Blur - The Magic Whip
add ur favorite album
>>60281017
That's not really overrated
it's barely rated
Divers is the most reddit album to come out this year.
2814 isn't overrated desu It's the pinnacle of vaporware
multi love
>>60281040
I agree personally but I didn't want to cause controversy.
>>60281046
It's not even fucking vaporwave you viraller.
It's a mediocre ambient album.
>>60281046
That's not pic related
>>60281046
>>60281063
both garbage
>>60281010
TPAB is not overrated but I won't complain too much
>>60281037
on reddit they love blur
>>60281087
>TPAB is not overrated
>>60281010
>still using reddit as an adjective
Really guys? I thought we started to grow out of this and try to actually form and explain our own opinions instead of relying on a buzzword. Not just a buzzword no, but a buzzword that can't even be pinned down because nobody fucking knows what it's supposed to mean other than "reddit.com".
You might as well call albums random meaningless shit like "tuney" or "mewt". Like pic related here, is overrated mewt tuney bullshit.
>>60281063
That's not pic related
>>60281155
so tuney and mewt are synonymous with reddit?
very meaningful words imo
>>60281010
Can we please stop using reddit as an insult, yea, the site sucks and the users are insufferable, but you faggots do know when you say something's "reddit tier" or whathaveyou you just sound like babies and your opinions are completly disregarded.

>>60281315
Not particularly reddit desu
It's kinda shit, but not Overrated Reddit Bullshit 2015
just add anything that pitchfork liked from this year
maybe that new album with the stupid album cover that has some japanese writing on the sidebar, idk what it's called
>>60281328
This
it would fit in a Overrated Fedora Bullshit 2015 chart though
>>60281046
2814 reminded me more tim hecker than vaporwave....
>>60281274
The problem isn't that it's tied to reddit, it's that I have NO FUCKING CLUE what you are saying when you describe something as "reddit".
Hell, pic related is Digg: the album.
And fuck, even if you did it wouldn't matter a damn because the next bloke who walks into this thread and says it I guarantee means somethin completely different. Now wipe that smug expression off your Chevy Chase you freewheeler.
>>60281274
name a non-overrated major release from this year then
>>60281367
love some shins desu senpai
>>60281367
reddit is anything that i dont like
>>60281336
just found the album i didnt know the name of
add this, theres no way this shit can be good
>>60281367
Reddit is the embodiment of trendy liberalism and every album on the chart is part of either one or both of those descriptors.
>>60281391
“Hipster” is a term co-opted for use as a meaningless pejorative in order to vaguely call someone else’s authenticity into question and, by extension, claim authenticity for yourself.
It serves no conversational function and imparts no information, save for indicating the opinions and preferences of the speaker.
Meanwhile, a market myth has sprung up around the term, as well as a cultural bogeyman consisting of elusive white 20-somethings who wear certain clothes (but no one will agree on what), listen to certain music (no one can agree on this either), and act a certain way (you’ve probably sensed the pattern on your own).
You can’t define what “that kind of behavior or fashion or lifestyle” actually is, nor will you ever be able to. That’s because you don’t use “hipster” to describe an actual group of people, but to describe a fictional stereotype that is an outlet for literally anything that annoys you.
The twist, of course, is that if it weren’t for your own insecurities, nothing that a “hipster” could do or wear would ever affect you emotionally. But you are insecure about your own authenticity - “Do I wear what I wear because I want to? Do I listen to my music because I truly like it? I’m certainly not like those filthy hipsters!” - so you project those feelings.
Suffice it to say, no one self-identifies as a hipster; the term is always applied to an Other, to separate the authentic Us from the inauthentic, “ironic” Them.
tl;dr: if you believe hipsters exist, you are a plebeian.
>>60281377
For that you have to define "major release" for me.
Universal Themes would work.

now go back to reddit where they can upvote that
>>60281087
>TPAB is not overrated
It's a mediocre rap album that a shit load of people are basically saying is the best album to come out this year. On top of that it's even really popular with normies. How is it not overrated?
>>60281449
/pol/tards out senpai
>>60281046
It isn't vaporwave. I could release a death metal album with japanese symbols on the cover in a city at night and you all would call it vaporwave.
Also it's a shit overrated ambient release.

The liberalism was irrelevant to this discussion, I'll agree; but all of the albums are just trendy shit. They're buzzed by publications or personalities and redditors flock to them.
>>60281507
it's a pasta you dunce
>>60281010
Why are you people so obsessed with Reddit? How do you even know what they listen to if you don't browse Reddit? And most importantly, why are you talking about Reddit here?
>>60281551
>The liberalism was irrelevant to this discussion, I'll agree; but all of the albums are just trendy shit. They're buzzed by publications or personalities and redditors flock to them.
That's literally what people here do, too.
>>60281437
>add this, theres no way this shit can be good
> having an opinion on an album you've never listened to
>>60281449
i think you don't even know what liberalism is. You used that word just to sound cool and smart.
>>60281591
Those people are redditors.
Reddit is literally the 100% cause of /mu/'s shitty discussion as of late. /r/hiphopheads and /r/indieheads
>>60281551
so basically they're not liberal, and you said that because you're politically reactive in music discussions?
>>60281511
> le /pol/ boogeyman meme
>adds great, critically-acclaimed albums
>"overrated"
Fuck off with your hipster bullshit, OP.
>>60281507
jesus christ you are stupid
>>60281595
it looks like it will be shit tbf
>>60281087
>TPAB is not overrated
lmfao
PBVSGR is really not that bad, 7/10
now this>>60281437 shit right here man... fuck
>>60281507
> not recognizing a pasta
Newfag please leave.
>>60281010
grimes is more p4k than reddit
i'd add that mac demarco mini
>>60281595
dude
I don't have to listen to that to know it's complete shit
have you ever listened to an entire hopsin album? well I don't have to in order to know that it's 100% trash
>>60281508
Because it's actually good, you moron. Do you actually think every major music critic/website is highly rating it just for rating's sake?
OP, shitposting like this is why sensible people leave /mu/. You're pretty much the epitome of why this board has gone to shit.
OP you are a True Patrician with excellent taste :)
>>60281551
>They're buzzed by publications or personalities and redditors flock to them.
...They're buzzed by publications or personalities and PEOPLE IN GENERAL flock to them, dimwit. Including people here. It's literally that fucking simple.
>>60281627
note that everyone who does this only ever says 'they're trendy' when asked why they don't like them. because they're literally incapable of providing any other criticism
>>60281555
>>60281654
>>60281658
i've never seen that pasta before, well maybe I have once but I didn't recognize it
sorry lads
>>60281618
I would argue the liberal contigent of reddit is more often the face of the website.
The conservative side is mainly just /v/posters or eventual /v/posters.
>>60281683
Sensible people with terrible taste.
>>60281673
>I don't have to listen to that to know it's complete shit
> I don't have to listen to any song to know whether the song is good
> I just magically know it's not good because album cover
>>60281710
i meant to quote >>60281650 not >>60281654
>>60281063
That's the worst fucking album try again.
>>60281716
I don't even like the OP albums. I'm just annoyed at buzzword shitposting instead of actual discussion of music. You're honestly just another monkey in the zoo throwing his feces around at other apes.
>>60281623
not boogeyman, shitposters
>>60281755
>I'm just annoyed at buzzword shitposting instead of actual discussion of music.
I discuss meaningful music all the time.
the OP albums are not worth discussion
>>60281677
I never said it was bad. But is it the best album that came out this year? Hell no. It's an alright rap album but publications have been treating it like it's the best rap album in years. Hence why I said it's overrated. In order for something to be overrated it has to be rated highly by a lot of places in the first place.
>>60281737
dont argue with me, that album is shit
and guess what, I just checked out the track Slumlord Rising
it was complete shit just like I knew it would be
>>60281797
If you go in thinking an album is shit, 7 times out 10 it will be because your opinions are slanted that way.
>>60281783
The OP albums are just albums that get a lot of hype on /mu/ or Pitchfork or Fantano. This is just some anti-popularity whining. I don't actually see any critique of the music itself, you're just baiting replies because you know this thread will hit the post limit and that makes you feel good inside.
Maybe start with one album, give some solid reasons as to why it sucks, and then you'll get some concrete discussion. You're currently just attention whoring on a Mongolian goat trading web forum instead of being a decent human being.
>>60281797
Kek. I wasn't even arguing that the album was good. You were just being a massive faggot by forming am opinion before you knew shit about the album.
Also I dunno if you're meming or shitposting but slumlord rising is probably the worst song on the album.
>>60281716
what does reddit's political disposition have to do with any of those records, though. why are you even going on reddit to know this?
>>60281792
TPAB is one of the best hip hop albums released in decades. It warrants the multiple stellar reviews it has gotten.
>>60281863
i searched neon indian on youtube and that was the first track that came up
>>60281010
Fuck off already Boldfaure
>>60281831
>get some concrete discussion
Here are three threads now.
>>60282485
>>60283043
>>60282732
Empty and void of discussion.
>>60281797
I think the Neon Indian album is really great, personally.
>>60281063
lol dude this album sucks in its own unique way which is why I secretly love it
>>60281010
I agree except PBVSGR and In Colour aren' overrated at all. Still Reddit-core, but they're neat
earl, beach house, mac memarco
>>60281010
TPAB was great, though
>>60285419
kill yourself
>>60285511
You first babe
>>60281010
Does reddit really like Panda Bear?
baka desu senpai gonna go purge my library
seriously though TPAB was good. I'll accept it's overrated because it's not really a 10/10, but it was definitely really good. Probably my favorite Kendrick release slightly beating out Section.80
>>60285623
They only know him as "that guy from that Daft Punk song"
>>60281010
are people really listening to deafheaven on reddit now? idk it seems like when it comes to metal reddit is like metallica or bust
>>60281010
Agree with this list
