SYRFox · 01.05.2009, 04:35 PM

4.5/5 on tiny mix tapes

it's getting slagged off all over the internet, you multi-lingual posters. maybe the world finally came to realise that music with no heart or soul is a waste of time.

Rob Instigator · 01.05.2009, 05:02 PM

hahahahah!!!!!! That is EXACTLY IT!

That is what was missing from goddamn strawberry jam and shit! The music has no heart nor soul. it is a goddamned fucking clinical etude in indie rockin'.

I'd rather listen to Motorhead

They might be giants.

That's some Maryland love right thar.

i think that's the only thing i will like about this album. my computer is still broke so i can't dl it and i doubt i would dl ac anyway. there's no way in hell i would ever buy an ac album, so i will most likely never hear this.

for the record i don't like ac except for one song off "feels". i can't even fake liking them to girls on dates.

say what you will, but the part in bold is just wrong... i don't see how you could know more about them than i do... but if you do, how did you find out they have no heart?

01.05.2009, 05:35 PM

by listening to them? maybe, you know, like, maybe. Rob likes some awful shit, mind.

Rob Instigator · 01.05.2009, 05:36 PM

it is a FEELING, just like laughter.
and just as valid.

animal collective albums sound soulless. they do not make my blood pump. they do not give me that musical rush i seek.

ridiculous thing to say.

you can't cringe, you're a robot.

Rob Instigator · 01.05.2009, 05:37 PM

it is all personal taste anyways.

I just do not hear the appeal that makes everyone lick the cockcheese from AC's foreskin.

you haven't even listened to it and you get all defensive? you're not a robot, you're just lame. i seem to remember you also like to keep up with what's cool with the kids these days, right? hmm...

acousticrock87 · 01.05.2009, 05:43 PM

As much as I disagree with Rob on this particular album, he's right. Music evokes a feeling, and if it doesn't sound right to you, it just doesn't. No big deal.

Rob Instigator · 01.05.2009, 05:47 PM

NO BIG DEAL. exactly

If you love AC then love them. I love sonic youth and 95% of the people in my life cannot figure out why. doesn;t bother me.

I love sarramkrop and the two Johns from They Might Be Giants are AGHAST!

and yeah, i mean if it's cool it must be good right? nice analysis man!!

ANYWAY I CAN'T WAIT TO LISTEN TO THIS!

you listen to a record just to be contrary? what are you, a paedo or something?

AC play toy-sounding music. I can see how they appeal to you.

I used to feel the exact same way about them. After giving them a lot of chances, though, melodies that came across as annoying to me the first few times suddenly seemed welcome and I found their music to have some pretty interesting texture to it. Weird thing. It's very rare that I give a band I despise a lot of chances either, but it worked with Beefheart, so I guess good things happen sometimes.

I can definitely understand where yr coming from, though. Even if I like them now, a lot of their stuff indeed does lack soul.

atsonicpark · 01.06.2009, 12:57 AM

Yeah, but Captain Beefheart and his Magic Band are the greatest band of all time. So, I could see giving them infinite number of chances... but AC? I dunno. I like them, but really, they're just a melodically-pleasing pop band with experimental structures and production. Not really that big of a deal. I wouldn't give em a bunch of chances, life's too short; you can be listening to OUR BROTHER THE NATIVE instead...
