wow, new vampire weekend is actually really lackluster for me, i love the first two albums by them a lot from front to back but I struggled through the whole modern vampires idk….

daft punk is in a good spot and chance the rapper acid rap is really good too-

im just gonna call it now cause im a big fan… but number 1 has got to be reserved for YEEZUS!

mmm- I havnt felt too good about future DOOM stuff and this makes that feeling more real- the JJ DOOM was good but not up to the standard I feel DOOM has set- seems to spitting way slow in these newer works- lyrics arnt terrible but just doesnt compare to the mmm food stuff or madvillain, you know?

Can someone post the “best” Radiohead tattoo? just to compare…

i miss some girls

yeah i mean, i like burnout, monkey riches and applesauce- but i haven’t played this album in months- I agree that they are capable of MUCH MUCH better.

Bada$$ killed it, such a better track.

 +4Posted on Jan 29th | re: Animal Collective - "Applesauce" Video (8 comments)

aside from maybe rabbit and my girls animal collective videos are always so lame to me-

which is wack because they are my fav experimental group-

i got really excited seeing Noe on this one but really? the whole video is someone eating fruit?

i would have liked it more if the screen was just flashing wild colors with nothing else going on honestly.

the song has too much going on in it to have such a drag of a visual.

Jay-Z is still an amazing rapper.

my thoughts exactly- I thought Genesis right away and Of Montreal.

Just saw Django great flick- I could see this track “not fitting” like Tarantino mentions- but the film aside this song is really great- Glad to see Ocean staying consistent with being awesome.

this song is fucking boring.

honestly i liked their album and mixtapes, but these guys came off as not caring and shitty to me from the start- i saw them a few times and each set was as poor as the last- they just just seemed totally not in it- out of practice- and sloppy- made me not really care about them as much as other up and coming rap acts and the news of this break up is funny if anything- ends up being a big whatever…

yeah everything from this album has fallen short for me- totally obsessed with kanye too- its not a solo album so i can understand the wackness to a degree- but shit- anything with 2 chainz on it more than once just pushes me away- we’ll have to wait til 2013/14 for some real new shit from kanye…

didnt see the correction earlier- dont hate

 +1Posted on Sep 2nd, 2012 | re: The 10 Best Animal Collective Songs (191 comments)

correction in the chores blerb- panda is def lead vocalist avey doesnt do much of the singing on that track, chores is a panda jam- he did it solo a lot and all that- just sayin’

i have a friend who thought deakin sang on the whole new centipede hz… people confuse who’s singing in this band all the time but i think it’s pretty easy to tell if youre an avid listener

i think this list needed kids on holiday

i only listen to maybe 3 groups on this list- but the rest of it isnt close to the worst bands out there.

 -1Posted on Aug 10th, 2012 | re: New Beck Album Song Reader Only Available As Sheet Music (150 comments)

i’m seeing problems with this release.
the point of putting out a record is so people can hear it. not everyone is a talented musician.
as far as the people who can read and play the music, a cover of a song doesnt do much unless you know what it is your covering. just seems pointless to release without the audio.
i do love intricate album art and liner notes though, so i give 2 thumbs up on that level, it looks awesome, i want to have it, but i also want to hear it.

will he play it live on tour? hope so.

 -1Posted on Aug 3rd, 2012 | re: Grizzly Bear - "Yet Again" (145 comments)

i liked how airy a lot of yellow house was-
lots of just creepy rests and what not-
just slowed down and sad sounding with these big bursting riffs…

didnt care for veckamist (or however you spell it) and this track is just kind of whatever- theres no wow moment no ooooo listen to that moment except for the outro of the song that gets kind of crazy.

whatever, grizzly bears good im sure the cd wont be terrible.

to all the AC comments- todays supernatural is much more interesting and rewarding than this track here. just got a lot more going on with an over all stand out vocal line and it just makes me anxious with all of its swirly-ness.

i dont know- who cares

Snarky Opinion: saw them open for dirty p recently- bored me restless- the rhythms were alright but didnt coax me into buying a cd or downloading anyhting.

but nobody asked me, so i guess im done here

this is hysterical

 +1Posted on Jun 21st, 2012 | re: Animal Collective Unveil Centipede Hz Cover (25 comments)

covers not bad- just as wild as the other promotional stuff they been using for this album- ugly, yes- but i think the sounds on this will make sense with the art- im sure it will be a wonderfully absurd release

 0Posted on Jun 21st, 2012 | re: Watch Dirty Projectors On Fallon (9 comments)

i really hope swing lo as a whole is just as great as bitte and rise above… im really not into trigger or dance for you- those 2 tracks just dont bring the ultra intense vocal arrangements or guitar work like a lot of the songs on the other albums- im excited either way- just saying these 2 previews fall short for me- and i liked angel so i might be stubborn seeing as shes absent from this album
