I dare anyone to listen to the whole track. Are people for real. Have I gone insane?! what the fuck man


Not her best song. Most of her lyrics are about depression, addiction, and escapism. Very personal. Lyrics about partying are really about self hatred.

Here's an example of some weirdness, sonic wise

This is one of my faves:

It sounds like auto tuned vocals and studio trickery. I had to turn both off after a few seconds, right before the inevitable avalanche of deep depression - brought on the way only pop music can - kicked in.

A vocal lower in the mix is always more pleasing. When treat as an intrument, even better. For example mbv. I find a foreign language vocal can be rewarding too as you have no choice but to treat the voice as another melody in the mix. Unless of course the vocalist is channeling Satan himself.

Agreed

Was it pink diamond? Sounds like a death grips joint with a pop hook?
I dig it.

She’s cool, Kim’s cool, whatever

Fucking hell I thought they had damn near dropped off the face of the earth. Their last album which was all of six(?) years ago had one of my favourite openers if heard in a long time. Wonder what's taken them so long to do more stuff?

Pete Nolan and his family should release album too, hahaha....I mean from what I seen lately on his Insta..

Well look who resurrected. ;):)

I have a list of about 27 kawazillion "new/most anticipated albums" that I gotta post here, but with all the SY activity on Dime I'll most likely get around to doing that in 2021.

h8kurdt 06.30.2020 12:22 PM

New Pigs pigs pigs pigs pigs pigs pigs album is making me cook. Highly recommended.

Anyone heard the new deerhoof album?

I already like it, as one tune is called "Ry Cooder". :)

Shepherd In A Sheepskin Vest is a very good album, but it's my least favorite of all the records he's released under his own name. The reason may not be entirely musical, though - the repeated references to a life with a wife and kid are something I can admire but not relate to.
