How is this album not considered more of a modern masterpiece? It takes the most off putting and outsider ideas of drug abuse, murder, attempted suicide, and schizophrenia and makes them catchy. It is kinda a feat when you talk about. Every song has a hook that you remember. Every song. The album just is kinda in a league of its own when put up to other Death Grips records.
The production is the best out of any of Death Grips album period. So /mu/ what is your classic?

The Powers That B is a lot more artful, man.

>Every song has a hook that you remember.
i never understood why people say this about TMS
like people tell me "OMG HACKER IS CATCHY AS FUCK IT'LL GET STUCK IN YOUR HEAD"
i listened to that song a good dozen times and i couldn't even begin to tell you what any of it sounds like
>>62388470
>Every song has a hook that you remember.
>over 1,000 DG plays
>can only remember the hook for I've Got Footage off the top of my head
>>62388480
>>62388513
I don't watch fantano
>>62388530
The Powers That B just isn't as consistent as this record. Centuries of a Damn and Beyond Alive are just not good songs.
>>62388603
>I've Got Footage
someone please kill me
>>62388470
>best

Wow opinion fucking dropped.
>>62388603
The song is called "I've Seen Footage" m8. I also don't believe you.

>>62388610
Beyond Alive is the most important transition for the structure of the album besides the Big Dipper -> Break Mirrors one.
It's the collapse of energy, and the start of the spiral to On GP. The single most important line in the album is in Beyond Alive.
TMS is just a collection of great singles.

It shouldn't even be a fucking question
>>62388737
>Exmilitary
>26 plays
>Government Plates

This is why Death Grips fans are garbage tier
I am always kind of amazed how everybody shit talks this album. I too prefer TPTB but the money store is really really good
Don't worry anon it'll be looked back upon as TVU&N-lite for this decade
>>62388737
whoa
>>62388470
Anybody knows where can i get the full album but only the instrumentals?
>>62388743
The Powers That B is the main transition track on the album.

Punk Weight is my second favorite track anon.
>>62388782
Thanks for believing in it.
>>62388552
That is the point. You have to give each single song so many listens to distinguish what is being samples, said, and actually what it sounds like. It is a collage of debauchery.
>>62388897
I feel you anon. My grandmother had it and my grandfather was pretty deep into his disease when we put in the grave. At the funeral when they were lowering him down into his grave my grandmother yelled "IT'S SUCH A LONG WAY DOWN". kinda feel bad for her.
>>62388909
thanks, downloading (:
>>62388804
why? because of the outro?
I'm sticking the Beyond Alive, because the noticeable shift in lyrical content and the full embrace of the guitars
>>62388470
does anybody have the ridiculous version of this album dubbed over by what i assume to be a 16 year old dude singing all the songs really really badly?

mmmmmno
it's fantastic but not a perfect 10. Blackjack and Lost Boys are a little too bare bones, The Cage is the weakest song on their tho personally.
Fuck That is really underrated though seriously
it's not even their best album honestly. that'd be NOTM
>>62388470
why are so many people huge fans of the fever? love the album and DG overall, but i dont understand clinging to that particular song

literally rym-tier
>>62392134
no it's not. it's in every DGfanboy's top 10.
Gov Plates is underrated DG
>>62392206
Facemelter is their most overlooked song. Prove me wrong.
2nd is Blood Creepin
>>62388610
what the fuck
centuries of damn -> beyond alive -> on gp is the best thing they've ever done

And it's also one of their best songs faggot.

daily reminder that this is dg's best song
The Powers That B will be remembered as their true artistic masterpiece... unless Bottomless Pit completely rips it apart.
>>62390415
hey this is pretty good, not cringe at all!

its certainly more artful but i wouldnt say its a better album overall.

"Beware" is the only truly god-tier Death Grips song.
>>62393147
Beware has been outdone on every level by Up My Sleeves
>>62393178
how
niggas on the moon is their best album
on GP is their best track
money store is very good, but it certainly isn't their best
>>62393223
Better opener
Better use of occult themes
Better performance by Mc Ride
More Variation
and more 'experimental' if you want to count it
given further thought I will admit it is not as catchy
What is the first half of jenny death so bad
>>62390350
that synth
The Money Store is really lame, which is a shame because Get Got and The Fever are fucking great. But Double Helix, I've Seen Footage, Lost Boys, Hustle Jones, goddamn what a bunch of crap.
NLDW is miles above TMS anon.
>>62393496
you are the archetype of the normie that pretends to like DG but only likes their most accessible catchy songs. disgusting.
>>62393496
How do you not like Lost Boys?
>>62392275
>not poser killer
>>62393496
>Hustle Jones
>>62393575
it's okay i guess
>>62393586
>HUSTLE JONES COMING OUT OF MOUTH
>>62393542
What? TMS is their most accessible work. Exmilitary is my favorite of theirs simply because of how hip-hop centric it is compared to the rest of their stuff. I seriously can't stand most of TMS though. It took out the most visceral part of Exmilitary, Ride's vocals, and mixes them in the center instead of above the instrumentals. That's why I feel NLDW is better than it.
>>62393555
Incredibly annoying chorus.
>>62393586
Bones my bad.
>>62388737
Only 1000?
It's not accessible at all. Not even a little bit.
>>62394258
this honestly. death grips rank among some of the least accessible music i have ever heard

develop taste in general please, I'm not a huge DG fan in general but I understand why people like every album except FW which is mediocre garbgage
>>62393343
The virtue of Beware and the rest of Death Grips' first album was that it remained at least somewhat faithful to a traditional hiphop sound, while having wildly different themes.
It was listenable for normies, instead of just being noise music like their later releases.
>>62394453
Billy Not Really fits that pretty well if you get over how the sound was made
I liked No Love Deep Web's more minimal hooks more than the more bloated tms hooks.
>>62394402
>i only listen to the popular death grips albums /mu/ shoves down my throat.
I appreciate what Andy and Zach did with fashion week, so maybe you should develop a better taste.
>>62394402
FW is so bad
>>62394541
what don't you like about fashion week?
>>62388494
for you
>>62388494
Why do you keep doing this?
>>62394453
Beware sounds more ethereal, while up my sleeves sounds more nautical and schizophrenic.
TMS is a modern masterpiece but you need to give the music community at least 10 years to realize that. the idea that anything is an immediate masterpiece is objectively wrong.
Also TPTB is the best dg album. That being said, i think it is far more likely for TMS to be considered the group's true masterpiece. TMS is starsailor, TPTB is lorca
>>62394541
FW is the perfect videogame background music.
>>62394258
Yes, it is. Get Got as an opening track is very accessible. It is far, FAR more accessible than Exmilitary. But now we're playing he said, she said. More than anything, TMS takes out the visceral power of Ride's vocals.
>>62388470
>How is this album not considered more of a modern masterpiece?
it is.
the memes are the praise.
>>62388603
>i've got footage

>>62388470
Typical /mu/ bullshit. Wax poetic about the themes of an album but never address the music.
>>62394453
>while having wildly different themes.
What the fuck? Everything Exmilitary talks about are fucking staples of hip-hop, ALL of it. I shouldn't have to list what makes Exmilitary unique. People like how empowering the opener is and how unique the other shit is.

You gotta rationalize each era's equivalent
>>62394258
>>62394278
please tell me this is ironic. death grips are basically pop
>>62394278
it took me like two years of saying 'it's kinda unlistenable bullshit' to finally come to the point where it it hit me like a fucking ISIS bombing.
>>62388494
stop forcing this meme

and I've got these dubs
>>62393343
>better use of occult themes
this nigga read the wiki page on 'occult' and now knows everything there is to know about the occult lmao. please grace us with your expert information on what themes he's showing in up my sleeves compared to beware.
you dumb fuckin faggot sitting on the DG Reddit sub being spoonfed like the little babby you are. fuck off and do your own research before you spout bullshit some other dickhead compiled for the pleasure of receiving praise from other dickheads and faggots like yourself.
you don't know shit, so stop acting like you do.
>>62396758
To be honest the whole thread is like this, which leads me to believe most DG fans are like this.
>>62396966
Most of them are, and wherever you go it doesn't change. We'll have to wait at least 5 years before there can even be a discussion about them that isn't spewing with shitty memes.
>>62392563
