>drops literal piece of garbage album filled with meme music>gets a bunch of friends to all give it 5* reviews pre-release and spam every social platform saying it'll change your life when it's finally released>pay music twitter users to write reviews for it>album obviously gets chart banned for ratings discrepancies>immediately have a meltdown on Instagram and tell same friends to spam RYM mods calling them fascistWhat the fuck is this controversy even, this might be the worst sack of shit I've ever heard and it's the most obvious chart ban of all time
>autistic tranny makes album that samples sonic and mlpthere's a fucking surprise
completely unchecked autism
>>129458589actually sounds kind of fresh to me, kinda respect the hustle
>>129458768(political polemics/statements aside)
>>129458714Jesus christ
>>129458714based ragebait guerilla marketing (even if obviously sincere)
this is wild lol
>>129458768idk man it's all pretty forced and le quirk chungus coded
>>129458857i don't entirely disagree but it still strikes me as a relatively interesting take on pop music and i mean this evaluation entirely removed from everything besides the actual music
>>129458589lmaooo thank you for making a thread on this. it’s absurd and the album is dogshit and the people who made it are sniffing their own shit acting like it’s the second coming of christ
>>129458797fair enough if this is just one massive ploy for attention cus it is working clearly
>>129458920needed to vent because I was successfully ragebaited
>>129458920i only skimmed but what exactly is so terrible about the music beyond the way its presented and sold? i guess it struck me as an interpretation of psychedelia that doesn't sound retro/dated/nostalgic and remains psychedelic without overtly repackaging your 60s favs (it being heavily sample based aside)
>>129458960It's an attempt at a Sophie clone that's extremely pretentious and uses a bunch of AI and annoying samples
AOTY
>>129458971the small portions i heard and liked sounded nothing like sophie to me. just because there's non musical sound in a pop setting + synth basses + vocal chops and granular stuff doesn't mean it's a sophie clone. this feels way too comparatively warm, analog, organic texturally. but maybe i didn't listen to enough to say.
>>129459076>>129459063sus
>>129459091someone can't imagine a plurality of opinion from independent origins on an anon board
>>129459108if you genuinely believe this bloated slop is in any way a credible piece of art then more power to you but I can only really conceive of you just being one of the friends& guys
>>129459205tbf... i didn't realize this shit was actually partially ai generated apparently? yeah i take back my praise
>>129459219there's a written review on rym from who I can only assume is another one of the band's buddies that mentions how this album completely changed their opinion on AI music for the better lol
This album definitely suffers from being stuck between a modernist ambition/grandiosity and a postmodern camp/populism making the whole thing really embarassing/egregious in how its presented even though a lot of the music is very thoughtfulI do think getting mad about a band called "friends" having friends posting about it reads a little maldingI find the engagement with rym in the tracklist and aesthetics of the album really eyeroll worthy but i wouldnt say this is that instagram post telling girls how to get justin bieber Yummy to #1
>>129461135I imagine this was coordinated through a clandestine discord server which is infinitely more cringe than the Bieber thing
chart ban was removed
>>129458818nice schizomeltdownmaxxing
>>129462162is it all that shocking they're all bronies
oh shit this is the Shadowdog guy…ok i might actually check this out
Don't care, didn't ask. Until TPAB drops from #1 and people stop massively overrating In Rainbows, the charts are fundamentally broken. They mean nothing, they say nothing.
>>129462864tpab is awful you're right
garbage album should get nuked off the platform for trying to game the system
>>129458589if a random internet artist you've never heard of suddenly appears in the top releases of RYM, chances are they're spamming themselves on the site. it's such a shitty way of marketing yourself
>>129466371this is literally the case. Look at the way they market it on their socials with constant screenshots of 5 star ratings on rym and when they got chart banned it was full blown meltdown saying they don't understand how they could tell it was review bombing when they've worked so hard to build a fanbase on the platform lol.How often does the average rym user give a new release 5 stars on first listen give me a break.
these people are too fucking much
>>129461564 #We are on 4chan, lets have some perspective here
>>129458589You're wrong. The album has simply been one of the most anticipated records of the year, because one of its members is tirestires, who was behind shadowdog; one of the ultimate internet music cult classic that continues to rise in notoriety.
nice promo post jc
idk who any of these people are and I've never listened to whatever genre this is before. the concept is interesting and the novelty of picking out all the millennial meme samples is fun.i think i get the point and i probably won't ever return to this.
So this is a samefag talking to himself in order to fake attention for his ponyslop album? Sad!
>>129473405what's the concept?
>>129473728Make a cringe pony album and fake interest in it in order to gain listens
>>129473728Idk. I just picked up on themes of nostalgia, the desire to hold on to childhood things (or childhood things reasserting themselves as intrusive thoughts/thought spirals) as we age but the problems that arise from that impulse. A comment on the eternal cycle of things being reused and nothing being wholly new, and an attempt to reimagine known things as something novel, or to show how known things can evolve in consciousness over time, or become a sticking point frozen in time.I didnt read any of the song titles and idk what the artist would say but that's what i got from it.
>>129473414Correct
>there's a new tirestires album>its good>it's really fucking good>its inarguably better than the debutI'm so glad I didn't kill myself!!!!!!!!!!!!!10/10!!!!!!!!!!10/10!!!!!!!!!!10/10!!!!!!!!!!SUICIDE POSTPONED!!!!!!!!!!!!! I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR RHIS DAY FOR A DECADE
Samefag thread
>>129458589i'm on track 75 and I'm noticing it's a lot more focused and clean than shadowdog was. sd was headache-inducingly noisy. also folx is kinda funnier, or at least tries to be. sd has the "i finally delete her nudes" line and that's about it.
what's all the numbers in the lyrics on bandcamp about
>>129473414no I genuinely hate this album and dislike people fucking with the ratings system>>129473834this>>129473906shut up
>>129470767yeah man tirestires is definitely a big deal and people have heard of them before
>>129475246Jfc. I knew this belonged in >>129425379
