its good….much more downbeat than the last two…not as good as VW
this is their best yet…impressive on every level
Three Things:
1) Halcyon Digest is by far their worst album
2) The title track is the worst track on this record
3) I dig the record, they sound exciting again…its a super dirty recording
it reminded me of the first time i heard kid a…i felt stoned without the drugs…i still feel stoned from this one…it sounds like the end of the world…crazy weird stuff…i dig more each time i hear it
unfortunately have to agree this is their weakest record to date which is unfortunate…sacrilege and under the earth are the highlights here. alot of potential that just doesn’t materialize in the other songs….the throw back songs, mosquito and area 52 are pretty rough…some cringing
funniest album of the year….hahaha
super weak…i mean for real…everyone here is being way too kind
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
who was the last great pop star? lennon?
this is simply the evolution of the industry. lets be honest…everyone wants to be a musician or an actor or an artist, and still have stability and a house and kids and a family and healthcare…but its just not in the cards. you either move to LA or pursue your dreams or you don’t. its the way of the world that not everyone gets what they want. if you choose the route of risk, then you may end up poor and disappointed (hopefully the art fulfills you). If you choose the less riskier route, the art becomes a passion that is similar to a second job, not something you count on to live by but something that fulfills your life.
the music industry and technology are the way they are…things have changed, and you have to adapt or die, there’s no point in fighting it. the amount of music being made and released is growing exponentially every year, not everyone is going to pay for it or listen to all of it. but if you can get it for free you’re going to listen to alot more of it, and i think thats a trend everyone is seeing.
seriously though, you gotta get real, not everyone is kurt cobain, not everyone is in grizzly bear…if you’re talented, dedicated, lucky and are in the right place at the right time, maybe the stars will shine on you, but not everyone deserves to be able to live the dream life off of selective occupations that many people would like to do. people have to be realistic
“my pussy tastes like pepsi cola”….nuff said
first half is the best stuff they’ve done…second half aside from gun shy gets a little slow / plodding / boring
grizzly bear went radiohead/\/\/\/\/\/\/\yay
fuckyes
yup..dead on right
not nearly as good as what has come before…i would say more annoying than enjoyable
well they’ve done it…they’ve successfully become the most annoying they’ve ever been
styld by stereogum..featuring chris chu from pop etc
…jaan wenner’s dying words
ha…hope this shit is totally busted..just like her career. mia is such a boring little whiny phony…good riddance
both of the new tracks are weak….don’t do anything more or better than the first album highlights…hoping there’s a serious arc to this record to make it worth what all you critics are jerking about.
dead on! this one is the real deal
absolutely terrible….AC repped him…he’s the hipsters new pants
no you were dead on right…this is truly awful…laughably awful…tooey gets the last laugh
the panda bear song is the worst on the album…its totally out of place and somehow his vocals ruin what could have been a great track….he’s singing wayyyyy too on the beat…annoying…
