I don't really care for any of their other stuff either, so this was pretty surprising.
>>64714855
Mine is probably going to be they new RHCP or Swans album when they come out. I haven't really liked much that has come out this year yet
not even memeing

as a big parquet courts fan, it was nice to see them re-engage their audience with the catchiness they captured early on in their career (first and foremost Light Up Gold) while holding on to some of the noisier elements they developed on their side project (most relevantly Content Nausea, released as "Parkay Quarts).
Human Performance does however represent some of their most forward pop endeavors (for instance One Man No City) while still working within the framework of repetition and straight jangled post-punk most prominently featured in Sunbathing Animal. Human Performance basically amounts to a tour of Parquet Court's best elements while neglecting those that a larger audience might find grating (the reaction given to their more "out there" EP Monastic Living).
I'm not sure I'm ready to call it AOTY, but I did really enjoy it as well.
Was it their "slacker" persona that previously turned you off the band?

>>64714972
>outsider improvisational post rock
Where have I read this genre description from?
>>64714954
I guess you could say that. It seemed forced.
I do actually like Monastic Living, but I heard that after Human Performance.
>>64715020
>OMINOUS DRUMS AND MICROTONAL HORNS
WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS ALBUM
>>64715026
Nice chinglish
>>64714973
but RHCP are gud and I don't even know what 'DG' means. I don't really care for radiohead so I probably wont listen to it
>>64715042
yeah, I can see why you'd say that, their lyrics sometimes come off as a bit over the top in a "college trustfund" kind of way.
if you feel like venturing into the band any further (assuming you didn't dig light up gold or sunbathing animal) you could check out Content Nausea, it's pretty much exactly between Human Performance and Monastic Living.
>>64715051
Nice post
dream theater
two fucking hours of balls to the wall
>>64715087
but that sucked shit through a crazy straw
>>64715087
The only balls in that thing are the balls John Petrucci sucks and the only wall in there is how it's even more shitty than The Wall
>>64715099
example?
first song has bungle style craziness
>>64715113
do you post in every thread or something
>>64715113
>it's even more shitty than The Wall
>being this contrarian
wew lad
>>64715124
I found it to be very cheezy honestly
>>64715126
p much
>>64715131
>waaahhh everyone who doesn't like what i like is contrarian
Go suck horse cock. Oh wait you can't, the horse is too busy jerking himself off. You'll have to wait eighty minutes and then some
But AMSP and BP may overtake in the near future.
>>64715145
ur about to get memed on but it's actually a great album.
>>64715145
i liked pablo a lot the first few times but kind of got tired of it and the version 1.2 shit put me off
>>64715169
This is that new funeral doom album that came out early this year right? How good is it?
>>64715133
oh believe me so do i
and you aint seen nuthin if you havent seen the liner notes to this beast holy fuck
remember cheese is a delicacy. It can pungent and often times thats the best.
Sleep Cycle
>>64715145
>your current aoty
>>64715179
well he just said its aoty
?
>>64715179
9/10, I haven't dived into funeral doom much though.
>>64715201
He could easily think that every other album this year is dogshit garbage and this is the only thing above a 4/10.
>>64715202
Alright, I should check it out. Seems to be getting lots of praise from everyone on here
>>64715186
But I don't like cheese
>>64715203
dude xylophones lmao
>>64715215
Alright man you check it out. Peace out dude.
>>64714972
>you can make it into blooooooocks
>>64715215
I actually hated it but dream theater is my aoty so you'll probably love it
as I recall it was too "choir"
>>64715237
holy fuck pls stop posting
this forced meme will never catch on
>>64715219
well I dont exactly like it either but its all about objectivity
>>64715253
dream theater blows the absolute fuck out of lycus dont make me fucking laugh holy shit
>>64715254
You mean subjectivity
>>64715262
end this meme
>>64715266
maybe the choice of criteria
if someone wants to simply rail against major scales then I suppose thats their choice but I think its throwing the baby out with the bath water
>>64715274
end your own meme and stop posting buddy
>>64715274
do not make me laugh
chasms has literally no chance against the juggernaut astonishing
>>64715280
What the hell are you going on about? I was correcting you because you mixed up objective and subjective
Life Grips - Finite Mountain
>>64715131
"The Wall fucking sucks" is a popular opinion though. I'm a devoted member.
>>64715314
I'm saying criteria is subjective
but the assessment of that criteria is objective
>>64715351
>chasms > astonishing
oh I look forward to this trouncing
>>64715354
Yeah well
>>64715372
Well done, good post
>>64715372
admittedly I'm kinda pulling that outta my ass but still
mostly why I stick strictly to rankings and comparisons then avoid ratings like the plague
>>64714855
Yes
>>64714867
Maybe no.1
>>64714882
Yes
>>64715203
Yes

You all need to listen to more music if you think Radiopleb's album is in any way a "purfect" album

I also liked A Sailor's Guide to Earth
Have not listened to the Weezer album or the Radiohead one yet, though.
>>64717086
I really wanted to like this, but I just don't. It just doesn't hold up to some of his other stuff.
>>64715145
It has some good tracks, but it's one hell of a mess.
hecker or jebenesm or lines. everything else is small time
>>64717190
Impossible Kid is like a 6/10.
The flows are good but the narrative of the whole album isn't. Where Labor Days had a lot of messages and hidden symbolism, Impossible Kid is just Aesop cryptically talking about his own life, to the point where I had to look up the lyrics to find out what the fuck he was talking about to find it was some thing that happened during his childhood or when some friend of his died in a car accident. I just don't care enough.
>>64714958
link me up pls
>>64717293
its on slsk
definitely this
It isn't the best album I've heard, but TFOT making music again pretty much makes it my AOTYAY
>>64718530
Oh fuck, this was so sick
>>64718639
my face when the end of the album loops seamlessly into the start again
