It feels very accessible to me. It's massively catchy, the weird elements don't take away from the groove.

>>64641785
That's what Death Grips do and are capable of doing.
They make very accessible and catchy inaccessible music.
BP is by far their most experimental record, yet it's their most catchy.
Death Grips take elements of popular music and make it their bitch.
They empower their listeners to by harnessing primal instincts and senses (sex, violence, rhythm, hatred)
The music makes you feel powerful and greater.
Probably why people marginalize their fanbase as skinny white kids, because they need the want that feeling and that empowerment that Death Grips bring them.
This what the musical part of Death Grips is about to me.

Bad People

The most accessible (teetering) are Eh, Trash, BB Poisen and 80808. Not that I'm devaluing them. The songs are softer, easier to groove to.

that being said, the only ones on there that even approach being particularly inaccessible relative to their other stuff are Bad People, Hot Head (which they made more accessible for the final release) and Bottomless Pit, and even then only parts of Hot Head even get close to most of the stuff off NotM

>>
>>64642686
That's still not an excuse for you to just expect us to agree that you're right without explanation, but okay
The majority of BP is basically just TMS 2.0, this time filtered through NLDWs abrasiveness and with some guitars in it occasionally. Structurally it's still poppy as fuck and barely does anything experimental instrumentally other than on a couple tracks, and that's a pretty far cry from NotM where at least half (if not more) of that album was a total earfuck. And no, it being abrasive does not make it experimental, and honestly they've done more abrasive stuff before anyway.
>>
>>64642796
Yeah, I thought it was pretty understood that this was another Money Store except taking ideas from the albums they've done since and making them poppy and enjoyable as hell.
>>
>>64642788
BP is just an expansion of the money store. It's easily their most poppy album and once again you're retarded or either your ears don't work
>>
>>64642851
Not him but TMS is still poppier than BP
BP is their second poppiest album though, followed by ExMil
>>
>>64642879
Maybe I'm just a faggot but I found BP easier to get into than TMS. It feels more rhythmically conventional, very clear verse chorus verse chorus on most songs.

START WITH NOTM OR TMS

>>
>>64642910
I can actually kinda see that, it definitely does follow a strict pop structure on most of the songs whereas TMS often plays around with it more and is a bit more linear, but I'd say that TMS is still 'hookier' and doesn't have the slight experimentation some tracks on BP do.
>>64642957
I'm not expecting you to somehow objectively prove your opinion you fucktard, I'm asking you to explain it instead of just listing tracks and somehow expecting us to infer what you think from them. Considering the supreme intelligence behind your use of le reddit strawman it probably wasn't even worth hearing anyway.

I can't see how it's more accessible than TMS, , which had more conventionally paced beats, recognizeable rock samples and lyrics that were actually discernible to the average listener. I'd also say TMS and even NLDW are more accessible, BP sitting somewhere between that and NOTM

Personal opinion, I don't feel as if BP is conventional because no Death Grips is but it has more elements that work for conventional tastes than their usual albums. The songs have easily recognized structure, massively enjoyable hooks and even the more abrasive sections have something to keep you engaged rather than throwing off western conventions and being a glitchy mess like their other albums often have.
>>
>>64642918
fashion week & government plates are most accessible because it's just cool instrumental shit

exmilitary is second most accessible, it's just aggressive rap

the money store and bottomless pit are third most accessible, lots of catchy hooks & just ride talking trash for an hour

the powers that b and no love deep web are their least accessible because of the particularly strange sounds, the more disturbing themes, and you have NLDW's cover art and TPTB's lenght

Thanks for the rundown pham

it's death grips most rhythmic album. There's a lot of groovy rhythm and steady beats, aside from Hot Head, which has heavy contrast and the rhythm is uneven and very much zach spaz shit. MC ride is very mellow and his flow is more deliberate, he rides the beats better than he ever has, not outpacing the beat with his typical spitfire shit. Overall it signals a departure from their frenetic style (even NOTM was glitch spazzy) and into smoother rhythms.

I wouldn't say it's their most accessible due to what I said in the first half of >>64643031, but now that I think of it I think I might put it at 3rd most accessible behind Exmilitary. As another anon correctly pointed out, it's far closer to a traditional rap album than any of their others.
>>
>>64643089
I don't think they're going to stick with this style for long, it feels more like taking the ideas from everything they've made since TMS and making a new pop-styled banger album before going back to experimentation once more.

Def one of their most accessible albums next to money store in my opinion. If you gave Bottomless Pit to a normie they might find at least one track that they like. Niggas on the moon is probably their least accessible. Normies can't take it.
>>
>>64643158
It's just my opinion but now that BP is out I would tell a new listener to start with either The Money Store or Bottomless Pit although I agree Exmilitary is very accessible

You can't explain something like music, because it's subjective.

>>64643033
I didn't say I was objectively right. You're just saying that to make seem worse than what I am. My opinion is entirely subjective and so is yours. I just kindly agree that it's not an accessible album.

My thoughts exactly.
>>
>>64643089
best analysis itt besides departure from frenetic style. they're still plenty frenetic its just not in the foreground, not the focal point of the album. but for the most part its super restrained and they let the energy come out in explosive bursts, i see the most similarities to TMS in terms of comparisons to their discog but even then not too heavy on that.
>>
Feels like a distilled NoTM.
>>
>>64643453
I can hear a lot of all of their post-Money Store albums being put into a consistent, pop context. There's heavy guitars ala JD, but they're almost always edited to be plainly not a live recording and in some cases it's hard to tell if there's guitars or just odd synths. The glitchiness and odd patterns that identify their most experimental moments are there, but they're built into the pop formula rather than intentionally breaking the musical formula apart. It's a very cool album to listen to, you hear so much of what they've been working on in this context that I personally didn't expect to hear it in.
I could honestly see BP being the beginning of Death Grips getting noticed in the mainstream, though I don't think they're going to stick with this sound.
>>
They just injected NOTM with synths. So i'd say it's about as accessible as that album
>>
I was thinking about this other day. I think if it's more accessible it's because Ride doesn't scream as much (Eh, Trash). The beats are better than most of their albums too imo. Reminds me of No Love in a lot ways aside from a few tracks.

Absolutely it is. The melodies, structures and instrumentation are very poppy compared to past albums. Also Ride is less crazy and more mellow than ever.

THE was also pretty Poppy but had a few weirder songs as well. This is pretty much all poppy except maybe Hot Head

it's experimental in terms of what other people are doing in the music industry right now.

Don't expect Death Grips to be anything other than a hip-hop group that uses unconventional beats, violent/existential lyrics and an aggressive vocal delivered by MC Ride.

If Death Grips were to change completely from one album to another, they'd be doing some ska punk with country music right now lol
