I don't give a fuck what you think of the album, picrel is proof that /mu/ is dead. An actual indie rock album that has gotten hype and traction not only from music writers but from actual important musicians>Nick Cave>Lorde>Hayley Williams>Billy CorganAn album with this kind of sound that had managed to reach this far is irrefutable proof that /mu/ is dead. Something with this kind of buzz, during the time when /mu/ was alive, would have 9 of the worst threads you've ever seen at a time. This probably speaks deeper to how dead popular music has been, too, but especially /mu/. Any oldfags remember when Sunbather came out? There were 20 threads every twelve hours. Things were better before you got here, and I'm sorry you never got to experience that.
>>128906081fuck off paid shill
>>128906091You wish paid shills were still coming here for any other reason than to post slurs to distract from corporate interest stealing more of your money.
Album is just so shit, -and the hype so obviously manufactured-, that no one with taste wants to talk about this shit. Even their covers are massive pieces of trash with no sense of aesthetics. SNL moment? Sus, very sus. Singer going from 10 people shows to stadiums in 3 years? Sus, very sus.
>>128906098exactly what a shill would say. i know your shift, i know your hours. you guys are not hiding
>>128906081The reason this site was 'better' back in the day is that most of us were teenagers with time on our hands to indulge our obsessions. We had the energy to spend hours here and the enthusiasm and the edge to make it fun. Now we're old and tired, most of the oldfags have left after the election tourists, and this place became a shell of what it used to be. So what? Things come to an end. Face it.
>>128906081New York trust fund band
>>128906142i left for 8 months and came back and it’s worse, then took another 6 months off and it’s so much worse. the last couple years are a fast slide into pure shill zoomer retardation with the modt out of touch people. i figure it’s been left to random ass third worlders only and there’s like 12 steady posters from the old days. it’s over. i checked in again and this is even worse than last time. nothing redeeming at all. time to pack it up and stay away for good.
>>128906142Or maybe the album is just trash
>>128906186Unironically. I got my comment wiped from RYM just because I said "this band sucks and their covers are bad". Literal 1984 with these industry plants.
>>128906208because rym is part of a pr campaign package that gets you a fantano review and a million fake reviews and ratings. they have to guarantee you positivity when you buy the big time package. some artists do it for one album and vanish, think snail mail. it costs $50k for the smallest package.
>>128906235I would be inclined to believe this without proof, because of muh intuition. Their album gets like 500% the amount of comments every other album gets, and any negative comment gets instawiped or review bombed to shit in a few minutes. We might live in a dystopia.
>>128906235snail mail has a second album you fucking retard
>>128906195>random ass third worldersIf you were around at the time of mutracker and /mu/tant radio you'd know that a lot of contributors were from Brazil, Argentina and Mexico
>>128906268i’m not making it up. i know a few artists who have looked at the firm that handles it. it’s always been like this. you pay to play. that’s how they gatekeep. you’re going to be in debt to the publisher from the jump. doing it now is way more obvious than the radio days with the rolling stone article. you pay for that stuff. same with film. oscar consideration is a pr form lobbying on your behalf when you pay them, or no dice.
>>128906289you fucking retard, she didn’t pay for the shill package on her second album. that’s was my point. that’s why it wasn’t mercilessly shilled
a generational talent who's here to stay
>>128906298the point is that the ratio is higher. there’s less americans and brits here than there used to be, driving the discussion on new music. primarily it’s indian shills making coompop threads and talking to themselves for hours, then all at once stopping, then picking up again
>>128906299Sounds logical desu.>>128906321Generational hack. Bro sounds like a goat every time he opens that mouth.
>>128906081You're a shallow bitch. Hype/buzz doesn't mean shit, and this album is the perfect example of that. Even in its dead state, /mu/ talks way too much about this shit. It's not even worth attention. People release mediocre albums all the time.
>>128906325>indian shills making coompop threadsinteresting "shilling" strategy, making coomer threads on 4chan
>>128906359it’s akin to ‘you have to raise x dollars to wuify for the debate stage with national tv buuuuut we’ll gladly take any amount of money if you want to run ads’ and thus they make debatr have more prestige, it’s like buying a fancy steak with your money. awards are effectively bought by lobbies. roles are cast that way often. it’s $$$ all the way. that’s the business. if you want to get no reviews and hook into some streaming from the algo or touring your ass off or maybe via video or just word of mouth, they’ll just steal your style and make a famous doppleganger of you if you ever start to get big, and hijack your success. or they’ll even just steal your whole career for one rihanna album phase / outfits. seen it happen many times to little brooklyn artists who get mini big and go meet their idol and legit have their style ripped and get nothing for it and end up looking bitter for trying to tell people what happened. it’s the most disgusting business. entertainment. sleazy vipers everywhere you turn. you basically have to be a sociopath or psycho to even want to be recognized and enslaved to the label debt system
>>128906081Retards on this board have made the term "industry plant" meaningless by using it for literally every artist but Geese is one of the most obvious examples, so I can see why contrarian-leaning 4channers would ignore this shit. That said you're right about this board being out of touch but I don't think it's the best example.
>>128906081>why aren’t you catching on and helping make threads to do the shilling for us like you used to? the captcha is filtering our bots. oh we’ll blame it on you
>>128906081I like Geese, but this was by far their weakest album imo. 100% agreed that /mu/ is absolutely, unquestionably fucking dead though. The vast majority of retards on here now are literal drooling, antisocial, weirdo /pol/fags babbling about conspiracies and finding excuses to be mad at every little meaningless thing. Feels like I'm at a fucking mental asylum when I read this shit.And I remember when Sunbather came out, it was controversial but you didn't feel like you'd get screamed at and ganged up on if you liked it. There was definitely a healthy balance of differing viewpoints, and at least the anons shit talking it did so in a sane, and sometimes funny manner.Seems like maybe only 10% of the users here now are optimistic about any new music in general, and an extremely vocal percentage exists just to attack them and shut down any possibility of worthwhile discussion.
>>128906142All the good /mu/ posters were never younger than 18 when /mu/ was around
>>128906081are you my brother? he loves this album and is an /mu/ oldfag
3D country was much better and thats why this album was unexciting
>actual important musicians>lordelol
>>128906081Wow only 1 person that matters there:Hayley Williamsalso /mu/ is not dead we are just edgy and angry all the time its just how we are as a collective conciousness
the new record had very little memorable guitar, at least 3D country rocked
>>128907030Or keys...I love nothin more than keys+guitar harmony it just takes me to different dream worlds
>>128906999Corgan made 1979 one of the most nostalgic sounding songs of all time and Siamese Dream is simultaneously one of the greatest 90s alt. albums while sounding completely unique and original, the only grungy guy that managed to take a queue from shoegaze and make his distortion thick as hell
>>128906081boards been dead for years mate
>>128907124Oasis = Biblical m8
Behold: the redpill you cannot swallow/mu/ has never been about genuine discussion of music, it has always been a zoo, obsessed with lowbrow pop culture and its "music". Ever since its launch. You have never in your life listened to good music. You don't understand what good music even means. /mu/ is made up of imbecilic masses no different from average mongrel at the club, difference is that you don't even touch grass. You're either that imbecile, or a victim of popsloppery and degenerate culture that worships garbage.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8pWFsEhQQK0&list=OLAK5uy_nrDP03wSgYJlqy7ZpVb1RZU8C-r_RO1q0&index=9https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mzOydkNX9xc&list=OLAK5uy_mouNsPRvIxdpjlxWHxWjaIdzIMFb_n9AE&index=1

I dont know why this band has so many schizo posters on this board.
>>128907507Because we don't trust the hype around Geese. Shit has been shilled here for years
>>128907500>Popslopper detected
>>128906081It's just not a fun or interesting album to shitpost about imo. Listened to it, didn't care for it, and promptly forgot about it.

>>128906081>>Nick Cave>>Lorde>>Hayley Williams>>Billy Corganimportant?
Geese's album is AOTY, but you can't say that on /mu/ because there are lot of paranoics who think a band can't be good if they're from NY, some of their parents were middle class and if RYM rates them high.No, just can't be good, no good. Absolutely no good. Complete morons. I can separate the social background from what is obviously good music. They forget that the Rolling Stones were also some art school fops from middle class families and yet you see so many here yapping about how good the Stones were. Or the Strokes.
>>128907568what's the point of complaining then
>>128908205>yet you see so many here yapping about how good the Stones werethey got mad haters though. which is hilarious. /mu/ thinks spazzy garabe like modest mouse is better than the rolling stones
>>128908279they might. the stones are super awful, important and all, but really terrible.
>>128908283don't be baiting on christmas eve anon, it's unbecoming
I dont know how to feel about this one, because i dont like a single song I've heard off it. I liked 2122 from their previous album, but it seems like the hate is singularly because they are getting popular in current year (an unforgivable sin). They aren't even really mainstream yet
>>128907932Not my problem.
>>128907475>You have never in your life listened to K-word musicNot true, I dig Bernard Herrmann
>>128906081This album just isnt that good. Its just a vehicle for the singer to shrill over nothingness background music and it insists upon itself
>>128906081It's fucking Clap Your Hands Say Yeah for zoomers t. /mu/ oldfag
>>128906081>actual important musicians >Nick CaveMaybe>Lorde >Hayley WilliamsNo>Billy CorganFuck off Billyfag
No one wants to talk about albums/musicians they actually like anymore. Anytime a band/thread gets made there's a bitter hater that just selfs impose and gets mad when he can't take the same shit he gave. People don't even know how to shit talk anymore.Too many fucking weirdos. This is DECENT/PASSABLE album, that's it.There were other albums that came out this year that shits on this album but you wouldn't get that from here because we're too busy hating on everything.
>>128906081old mu was active and actually alive but other than that i kinda like new mu. good places to post was dime a dozen back then, where the fuck can i make an offcolor joke now without getting banned?
>>128906081>that has gotten hype and traction not only from music writers but from actual important musiciansYou didn't include Trey Anastasio, the only musician who matters. Also I never see it mentioned that this zoomer band from NYC with a chinaman, some other ethnic and a literal jewish tranny has a songwriter who lays obviously christian themes into most of his songs and went on reddit and called atheists retarded.
>>128909269>procedes to not post even 1 (one) albumthe ironing
>>128909679stfu man>>128909269TRUTHbe the change u wanna seei try to contribute to actual conversations, but dishonest meme-poisoned faggots gotta shit up the place -_-also, can we ban the softcore porn for good? waifu posters kill a bunch of good threads and they dont even talk about music :(
>>128909269>>128909721Are you two genuinely retarded? Do you have a single ounce of self awareness?
>>128909679In no particular order1)Deafheaven- Lonely People with Power(Metal)2)Deftones- Private Music (Rock)3)Michael Cera Palin- We Could be Brave (Indie)4)Hot Mulligan- The Sound a Body Makes When It's Still(Emo)5)The Vanns- All That's in My Head(Alt Rock)6) Perfume Genius - Glory(Indie)7)Black Country New Road - Forever Howlong(British Weird Shit)8) Bar Italia - Some Like it Hot(Indie/Alt)9) Bad Bunny- Debi Tirar Más Fotos (Spanish)10) Rauw Alejandro- Cosas Nuetras Capitulo 1(Spanish)I'm sure there's more examples in other genres and these very genres but the point is still there.There's been threads showcasing AOTYs. Not my fault you can't find shit
>>128909987Bad Bunny is absolute bottom of the barrel dogshit and there's 0 chance a new Deftones album is good. I'll listen to the other stuff you posted but based on these two I have very little faith. I'll be back in a few hours.
>>128909153I finally heard clap your hands say yeahs first album and fuck it i really like a few of the tracks, yellow country teeth and cool goddess rust away are great
>>128910002Deftones' Private Music is the best shit they made in a decade. >My Mind is a Mountain>locked club>ecdysis>Infinite Source>cYz>Milk of the Madonna All these songs hold up in comparison to their older sound. You're just a contrarian hater who wants to believe everything is still shit.
>>128906081Tbf this is the closest we've gotten to the "old" /mu/ in years what with it being critically acclaimed indie rock that caused a lot of uproar. This thread getting tons of replies where they ignore your post to talk about how they hate this album proves that. You could argue poptimism killed the board but I remember people raving about Taylor Swift and Carly Rae Jepsen on here in 2012 and making fun of redditors that liked Queen and The Beatles. Ditto waifuism. I think the generals killed the flow quite a bit as everyone just stays in their lane. Also more people signing up to streaming services so less reason for sharethreads which is the biggest loss.
>>128906765>Seems like maybe only 10% of the users here now are optimistic about any new music in general, andThe woke era is dead and its mascots like Swift/Kendrick/Eilish etc are irrelevant has-beens; we should be glad for that instead of acting mopey.
>>128908190Can we stop spamming Nirvana/Cobaine too?
>>128909679I'd say that the new Panda Bear is the AOTY, judging by how almost everyone in here had it in their AOTY topster (at least in the AOTY threads I was posting/lurking in).
>>128910059Alright I'll give it a shot. I said that because after their first three albums their sound changed a fucking lot. I dont even really like White Pony.
>>128910059Also stop throwing "contrarian" around you dumb little cocksucker. I'll go to the matt right now over Toby Keith and Phish, you don't have a clue what you're talking about or what words even mean. Its reasonable to assume a 30 year old whatever the fuck they are band fell off when they have two albums of bullshit already. You're the one in a thread about a band bitching they aren't thqt good, and yeah maybe this album isnt as good as 3D Country, takes a while to grow on you and has less good tracks but they're a talented young band and here you are doing exactly what you accuse everyone else of doing. Fuck you. Bad Bunny my ass you stupid fucking faggot. Anyway I'll get back to you on those albums you recommended in a while here.
>>128906091>>128906098It's not a paid shill, it's Cameron. He gets his zoomer balls cradled by Rolling Stone and Pitchfork, but he keeps coming back here begging for attention. He'd been doing it all summer, before the album even came out.I guess he thinks we're the keepers of cool music and more capable of the kind of discourse he wants to hear about his own work. But he's just not getting it from us, so he keeps coming back to shill. The guy should be out using his clout, fucking prime pussy, but here he is.
>>128910372I agree they're a good band. As fans of the band we can agree this, despite being good, doesn't hold up to their previous releases. But its the most entry level to them. Geese's Getting Killed is Nirvana's Nevermind.Solid albums that are actually the weakest of the rest of the band's discography but are more accessible to the public.The albums I listed are albums that at least the band's evolved from themselves in comparison to their previous releases in that genre.
>>128906081It's not dead but /mu/ is full of miserable contrarians who get a kick out of putting down whatever gets high ratings on RYM, etc.Even if the music is good, they just can't be caught saying they like anything that isn't obscure.Last year they were probably yapping about how much they liked geese because nobody talked about them, so they could still be considered part of the sikrit club for /mu/sic connaisseurs
It's a good record, but they're literal children. Give them a few years and a few more releases before you start calling it some magnum opus.They aren't even old enough to have full absorbed their influences, so they sound like they're larping as a classic rock band. A step up from the last record, sure. But being a career band is about taking those small steps forward. Time to log off, Cameron. Back to making music. It's a good album, but this isn't where you rest of your laurels. Seriously, though. Shilling is aids.
>>128910114The non need for sharing is absolutely what's killing this board. You could actually find music from here back in the day. Especially since before the wiki because it was essential.Now that Apple and Spotify already knows me down to my shit patterns. They're the ones showcasing random ass bands/songs and I find music that way. Less incentive to even share so we're all holding onto our gems while only posting shit we hate.
>>128910489This shit is ASS compared to 3D Country. You can't convince me otherwise.
>>1289104893D Country is a better album and your brain has been destroyed by this shitty anime website>anyone liking anything is actually a PAID SHILLWhy don't you go ahead and accuse this thread of being "thread sliding" too you fucking moron like the newfags who blew in on /pol/ and cry people are talking about pretty actresses on /tv/. Actually just kill yourself, genuinely in real life end your life.
>>128910527>Just kill yourselfNot until you do it first Cameron.Then my life's purpose will be complete.
In 10 years no one will remember this trust fund slop
>>128910546>t. probably literally actually Cameron WinterHe's (you're) obviously a Nick Mullen type
>>128910518>>128910527Lol, debut album supremacy eh. You're a bunch of autists - both albums are like 6.5/10 at most. First one showed some promise, second one showed more promise. But we're still waiting for the promise to be fulfilled. Zoomers are absolutely starved for their own rock star icons, so they've jumped on this acting like it's some significant release. It's just kids playing dress up, but there's something in there. I personally hope they find it. But I also really want Cameron to stop shilling.
>>128910583Their debut album is Projector which is bad, and I'm 35. Take a break from the internet and stop literally thinking in memes spammed by streetshitting retards.
>>128910564I was wondering the other day what people will think of Gesse and other contemporary indie bands in 10-20 years? I remember when the likes of Deerhunter, No Age and The Antlers were the toast of the town but now they're maybe the least cool bands in the world (I still like them 2bh)
>>128910606>still talking about them>still likes themTheory disproven
Since we're halfway through the decade. What's Album of the decade?
>>128910627Some re-release of steely dan or pink floyd or something actually good. What are you stupid?

>>128906289>fucking retardironyyou cant understand basic english and completely missed his point
>>128906081Nothing organic about that band, it has a few good songs, that's it. 10 years ago no one would've given a second thought about that album. Culture is in decay.
the vocals are so bad holy shit i hate itone of the most annoying voices
>why yes, lets spend money to shill the most hyped album of the year on a dead website that lost its relevance years ago
>>128910640Pink Floyd and Steely Dan is every high schoolers favorite band. Up there with Metallica, Nirvana and The Dead with those fucking tie dyes. Give me your big boy choices
>>128906299>same with filmEven if you're right which I suspect you're only maybe 25% right, this is clearly not the case. My evidence: the concept of Oscar bait, people who still haven't won an award despite raking in cash and doing a stellar job>yeah well.... its because they didn't pay!Please
>>128910696>steely dan>high schoolersDelusional>Give me your big boy choicesWeen, Phish, Toby Keith.

I can't wait for their next songI saw the leak and it's called "I hate poor people so goddamn much fuck your couch I'm never buying am advertisement heres 4 minutes of ai generated slop niggers!"Truly a band revolutionary for their chutzpah

I honestly never heard of these guys until /mu/ called them samefags but I really liked their song "My dad's rich fuck you" off the "the internets only dead if your pr spend is under $250k annual" ep.>>128911310Also a banger.
I would go so far as to say if someone ever audited the financial history of this band as a product it wouldn't make sense nor be profitable but they're going to spam it anyway because there a hole in the market for rock music. So idk if they're on loans or trust fund kids. Or if they're working with a firm. I don't care that much either but I'm certain they have the capacity to afford an advertisement on 4chan.There's no way they make a return from their pr/marketing costs though. Not a chance. This is an elaborate tax write off.
There he goes, throwing his autistic tantrum that he will do for the remainder of the thread.

The wassermans are faggots their son is legit tricking out some woman in her 40s unsuccessfully for stingy amounts (can't front a few hundred to her family) and now they expect me to really go along with this charade on here. The damned management of this slop. I don't approve.
>>128911484I REALLY think you should pay for an advertisement for this band. But also all of the other artists under tbe same label umbrella. But mostly this band. No particular reason.

These motherfuckers management irl are the stingiest people I've ever had to deal with luckily from a distance. Actually stingy.
