Now that their career is over, can we agree that they were great composers?
>>128148021Yeah they wrote some good tunes, though they were maybe too focused on stylistic memes. It gave their music an airy hipster vibe
>>128148021let's wait a few more years before addressing this important question
composers? maybe in an incredibly generic basic bitch sense, they're primo nepo type musicians where they had great production backing them and wrote incredibly simple "rock" tunes with essentially pop sensibility to such a degree I thought they were faggy until I got older and decided they had a few good tracks. As far as popular rock bands of the 21st century Strokes were better "composers"
>>128149006Did you even listen beyond OS?
>>128149006>incredibly simple "rock" tunesSiberian Breaks is incredibly simple?
>>128149006>Strokes were better "composers"laughed right thereidk what is "nepo" about MGMT but if you criticize them for that then mention The Strokes, the ultimate nepo band, i just don't know what to say.
>>128148021Picrel is their best:
>>128149165not saying Strokes aren't nepo, they are. I'm saying they're slightly better "composers">>128149022they didn't get better they got worse, LDA was all right
they are better at writing pop and better at writing weird songs than most people, the random shit they throw out https://youtu.be/ABtQrFn7zQs crazy love this song>>128149146siberian breaks is good but they have never bothered another writing a long song kind of sad >>128149006the strokes haven't made anything worth listening after their first 2 albums, mgmt is still doing interesting stuff worth listening to, while being poppier and weirder at the same time
