New Triptykon album in triple 10" box set form. Amazing package, tons of HR Giger art on the cover and in the booklet, plus on the inner jackets.
The album lived up to my expectations from the last one, and maybe exceeds it.
Absolutely incredible in their depth and imagination, which even the best metal bands sometimes lack. Easily the best metal group on earth right now.

How do you feel about the new Lantlôs?

How's Mr. Curtain feeling about this one?

I haven't picked it up yet. I had planned on it, but I no longer have the kind of money to buy every record I want as soon as it comes out, and throw a shit ton of stuff I happen to see while I'm at the store on top of it.

I chose FUTURE DEATH instead this week, and I'm quite happy with it.

Severian 06.04.2014 09:44 PM

Anyway, my last albums purchased are:

FUTURE DEATH - Special Victim
Got so-so reviews from what I've read thus far, (basically C+ to B) but I fucking love it! It really feels like a summer companion piece to Perfect Pussy's Say Yes to Love, which (fuck the haters) is still probably in my top three for the year. But while PP breathed life into a dead genre and made it sound ferocious and really feels like a just as powerful modern millennial take on hardcore and riot grrl, FD is successfully channeling Hart & Mould, early Flaming Lips, and the colorful acid-pop

 


Some metal... kinda. Shoegaze metal. Better than the Alcest record.

 


And everyone knows this classic brilliant game changin' son of a bitch!

Most songs are great but I think the production and backing band (rhythm section especially) could have been a bit better.

The album also really needs several listens to get into.

My favorite record from her remains Epic followed by this one and Tramp.

Nah, everyone who's anyone knows it's THE De La Soul album. It came at the perfect time, and it had the perfect vibe (not too needy, not too pushy, not too great of a creative jump for it to sound like a different... But almost.)

I'm not sure why it's not getting love from the general hip hop fan base, but the "serious" fans know it's their "Midnight Mauraders." It's influence is not even a point of contention for the true advocates of hip hop as music.

Not to be snarky of anything, I'm just saying we're better Human Beings than people who don't like this album. ;)

Severian 06.08.2014 09:14 PM

 


I gotta hand it to this bitch; something about this album feels fresh. It's like what hip hop needed. I hope everyone bitching about her inclusion in this year's "Freshman Class" know why the fuck they're bitching, because from all I can tell she is the real deal.

Vladislav Delay (aka Ripatti) - "Ripatti 03"; third volume of experimental footwork releases on Delay's "Ripatti" imprint. I started with the first, and only recently realized that this was even out. But it's brilliant, and a 2014 release to boot! Good shit.

Wait, he recorded a separate spanish language version of his album?! That is the first thing I have respected him for, a sensation I did not anticipate feeling in my lifetime.

Rob Instigator 09.09.2014 08:14 AM

That he did.

I've been mostly amazon mp3 lately, with a lot of Throwing Muses and some Breeders.

LP wise, would have to be "Mandatory Fun" by Weird Al.

I have been listening to the self-titled album a whole hell of a lot recently. I realized that I never really listened to this band. I bought the odd record, and took part in conversations about them, but I don't think I actually heard them until 2013. Kinda like how I never really heard the Flaming Lips until 1998.

I've decided the Muses deserve to be really bitten into, so that's what I'm doing.

Fucking great noise.
