Death Grips

IVE SEEN FOOTAGE

>The only song I dont like off this thing is hustle bones

You mean lost boys

I gave Money store a 1/5 on RTM

death grips basically initiated the whole post-ironic music scene. they are simultaneously brilliant and just plain shit. that 100 gecs band is rooted in the same ethos.

>Like that Fiona apple thing Ive seen being spammed. No way in hell im listening to that. I have some pride
you are a sheep in that you, like every other pseudo intellectual teenager, think that you are somehow more intelligent than other people because you aren't part of the 'groupthink.' you think that not having the same opinions as the majority of group x (in this case Yas Forums) that your individuality is less questionable. you are unique. "I dont listen to what those guys say, i make up my OWN opinions." the only way to not be a sheep is to simply make peace with and acknowledge other's opinions on a wider scale. It is certainly okay to listen to a fucking fiona apple record despite it being talked about by a vocal minority on twitter. you can listen to it with something called context. you can listen to swans despite what you think about their listener base. they're a particularly funny one, in that everyone thinks that the average swans fan is a 20 something with a moustache and ironic tattoos, but that perception comes from image macros people see online, so they just blindly believe it. anyway a smart person can analyze something in multitudinous ways.

by adhering to the same mental gymnastics that 90% of people under the age of 17 do, you are a sheep.

Also Im 21 get fucked. I will happily admit my bass teacher and my dad influenced my music taste greatly. Also tattoos are degerate

i'm far from a boomer you massive retard. have some pasta
>“Hipster” is a term co-opted for use as a meaningless pejorative in order to vaguely call someone else’s authenticity into question and, by extension, claim authenticity for yourself.

>It serves no conversational function and imparts no information, save for indicating the opinions and preferences of the speaker.

>Meanwhile, a market myth has sprung up around the term, as well as a cultural bogeyman consisting of elusive white 20-somethings who wear certain clothes (but no one will agree on what), listen to certain music (no one can agree on this either), and act a certain way (you’ve probably sensed the pattern on your own). One may be quick to coin such interests and garb as "black-rimmed glasses, flannel, and indie music," however said mainstream-avoiding "hipsters" will logically turn down abiding to such a popular consensus, voiding the interpretation null.

>You can’t define what “that kind of behavior or fashion or lifestyle” actually is, nor will you ever be able to. That’s because you don’t use “hipster” to describe an actual group of people, but to describe a fictional stereotype that is an outlet for literally anything that annoys you.

>The twist, of course, is that if it weren’t for your own insecurities, nothing that a “hipster” could do or wear would ever affect you emotionally. But you are insecure about your own authenticity - “Do I wear what I wear because I want to? Do I listen to my music because I truly like it? I’m certainly not like those filthy hipsters!” - so you project those feelings.

>Suffice it to say, no one self-identifies as a hipster; the term is always applied to an Other, to separate the authentic Us from the inauthentic, “ironic” Them.

>tl;dr: if you believe hipsters exist, you are a plebeian.

you are a sheep because if you actually weren't so worried about your likes comparatively to others you then you wouldn't feel the need to not listen to an album wanting to call it crap, if you were genuine about it you would check it out (or not but then don't make assumptions its bad because muh pitchfork) and then like it or not like it for yourself. Thats what i did and i didn't really like it cause thats what happens when you form opinions for yourself

Fixed it an yes true

>It serves no conversational function and imparts no information, save for indicating the opinions and preferences of the speaker.
Its function is to insult you and your preferences. Youre part of a group that claims to be freethinkers but functions with as much dogma as a southern baptist church

Look at fantano hes the thing that is decribed here and so are you Im sure. Youre out of work from your record store job rn

thats the best track faggot. worst one is the fever

I use the information about who likes an album and what Ive heard about to guess what it is before Ive heard about it. And yeah I want to call it crap because its funny to annoy Fantano drones and people who read pitchfork.
And to deny that social status and ques don't play into music is nuts. The bebop movement. mods, rockers, punk, and modern day hip hop all have a lot of distinct fashion sensibilities

>actually responding to pasta
how did i know you would

I thought it was a cringe pasta. Was gonna break down the entire thing but got bored half way through

After listening to it again is there any depth to this thing besides yelling funny things like IM IN YOUR AREA in a catchy way and being intense?

Depth in an album comes from how well the album’s concept (or lack thereof, still a concept in itself) is fleshed out in a totally whole way. It needs to have a sense of identity and the identity it tries to have needs to be compelling and not uninteresting

Obviously

explain

the band is masterminded by Zach Hill, a math rock virtuoso. the rapping is less than 1% of the total music. listen to it as a whole. it's the instrumentals and composition overall that make it interesting and enjoyable

I also hated this album upon my first listen but I ended up suddenly loving it when I listened again
a few days later. Had the same experience with 100 gecs. Creative new acts just sometimes take multiple listens to comprehend

Death Grips is unironically good tho. See 100 gecs is just a gimmicky band shilled on here by trannies. You fell for the meme lmao.

death grips are literally one of the first artists to embody infinite depth

Death Grips and 100 gecs are both unironically very good. There's a lot of overlap between DG and 100 gecs fans for a reason. Also, 100 gecs themselves are huge DG fans.

You fell for the anti-tranny meme, user

Also, I posted both and

is Hacker the most reddit song from DG?

Absolute best hook on the fucking album you turbopleb
