Tony looks like that one constantly sick character in Peep Show

Nothin senpai everythings in its right place
>>66079183
Fucking hell
Nothing went wrong. It's like someone combined Donuts, Pet Sounds, Illinois, and RAM together.
You can't get away with sampling to the extent you could in the pre-Daft Punk - Discovery days, when it mostly went under the radar
I probably would have moved Kaleidoscope Lovers to a different part of the album, it's too slow to be at the end like that.
Other than that, no real problems.
Frankie Sinatra is actually a good track
People were expecting too much for a follow-up of SILY. Wildflower is good, but it just isn't possible for them to make something as good as their first album again.
>>66079550
My expectations were sky-fucking-high and I feel they've been met.
This is AOTY definitely. The voice recording hook in Because I'm Me are from a child talking out of his sleep, describing his nightmares. Not even joking.

>>66079608
How does that make the song sound better in any way?

The album is AOTY, unrelated or not.

thx m8

If it sounds anything like that shitty Frankie Sinatra single there is no way this is AOTY.
>>66079183
holy shit
>>66079912
You haven't even fucking listened to it?
Garbage of the year
>>66079912
You stupid cunt, go listen to it
The fuck is wrong with you?
Nothing its my new album of the year.

>In a thread about wildfire
>Hasn't even listened to it
take a knife and stab your neck with it faggot.
Meh
I've listened to it once so far. Not AOTY, not a FOTY (flop). It's a good album, that's all. Duo to the very long period when it was being made, people got too high expectations of it; expectations which this album doesn't deliver. Same shit happened to GnR's Chinese Democracy. Really makes you respect Daft Punk for delivering an album that DID actually meet the high expectations, RAM.

this t b h familia
>>66080049
btw, come to think of it, this album is perfect for "hey anon, here's the aux cord, play some music from your phone/player" situations

>Really makes you respect Daft Punk for delivering an album that DID actually meet the high expectations, RAM.
>>66080094
you are free to have your own opinion and dislike RAM, but you cannot deny it's been critically acclaimed in general and is most commonly referred to as anything but a disappointment or a flop
>>66080049
does it get any more casual than this fucking post?
>>66079912
It sounds nothing at all like Frankie Sinatra
Seriously listen to it.
>>66079608
How did they make it sound like the kid was singing? I'm assuming Melodyne or something?
Wrong or right, AOTY or not, let's hope that the Avalanches start releasing more music. This might be the start of something great.
>>66079027
>i hate fun
go listen to slint or giles corey
>>66080272
I'm not agreeing with that other anon (and I love this album), but the "I hate fun" argument is idiotic.
>>66079027
>it's shallow

Not a single line regarding the 5000 year slavery of blacks, college campus rape orgies or Donald Trump

you meme-obsessed fuck
frankie sinatra is mostly ok, the danny brown feature is pretty bad though

Give it about a week

>tfw listening to subways
they're back
>>66080395
Wildflower sounds exponentially better with each listen though
Definitely shouldn't be listened to like SILY, it's more house/indie orientated but this weird inbetween. There are some filler moments but I'm only listen to it once. I wish going home turned into a proper song and it didn't feel like it was trying hard to be an avalanches comeback, it's pretty cool overall though. Wish I had saved it all for a first listen instead of listening to the singles beforehand.
