this fan review and the urb cover story have made me so excited for this album. 'aquemini' was my favorite album of 1998 and i believe 'stankonia' was my favorite of 2000 (maybe it was radiohead). before you post just read the review. i marvel at outkast. every album they put out is so daring and inventive, and yet does something most electronica envelope-pushers fail to do (exception being prefuse 73): they make it fun and an ENJOYABLE listen as well. |

what's the name of the track with the electro beat? i dunno, i only heard 20 seconds of it, but it was quite good. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ive heard it. i think i like speakerboxxx more, but andres side is definitely worth a listen. wouldnt be my album of the year (dont think i could list one if i tried) but its definitely one worth recognition/a listen for the facts you just said. |

has clips of the new songs apparently, but i'm waiting to hear the albums in whole next week. i've already heard big boi's "flip flop rock" which is very electro, and dre's "she lives in my lap". |

Outkast are cool and all... but if ATCQ puts out a good album... damn |

||||||||
|
|

|
|
draft or HTTT for me unless bjork releases something by dec 31st |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'm very interested in this. Especially since there's electro influences... and, well, because it's OutKast. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
thank you for not making a crap, irrelevant comment outkast have been doing electro for a while now (1996).. i think they're very interested in it, but not in following it exclusively (still mostly organic and live). i think they share more than a little in common with fellow atlanta native scott herren. |
||||||||
|

|
|
draft 7.30 is cool, httt isnt my fave .. did anyone here also enjoy reqs car paint scheme? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Hehe.. They continue to put out interesting and refreshing stuff. In intereviews, they seem to have pretty wide tastes in music (I think in one, they mentioned enjoying Kraftwerk), and I think that's why a lot of their music has more staying power. Quality. I love old electro funk stuff. Bambaataa, Newcleus, etc.. My friend and I were playing his VERY old tape of Hancock's "Sound System" the other day, actually. |
||||||||
|

|
|
Buck 65 - Tonky Honkin' Blues As the song title suggests, wicked AND weird. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yea they actually made an update of "trans-europe express" called "trans DF express" on the dungeon family album kraftwerk is one of their least eclectic influences.. they namecheck some diverse and obscure stuff.. they're really deep into music and it shows on their albums btw newcleus rock! i love "jam on it" especially. i think that track would blow some people's minds on here, especially if they knew when it was released. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Jam on It is great. The 8 minute version is way better than the album version though, just because it's longer. "Jam on Revenge", "Make It Live", and "Let's Jam" are all good, too. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
dj shadow sampled "let's jam" for the unkle track "cellestial annhiliation" |

Hee hee, how silly and cheese filled. |

i'm mostly interested in hearing dre's album |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
most looking forward to hearing empty the bones of you, but draft 7.30 is album of the year for me so far that i can remember. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Electronic album of the year: Autechre - Draft 7.30 Rock album of the year: Do Make Say Think - Winter Hymn Country Hymn Secret Hymn Biggest disappointment of the year (maybe ever) Radiohead - Hail to the Theif. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
my biggest disappoints so far this year have been dead prez, underworld soundtrack, 50 cent, and massive attack |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Lucky year for me. Very few disappointments. Lots of great stuff. The new Silver Mt. Zion is up there for album of the year too, as is the new Mogwai. The new Massive Attack is so so, but not to the point that I'm disappointed. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Draft 7.30 is the only one i can think of from this year. Aesop Rock's upcoming album Bazooka Tooth will be released in 3 days. i'll chec on that & see if it qualifies as AOTY |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i was only disappointed because mezzanine is in my top 10 favorite albums.. 100th window is a great album, it's just a letdown for them there's still some good stuff coming out this year, i mean .. this week and october are gonna be mega |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
A Silver Mt. Zion - fuck draft, there's my album of the year. thank you mr gummo avatar :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah, Mezzanine is a gem. I'm actually not looking forward to too much of the stuff coming out. I'm in discovery mode thought lately (hail slsk!!!) so I'll probably be picking up a lot of stuff that's been released in the last couple of years. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Haha! Good man, ds9mm! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Have you seen massive attack play this year? The visuals are nice but the music is soooooo boring! 3D was a shit graffiti artist anyway, he's a pushy arrogant twat that has forced the other creative people away. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i've never seen massive attack live except downloaded video clips. don't they just sing along while touring musicians perform their music? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Massive attack will get worse and worse. 3D is at the helm now. From now on it's going to get really shit. that's what I think |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

i agree with Atgmartin's disappointment point entirely... Radiohead's 'electronic' attempts seem pretty annoying to me. as for electronic albums then i have to say Draft 7.30. among rock albums so far my vote goes to Type O Negative - 'Life Is Killing Me'... i enjoy it a lot, may be because this summer i was really longing to hear something melodic, simple, easy and different from a lot of the electronic stuff i've been listening, and i found it with this album. but there are still a few releases mentioned here that i haven't heard yet, so i may discover some more worthy stuff. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
For pop / rock, this album is hard to beat - catchy as fuck! I have very high hopes for the upcoming Snares and Books albums. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

i'm very currious about this album. i never have been able to exactly 'get into' outkast though. i don't know why either, i agree with just about every review i read, and when i listen to an album i rarely hear anything i don't like. but, for some reason i just don't ever really seem to get excited over any of their songs. out of curriosity; what exactly is the justification for splitting it basically into two solo albums under the outkast name? i've read that there's no bad blood between them, but it's a little wierd to have so little colaboration on a 'team' effort like this isn't it? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well did you read the review? they're taking two totally separate musical directions the urb interview sheds some light on this.. andre's album is music he's been writing, mostly on guitar, piano, and keyboard, that hasn't fit in with the outkast style. he says he's bored with hip-hop. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i read the initial post in that link. and it seemed like a pretty descent short review of each individual track. i was just a little currious about the motivation behind the album as a whole, and being on my 56k here at home puts a damper on my surfing around the web looking for reviews habit. if the urb's review is online i'll prolly check it on monday. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it's a cover story interview.. they haven't printed a review yet but i might not have the latest issue.. you can probably read it at the newsstand still |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I have both Aquemini & Stankonia, they are quite different but both are amazing, I love there stuff, very diverse & they dont confine themselves stylistically at all. Saying that though, I listened to that new track (the dancey one) & it was kinda naff imo |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, that's what i was looking for. and a newsstand in franklin north carolina? that shit is still ten or fifteen years down the road. :) we've got four grocery stores... but i doubt they'll have urb on their shelf. you think southern living will run a feature on the new outkast joint? |

it had to be you - rod stewart |

Massive attack have always been sooooooo boring imo...... apart from maybe uno tune 8/ |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
what's this about tribe? are they back together? the love movement letdown, followed by their split, followed by their equally dissapointing solos was very symbolic of the death of my innocence, and youth. trully a very sad turn of events. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
titsworth, on your news page, under robert smith, i am confused as to why you would omit the possibility of a robert smith/blink182 collaboration. i am amazed you would try to keep something like this away from us..... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
because when i linked that page it had different info on it, and also because that's for blink 182's album, not his epohs, tribe have secretly been recording for a year or two now.. a new song will be on the violator 3 compilation due december 9 (my birthday), and a new album next year |

WINTER IN THE BELLY OF A SNAKE? My choice. Sorry wrong messageboard. |

in one of my typical drunken rants of a couple of years ago i likened tribe to simon and garfunkel, and i still stand by that comparison. S&G were never really innovators, but they very much perfected their own style, and there's an undeniable staying power to what they did. they were never really overly political in their messages, but the music they made was very representative of the time in which it was made. and, their individual styles, and strongpoints were very different, yet the sum of their two parts created something greater. i think tribe did very much the same for hip-hop. all of their releases pre-LM were damn near flawless in the genre. they never really pushed any technological or stylistic boundaries, yet everything they released was hip-hop perfection. |
