>Martin Shkreli is probably going to pay to join the Cred Forums mod team

How much longer do you think Cred Forums has?

One thousand years.

Shkreli strikes me as the type of guy to fund Cred Forums and keep it as is

I want to pierce sshx's cervix with my glans penis and ejaculate so much warm semen into her womb that it floods her fallopian tubes and impregnates her immediately

is shkreli the most successful edgelord alive?

ok forget what I said before he's going to make this place a meme cesspit
also jesus christ timeless is pretentious

cool guy

his twitter is hella funny

Tuco, here's my rec
George Stavis - Labyrinths

Goldie - Timeless
What a pretentious and boring album. Entirely worth missing out on.

I just found out Kenny G is on saxophone in The Rippingtons
dis gon b good

replacing trans-x with yamir's new thing because I can't find trans-x except spotify and it's not an option right now.

Good Morning /daily/!

Listening to Pinegrove from yesterday's recs cause it is the shortest. Don't feel like I will like it after the first song, but whatever.

Pinegrove is awesome. Cardinal took me a sec to get into, but I've seem them play live twice now and again in December. Love these guys.

omg finally i'm not alone
this newports album is comfy

you should listen to Mingus asap
It's not really my thing, but it's ok so far. Interesting country influences

aight ill throw that on after newports

Sudden Death - Suddenly ... (1995)
>heavy psych, hard rock

Good enough heavy psych, does what you'd expect but rarely does anything to astound. Works well in it's more overdriven, heavy moments (it's a heavy psych album, what the fuck else would you expect?), but the cleaner, more atmospheric bits try hard to evoke a spooky atmosphere but end up failing and becoming uninteresting gateways to the songs that actually matter. The vocalist is also a bit of an issue, he's actually really good in the cleaner portions, ending up being pretty much the only noteworthy part of them, but his clean voice clashes heavily with the distorted guitars and pounding drums. Check it out if you like this kind of music, it's nothing special but it gets the job done decently enough

2.5

Jesse Winchester - Jesse Winchester (1970)
>singer/songwriter

The dictionary definition of MOR. It's what happens when you take the wit out of a Dylan album, the experimentation out of a Buckley album, the passion out of a Neil Young album, the jangle of a Byrds album, it's a standard singer/songwriter album through and through, and frankly this isn't a bad thing. It's perfect for what it tries to accomplish, Winchester's voice is nice, the country elements are executed tastefully, and the songs are decently catchy. This issue is that it's just not at all memorable, and it's a style of music that's been done better by dozens of other albums. There's nothing objectionable here, at all, there's just nothing of note either.

2.5-

Someone said Akira wasn't very good.

Public Spreads the News - Newport Pleasure!
If Com Truise is about what was exciting back in that era of neon lights and crazy shapes, then Newport Pleasure! is about what was relaxing.

It sort of clicked half-way through. I think it was good, especially with all the country slide-guitar and banjos popping up here and there. However, I really disliked the vocalist.

doggie
help

what's up?

>Com Truise
>exciting

>implying the goal and premise of Com Truise is supposed to be chill, smooth 80s synthwave

woops what I meant to say was that I DONT GET IT HELP

you don't get Black Saint?

>implying that just because something is fast paced or loud at points means it is exciting

NO I'M ON THE BEGINNING OF TRIO AND I DON'T GET IT

listen here you little shit
I don't care if you sleeped through In Decay, but if you sleeped through In Decay, you're gonna find Newport Pleasure to be literal 80s white noise.

Leave it for now then and return to it later. Don't force yourself to like something.

>implying I even cared about listening to your dull ass synth wave album in the first place

>implying I even like com truise besides having Flightwave in my F1 spotify playlist

Sorry for making a comparison

Apparently, Kim was robbed at gunpoint but is fine.

Glad you liked it. I felt kinda the same way for it even tho I had no problem with the voice, it reminds me of Painted Shut and The World Is A Beautiful Place [...].

Just saw this, sorry. Why is if for me?

yeah. it's a link for one of my recs.
the a side of Labor is up for streaming, but i can't find a dl yet. i got a physical.

Yea, as I said I'd prefer a streammable album. I'll make an exception for the one you linked me cause it seems interesting tho.

sry bb.
it's easily one of my favorites from the year so hope u like it.

expected to be higher

rateyourmusic.com/release/ep/akufen/psychometry_vol__3/
if you're not tired of dance music yet

Same, I was betting 8.9 only because they wouldn't give another 9+ so soon after Bon Iver

this album puts me in such a good mood

>Venetian Snares - Doll Doll Doll
I liked the dark grimy atmosphere of the album, but it honestly hurt to listen to after a while. I kept having to turn the volume down and my ears were ringing a bit after. It was cool how all of these sounds came out of nowhere on syncopated beats while still maintaining a steady rhythm. 6/10

>Mikey Dread - WWIII
This was so laid back and fun to groove too. I can't say i've listened to any reggae at all because i had an image in my head that it was all bad. Lyrically this album didn't do much for me because it consisted of a bunch of "why can't we all just get along" which is what i picture every album in the genre is about. The instrumental stuff was just so feel good that i ended up really liking it. 7/10

∆3 triangle moves on

A lot of reggae is very political actually. And although it can appear artists take a more laid back, "why can't we be friends?" approach to the way of transmitting those messages, I feel it is more the general mood of the music that reinforces those misconceptions.
The concept of "Babylon" for example is a heavily reoccurring subject in reggae music. It is an overarching term for systematic state and police oppression of the working class people in Jamaica.
WWIII does have a lot laid back songs about praising Jah and stuff(the opener is literally just shouting out to different dub engineers). The lyrics deal a lot with the impending nuclear crisis of the time (obvs), government oppression, the corruption of capitalism, and the growth of commercialism.

Nicely put. I was about to say the same thing but you summed it up quite nicely.

What're your favorite reggae albums by the way? Seems like you're pretty heavy into the genre... and I've mostly heard stuff by a few big names.

I'm mostly into dub, but I've been steadily trying to explore more roots and rocksteady over the past several months.
My top several albums would be:
Keith Hudson and Soul Syndicate - Nuh Skin Up
Dadawah - Peace and Love
Dr. Alimantado - Best Dressed Chicken in Town
Mikey Dread - WWIII
Scientist - Scientist Meets the Space Invaders
King Tubby - Dub from the Roots

03/10 - Bon Iver "22, Infinity"
Listens: 3
Choice: God, Strafford Apts, T

Justin Vernon is an incredibly solid songwriter, no matter which project he is working on, and he has played it safe with his Bon Iver project and Volcano Choir for the most part. With "22, Infinity" he seems to be reaching out with sonic experimentalism augmenting his largely well-written pieces. Unfortunately, whatever he is grasping for seems to slip through his fingers and as a result "22, Infinity" feels aimless and loses half its cuts in the crossfire.

The album is the best when Vernon tones down his instincts to be ridiculous on the central three tracks (`God` through `T`) and later on `Circle`. Not to say that his experimentation was a complete failure- `Deathbreast` very much works as a composition and makes great use of the chaos he seems to want to juxtapose with his pieces' usual serenity.

I quite liked exactly half the album (as noted above), unfortunately with 5/10 of the tracks fizzling out- especially the utterly pathetic `Creeks`- I can't really say I like this album.

BAD

oh and my next rec is Gong - Camembert Electrique

Nice, thanks man! Haven't heard any of these. Definitely adding them to my backlog and listening when I finish my current chart.

Charles Mingus - The Black Saint and the Sinner Lady
I JUST DON'T GET IT. This just doesn't make sense, I mean it's not terrible, but it's not good either. I know it's supposed to be experimental, improvised, avant garde, etc. but it DOESNT MAKE SENSE.
NO ONE HERE (who I have in my rym friends list so pretty much all of you) HAS RATED THIS BELOW A 4 ON RYM AND I JUST DON'T GET IT. I can maybe see a 3.5 but a 4+? That just seems unheard of. How does it make you feel anything? Hanatarash made me feel more and it was just a bunch of Japs screaming and breaking shit. Hell, TIMELESS made me feel more and it's nothing but overdrawnout pretentious drum n bass. That's the album's biggest fault, the only thing you feel from Black Saint is confused after expecting so much more.
I'm gonna take Dog's advice and just wait for a while and then try it again.

The Rippingtons - Moonlighting
I know this is gonna hurt a lot of feelings. Especially after what I said about the highly avant, experimental, improvisational Charles Mingus.

Smooth Jazz is good.

This was such a better time than Mingus, I felt relaxed and yet invigorated, I had so much fun listening to this album. I don't know how his solo work fares, but Kenny G did a good job on this! Everything is beautifully layered and there are so many great moments throughout this album. I never doubted it while listening to it, something I struggle with a lot where I wonder "are they going to mess up here?" "Will this drag out for too long?" Etc.. That never happened here because I kept being swept off my feet. This album was such a joy to listen to and I feel like it will get better with time. Who says jazz needs to be avant or experimental? Keep your anxious tapes of field recordings overlayed with an old, frail man randomly playing a soulful sad piano, I'll be relaxing to SMOOTH JAZZ.

Forgot the chart doh

>Charles Mingus - The Black Saint and the Sinner Lady
>I mean it's not terrible, but it's not good either.
>it's not good

Cool!
Dadawah and King Tubby are definitely essential listening

>enjoys shitty synthwave
>doesn't "get" mingus
>gives Kenny G a 9
So the pattern continues

I only like synthwave when watching motorsports

>watches motorsports
How far can one man fall?'

You should try it some time just put on some synthwave and watch some F1 (suzuka this weekend!) It's great fun
Drill and bass works well too

>Jessica Pratt - On Your Own Love Again

She is good at singing but I didn't like her voice that much. The album felt mostly empty although it had some interesting tunes. I got bored quite fast while listening to it. it wasn't really bad but it was really plain.

5/10

(Pic isn't updated)

Also the lo-fi production is really meh

We have the same ratings by day so far. Let's keep it up!

Also 5/10 is bad?

5/10 is mediocre. It was in between but I wasn't feeling to mark it as a good album so I went for "bad" instead.

That is fair.

Today we started the first class that I feel I have literally no preceding knowledge of: environmental psychology. I expected it to be more about how the environment shapes us, but this first lecture was about climate change. I don't know how to feel about that.

>that SWOT
Isn't this guy some serious businessdude? Shouldn't he understand SWOT by now? Is this a troll?

We're assigned so much reading material, though. About 20 recent studies, one compendium which includes about 15 more studies, one extract from a book at about 60 pages, as well as one full textbook. Gonna be some intensive few weeks.

Anybody listened to this? Psychedelic rock + Brötzmann sounds interesting.
Also, what are your opinioins on Ritual? Listening right now, I don't dig the focus on the vocals, but overall it's good so far.

So, what does our new owner listens to?

definitely death grips

Rhythim Is Rhythim - It Is What It Is
Nah, it's p boring. Guess has some ok textures.

Roy Of The Ravers - 2 Late 4 Love
This is much better. Still a little too repetitive even for me.

He once said on stream whilst playing guitar that he thought "Time Code" by Bright Eyes was the best song in the world

Well folk isn't that bad afterall

Yes, they were cool. Ancient methods especially. It's like even more rhythmic power noise. Gives me nice esplendor vibes among other stuff.

shkreli is based, why do people hate him?

his memes are lame but I generally dig his whole capitalism preach

I'm a big dummmy
>Shakti With John McLaughlin
Very good though still somewhat below natural elements, where they get into a studio and really work to get the best sound in smaller doses. This is instead a live recording with two main pieces reaching almost 20 and 30 minutes. They still deliver some very impressively fast and accurate playing and you can feel they're pulling out a great show, but nonetheless has a few lows where the music doesn't feel too focused: some parts where it's mostly the drums improvising and where some of the members attempt something to fill the space but don't really feel like they know where to go. In contrast, the highs in this record are really high as well.

>I'm a big dummmy
Nah, you're a big meme

Also if you have any recs, you'd like to throw in my way, I don't really know what to listen to tomorrow.

first three you havent heard

Not my top three but still some of my favorites that I didn't see on your RYM:

Hank Mobley - Soul Station

Sibeylle Baier - Colour Green

Three Six Mafia - Underground, Vol 1

Lemme know if you've heard any of those and I'll give you other recs instead

Of course I do, just not as much as these three

Loveless
Spirit they've gone, spirit they've vanished
the ape of naples

(excluding the lecture series and the german rap if you will)

It's a good album mate, come back when you can make an å :^)
and hey, Unkown Pleasures >>>>> Closer

>its the real Aqam

>the first three are all Enter Shikari
oh well

Sun City Girls - Dante's Disneyland Inferno
Neil Young - Dead Man
Electric Masada - At the Mountains of Madness

Nice, check everything Ancient Methods has released, its absolutely stunning work.

oh, i searched for jazz on releases on your rym and it didn't show up, but it does now
i was confused since i did remember it on some calendar of yours
well since you seem to like ah um quite a lot, check out some other releases of his
and you'll also like bill evan's complete 1961 village vanguard sessions, his best material right there
will do!

mmh maybe you could change ape of naples to either beat happening - you turn me on / or jordaan mason - divorce lawyers i shaved my head

I enjoy a lot of Bill Evans but Jazz På Svenska hits a different sweet spot. I own Jazz På Ryska on vinyl but I wasn't as big on it as På Svenska.

Joanna Newsom - Ys
Current 93 - Soft Black Stars
Otomo Yoshihide's New Jazz Orchestra - Dreams

Or if you're ready for 3h30 of music : Clemencic Consort - Carmina Burana

5 or 6
Ty famioli
Burial - Rival Dealer
Massive Attack - Mezzanine
Preoccupations - Preoccupations

yeah, but i recommended the complete vanguard sessions because you gave an 8 to sunday night at the village vanguard, and I think anybody who loves that record will enjoy the complete sessions
can't really think of something similar to jazz pa svenska off the top of my head, it's quite an unusual format but also differs in sound from other bass and piano, partially due to the swedish folk music influences i guess
if i think of something i will get back at you

That's fine, not really looking for recs right now, kind of burned out on music and hoping to find something exciting that I'll love

>hoping to find something exciting that I'll love
ye, I just thought of reccing something rather than my top 3 (bc I think you've already heard black saint and dance of the moon and the sun) and radigue is quite long and maybe not your cup of tea

Devo - Are We Not Men?
Simon Finn - Pass the Distance
Pierre Henry- Variations Pour Un Porte et Un Soupir

>variations for a door
what

Yeah but while I've heard a majority of people's favorites I feel like I need to reivist several of them (I've only listened to Dance Of The Moon And Sun once I think and don't remember much). Hoping to find some new stuff I'd rate 7 or higher

Yeah, give it another try then. I listened to it a bit more than two years ago and I thought it was okay. Then a month after or so I gave it another listen and started to really like it and on.

youtube.com/watch?v=wwOipTXvNNo

Variations for a door and a sigh
It's electro acoustic music made out of manipulated door creaks and sighs
8/10 meme

damn, nice vid dude, where'd you get it?
sounds interesting but it's electroacoustic so i think i will pass

Some guy named Smurmelade gave it to me.

don't know him but sounds like a nerd to be honest

He is tbqh. He has bad taste in white jazz pianists too.

yeah doesn't sound like someone worth posting about
you should post one of those morton feldman pics instead

Alban Berg Quartett - Schubert: String Quartet No. 15
FKA Twigs - M3LL155X
John Coltrane - Sun Ship

Jazz pa riska is p good too btw

Oh you said that already..........

King Krule- s/t
Sondre Lerche- s/t (w/bonus tracks)
Modest mouse- interstate 8

Alright.

Three Trapped Tigers - Silent Earthling
>math rock, post rock

This was recommended to me by my brother who described it as a fusion of ASIWYFA’s sugar-rush guitar explosions and the harsh, surgical speed-electronics of Squarepusher’s recent albums. If that sounds like fun to you, then definitely give this a listen. Many of the (all instrumental) tracks on this album come off as fun as hell jam sessions, clearly not set on blowing you away with songwriting or atmosphere, but rather with soaring synth lines, triumphant riffs, drum virtuosity, and - dare I say it - ***crescendos***.

Yes, the band likes starting quiet and ending loud. Take for example “Engrams” which starts off with a simple looping chord progression, slowly adding 80s synths and rhythm guitars before finally introducing a thick bass synth and a Zach Hill-esque snare drum line at around the 2 minute mark, before building up to full synth nirvana, complete with chorus vocals and “the same synth line as earlier but played over way more instrumentation to make a really epic sounding coda”. Sure, the formula of just adding more and more instrumental complexity over the course of 5 minutes might be old in itself, but TTT manages to do it with enough melodic and rhythmic enthusiasm that it really makes you forget how simple the volume/time graph is.

The band keeps the backbones of these jams diverse enough over the album’s 50 minute runtime, such as the swaggering “Tekkers” that starts with an Autechre-channeling IDM beat before moving into some reverb drenched synth-tar grooving, or “Kraken”, which builds itself patiently around a lumbering bassline. Granted, the climaxes of each song sound pretty similar to one another, which is a bit of a gripe I have with the album, but its really easy to just sit back and let this album take you on a neon-pixelated roller coaster ride with it.

Overall: Fun as fuck. I’d kill to be in a band that gets as much enjoyment out of playing music as this band seems to have. Until then, I’ll settle for staring at it in wonder.

Jim O'Rourke - Bad Timing
Washington Phillips - The Key to the Kingdom
John Fahey - Guitar Vol. 4 (The Great San Bernardino Birthday Party and Other Excursions)

>Oranssi Pazuzu - Värähtelijä
They nailed meshing black metal with psychedelic rock. The result is a jaw-dropping album full of great ideas. I've heard they've been namedropping Swans in interviews and it's not hard to see why since there is a lot of similarities on how they let the song expands and progress. Most probably one of the most essential metal albums in the last few years.
8/10

>The Dead C - Trouble
I found it less challenging than the other Dead C album that I listened to (The White House) but by no means it is less noisy and unforgiving. This album consists of 5 more or less long noisy jams. The tracks have no beginning or end. They start as if the band has been playing for a long time already and they stop abruptly. The music is basically a dialogue of distorted guitars and dry sounding drums. It's messy and it seems that there's no aim but it's not completely without structure.
7/10

>The Dwarfs of East Agouza - Bes
A wacky eastern psych jam in the pure style of the Sun City Girls. Too bad that it seems to be meandering most of the time. A lot of tracks, especially the first one, sounds like the soundtrack of a N64 video game taking place in a jungle. The last track goes full improv.
6/10

>M. Sage - Rife w/ Typo
If you like Since I Left You or OPN maybe listen to this album of Orange Milk fashioned plunderphonics with jazz sample. It's enjoyable for the first few song but then it starts to lose momentum because the tracks are extremely repetitive.
5/10

That Pazuzu album is prime. Metal AOTY probably, imo

I'd put Terminal Redux before that but I agree. There's also a new Deathspell Omega coming out which could claim the crown.

That new DSO is just an EP though, isn't it?

and what's your favourite song on Redux?

>That new DSO is just an EP though, isn't it?
Oh i think you're right. Too bad. It's gonna be good anyway.

>and what's your favourite song on Redux?
Hard to tell but it's between Charging the Void and Cygnus Terminal. What's yours ?

Yea, I'd probably say Charging the Void too, but I feel like the whole album hasn't really clicked with me yet. Black Future was definitely more immediate but this one seems like its going to be a slow burn

what's daily blasting this evening?

i do not "blast", as you heathens put it, i immerse

Ibrica Jusić - Ibrica Jusić (1974)
>contemporary folk, singer/songwriter, chanson

Well, the rip I downloaded is fucking horrendous (/so/ much surface noise a few tracks become unlistenable), so that probably hindered my enjoyment of this album a little bit, but I can definitely still make out that this album is pretty corny and it really awkwardly juxtaposes subtle, sensitive singer/songwriter music with bombastic orchestral music. The guy-and-his-guitar singer/songwriter sound is actually really nice, a bit generic, but nice. The orchestral music, on the other hand, is totally cheesy and over the top. It absolutely sounds like the music to a rejected James Bond film, but that doesn't exactly make for a good listening experience. Pretty solid, but spotty.

Good Morning /daily/!

I'm not sure if I want to hear the new Bonny Bear album or watch the Radiohead Mexico show. Gotta decide fast :)

My next megachart! (notably less mega because that last chart took over a year to complete)

start with Upgrade and Afterlife

Sup lads.
Did shrooms with my childhood friend and his buddy in the park yesterday.
Talked about philosophy, neuroscience and particle physics for like 6 hours.
The sun was coming down in 2D planes of separated colours and I spent most of the time looking at trees.
Good times.

Super busy with school this week, but I'll try to fit in some Coltrane when I can.
Next up is #25: Ballads.

hello this is my feel
youtube.com/watch?v=cpoAg5SwmMU
thanks

Good shit, especially Chiang Ma Funeral Music
the dithering on those gradients could use some work
Sounds pretty

it's fragile

This Bon Iver album sounds like someone listened to James Blake and decided to add distortion on some of the instruments.

...

gg

that entire last row is top tier, but there's a lot of amazing shit on there.
good luck fetusman.

You finished it! Whew! Nice stuff. I'm glad you enjoyed my recs! Isn't Cross Paths wonderful?

My god was it really that long?
Time stands still here

The people comparing the new biver to Age of Adz need to stop

Justin on suicide watch
That explains everything, and I can't say I'm surprised
It's low hanging fruit

will do
really looking forward to this chart
thank you!
Cross Paths was legit the comfiest shit on the whole thing
yeah, I've listened to a lot more albums than just the ones on the chart since I have a pretty bad attention span so I'd go for a month here and there where I'd just forget about the chart but it's still crazy to think that over a year ago I started it and now I've just finished it. A lot of things have happened in my life since the conception of the chart so it almost feels like a chapter of my time has ended.

Tried listening to the new Pixies record, couldn't handle it. Switched to Doolitle.

I kinda enjoyed it a little bit but that might just be me longing for new Pixies material. It's still better than Indy Cindy though

is it a bad album or just a bad pixies album though?

I just found it boooooring. Lacks energy entirely, sounds dead to me. It is not terrible but just offensively meh.

I will agree with this, pixies need to up the energy and bring back the reverb-y vocals. One thing that bothers me about Head Carrier is how clean the vocals sound

anyone else really excited for this? Everywhere At The End of Time was great imo

Why is the riff to Acchi so good?

wait

>featuring sounds from the journey The Caretaker will make after being diagnosed as having early onset dementia

does Leyland Kirby actually have dementia then?

right? I love it so much.

that album is amazing, "back, baby" is incredible

I enjoyed that first installment at first, but subsequent listens weren't as engaging. Feels kind of like a half-hearted retreading of An Empty Bliss. But I'm willing to wait for the entire project to properly judge it.

We've been over this in daily before. No, the character "The Caretaker" will have dementia, which is how Kirby's ending the Caretaker project. I think he's being deliberately confusing there, but in interviews he's been pretty explicit.

oh

I was thinking, thats some real fucking dedication to your art, making a 6 part project chronicling your own descent into mental illness over the course of 3 years.

Still, interesting idea. I wonder if he'll continue making music after The Caretaker is over.

this is some serious shit right here

thanks?

honestly i cant tell if thats positive or negative

>The Anomalies of Artificial Origin -Abominable Putridity

The album is good slam death metal, but the abuse of tempo changes make it sound like a Frankenstein monster. The pig squeal is well made and fitting but as usual I don't really like lyrics I can't understand. Last thing, the album didn't really go anywhere (but I guess it's the genre's fault) but the rythms and the drums are sick.

6.5/10

What will you listen to on halloweeb

Still don't know

Can it be a meme

A spooky mem will do yea

>Spooky meme

Enemite - Wuyuan

Misfits

It's Monster Surfing Time by The Deadly Ones is the best choice obv
Lame choice, barely spooky

It's a meme tho

...do u actually get scared on hallloween??

Nothing scares me bro

I always organize a horror movie marathon tho.
Halloween is the best time of year

is this /daily/core

Sometimes I see old photos of myself and wonder what happened to the handsome young man in which my mind used to reside.

Every inch of you is perfect from the bottom to the top. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

I miss having a chin tho

04/10 - Tycho "Epoch"
Listens: 2
Choice: (they all sound the same, Glider, I guess)

Tycho releases yet another album of excellent background music. It's the kind of stuff that would be fun to see live in a packed venue, and works great while you are doing some long duration task where your concentration can afford some background noise, but it doesn't stand up as a recording otherwise.

That said, Epoch is certainly his best since Dive, and possibly better. I might be able to give a better review if I could remember a single track from any of his albums.

BAD

I hope so

Black Flag - Damaged
Ya, it cool. I wouldn't exactly call it the specimen of diversity though.

Grouper - Dragging A Dead Deer Up A Hill
Eh idk. Grouper has a certain charm to her, I can't really see it here. This sounds less straightforward than Ruins, for instance, I guess more skill has been applied, but it's vapid and diluted, and at least Ruins expresses something more substantial.

he probably will but not under the Caretaker name, maybe as Leyland Kirby or a different pseudonym

my next chart :)

You...think...you...really...know...me..........?

Where can I get the october calendar template from?

For this relisten chart I picked a lot of meme albums I never rated, but listened to already, bc it's time to rate them I guess. 1/4 is recs from daily I am relistening and maybe reevaluating.

Joy Division - Unknown Pleasures
A good thing to introduce you not only to post-punk, but music in general. Although I guess if one managed to avoid this meme, it still can be appreciated, even if you're no novice anymore. I am glad this thing exists, though its charm slowly fades for me over time.

Black Rain - Dark Pool
Industrial techno tends to be quite similar and repetitive. This one isn't. The label proves once again to be the tastemaker in underground dark electronic music, which honestly usually tends to be flooded with lotsa and lotsa weak and unmemorable stuff. The only shortcoming for me were the vocals here. While being p great they don't quite express the necessary ethereal vibe they intended to, I feel like this could be done in a slightly different way. Some tracks were instantly catchy for me (like "Night in New Chiang Saen"), some I only started to dig after several listens ("Xibalba Road Metamorph", "Watering Hole"), but this is definitely one of the best representatives in a p mediocre genre so far.

might listen to some music today

there are two tens and various nines on that chart, have fun

Make sure you get the two disk version of Can Am Des Puig off slsk. It was originally sold as one LP back in the original pressing because a double LP and a hardcover book was too expensive, but it was always meant to be a two part album.

The Youtube version is especially bad, because it's only the first disk and it lacks multiple songs on top of that.

sure

I've been a /daily/ lurker for a while, so I thought I might as well get a trip and do one of these. I'll get to today's album later, so here's a write up of yesterday's:

Michael Pisaro and Taku Sugimoto - 2 Seconds/B Minor/Wave
Onkyo-kei and its related genres are a group of music that I usually don't enjoy, but this album really clicked with me. The varied sounds and instruments that show up on here provide a really interesting musical experience in it's three long form tracks. If you're looking to get into Onkyo, this might be a good gateway album. I will say that the first track is a bit long for my tastes, but the second two definitely make up for it. I especially love the way the music meshes it's way into the actual environment around you, something I feel was intentional. A solid 7/10.

Welcome!

>Yeti
>The Dreaming
>Koko
>Swans Are Dead

Good stuff.

yeah, i'm excited to get to those, this chart is full of essential stuff (so I've heard) that I never got around to

Should /daily/ move to because the general is very important?

>Only now listening to 77 Live
Wowee

But fuck yeah CCTV. Listen to that EP sooner rather than later--it's short and the last song is A+. Also I see the last row is the Drop drone zone
Feel like I recognize your trip from somewhere. Did you trip here for a day or something? Also Onkyo is probably the most hit-or-miss genre for me. I would usually say I don't like the whole of it, but then I'll find one that just really works.
why

nah, this is my first trip i've ever used, but i'm sure turbo-pleb isn't the rarest name of all time

Hype
You got some really good psych rock on there

Ricardo Villalobos - Fizheuer Zieheuer
If this would have been a single track, it would have been p good. Being as long as it is it's almost annoying.

Basic Channel - Quadrant Dub
This is mostly repetition as well, but it got that more or less gradual flow ans soothing atmosphere that makes it tolerable enough.

:{}

welcome aboard then
That's a common and pretty fair complaint levied against Fizheuer, it's very skeletal and long and honestly not for everyone. Even I can get bored of the second track on some listens.

However, I highly recommend, as per my own experience with Basic Channel, relistening to Quadrant Dub later--whether it be a few days or a few months.

alright, back in no time

Mgła - Groza
I'm a big fan of black metal, and I plan to dive into the especially dark shit once it gets cold out, but for now I'm diving into some melodic stuff. I listened to Mgła's latest release when it came out and enjoyed it, but never got into their back catalog until now. Being their debut record, this album lacks a lot of the progression and creativity their latest has, but still has some great sounds. The opener and second track are especially interesting, meshing classic black metal tremolo and heavy chugs together in a really cool way.

This album struggles toward the end, with a lot of motifs repeating themselves with very little distinction. Track three was a genuine struggle, it was just so dull. I will say that the final moments of track four have some really cool, gentle riffs that the tie the album together nicely. However, I can't say that I could see myself revisiting this album, as Mgła's later material is pretty much objectively more interesting and well made.

5/10

Get out while you can

lot of good albums here, paying keen attention to Rodan, Ulver, Pavement and Bardo Pond

If you don't pan the shit out of Brainbombs we can't be friends no more

>Hilary Hahn Plays Bach
The last movement from the second partita was quite good, as well as the third sonata. Because of the length I feel that the ideas have more time to develop and I have an easier time getting into them, whereas most of the stuff from the third partita ends before I can even wrap my puny head around it. Would like to give more listens to this and maybe see it grow on me.

Also if anybody has any nice harp music hit me up. No Joanna Newsom.

On a scale of 1 to pretentious, how bad of an idea is this?

cool:
murmuüre
neu!
wlwh
maybe black antlers
maybe machine gun, it's a little small
eh:
the rest

Honestly, the word pretentious is so misused that it needs deleting from the English language. "Pretentious" is NEVER anything more than a knee-jerk reaction out of insecurity towards the underlying knowledge that you don't understand something. And what a fucking ridiculous conclusion to draw that the artist was simply posturing, just because you're ignorant.
In fact, calling someone pretentious puts the accuser in the position of the arbiter of all taste, which is itself pretentious. Go figure. Anyone who uses that word in sincerity always has far more unearned hubris than the people they're attacking.

good pasta.

>squares on shirts
don't do this
Can, NEU, etc. are better

Good albums and good rating system familia, welcome!

He isn't calling the artists pretentious, he's asking if wearing all these tshirts with "obscure" bands on them is pretentious.

>falling for the meme

Honestly seemed like sth you could write, nerd

Smh do I look like hampus?

nah hampus would say it's pretentious to get a rise out of people
