Every Korn album is Korn's worst album.

BTW, shouldn't it be 'half-assed' in the thread title? Or is it supposed to be self-demonstrating?

I wasn't going to mention it, but you're right.

Exo 07-07-2016 09:30 AM

I'll admit when I'm wrong. I'll change that.

I'm doing that today at some point. I'm too busy with other listens right now. It'll be done today though for sure.

The Batlord 07-11-2016 06:33 PM

And hurry up with that ICP album.

Old Time Relijun - Lost Light - Submitted by Frownland

Procrastination over. Let's do this.

Okay, it's started a lot differently than I expected for some reason. Great vocals on the opening track. Definitely getting some low fi vocal vibes here which I think suits the overall sound. Guttural, almost animal like vocals and off putting time signatures on the guitar. Obvious Beefheart influence is obvious.

Already digging the opening to this "Cold Water" track. Driving bass. Mmhmmm.

Really digging this so far Frown.

I'm noticing it's getting a bit more frantic and a bit more chaotic. I like the progression.

Hey! Horn section on Tigers in the Temple. Rad.

I kinda want to listen to this stoned now.

Funky now. Album is pretty sweet all the way through. Really digging the drums and bass and the vocals give it that dirty feel. Seems to be ending with a bang too.

Sweet ass album dude. I liked it a lot.

4.5/5
(I'm switching back to this rating format)

Fav Tracks - Cold Water, Tigers in the Temple, The Rising Water The Blinding Light

Damn straight you love it, OTR is one of the best post punk bands out there.

Next rec: Moss Lime - Zoo Du Quebec

Not a dud in their discography imo. Lost Light is my favourite though.

Daydream Society - Dayz End - Submitted by YorkeDaddy

My initial thought were that this was going to be very shoegazy after seeing the name of the band and album. I wasn't too far off but the opening track was very dreamlike but definitely felt like just an intro. The second track starts off with some keyboards so let's see where this takes us.

I'm liking this so far. It's almost like a Boards of Canada album so not very shoegazy at all. Wonderful use of spoken word at the end of "Nailed Down". Yorke, you blaze to this a lot don't you?

F*ck I might get stoned to this. OH **** CRUNCHY GUITAR NOW.

I can't place these spoken word segments. The voices sound familiar but I just can't place them.

Lots of interesting textures with the guitar use on "Brink" which I'm liking a lot.

Now we got some poetry up in this bitch. I don't like the poetry, I can tell that the kid really loves what he does and to me that makes the poetry worse. I don't care about your pretty words. Sorry. Get to the music. Oh, here it is...

This is totally one person isn't it? Yup. It is. Just saw that info on the bandcamp page. Gotta say, he's talented as hell. This is some intricate stuff going on here. I'm not sure if I'd listen to this again but it has certainly entertained me. Three tracks left.

"Fixated" has a lot of emotion behind it. Might be my favorite track on the album.

Enjoyed the ambiance of the final track and again, the spoken word.

Good album. I liked it as a soundscape a lot. I may actually revisit this again.

3.5/5

Fav Tracks - Nailed Down, Brink, Fixated
Recommended - Boards of Canada, From Monument to Masses, Autoisolation

One of my favorite obscurities. Instrumental hip hop with an electronic/jazzy side.

Nah, he's a dicksucking hack.

Exo 07-16-2016 11:47 AM

Wait, did I just review one of YorkeDaddy's albums?

Lol.

I'll be honest, I never checked out his music before so I honestly didn't realize that it was his. Well, at least I gave my honest opinion. Certainly wasn't biased at all. F*ck, I'm retarded sometimes.

Luckily when I reviewed one of his shit platters I knew whose it was, so I did everything but actually review the music, so he can never prove I like it.

We're musicbanters now? The site has downloaded into our brains and turned us into mindless memetic agents of digital infection?!

Like, you need to do this one.

Hey my man, what are your thoughts on Hot Thoughts by Spoon? I'm addicted.

What are your thoughts on Meteora by Linkin Park?

Violent J - Wizard of the Hood Submitted by some miserable c*nt

This is f*cking awful. The beat sounds like it was created by a special needs child's spasms. I'm glad this guy actually did the research and watched the movie.

Who'd they get to play the tuba in the second track? I ask because it's probably going to be the only musician present on this album and I want to give proper credit.

These midgets are really happy that the wicked b*tch is dead. I bet Violent J came up with the idea of this album by happening to come across TCM while trying to find Jerry Springer and saw The Wizard of Oz and just asked "Whose this wicked b*tch they just killed?" Then, BAM, album is born.

These guys probably smoke the raunchiest sh*ttiest weed ever.

I think ICP's whole deal and lifestyle was that they realized they were so trashy but were too lazy to change their sh*tty lives so they just went with it. The fact that they make more money than most of us is a crime.

Oh, yeah, this is an album review. Surprise, it still sucks. I'm halfway through. Every beat on this thing is so amateur I'm shocked. You would think they'd actually learn how to make a beat after all these years but that would require a capacity to learn.

Also, most of these songs sound the same.

I skipped through some of these songs. I'll admit that.

I can't review this album without being concerned for the unattended baby that's lying down on the kitchen table of 50% of the people who love this album waiting for the parents to stop smoking awful weed in the living room and change the damn diaper for the first time in four days because their welfare check came in and they had enough money to put a gallon of gas in their 1982 ford ranger to go down to the store and steal some diapers.

I bet fans think The Wizard's Palace is the best song on this album because it has the best flow and beat out of all this trash...but don't get me wrong, it's still trash.

Somebody is actually playing the piano on Axes Swingin'? Sounds like they watched a bunch of Goosebumps episodes and tried to duplicate the theme song.

I ended the last song early because I'm afraid my neighbors will call the cops on me for trying to bring down the property value of my neighborhood.

Bitch, I've seen him talk about post-rock. He might not be as into it as he used to be, but he has a history as a crescendo-core loser.

I've seen you talk about post-rock as well.

Can a mod please change the title to "Exo's Half-Year Album Review Thread," cause that's how long I waited and still there's no reviewing my album.
