>>64332695
>Is this particularly different from his other stuff?
Yes. I think is his best yet, has a pretty good live production
>>64332962
Is it representative enough to just go directly backwards in his catalogue to compare them?

>>64333139
serious AOTY contenders
1. David Bowie - Blackstar
2. The Drones - Feelin Kinda Free
3. Xiu Xiu - Plays the Music of Twin Peaks
4. Anna Meredith - Varmints

Was recommended that Gate album and it's good but it didn't click with me really as much as it must have with some other people. I'll have to relisten to it.
>>64333267
>Cobalt - Slow Forever
really disappointed it didnt come with the lyrics. Eight pages of bullshit roarschach art instead.
:)
>>64333454
coathangers >>>>>>
>>64333027
>4. Black Mountain - IV 9
starting now
kinda sucks so far
when does it get good?
>>64333471
their s/t is their only good release
>>64333590
oh I dont know, this new one's pretty fucking awesome but admittedly its all I've heard
also admittedly I'm not really familiar with that hinds album besides browsing it when it came out and quickly turning my nose up to it
>>64331267
>dream theater - astonishing
literally why
>>64333637
for the most part hinds are just the indie blog darlings/ flavor of the month band and nothing about what they do is original, but nevertheless i enjoyed their debut. comfy lofi garage rock, nice to play on a sunny day when ur driving
>>64333707
I'm listening now and for starters I suppose its not an especially fair comparison anyways. This is way dreamier than the coathangers. Kinda cool actually.
>>64333721
I fucking love 4.5
were you a big fan of hand? aside from ancestral I actually kinda hated it so I suppose I'm not really objective in comparing them. But for me that is one of the only examples I can think of where the b-sides collection was better than the album.
topsters fucked up my updated chart so heres this one
>>64333788
yeah I wasnt really a fan of Hand either. I really liked Raven but aside from that I've had trouble getting into Steven's solo stuff, which is a shame because I love PT and Bass Communion.
>>64333680
pretty damn solid for two fucking hours
dynamic ranging from bungle style craziness
offhand those are the two big ones
anything else i should listen too?
>>64333924
anything in particular I should pay attention to for open mike eagle? The music was very decent but the rapping was literally some of the worst I've ever heard so I quit after about three songs maybe more.
>>64333924
>anything else i should listen too?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-mlg-fFJZGA
>>64334059
Not him but I just wanna say this song is groovy as fuck
>>64334079
considering crossover appeal I think its true aotysf which I had it at for along time until dream theater which has like zero crossover appeal
>>64331267
>>64331036
>>64333027
>>64333113
>>64333267
what about human performance kept you interested? halfway through the first listen I felt it wasn't worth the time
>>64334178
>I felt it wasn't worth the time
I'm not sure it is. I liked sleep cycle way more even though I said I really liked both a lot.
>>64331036
Moonsorrow
deftones - gore
sleep cycle is mediocre as fuck if this is in ur aoty list then you have shit taste
>>64334639
whats your list
>>64334606
getting its hooks in me
>>64334649
its more restrained than their previous albums, but hearing them like this rustles my jimmies like nothing else this year
This was fucking amazing desu.
>>64331036
Human Performance
Sleep Cycle
Untitled Unmastered
Are you Serious?
Feelin Kinda Free
Void Beats
>>64334876
really impressed so far and looking forward to taking advantage of their generous name your price
bump for new music
>>64331611
has Testarossa come out then?
>>64334178
it's just fun and varied enough to keep me interested about 15 listens through - theres no objective answer
>>64331673
hell yeah - if you've never done ceres & calypso in the deep time, do that too
>>64331267
I stopped reading after I saw Dream Theaters meme album
let's bump this thing with the hip hop AOTY
>>64333027
Now this is inflation
2016 sucks ass so far
>>64341495
no it super doesn't, and you sound very uneducated
>>64341495
Listen to these friend.
>>64331036
Open Mike Eagle - Hella Personal Film Festival
Deakin - Sleep Cycle
need to listen to Sound of Ceres and Damien Jurado.
>>64331611
did the Yoni and Geti album leak? Really need to listen to Aesop's new one too.
>>64333956
well if you just hate his lyrical style, you probably won't get used to it. Listen to Dark Comedy Late Show, Very Much Money, Doug Stamper, Trickeration, or History of Modern Dance for something that's more typical to his discography
desu
