this is incredible except for the few guitar songs in the beginning.

love the college rock tracks at the beginning

by **advcmt** » Wed Oct 29, 2014 8:38 pm

hearing this album happily reminds me of the time when I saw hype williams two years ago.

they started their set by playing about 20 minutes of the maybach music sample looped and gradually unfurled to its full "m-m-m-maybach music" length, over the repeated "sooo solid" sung at 48 seconds in this youtube.

pretty disappointed there isn't a song called 'sideman' on this album
i have faith dean will name a song sideman in the future

by **nosebleeds** » Wed Oct 29, 2014 8:58 pm

This album is breaking my brain.

by **advcmt** » Wed Oct 29, 2014 9:07 pm

hope he does another stone island of only college rock tracks

by **ripersnifle** » Wed Oct 29, 2014 10:51 pm

'100' and '50 cent' got me feelin' some hardcore musical formative year nostalgia, with the simply lovely slacked riffs that slay anything say, real estate have ever done except with 1/3 less notes and noodle. I love the female singers short interjections.
it just seems fuckin weird in the first place this dude is playing this kinda stuff. i don't really know what that is. like for real, everything he does is seemingly so fucking cheap and flimsy but like so care free and easy and his voice is terrible and out of key and unsung, but there is such beauty and invisible truth in the simplicity, and raw ugliness, and abbreviated soul.
these songs are like the all forgotten warmup thoughtless riffs, and like heat of the moment sample loops you made fucking around and then your friend is like, whoa, play that again! and you can't remember what it was, but you try for awhile and never get back to it. good for you, better for him. he just sort of exists and produces in the autonomic process zone like driving to your destination and not remembering anything of the trip. did you have to brake for a car in front of you at any point?
he just doesn't give a fuck and he's mastered the fuckless life force flow to full effect

nice and accurate write-up, 3xe.

how can you not like the guitar tracks

by **dog liver** » Thu Oct 30, 2014 9:32 am

starting the day off listening to this was the best thing i could've done

despite its outsider leanings/vibe, it's a real polished album

forever is the jam

I was high on my couch thinking, "This is post-music. He's created something entirely new." Then I laughed and slowly put away my paraphernalia.

by **frankie teardrop** » Thu Oct 30, 2014 10:51 am

i like it. i like it very much. it has plenty of room to grow.
but no way is it better than the redeemer.

by **bongo** » Thu Oct 30, 2014 10:56 am

this is one of those rare records where a fair amount of my time spent listening to it is me marveling that someone sat in a room somewhere and somehow made these songs

by **bongo** » Thu Oct 30, 2014 11:05 am

"molly and aquafina"

that as song name

by **Dead_Wizard** » Thu Oct 30, 2014 11:15 am

I feel like the last stretch of songs from X and beyond is his best material to date, but I'm not sure if I like this more than The Redeemer yet. Glad we're all kind of sitting here dumbfounded by it.
