>>60892147

Can you imagine finding out your son listens to Joanna Newsom? Wouldn't that just ruin the holidays for everyone
>>60892147
everything that isn't dadrock
>>60892817
>Bjork with a harp
>good
Pick one friend.
>>60892214
I also agree with this.
Unless you are a big NTR fan you can't really enjoy this album.
Everything dadrock
>>60892978
>>Bjork with a harp
>>good
lel fuck off
>>60892996
Man /mu/ reading comprehension is probably on the same level as /v/'s, how do you people even breathe?
>>60892817
you think Joanna is patrician? lel, neo-/mu/ everyone
>>60893014
what do you mean
>>60893021
I never said that :^0
>>60893014
how do you breathe with all those dicks shoved down your throat.
>>60893042
that's what you implied
>>60893060
>that's what you implied
how
>>60893021
/mu/ has liked Ys for a long time you melon.
>>60892978
>>Bjork with a harp
Joanna confirmed 2deep4u if that's what you think.
>>60893021
>>60892996
both the people you replied to dislike Joanna Newsom.
why so dum?
>>60893083
>all the people on /mu/ like "album"
>>60892860
are you insane
>>60893068
op said Y's is shit, you said he's a pleb for having this opinion
>>60893144
Non-pleb != patrician
>>60893130
yes anon, clearly, I'm insane
>>60893101
How is Joanna deep?
If you want to listen to something good that is /mu/core just listen to popol vuh or tom Waits.
>>60893168
>How is Joanna deep?
You tell me.
>>60893105
>>all the people on /mu/ like "album"

acceptable answers
>>60892978
>Unless you are a big NTR fan you can't really enjoy this album.
this, ladies and gentlemen, is a faggot.
I grabbed this album from the store just because it's considered /mu/core then I find out it's mediocre at best. I don't like it so fuck people who likes it.
>>60893410
its a neckbeard album, really.
>>60893262
>>60893278
>>60893180
These are great posts.
They add so much to the discussion.
>>60893526
>bait thread
>discussion
Okay friend
>>60893274
that still doesn't actually provide any valid criticism though does it?
I bet you listen to Mr. fucking Sporkle
>>60893350
they're all acceptable answers really, that's the whole point of music
>>60893801
are you retarded? you literally did the same thing
>>60893818
>implying the burden of proof is on me to defend it?
fuck that I'm calling him names
if he wants serious discussion, open serious discussion
>>60893840
>I'm calling him names
that's how you started off, are you seriously trying to cop the highground here?
MPP is just boring "experimental" "pop." Any worthwhile sounds get stretched out 2 minutes too long, any truly experimental ideas and harmonies get held back by trying to be "psychedelic" and "pop." if you're trying to synthesize the old with the new, at least try to have an ear for interesting melodies. Don't even get me started on the percussion and lyrics
>>60893243
>mfw haven't seriously posted on /mu/ in ~6.5 years
>decide to see what it's like now in 2k15
>see this album
>people are still talking about this album
is this what purgatory is like
>>60894052
>boring "experimental" "pop"
Why is it boring? Yes it's a pop album, but the layers of synth melodies and production make it fairly interesting considering there's not a whole lot like it.
>any worthwhile sounds get stretched out 2 minutes too long
Do you have no concept of how texture works? Or structure? The tracks are constantly changing (for instance brother sport) while you're concentrated on the vocal harmonies - there's tons of other shit going on.
>if you're trying to synthesise the old with the new
This is how I know you have no idea what you're talking about
>Don't even get me started on the percussion and lyrics
Lyrics are good for the most part - unless the only song you've heard is my girls, for instance the lyrics on summertime clothes are fucking GOAT
There is also literally nothing wrong with the percussion - it compliments the heavy bass, and vice versa
It's an incredibly layered, melodically infectious pop album with production that hasn't been copied before or since. The sonic aptitude alone on that album warrants respect
>>60894680
Why is it boring?
lyrically its terrible, nothing has emotional impact, carries any weight except maybe summertime clothes, but even that was ruined by the terrible attempts at harmony and distortion. the vocal melodies and harmonies seem practically improvised they're so garbage and horribly structured, and filled with nonsensical production throughout
>fairly interesting considering there's not a whole lot like it
that's coz people don't want to replicate garbage
>tons of other shit going on
that's actually part of the problem, they have a solid melody, and let it drag on so they can add seemingly random studio trick. and they can only add so much when the vocal melodies are garbage
>This is how I know you have no idea what you're talking about
that's literally all the experimenting that was going on. taking pet sounds, adding a bit of 60s psychedelic flair and adapting to modern production techniques.
>Lyrics are good for the most part
They're shit, I'm sorry p4k only lets you listen to Young thug or whatever BNM! garbage
>There is also literally nothing wrong with the percussion
you really have little idea of what good, well mixed drums sound like do you?
>>60895146
>lyrically its terrible
Subjective
>nothing has emotional impact
Lol wut
>terrible attempts at harmony and distortion
Tell me exactly what's wrong with it
>vocal melodies and harmonies seem practically improvised
Fucking how? On what song?
>nonsensical production
Specific example please - because you could say that about literally anything
>people don't want to replicate garbage
So that's why it's a ridiculously popular album?
>vocal melodies are garbage
Again this doesn't make sense
>le simply studio tricks argument
Yeah - they do use a a lot of studio tricks because the album is basically an experiment in seeing how pop songs can be treated in such a way that they become engaging, layered, and pleasant on repeat listens. Also Frightened is the perfect example of this.
>p4k liked it so it must be bad
Serial spork user
>badly mixed drums
Again subjective
>>60893023
underrated post
>>60893834
Fuck off
Get this ironic bullshit out of my library again. Everything about this album is ironic. The cover is ironic. The lyrics are ironic. The concept is ironic. The music is ironic. The vocals are ironic. I think they have no idea what they are doing or what they are singing about (gender issue, divorce problems). Except for the sake of being ironic (look at that ironic double A in Jordaan).
Definitly not recommended to Neutral Milk Hotel fans. This sounds like a shitty version of Beirut, an obnixous version of Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti and even shittier version of Andrew Jackson Jihad, another runner-up for the most ironic band of all times. The album cover insults Sparklehorse.
Fucking hipsters. This album is all that can be wrong about music and I would like to choose this as a prime example for things that should have no place in music. People that gave this positive rating (by means overrate it, by means, giving it a higher rating than absolute zero) are just rating this highly because they are ironic as well. This is the most taste-less bullshit I have ever heard.
I hated hated hated hated hated this album. Not even ironically.
0/10 worst album I have ever heard.
>>60896377
how ironic
>>60892147
>>60892978
>NTR
wtf is that
>>60896459
netorare
>>60893101
really gotta stop and laugh when a /mu/drone says "2deep4u." this is what happens when /mu/ raises you -- you lose your self-awareness.
the most obvious answer
>>60897094
I think that's just autism
>>60897152
Was this really acclaimed by /mu/ though? I remember it was posted a lot the first few weeks when it came out but now it's like a punchline for redditors.
>>60892147
U1ST
>>60897207
Pretty sure that album as well as Ys are safe from redditors
if you actually know what reddit likes, you'd think this goddamn board is godsend,
prove me wrong
>>60893410
Its fucking amazing you cunt
>>60897525
go back to /v/
>>60897313
Is this really /mu/core? Fucking hell
>>60893182
Can we stop with the whole, Death Grips is the greatest/Death Grips is the worst meme.
Death Grips is a thing, let's just leave it with that.
>>60898229
it's declined in the past year or two but it was super /mu/core for a long time
ridiculously overrated
>>60893167
Everyone knows that you are fucked up, and everyone knows that I am fucked up, but does everyone know that you are more fucked up than me?
>>60892147
>>60893243
>>60893834
>>60898527
Bad taste. All other choices ITT are acceptable.
>>60898364
trying to make /mu/ "stop" something is like arguing with an avalanche
I agree with you though
>>60892850
>>60898229
Unfortunately yes. It's pure shit though
>>60896459
short for the japanese equivalent of c.uck, netorare

These aren't /mu/core
Where the fuck is ITAOTS?!
>>60898771
>jordaan mason
>not /mu/core
maybe not so much now, but a year or two ago it was all over this board, and i'm fairly sure that the artist is a /mu/tant
>>60898837
Jordaan does go here but he's a pretty nice guy if that counts for anything
>>60892147
YEEEEEEEEZZZZZUUUUUUUSSSSSSSS
