I haven't seen this for sale anywhere, but I do know they're killing it lately. It's an album it features Denzel curry, Yung simmie, da$h and a few others. Candy drips did a cassette limited to 100 and it sold out in minutes. I read on reddit someone wants to press one of their releases on vinyl. With ruby's background in punk/hardcore music they make such amazing music that gets the adrenaline going. . And to think he didn't even want to rap is mind boggling because he has the craziest flow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really do hope they press something of theirs soon (Radical $uicide would be great). And I had no clue Ruby had that background, that's cool. And I agree, I love Ruby's flow. I always look forward to his verses. pizza face 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I saw them with the Buffet Boys in February Ruby was playing Chop Suey by System of a Down on drums it was pretty sick it got the crowd hyped. Radical Suicide would be cool as a 7" ....*Side Note* When I saw Danny Brown last month Skywlkr played Magazine during his DJ Set - no one knew the song unfortunately and it didn't get the crowd that hyped Edited October 31, 2016 by mmfood Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OU818 Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 felt like this year had some pretty great records but right now nothing holds a candle to Alcest's Kodama and Oathbreaker's Rheia in my book. Those two records blow me away every listen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't find it disappointing, but I hear a lot of people are were bummed out by American Football. :/ Big Grams was kind of a disappointment, I expected more out of it.

A couple specifics will do just fine, thanks fellas It just came out like a Big Boi record with kind of crummy pop beats instead of a real collaborative album. It seemed like both sides of the collab compromised too much and lost the best parts of themselves. It was a real bummer.

Derek™ Posted November 27, 2016 Share Posted November 27, 2016 I can't say it was a disappointment since I wasn't necessarily stoked on it, but that Lost In Kiev does nothing for me at all. Or rather, it has the opposite effect – there are a few cool bits sprinkled throughout here and there, but a good portion is shockingly formulaic and forgettable to my ears. The parts that did stick with me the most are the super corny samples that either skirted on the edge of cringe or went full-on oof. I don't know; I'm aware that I'm in the minority since a lot of the post-rock folks on VC loved it. But yeah. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems to be pretty hit or miss with the post regulars. I really liked the samples on it, which was the opposite for the new Kokomo. I think Russian Circles still might be the best post album of the year for me though. Edited November 28, 2016 by Dave Grohl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DecayToDeath Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 I've been slacking hard on my 2016 project lately...I still think 116 albums isn't a bad enough pool for a top 10 list though. I'll try for like 130 by the end of the year. Biggest disappointments: Owen, You Blew It and clipping. (EP was good but the album wasn't).

Saxonjulin Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 My top 10 list so far (very good year. This was tough this year) Thrice - To Be Everywhere Is To Be Nowhere Dust Moth - Scale American football - lp2 Survive - RR7349 David Bowie - Blackstar Alcest - Kodama Deftones - Gore Puscifer - Money Shot Death grips - Bottomless Pit Honorable mentions: Dinosaur jr Radiohead De la soul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
