I've neglected to listen to Fiona Apple for too long, I need to give that a shot
Who would you compare her songwriting to?
>>60857025
hard to compare to anyone
just try this song

she also has really uncomfy music videos
Destroyer - Kaputt
>>60856906
Why wouldn't you like Asunder, Sweet and Other Distress? It sounds very similar to Allelujah, and the Drone parts are better IMO.

a lot of gy!be fans aren't into asunder because it's more drone and less dramatic post-rock. allelujah is probably the least popular gy!be record for similar reasons.
i think asunder is really tight.
>>60857174
i just miss the samples man
Planning For Burial: Leaving and Have A Nice Life: The Unnatural World are favorites too.
semi-unpopular opinion: f#a#infinity is one of the weaker GY!BE albums.
LYSF>Yanqui U.X.O. = Asunder, Sweet>f#a#>Allelujah! - i.m.o.

Maybe you're right, I just find it quite dull.
Allelujah is in my opinion quite a change in tone for Godspeed; they don't usually sound as forceful and aggressive.
This is coming from someone who doesn't like LYSF that much (too weepy for me).
I find the melodies on Allelujah to be really empowering and I find it more easy to connect with them. I can't really recall much of anything about Asunder, and I find it to be too slow (even for Godspeed lol)
I'm going to relisten to it now and give it a more attentive listen but that's how I feel for now.

Do you like other post rock bands?
What are your favourite post rock records if so?
I love f#a#, I'd be interested to hear what you think of it or why you prefer the others
best drone/postrock album from 2015
>>60857332
Nah that album fucking sucks dude
Not even a competition.
Followed by Shaking the Habitual and MBDTF
>>60856906
Slow Riot for New Zero Kanada is their best work.
>>60857377
I would like to share my opinion, but I don't know what album that it
>>60857304
I love Talk Talk and Slint. I'm definitely a fan of GY!BE and I like f#a#, I just never got hooked on it like I did with their other albums. The first song is awesome though.
>>60857437
Slowriot is great, and Moya is the best song Godspeed has done. But overall I personally feel:
LYSF>Slow Riot>F#A#>ADBA>ASOD>Yanqui
All their albums are fantastic though.

>Moya is the best song Godspeed has done
i fuck w you anon. but i think storm is on par, the initial build up is so fucking emotive.
>>60857472
its not a real album
LYSF>Slow Riot=f#a#>ADBA>Yanqui>ASOD
'Allelujah lacks samples, also i don't care that much for the two drone tracks.
F#A# = Slow Riot > LYSF > Yanqui = Asunder > Allelujah
bump
this is a good thread
