mf Doom, doomsday, yes! akufen, skidoos, YES!!!! the bass line is so fucking low in that, damn we share a lot of likes :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
steinbolt vs tetra sync? NO CONTEST, SIR! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
polynomial? sry i can't say, i wasn't into this music when that came out : / :( |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Skidoos feels like getting out of a swimming pool on a hot night and drinking a cold frosty one. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
neither was i, but when i first heard it i was amazed. and steinbolt owns tetra sync. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
district line 2 muth f er, imo hehe |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
tetra sync is a masterpiece, im fond of steinbolt, but no where on the level of tetra.... Tetra is to Ultravisitor as Mt Saint Michaels is to DrukQs in my opinion. skidoos, from akufen, is certainly amazing on the bass levels....especially right when it hits in :D : D:D |

I was never crazy about St. Michael's; Vordhosbn fulfills that purpse for me on drugUse |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
agreed msm... sounds dated, and whats up with that chick |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
vordhosbn, ziggo, besknu |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I feel overall Mt Saint Michaels is the top track,. But the horns at the end of VordhosbN certainly are my most fav. part on the whole album....I just feel altogether Mt. S. Mich. is the truest track on the album, overall. the horns at the end of vordhosbn are out of this world.... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I love the whole thing. There is a constant tension; voices in odd ranges, melodies twitching about; everything supremely crafted and paced, and an overall structure to boot. The fact that his brain could envision a way to bind such diametrically opposing samples is rather intimidating. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well, if we're talkin drukqs, theres no question in my mind that Mt Saint Michaels is the best track on the album. besides petatil cx htdui, but the two aren't exactly comparable. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
"take time"!? are you insane?!? I really dislike that track. I hate that melody they're singing it in. I did have it simply with the first track. it almost made me puke and cry at the same time. which isn't always good but in this case it was. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
"velouria"!? are you insane?!? well, okay, it is a great track.. but something like "gigantic" or "broken face" must hit in more on first listen. I guess you heard "bossanova" earlier than the other albums. if not - you are truly insane. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
mt sait michael, is my least fav off of drukqs, i like the ending but only because if you turn it up loud enough, its like being on a cool drug, but it sounds dated. afx picked this one up dusted it off, remixed it, stuck on the cool ending, and put it on the album. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
in your opinion whats the pixies best? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
uh no, i actually GASP SHOCK like that track more than the ones you mentioned. i heard the albums in the order they came out. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the whole of "surfer rosa" + the whole of "come on pilgrim". |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
all over the world = pixies epic |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
insane. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
deep breath...bossanova is their best album. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
HA HA insane!!!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
from surfer i am a big oh my golly fan, and from come on, levitate me |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i have to agree |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
its got better music on it than the others, surfer is raw and powerful but that wears off, doolittle ehh too poppy, trompe is good but missing something, bossanova has it all, its the raw, and poppy, and has something else, its called pixies magic. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
surfer rosa is a dated one, raw, but they've made much much better music since. sure, its got gigantic, river euphrates, where is my mind, two of which were rerecorded to much better effect. its just a warm up for doolittle, which is just a warm up for when they actually got good with bossanova. runs from thread. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
bossanova is an overproduced '80s-sounding album that lacks all of the frenetic energy from both "surfer rosa" and "doolittle". and the lyrics start to go shit. it's the pixies pop-album. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i love the bossanova, i find something new on it everytime i listen to it |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
"bossanova" is FAR, so very VERY FAR from raw. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, it is far from raw, but its melodic, has better overall songs, and the band has improved massively as musicians. plus its got the happening, which is the best song they've done. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
80s? wheres the synth pop stuff, over produced?? just because they stopped sounding like a garage band doent mean its overproduced. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Are you insane? It's the most thematically coherent song on the album - the vocal samples are perfect, I love the take time / tick tock pun, I love the contrast between the life affirmingness of the song and the bleak Ecclesiastes quotes. But you do not care for sweet fruit unless it contains worms and razors. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it does not have better overall songs. it has a few really great ones and a few really mediocre ones - there may have been mediocre songs on previous albums, but not in this quantity. and I hate "the happening". boring, endless song!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
listen to the first track, obviously not as raw as the others but its got some to give |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what the fuck do I care about how "thematically coherent" songs are? I do not sit around listening to music, thinking to myself "oh wow, this song has really got it's themes right..".. the melody is annoying, therefore I can't listen to it! so keep your preconceptions of me for another day, Kevin, thankyouverymuch! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
your opinion is wrong. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no yours is! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
all their albums are good, there really is no BEST out of them, but seriously bossanova, their best, it scientifically proven. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
NO, YOURS IS! and i'm telling mom! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
But thematic coherence creates art that lasts and has depth. It's like load-bearing infrastructure for meaning. That's why Blade Runner is a classic - it takes two ideas - perception and self - and explores them and their relationship. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
where did Blade Runner suddenly come from in a discussion about music? I really don't care about all of that bullshit, Kevin. either I like it or I don't, I don't really care if it's going to be relevant to the generations to come after me. I like something on my own merits, because of what I have seen/heard/experienced up til then, because of how I feel that day, not because of some kind of system I have created in my head, using formulas like "thematic coherence = art that lasts and has depth". |
