Well that sucked. I like it when they're having fun, but have fun in a Pillbox hat kind of way, not a way that just wastes everyone's time.

What did they mean by this?

Do you guys unironically like this?
I'm an immigrant from other boards but I have been visiting the creative ones lately, like /fa/ and /mu/, /fa/ likes to wear plastic bags and space boots and you guys like this?
Is this an inside joke?
Thanks
>>

>Do you guys unironically like this?
the music? yeah, it's great
the video's fine, it's pretty funny desu
>>

lunarcore is not a real thing

the video is a joke but it's one of the best songs of bottomless pit
>>
>>66301485
>immigrant from other boards

You could have just said /b/ you uncultured swine
>>
>>66301485
i love the song, obviously nobody's stroking their beards pondering the deeper meaning of the video though, it's clearly a joke
>>
>>66301485
No /mu/ "likes" death grips, like /a/ "likes" Kill la Kill, regulars hate it, cross boarder casuals love it and feel like they're taking part in board culture
>>
>>66301537
>>66301508

Can you explain in detail why you like it, the melody, lyrics, some message behind it?
As a normie with casual music taste I can't help but feel people pretend to like this stuff because they want to fit into some sub-culture

i've been on the death grips train since they did the nldw arg on /mu/, and the /mu/ train for too fucking long. they're still one of my favorite conceptual art exhibitions anchored by sound and vision.
>>
>>66301559
t. Someone who can't handle the fact that a majority of the board likes a band that he hates
>>
>>66301594

so it is about "art"?
you dont like how it sounds?
>>
>>66301577
i like it because it's hard-hitting and invokes feelings of raw aggression. there's no super-cool subculture of people pretending to like le patricione deaf grapes, it's pretty simple why people like it.
>>66301593
such satire... wow...
the video's clearly a joke, moron
>>66301620
nah, i love the way it sounds.
"conceptual art exhibitions anchored by sound and vision" is a reference to what death grips called themselves when they faked breaking up, it's a meme
>>
>>66301642
>the video's clearly a joke, moron
where do you draw the line?
>>
>>66301764
between what? joke or serious art?
when a band member is moving part of a shoe to simulate it rapping, i'm pretty certain it's a joke.
i mean, there can be art which is absurd, and you could argue that this video is just that, but i don't think anyone could say that they were being fully serious.

What did he mean by this, /mu/?
>>
>>66301856
between satire/jokes and postmodernism.
>>
>>66302158
not that guy, but there is no definitive line. it wouldn't be postmodernism if there was.
>>
>>66302267
so you have no idea what postmodernism is
as expected of dg fans
>>
>>66302418
no, what I'm saying is that it's pretty much based completely off of interpretation. not to say that's a bad thing, I'm just saying that that's the point of it in a way.
>>
>>66294438
guys. you're being meme'd by death gripes
anti-art fucking sucks
>>
>>66301577
I like DG's approach to electronic music. It's really catchy, but manages not to get boring too quickly (at least in my opinion). They just have good hooks and when they don't I think they compensate with atmosphere.

If you think DG is so weird and unlistenable that people are pretending to like them, then you gotta spend a bit more time on /mu/ and listen to the really whacked out shit that gets posted here. After that, you'll start to see threads emerging of people feeling frustrated and as though something's wrong with them because they've listened to an experimental album over five times already but just can't force themselves to like it.
>>
>>66302418
I don't see anything terrible inaccurate about his statement. How would you describe postmodernism then, and how would that description clash with his statement that meaning (in art especially) is no longer explicit or even really defined?
>>
This is so fucking dank.

The fact that people even like this is embarrassing.

Death grips could literally shit in box and people would pay for it.
>>
THEYRE UPLOADING TRASH GUYS DONT YOU GET IT FUCK
>>
>>66302802
I don't think you understand the meaning of dank.
>>
>>66302802
People like it because it's humorous, not because they think it's some stroke of genius. Lighten up.

I used to dislike this cover, but I think it's only grown on me with time. I don't know why, it's a really cheaply thrown together one, but it somehow fits it well.

I preferred the original cover

I think if you would try to get any deeper meaning out of it it's that the shoe represents the music and the hands Death Grips but Idk. It's was a nice upload none the less.
>>
>>66304101
idk, here's what I got out of the video.
the shoe (Dr. Martens, a shoe that is commonly associated with punk culture) is broken apart, deconstructed, manipulated and reconstructed by a band that does that similarly with their music. sorry if that doesn't make any sense I'm typing on a phone and can't be fucked rereading and editing.

>>
>>66294438
this could be one of two things in my mind:

it's either them catering to the lowest common denominator of their fanbase (which also happens to be the majoirty) that either listen to death grips because they're a "meme" or because they're intellectual posers that will eat up and attempt to extract deeper meaning from anything they shit out.
or
they got bored and decided to mess around with a shoe and film it and make it a music video because they don't really care

it could be a mixture of both but really either one is likely
>>
>>66304565
Thanks for the detective work mr. internet detective

Did you ever consider that the explination could be something entirely outside of what you, some asshole sitting behind a computer thousands of miles away, not knowing any of DG personally, could be able to pin down exactly?

But seriously thank you for your input and take on the video i know we were all waiting with baited breath for your treasured input on things

same. I got into them with GP and then NotM, and honestly everything I've heard since then has been downhill. none of their other stuff compares desu, I was really hoping for BP to go full DG2.0 like Hot Head made it out to be but it didn't and I was pretty disappointed
