First Mudhoney album i've ever heard, I had imagined they would be like Dinosaur Jr (who i've never liked at all) but this is alot better.

Remurdered is a great track, but IMO there's too many tunes on Rave Tapesthat are not so good, with more keyboards/synths/electronics/whatever than guitar driven songs. But hey, if you prefer Mudhoney over Dinosaur Jr. our tastes are not the same, so you might like Rave Tapes more than I do :-)

Oh and I just listened to this:

When I heard the album when it was available for stream, it jumped out at me. I really didn't have any expectation with a new Mogwai album, but this one surprised me.

To my ears, 'Rave Tapes' is almost like a pop album. Parts of it have the aroma of, 'Come On Die Young.' My last Mogwai purchase was, 'Mr. Beast.' That was also the last time I saw them live. I will be seeing this tour when they play Houston in April.

In the future, I sure would like to see Mogwai be part of the, 'In The Fishtank' series. Maybe partnered with someone like, M83 or a Lćtitia Sadier.

Live they were still great, even the new songs. Evidence #1 and #2
:D

My girlfriend just bought that, I liked the songs but the production felt a tad bit overdone. Curious to know what your take on it is though

Got this CD for a fucking DOLLAR from ebay auction, some Lutheran charity had it for auction. a DOLLAR! I have been looking for this for a long time!

an evening with viewtiful 03.26.2014 09:46 PM

Those 4.99/7.99 CD shelves at Barnes and Noble are pretty choice. I had to put a lot up (I also got the Warriors for $4.99 on DVD)

I agree, the guitars and drums that are treated to sound "synthetically" can sound a bit forced. I much prefer Strange Mercy's production.

It's getting a lot of buzz though. There's a dope little Weezy verse on one track. That much I know. But is this an album for the good kid mAAd city/Yeezus era, or is it another tired Dj Mustard banger record?

If this were two years ago, and neither of those albums had come out, this album would be totally uninteresting and probably not really worth listening to.
But with a new bar set for major releases, YG set his aims a bit higher where say... Schoolboy really didn't. While the MC'ing isn't terribly innovative or even that interesting, the album manages to hold a concept very well throughout which makes it a compelling listen. The beats slap, but there's a sonic template that sort of allows the album to move between tracks pretty smoothly.
It's not a general hip-hop masterpiece by any means, but it's definitely gonna be YG's masterpiece. If you like west coast rap, you really can't go wrong with this, just don't expect any real innovation.

Think BAD Kidd MaaD City.
