I can't believe they got Bjork to say "HAVE A SAD CUM BABY"

 

[JJDinomite]

Just checking out all of the posts (on DG's Facebook and Youtube videos) and the reaction to this "album" has been a lot more mixed than I thought it would be

Up My Sleeves has 176 likes, 1 dislike on YouTube right now... actually seems pretty positive from what I've seem. /mu/ is down so it's hard to tell lol

 

[Yado]

listening to the first song of this new album

being 100% real here

this is just straight up noise

It's like some parody shit. I can't wait until they finally confess that this was all an elaborate plan to see how low hipsters will sink.

Not that surprising if you've seen the shit she's done before. Talking about the Pagan Poetry video here.

This shit isn't even obscure or that weird, I don't understand. I have friends who are far from hipsters who like Death Grips. Check out The Money Store, it's kicking and pretty accessible.

Oh wow haha, I did not expect that. I've listened to all of her albums but never really checked out any of her music videos, but yeah. Makes more sense now.

 

[bobbychalkers]

Black Quarterback is my shit...that is all.

Scratch that...its Voila....

Why are you so angry that people like music you don't like? Not all music is for everyone. But posting close minded stuff like this after the PopGAF thread is pretty hypocritical.

 

[dimb]

This is the first Death Grips stuff I have liked since Exmilitary.

I'm sorry sir, but this is straight up noise.

Yeah, it shocked me at first too. Can't wait to see what she's going to put out on her next album, it's been 3 years since Biophilia released.

 

[bobbychalkers]

Scratch that...its Voila....

Fuck....nevermind again, Big Dipper, that's a borderline Kala-era M.I.A. track.

 

[Soma]

wasn't really into their last two releases

but

digging this a lot so far

 

[gorfyako]

I can't believe anyone would voluntarily listen to this, much less record it. Is this supposed to be music? Is this the world we live in?

I bet you like every genre but rap and country.

First two songs aren't selling me, "Black Quarterback" is alright so far.

 

[deli2000]

Giving this a listen.

'Up My Sleeves' man.

HOLY SHIT.

 

[Astarte]

THIS FUCKING ALBUM JESUS CHRIST

 

[LouisaFerre]

Yeah man you really owned the people in this thread listenin to GARBAGE I don't like. Do they not have any brains or something? Do they not get that just because something isn't aesthetically appealing to me that they're somehow wrong or below my patrician tastes for enjoying it? they probably don't even like it, just trying to be some stupid ass hipster memerap lovers. smh.

Death Grips fans are on the same level as people who unironically listen to Kitty Pryde.

Makin me SICK.

 

[shogunduk]

already love it on my first listen.

 

[Sai-kun]

[deli2000]

Listened to the whole thing.

Fuck yesss, man I love waking up to a new Death Grips album.

fuuuuuck this is so good. nothing like the first listen of a new Death Grips.

 

[OrlanisWorks]

That some dirty ass shit.

Black QB has a pretty good beat. Say Hey Kid does too. Can't comment on the vocal quality.

 

[wsoxfan1214]

nah merzbow is straight up noise. This is noise-hop though.

 

[Accoun]

So far, this is better than I thought it's gonna be. Never been a fan, though.

 

[Screaming Meat]

This is noise-hop though.

That's an intriguing mash-up. Plus with Bjork in there...

Hmmm. Imma have to check this out.

 

[Fey]

[ymmv]

I saw Bjorks name, I read "new album", I was excited for 30 seconds and then I heard the tracks. What a load of crap.

 

[hypernima]

NLDW> EX > GP > TMS

 

[Courage]

Calling music 'noise' is the laziest 'critique' one can make on music, and it's also hilarious since that's what music actually is in the end

 

[Mogwai]

Where's the D on the cover?

Real music is polytonic; a mixture of different frequencies played together in a manner that sounds harmonious.

 

[remz]

point? death grips is polytonic.

just because someone doesn't like certain music doesn't mean they can just dismiss it as noise. especially if they're some uneducated peasant pop music stan
