So /mu/, I hope I'm not the only one that thinks this album is shit.
The vocals are atrocious and hard to listen to, with Win Butler ignoring his technical inabilities and belting out high notes leading to his annoying wobbling.
The mixing is absolute shit, with vocals drowned out under the mix, which is fine if it's drowned out by interesting textures that still has clarity, such as some shoegaze bands out there. Instead, vocals are drowned out by some muddy-ass textures that painfully sound like a band that self-produced their album for the first time.
This is frustrating, because I absolutely love the concepts they're going for. The songwriting is excellent, the lyrics are great. It's the shit vocals, shit mix, and overzealous arrangements that are clearly out of the band's ability to mix.
Opinions, /mu/? I may be the only one who thinks this, so feel free to call OP a faggot.
The mixing is great, it's not supposed to sound like pop music, it's supposed to sound like "traditionals" and old vinyl recordings.
Idk, I think the arrangments are quite good.
Is it one of the greatest of all time? Fuck no, but it isn't 'shit'
Solid 7/10 imo

"Shit" is not an opinion. Try to express something other than buzzwords and you might get other than "fag" and "this". Also, what an attention whore. What are you, a woman?

yeah, he's sweet
not too sure about that album, but like in general he's sweet
Honestly, apart from the title track and the instrumentals, this album is kind of boring, other ANCO albums are also kind of too poppy imo
suck my dick pleb

What makes it boring?
What kind of things in music excite/interest you?

advantages of a qt chart:
>requires less albums to showcase taste for recs
>threads are more friendly and less robotic
>the customization process is fun!

gibbe album on bottom left pls
Good playlist to put on when my friends and I play some good ol melee? Preferably some of the normie shit mang0 plays on stream.
listen to your mom sucking cock for chump change
just play on no other stage besides Fountain of Dreams that's all the music you'll ever need
Tycho, MF DOOM, gorillaz, Aesop rock, shit like that should do you pretty good for a melee playlist
What are some of the best headphones? My cheapo JVC DJ phones are blowing out. I'm looking for a set with a decent range and fuller sounding bass for mainly electronic/rock stuff. $150 dollar budget here, was thinking Sennheisers.
ATH-M50s if you don't mind your ears hurting like a bitch after a few hours of use.
>>65498056
Seconded. Stupid faggots will tell you that they're overrated, but they're super solid headphones for the price. They do hurt your ears after extended sessions though.
>>65498034
Consider the Sennheiser HD558's. Very comfortable and well-within your price range.
I personally use Beyerdynamic 990's.

Let's talk about this suave motherfucker. What's your favorite Dylan album? Favorite song? Did you listen to his "not even trying"-phase Sinatra yet?
god
>>65497651
Currently playing Highway 51 Revisited. My third playthrough and it's growing on me more and more with each listen. Blonde On Blonde is lovely stuff too.
>>65497651
>"not even trying"
I haven't heard the new one, but his last one features some of his best vocals in years. Great song selection and good performances. I'd hardly call that not trying.
classic
Not sure how I feel about pic related. It was a staple of my teen years and the first thing that comes to mind after Sex Pistols when I hear "punk", but re-listening to it doesn't give me the same vibe anymore. Everything Sux resonates with me more, what the fuck is wrong with me?

Whelp I done fucked up

Often high, is a lot of fun at parties.
>>65497284
Pretty good. What's your favorite off of Love You? Still trying to get into that one.
>>65497399
Tie between Mona and Good Time.
The love ballads on Love You ring a lot more closer to me than anything on Pet Sounds...they remind me a lot of Daniel Johnston. Who is also on my list.
