ys > mem > divers = hoom

but that's wrong

for (you)
As if. You're not paying for shit, you cheapskate.
That font is pretty ugly. Should've used Helvetica.
>>63375445
Wrong
>>63375445
ys = mem = divers = hoom
I will say that I think HOOM is her weakest album, simply because she didn't pare it down. If she took out only like 1/3 of the songs it would be so much stronger. Maybe I just have a short attention span though
>>63375860
You're wrong.
Also
>critical about having MORE songs
We live in an age where you can pare it down yourself if you so desire.
Anyone else think this album is trying way too hard to be artsy? I like it but I internally cringe at some songs while listening to them because it just feels like they're trying to make their PhD in music theory relevant.
ys ≥ hoom > divers > mem
>>63375445
HOOM > Ys > Divers > MEM
>>63375930
Not compared to any other Joanna Newsom album, least of all Ys.
And no, I don't think she's "trying way too hard" at all. That's a quality that can be inferred only by projecting.

Sprout and the Bean
En Gallop
Clam Crab Cockle Cowrie
as well
Though I prefer the EP versions of some of 'em!
>>63377381
now that i think of it, ive never heard a bad joanna song
>>63377501
The only Joanna song I've ever heard that I don't like very much is Time, As a Symptom.
Ys = HOOM > MEM > Divers
Ys>Divers>hoom>>>mem
How do people even rank mem so high. Compared to everything she's done after both lyrically and instrumentally it just pales.
It's not bad but at this point it's just Joanna-lite.
Ys==Hoom>Divers>>Mem
>>63377872
her voice in the first two EPs and MEM is so unique and captivating. I agree the songwriting and compositions aren't as a good as her later work but god, that early voice is some otherworldly shit
>>63377872
Disagree. It's "simpler" and more callow but that doesn't mean it pales. Simplicity is the mark of all great pop music. It's rough around the edges and I like that.
>>63374210
sure, OP.
>tfw never expected Ys to be my favorite but when I actually thought about it the first three songs are my three favorite Joanna songs

This is a great post
>>63378042
>Simplicity is the mark of all great pop music
what?
You disagree because it's simpler and shows her inexperience and is not nearly as polished as the work she's done since.
right

>You disagree because it's simpler and shows her inexperience and is not nearly as polished as the work she's done since.
Yes?
Why is this objectionable to you?
>>63377621
>doesn't like the best song on Divers and arguably one of her most emotionally affecting songs
do you have a heart of ice, anon?

>le "i read a cracked article about fonts once" meme
>>63376760
'En Gallop' or Emily.
>>63377501
I don't like The Fray and Three Little Babes so much, but I think that's it.
>>63376760
Monkey and Bear
>>63375930
One of the worst posts I've ever read, congratulations
>>63376760
Only Skin for lyrics
Kingfisher for instruments
Literally good but too long the album
