Who are some artists who have tried to use popular music as a vehicle for spreading esoteric knowledge? Especially in recent generations as opposed to e.g. the hippy era or classic 60s-80s heavy metal?

Not really an expert in 80s pop but I imagine a couple of things that would separate her are the modern production sensibilities and the edgier lyrics (I.e. being able to curse more, not necessarily a big point in her favor). I think she does have a great singing voice though and it’s a nice overall trend that we’re getting some pop stars making fun music again instead of 20 sad girl ballads getting pumped out. I’d just go listen to the hits and see if you like it. You’re gonna be hearing Hot to Go at every wedding/youth related event for the next five years anyway so you might as well embrace it.

It's beyond cynical to call this album "from zero" when it's the exact opposite of what they are doing. If they wanted to have Emily and make new music they should have made a new project instead of building upon (and shitting up) Chesters legacy.

Yeah Meteora was their last really good album. Minutes to Midnight still had a few good songs.

>>123641565
A Thousand Suns is handily their best album. Pretty much all my favorite LP songs land on either ATS or Meteora, and it's mostly ATS.

I legit don't understand what you could like in ATS. You could have told me that it's another band than Linkin Park that made this album and I'd have believed you.
>>
>>123642414
Not really, it's a fairly natural progression/refinement of Minutes to Midnight, which in and of itself was foreshadowed on some of Meteora's softer songs. You can trace a throughline from something like Easier to Run to Leave Out All The Rest to Burning In The Skies, for example. If anything, songs like When They Come For Me, Blackout and Wretches and Kings are a soft return to earlier form from Minutes. I think it's really only an issue if you're a hardline fan of the aggression of the pre-Meteora material and I'll be honest, I was never the biggest fan of Hybrid Theory even as a teenager. Always preferred the moodier songs off Meteora.

I refuse to believe that All Around The World is a serious song, and not some kind of prank. With the reprise added it's 11 minutes 29 seconds long. What happens? A few verse-choruses, a key change at 3:36 (yes you thought the song was rapping up by then) including the most ugly NA NA NA NA NA section known to man, chorus, ANOTHER key change ear-bleeder, more choruses, a fuzzy mess of guitar solo overdubs, a couple more lalalalala nananana sections, outro and then (including reprise) a trumpet section. By the end your ears are in pain, or you skipped it because it's so damn long. How on earth did they green-light this song in the studio? They actually thought that 11.5 minutes of this was listenable, let alone musically good. Somehow the most loud, over-produced, and yet down-right boring songs of all time. That's not to mention that it's clearly a tacky Beatle's rip-off song, the gimmick so strong you can smell it through the speaker. And, no, it's not even successful in creating a hypnotic soundscape to bathe in. Absolutely not.

But it's not a coincidence. This is what happens when your band, in this case Oasis, runs out of its already very limited and cliche artistic vision. When you can't make anything other than the same formulaic guitar-pop sensory overload, its no wonder you'll end up with the final song of their most hyped album being a parody of the creative direction they had used an abused (as well as the coke, which surely played a big part in this mess of a song as well.)

i love Oasis and you're completely correct on all points, nothing more to add really.

even Noel says they should have taken a little hiatus/break after two albums they got overwhelmed with fame and everything that went with it, and he was still the only guy writing the tunes. with a clear head, good production and some B sides on the album instead of the songs that made it there it would have been a decent album.
