That would be Knife Man.
People Who Can Eat People is the best AJJ album by a LONG shot though.

>>60177773
Agreed on OAI. Both are good though.

better than literally only having lyrics senpam

People Who Can Eat People is awful. It sounds like novelty music.

how can anyone like this honestly

the lyrics are the only vaguely redeeming factor about this music and you can't even really consider lyrical content music in my opinion

also I hate his face

literally only having lyrics is better than literally having nothing

a capella is music sung using only voices

it doesn't just have lyrics, it has vocal harmonies and melodies

Radiohead is the blandest band I can think of, I'd rather listen to Creed or Grand Funk and God knows they're dull as shit, yet not as much as Radiohead
>>
>>60178007
They're okay as far as like radio rock goes I guess. Bassist is good.

How is he overrated? He isn't particularly well known, and most of his work has received mixed reception. There's a world outside of mu. Are you sure you don't just dislike his music?
>>
Doolittle is overrated and it doesn't have shit on Surfer Rosa and Trompe Le Monde. Also, Trompe Le Monde is their best album.

Mbv > Isn't Anything

That Ceres and Calipso in Time is boring and awfully produced

Murmuure is just ok

This. They only get hate because of the fanbase and some really bad lyrics

How is that a controversial opinion here? I thought /mu/ hates both Tool and Porcupine Tree.

>Dream Theater are a good band
Maybe they were once but their recent albums are utter trash.

>Elliott Smith is far better than John Darnielle
Again, how is that a controversial opinion? Elliott Smith is basically /mu/core.

>Andrew Jackson Jihad are shit instrumentally and tryhard lyrically
Totally agreed. Fuck that band.

FKA Twigs is the most innovative pop musician out there right now with actual sales and mainstream recognition.

Kendrick Lamar is the perfect rapper.

Weezer's new songs are still shit and trying to win back the Blue/Pink album fan boys.
>>
>>60178539
>Weezer's new songs are still shit and trying to win back the Blue/Pink album fan boys
this is pretty damn obvious tho

I agree with those 3 opinions actually, lmao. I don't love Kendrick but I guess he's really good
>>
The thug and bling periods between the early 90s and late 00s were the dark age of hip hop, Kanye is hip hop's saviour, and trap is its rebirth as a better, more creative form.

wow

i've never seen those opinions in my life

i would have never thought someone would think that

wowwwwwww this guy is in another leveeeeel of controversial guys

i haven't listened to Weezer in ages but that's pretty damn sad

They're not great, but if you're telling me they're not a step up from every album after Maladroit, you're kidding yourself.

Swans is one of the worst bands I've ever heard. I could barely get through soundtracks for the blind because it was so bad.
>>
>>60179047
I've never seen people outside of here even mention him, and i travel within the experimental circles, like the other person said, you probably just dislike his stuff.
>>
>>60179150
your joking. critical acclaim =/= popularity. no shit he isnt mainstream but he is taken very seriously as an artist. i study sound art i wouldnt say he is overrated but he certainly is very highly rated and receives essential unversal praise when really he hasnt developed any new ideas simply exploring well treaded waters of tape manipulation and sound collage.
>>
Transatlantic and The Flower Kings are my favorite bands
>>
Loveless is a shitty album. My Bloody Valentine is a shitty band. Shoegaze is a shitty genre.
>>
>>60179975
Bands like the Flower Kings and Transatlantic? The DEATH of
progressive music. These are the bands that reinforce every prejudice
people have about progressive rock: old-fashioned, pompous,
pretentious, hung-up on sci-fi concepts - that for me is rubbish. But
there's a new wave of bands that for me are being influenced just as
much by hip-hop as they are King Crimson or Godspeed You Black
Emperor and bands like us as well, I hope.

For me, Transatlantic and the Flower Kings - and I have heard these
bands, unfortunately - they're following the blueprint from 1972 so
closely; it's completely pointless and redundant. They're never going
to better the originals, anyway - why bother? Whatever's going around
should be part of their musical vocabulary.

I don't particularly dig generic music, whether it's hardcore metal
or hip-hop, even down to the prog bands you mentioned. They're
following a formula way too closely. For me,being progressive is
about taking the word at face value: it a band is going to try to be
progressive, they shouldn't be looking at the past - they should be
looking at everything that's going on around them now,
from hip-hop to trip-hop to death metal to trance. The
word 'progressive' is about the FUTURE."
