I listened to the beginning of ExMil, TMS, and Bottomless Pit, and it was too fucking loud and obnoxious electronic fart noises. I listen to a lot of poppier stuff like Anco, Beatles, other classic rock, and bands like Vampire Weekend, Radiohead, and The Strokes. I also like better rap like Kanye, Chance, etc.

Ok i'm not sure if this is bait/newfaggotry/someone pretending to be OP but there aren't many ways to ease yourself into death grips other than taking a dive, and even then you might not find their sound to be interesting to you. You might want to get into some more aggressive rap or grime first before death grips to better understand them from a musical perspective
>>
>>65669772
Not saying that Kanye and Radiohead aren't great but you have the most basic of entry level bait if that is what you regularly listen to
>>
>>65669919
No, this is really OP. I don't like such aggressive music I like chiller shit. Although I do enjoy rock
>>
They're my favorite band right now. I love the instrumentation and loud, heavy, electronic futuristic synths that they have. Also MC Ride is a very good writer. Also the fact that he writes about stuff like the internet and violence and just very vulgar things I think is pretty fucking cool.

same reason why people like linkin park

Name one band that is more socially relevant, culturally relevant, or acclaimed in 2010-2016

This will be hilarious

Death Grips is edgy music for edgy angsty teenage meme kids and anyone who says otherwise is objectively wrong.
>>
So everyone is just pretending to like Death Grips right?
>>
>>65669772
reading lyrics along with TMS is what made me into a huge fan of theirs.. after that i just slowly delved into the rest their work, this was during the JD lead-up hype.. but understanding lyrics added a whole new dynamic to it all

they all pretend to like them, it's just a "being hip and cool" thing like every generation have.

Wow YouTube

Great argument, I'm now convinced the entirety of the fanbase is 16 year olds

because a few youtube comments represent every fan they have accumulated

I think in large part it comes down to the fact that they are kind of groove-less.

I primarily listen to hypnotic repetitive music where there is a steady tempo, and most of my friends do too. Some of them can't stand stuff like Death Grips or hardcore punk or free jazz where there is constant shifting rhythms, stop-and-go tendencies, or just plain fucking chaos.

Some people, like this anon here, are blessed with an ear for both extremes.

Death Grips is literally the most entry level form of complex music

If you don't get it, you're literally a pop music consuming mindless prole
>>
>>65670964
well, you can ridicule the pro-repetitive tempo contingent, but that sort of hypnotic effect is and has always been one of the core aspects of the musical experience. Silly to dismiss it.

>Death Grips is literally the most entry level form of complex music
A foolish and easily disprovable statement.

1. They're not that complex
2. They're not at all entry level. To really appreciate where Death Grips is coming from, you have to be well versed in the history of hip hop, various facets of EDM, AND noise rock/hardcord punk.

I'm a complete pleb when it comes to Hip-hop and EDM and I love Death Grips.

Start by being underage, white, and growing up in a suburban middle class home.

You can't like it. It's just absolute noise with shitty rap lyrics. Listening to it makes retards feel that they're artistic (autistic in reality) and hip.

people still use this term? embarrassing
