I quite enjoyed it actually. There is a lot of stuff they've done before but overall it's a pretty enjoyable listen.
My favorite track was Sick Love
Why do you think there has never been a rock album on par with electronic music?
As it has become an obsolete genre and its time passed, do you think it was maybe down to it being too centered on dancing, entertainment and simplistically emotional based with feels and anti-establishment ethos in most?
>he's never listened to Henry Cow
I agree with you, Rock is chained by rhythm and commecial succes. Very rarely you see rock bands break free from these.
2016 feels like its been nothing but really great bands releasing passable albums by their standards.
Only few standouts to me have been The Body/Full of Hells collab album and Steve Gunns new album.
Use this thread to suggest some overlooked/not as hyped up albums from 2016 that are still very good.
Still looking for stuff, but I'll listen to your recommendations. Bump.
this was pretty good
most of the stuff on my chart is overlooked, give some a try
Ask someone who's in a band that recently opened for Deafheaven and caused George to leave the green room by going on a large scale drunken rant about Brexit anything
Can you repeat your drunken rant?
What are your and georges postions on it? Who was for/against and is deafheaven even an english band?
What's the band you're in?
Favorite album? Song? Don't like them? Why?

It's good. More techno and less hip hop.
Reminder that you are discussing music tastes on board where absolute most popular thread is Kpop.
>pic very related
reminder that you are taking 5 minutes out of your day to remind people on 4chan that 4chan is shit

Hello!

seems interesting
Here's the thing about Mike. The man has some serious pipes. He has a six octave range and excels in any octave. He writes brilliant songs. And his stage presence is only matched by Adolf Hitler.
Seriously, Watch Mr. Bungle play Pink Cigarette at Bizarre Festival and then watch a video of the Nuremburg rallies. We better thank our lucky stars Mike didn't go into politics or he would have taken over the world.
But Mr. Bungle as a whole had a brilliant dynamic. It wasn't just the Mike Patton backup band. They all made huge creative contributions to what made Bungle what it is. Yes Mike wrote Girls of Porn, Sweet Charity and The Air conditioned Nightmare.
But Trevor Dunn wrote Retrovertigo, The holy Filament and Phlegmatics. Trey Spruance wrote Desert Search for Techno Allah, None of them know they were robots, Golem II the bionic vapour boy.
Other bands like Nirvana for instance were not like that. Nirvana was basically just the Kurt Cobain backup band. Mr. Bungle was the perfect storm of legendary talent, and Mike was the face of it all, the delicious cherry on top of an already delicious sundae.
He was the ambassador that allowed the amazing talent of the combo that was Mr. Bungle to be brought into our lives. He was the prism that focused the lazer beams from the brains of Trevor, Trey, Heifietz and Mckinnon and amplified them until they were powerful enough to blow our minds out through our ear holes.
Yes, he is the most incredible front man who has ever lived, hands down.

yeah, it does
Ive seen numerous times on mu that this is a concept album. Apart from a few songs (across the sea, pink triangle, butterfly), I dont really see how this is considered a concept album. Could someone explain it track for track?
>>66033591
it's not a fucking concept album. just because some autists want to connect imaginary dots does not mean there's a picture
It doesn't have a plot, but the themes of the lyrics are so focused on describing one person's feelings and thoughts that it's like a concept.
>>66033649
I agree with this.
I would call it a concept album, just not one with a plot, but a theme

David Bowie was the Niel deGrasse Tyson of music. Normies love them. Normies user their interest in them as proof that they are music- or science-savvy. Normies champion their work as artistically and scientifically important, despite the fact that it is derivative and not very interesting.
Each of these charlatans profited from more intelligent and more daring musical and scientific spirits. They were the flamboyant and self-indulgent narcissists who faggily danced down the trails blazed for them.
Fuck Bowie.
No that would be Kanye you described
I bet you haven't listened to more than 3 of his albums.

>Make a hit song romanticizing poverty lifestyles in Brooklyn, people love it
>Make a conscious freestyle that highlights why young boys are committing crimes and young girls are getting surgeries to enhance their bodies, people hate it

Hey guys no offense but if you have to train yourself to like an album it probably isn't a very good album
Many cant just go listen to late era Coltrane and enjoy it without understanding its context in jazz's progression
Some albums require knowledge before to understand
what do you mean "train yourself"?
I don't know man, moonbase alpha is pretty fucking hard to get into
