no, like most of the fans it was once my third stepdad left and my mum took away my xbl I needed a way to vent so I got into DEATH GRIPS. it gos gilooooteen YAH

I wouldn't be caught dead listening to that shit.

>>63726116
i listened to The Powers That B first. I didn't know much about them desu, didn't know they were a meme. At the time I hadn't really heard anything like Up My Sleeves. I was surprised by their sound but I kept listening cuz I was doing something else on the computer. The music kind of faded in the background after 2-3 tracks and I had no intention of playing them again. Then i heard Inanimate Sensation. That song sounded fucking amazing. And yeah, that was it. I like most of their shit now, TMS being my least favorite

yeah the fifth step is hate it again and the sixth step is occasionally come back to it and feel guilt because i know i share a tinge of a common interest with scum like you.

also optionally if you skip the "because of /mu/" step you probably will have a much more enjoyable experience.

the /mu/ hates DG meme is so funny but also really retarded. you literally only hate them because reddit likes them. otherwise most of you would be indifferent, and just rarely hateful
>>
>>63726249
i wouldn't know that because i don't go to reddit. the reason i "hate" them is because of what
>>63726224
poster said.

i still listen to them every now and then like you would have noticed i said if you weren't retarded. but in fact the reason i feel guilt when i do has nothing to do with reddit liking them but actually /mu/ liking them.

>>63726116
Yeah but then they got too popular so you're supposed to hate them now. Calling them a meme is huge points here man.


I fucking love them though.

well im not sure why you're directing that at me. i mean i agree but my point is reddit isn't a bunch of death grip fans. the only people on reddit who like deathgrips is the subreddit dedicated to deathgrips, r/deathgrips. that subreddit has a lot of crossover anyway so what that guy said is even dumber

Never heard of those, I knew Death Grips even before I discovered /mu/.
Because guess what? DG is not a secret band only /mu/ knows about, literally go on any music discussion Forum that covers underground music and DG will be mentioned.

>their music has not developed in the five or so years
This is just plain ignorance, if you've ever heard the Power that b you'd know that it sounds completely different from their previous record

>they're a shit band, who will soon be forgotten.
Wheter they're shit or not is a matter of preference. It's certainly not meant for everybody but that's also not what they're aiming for.

Realistically, they will be rememberded since there isn't quite anything like them in terms of sound.
>>
>>63726390
You say it like that's a bad thing.
Why the fuck would you care? Can't you hipsters be happy for a band that you like gain populairty?
Do you always have to be a special snowflake?

not him and il get made fun of for making this post, but im just being real here. you probably are lying to yourself if you want to pretend like you don't care when someone starts spouting "NOIDED XD". if you like something, people associate you with other people they know that like that same thing. and if the people they know that like it are stupid meme spouting edgelords than no shit its a bad thing,

who exactly is going to associate me with those? DG aren't very popular 'outside' and i don't parade liking them. If it's my friends, well they know me well enough not to have to associate me with random online people

Stop caring so much man, I'm not even that big of a fan but they're music is really good.
Just listen to what you enjoy.

>>63726116
>Is this the process all of you went through?
yeah. you eventually gain perspective and understanding of the approach and messages made by the band. You sort of get attuned to the way the band innovates rather than how it just sounds like madness. It's been a labor of love.
>>
>>63726116
At first I didn't really get them but I did understand the appeal so I relistened to them every once in a while and it grew on me. Some tracks I found accesible from the beggining (Beware, I've seen footage, Get got, The Fever, Lord of the Game)

I still dont really like most of GP or the instrumentals tho. They're allright but nowhere near as good as the rest of the albums.

>>63726116
Nah. I was drawn to it for how dark and real it felt. I didn't "like" it at the time, but I couldn't look away. Even a track like "Get Got" was almost too much.

Birds was also one of the very few tracks I was listening to, because the band had recently dropped it as a single when I got into them. It was like sickening to listen to a little bit, that heavily synthesized voice "IGOTTOOMRROWCOMING" the song actually made me feel ill but at the same time I couldn't stop coming back to it, every day for a couple of weeks.

So it was a slow process for me, I was really drawn to the band and kept coming back until I started liking more and more.

No I listened to money store fir the first time whilst lying in bed and had an epiphany

If it hadn't been for that sample, it probably wouldn't've gripped me the same way. Guess I got lucky.

fast-forward to now and they're my favorite artist of this decade but man was I put off the first time I heard them. NLDW is a really bad album to start with though, although it is my favorite now.
