Wow SnoopDogg is looking younger. Eminem looks great as well.

Death Grips aren't a meme, though a lot of memes have been made surrounding them. "They sound like shit" is a pretty normal first response to their music, you might love them one day.

death grips are a meme in the sense that you can literally describe anything put on the internet ever as a meme

the beatles are a meme

god is basically a meme

Yes, they're a meme

Death Grips are objectively shit

Yes

They are the worst band of all time.

Yeah, they're the linkin park of this decade

Of course they are

They're a meme but that doesn't make them bad.

It makes them worse. Shittiest "music" ever made.

Time to get off 4chan lad

>>64204546
It's cool to not like them at this point so you will probably only get real opinions from chart/rec threads. Their sound is purposefully jarring but I would say a lot of their songs are actually very catchy. I like them.

Everything is a meme
They have a often harsh sound that repels plebs, and /mu/ is full of plebs.

Is this b8? Death Grips is as pleb as it gets.

It's not 2011 anymore, normies aren't scared of industrial memerap, you basic cunt.
>>
>>64206398
I don't know, I just feel like you guys are pretty pleb lately, everyone's scared to talk about what they like for fear of being accused of memery. It's hilarious how plen you've all become due to memes
>>
>>64206334
oh my god, you can't be serious.

meme grips is music for angsty pseudo intellectual 17 years old.
>>
>>64206415
I get this feeling that people are scared to like something that is a "meme".

>>64206398
Why are you assuming people listen to them for that?

Ironically in this scenario, you're the plen if you're still listening to a buzz band four years past their prime. Listen to more music, you fuckass.

>harsh sound that repels plebs
>>
>>64206420
See, that right there is what I'm talking about, you don't have any genuine criticism about the music, just about the fans and or the style that goes with it. What kind of pleb cares about appearances and not musical enjoyment?
>>
>>64206465
I don't think it makes me plen that I like one band that you don't like, that's just childish. It's not as though I sit around and only ever listen to Death Grips. I just don't throw music out because people on a mongolian straw forum don't like it.
>>
>>64204546
they have this weird effect
when i first heard them on mutant radio it was just kind of jarring and strange to hear but as I listened to the band more i began to appreciate it

Holy shit you /mu/ cucks will call anything good music.

You people are completely insufferable. You remind me of an experiment I saw. They lead people into an upscale restauraunt to sample new fancy bottled waters. They were elegently bottled, labeled, the whole shebang. Little did the participants know, they were all filled with garden hose water from outside the restaurant. Yet, based upon the presentation, they all gave shining remarks.

This is what you remind me of advocating for death grips
>>
>>64206712
You sound exactly like I did a few years ago, and trust me your line of thinking is way more contrived than ours. Instantly assuming that people are pretentious because of their tastes just shows you assume we think of this music as something bigger than you can comprehend, when in actuality it's as simple as people growing to like something new and different. It really isn't more contrived than that.

Death grips were a mistake.

>>64206465
>you're still listening to a buzz band four years past their prime
Proof this pleb sees music as a fashion accessory
>>
>>64206844
It's not a fashion statement to acknowledge that they peaked at TMS/NLDW. They're prolonging the inevitable breakup at this point. They only get worse and worse with every album.

That's what makes them a buzz band.


Fucking memerap cunt.

Implying GP and NOTM weren't improvements on their prior work. BP will be the most subversive, introspective, and brutal of all, a modern take on hardcore.

according to wikipedia:
A meme (/ˈmiːm/ meem) is "an idea, behavior, or style that spreads from person to person within a culture".
In other words, god actually is a meme

I had a dumbshit friend that uttered this idiocy in middle school. Here you are using it as if it's actually a real insult that belittles anyone besides yourself. What a joke.

This brings up an interesting question. How much do you think the public image of any artist affects your opinion of their work? Do seriously try to tell me that there aren't song you like a lot more because you're familiar with the artist and are somewhat attached to them, than if someone showed it to you and was like "hey check out this neat tune :-)"
>>
>>64208681
(cont.) I mean I do unironically like Death Grips but I'm fully aware that it probably has a lot to do with their image. Same with artists like Björk, image and her appearance.
>inb4 pleb taste

To answer your question perception is EVERYTHING. We are social creatures after all

I don't want to sound like a hipster but when I started listening to DG it was from a friend's recommendation and I had no idea they were so popular.

I don't even usually dig hard, fast music but I like them because their shit sounds really unique and creative, and they at least try to have interesting lyrics without being really tryhard or edgy like a lot of hip hop artists.
