Makes sense doesn't seem like they're trying harder than they make it sound like clipping. are. My guess was clipping. stole his dog and gave it a way better life and now he just lurks the dogs "best life" insta and becomes increasingly bitter towards the group. The tone in the article is cartoonish, I want to get the author drunk and start talking about the album because I just picture this extremely animated ranting spilling out with lots of flying spittle, pounding of tables, and concerned glances from other customers. Then when we get kicked out for being obnoxious I'll give him a big bear hug and while gently rocking him back and forth whisper in his ear that it's ok, Daveed cant hurt him anymore. Then the tears start flowing and between his gasping sobs and dribble snot bubbles he manages to choke out "I just wanted to play Thomas Jefferson more than anything..."

tetsuodaironman Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 The album has some good songs on it. It's fine. And Daveed is a pretty cool guy. He complimented me on my music at a film festival and I was surprised because I am decent at best. Also, Danny Brown deserved a BNM (IMO).

Derek™ Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 If you’re still playing into the p4k meme, even now, I’d just like to point out that you’re being perceived as spineless and tasteless whether that’s meant to be perceived as a joke or not.

Derek™ Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 If they awarded this an 8 or BNM you would undoubtedly claim that it slaps / raps / [trite and overused buzzword here]. It may be time to reevaluate life choices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derek™ Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 In no more than three (3) buzzwords, can you tell me which songs drop the ball or lose steam on the record? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He Dead... I would have nixed that one. The feature vocals kill anything that might be seen as haunting/ominous behind the lyrics and sound of this track. Made me cringe, but, then again, that's just me. La Mala Ordina...I would have kept the features out of this one as well. Lackluster at best. But maybe these rappers are friends that they've invited on this one? Then the two minute of outro/noise. More annoying than artistic. Again, IMO. Run For Your Life and Nothing Is Safe are notable bangers for me. The former especially for inviting an original horror-core rapper on the track, the latter for the Carpenter influence (even if it is heavy-handed, it sounds good). If I could also say that I may be in the minority, but the interludes don't add much to the album. I already get the concept of it being a "horror movie" album without the sound bites. All In Your Head, low replay value. Again, feature detracts from it. The contrast of extreme melody against the sparse industrial beats kind of pulls me out of these types of songs. Blood of the Fang and Story 7 are bangers and excel from the tight, sparse production (blips, bells, static, etc.). Vocal content on Story 7, eh, are fine, but the bpm slowdown is what makes this one click for me. Listen, fam. It definitely isn't a 4.5, but also not an 8. You know this is just my opinion, right? I would return to some of these tracks, though. P.S. Who requested Piano Burning to be on the record? Hopefully, that was a joke.

timsimmons Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 I’ll rarely play it, but it’s a pretty cool field recording. I have played it a couple times since the LP arrived. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tetsuodaironman Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 Blood of the Fang is a fantastic track as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek™ Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 Definitely a more thoughtful response than I was anticipating. The slowdown on Story 7 is killer, I agree. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The slowdown on Story 7 is killer, I agree. Definitely at least a 7. Probably closer to an 8. Don’t agree with the 4.5. I don’t think that writer was in a logical frame of mind when reviewing it.
