out of touch white pedo apologist trying to understand modern music

you said it was decent when it came out

even gave it a iirc

Scaruffi was described by some friends and colleagues as a pedophile. His friend Dan Morrell, the New York Times journalist who profiled him in 2006, described him as "pedo-esque", saying:

"Every once in a while there'd be something about children and I'd be, 'But Piero, I have children,' and he was like 'Yes, yes, I don't mean yours.'

He had a definite Pedosexual streak, the belief that there should be no age limits and that he should marry a 12-year old", a view he appears to have continued to maintain throughout his later years.

According to Morrell, Scaruffi once attacked a prepubescent girl in a restaurant with a smashed wineglass, saying "I wanna f*** kids".
During a lecture in Berlin, the audience rioted after Scaruffi sang the Oingo Boingo song "Little Girls", including a verse omitted since 1981 for its pedophilic associations.

As soon as I saw someone here bring up that he Wrote an article basically insinuating that 12 year old kids should be able to make a decision to date grown adults, it made me understand why he has the opinions he does

yeah that was paint but theres a bunch of mills around like the one in the credits

also a town pub where people casually brawl used to be anyways

Lucky is pure zenith

the mastering feels off to me, hinders it

yeah can we stop discussing this guys opinions pls

its from Nico's Wikipedia about her being a racist lol. Someone just switched her name with his and changed the words

dude has been a walking contradiction too, pretty terrible reviews from the 2010s... especially in rap music

on Kanye West:

It is embarrassing that so much would be written about such insignificant music (not to mention his utterly silly lyrics portrayed as memorable poetry) while thousands of great classical, jazz, rock and hip-hop musicians barely get a few lines of discussion.

West was one of the most overrated artists of his era

but in earlier reviews...

on his College Dropout review:

This is supremely intelligent, creative and trans-stylistic postmodernism.

and for MBDTF

West came up with a better focused and integrated music/text melody/rap message in the anthemic and dreamy chant of Dark Fantasy and in the driving and hypnotic lament of Gorgeous. This method achieved a new peak of pathos in Power

on his review for TPAB:

This is a superficial and, ultimately, middle-of-the-road album from an artist who lacks the visceral energy of Public Enemy and Tackhead while also lacking the poetic depth of Kanye West and the musical genius of El-P.

so.... is he uninspired and has no meaningful lyrics?... or does he still have poetic depth? I understand the hateful comments are on his most recent reviews of ye and Jesus is King, but you can't call someone one of the most overrated artists of his generation while giving him some of the best reviewed rap reviews in your writing

Throwback to when he tried to argue that marrying kids is more sane than gay marriage

f*** i knew that actually, just read about the wine glass assault thing like a week ago

just glancing over some of the points he makes and it's disgusting and laughably out of touch

TPAB > Public Enemy’s discog tbh

i dont particularly love or hate either of them

Yikes that Meg/Cardi song is embarrassing

Love It Takes a Nation of Millions...

But TPAB was like a natural evolution of that sound and just much better performed as a rap record thanks to a far wider array of sounds and influences and flows (huge issue with a lot of 80s and 90s rap was just how stale most of the flows and delivery was tbh)

yea, much of the 80s rap music is plagued by basic and stilted flows... PE had the message and lyrics behind it at least, BEasties Boys had the energy... Rakim was the best of the bunch
