bluescreenlife Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 I think a better title for this album is The Justin Vernon Sound Machine: A Mosaic of Noises I Make On Instruments With My Friends When We're Baked whoa, rooks and nardes 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And this album is fucking great, as someone who loved 22 and couldn't care less about the first two albums I'm quite satisfied. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rooks Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 Haha I'm glad to be Dennis in this situation. Somebody needs to get Pitchfork out on a nice boat trip and ask them to reveal the source that paid for this review. They won't say no. Because of the implication.

RadDonut Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 (edited) I can't get over the electronic voice stuff..it's a no from me. Edit: to be fair, Hey Ma is a decent track and the middle tracks do have that Vernon emotion that I enjoy in his voice.

JRHews Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 Listened to it twice again today, and while some tracks grew on me a bit, I still find the majority of it just flat out bad. There is very little substance to carry the record as a whole. Songs like Hey Ma, Faith and Naeem end before they fleshed out properly. And again with the lyrics and vocal delivery being atrocious, just doesn't hold my interest long enough. I was just waiting for it to be over again.

deafening Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 I didn't bother to give this a listen myself, I just saved some time asking a friend if he still uses auto-tune on his voice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ntslash Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 This album sounds like Justin Vernon woke up one morning and said, "I want to make a really shitty version of 22, A Million." In that, he has succeeded. Great job, Justin! There are some seriously shitty songs on this record. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CVHX Posted August 10, 2019 Share Posted August 10, 2019 ive listened a few times and not sure if anything really stands out to me. 22 a million took some time to grow on me so maybe this will be the case on this one too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's only auto-tune on his vocals on one song (the first one) and it's for maybe 20% of the vocals. I guess that technically fits your parameters of it being non-listenable because it has auto-tune but it's kind of silly to write an album off over 30 seconds.

I totally thought that song would have it when I was trying to think of the tracks that do. Kind of mindblowing tbh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
