Its not just that I work in an industry being massively negatively impacted by it, It’s also a moral thing for me. I’ll just continue to support bands that continue to support man made art. Easy choice.
And Slow Joy... I wish there were more reviews here. Seems like there are a lot of retrospective reviews and then reviews of completely unknown bands, not a bad thing, but big weekly releases are ignored.
Interesting discourse on Hundredth. I’m really loving this album after getting into the last one late and digging it pretty heavily too. I guess I’m not totally surprised a band that ditched the heavy guitars for a synthy electronic groove is messing with AI for whatever reason, but it does carry a bit of stigma to it in my view. Once you know it, you can’t unknow it. Comparable to the feeling of listening to a massive or troubling artist that may not fit your tastes or ideals but damn it, the music is catchy even if some other aspects are incongruent.
