BROCKHAMPTON - The Family & TM (Nov. 17th & 18th, 2022) • Page 9

damn its really over

 

does amazon keep the performances up or no?

 

They did for The Weekend’s Dawn FM experience so I assume they will here too.

 

If not, it's on YouTube/pinned on their Reddit.

Been listening to a lot of these guys over the past could of days, but honestly, I have gona back to the Saturation stuff much. Feels like a completely different era (which I guess it was).

I love iridescence, but I think GINGER might give it a run for its money as their most well-rounded albums. "If You Pray Right" aside, "St. Percy" and "I Been Born Again" are such underrated bangers. Love "Victor Roberts" closing the project, too.

 

Big Boy and Dearly Departed are the only two I don’t return to on that album as much, but they’re both solid

 

The mics are so quiet and the audience is so loud on the stream haha

edit: seems like they might have fixed it halfway into GOLD

 

Both albums have a few interesting tracks lyrically but neither of these records are doing much for me sadly.. at least it’s not just only Kevin on all the tracks?

Anyways, Roadrunner is much better than both of these records combined IMO.

 

about to do my run through of all their albums minus all American trash of course

 

Listened to TM, I though it sounded pretty forced and apathetic as a record.

 

fuck it we added all american trash but here’s the ranking so far

1. iridescence
2. saturation 2
3. saturation 3
4. saturation
5. all american trash

 

Saturation III > Roadrunner > iridescence > Saturation II > Saturation > Ginger > The Family > TM >

IMO

 

No I do not like that ranking at all

 

let’s finish it besides TM

1. Iridescence
2. Saturation 2
3. The Family
4. Roadrunner
5. Saturation 3
6. Ginger
7. Saturation
8. All American Trash

 

nevermind I finished TM and that was something but now the definitive cobra rankings:


1. Iridescence
2. Saturation 2
3. The Family
4. Roadrunner
5. Saturation 3
6. Ginger
7. Saturation
8. TM
9. All American Trash

 

Fuck I really want to make some time to watch that final show, that sounds like great closure

Hope it doesn't get taken down before I get the chance

 

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

 

Prefer these two albums to the last one. Roadrunner had too many features and felt slightly messy and all-over-the-place. These two albums are the opposite- really coherent and fun to listen to.

 

Iridescence
Saturation II
The Family
Ginger
Saturation III
Saturation
TM
Roadrunner

 

Iridescence
Saturation III
Saturation
Saturation II
Roadrunner
The Family
Ginger
TM

Finally got to listen to them both and I like The Family a fair bit, cool sound and interesting exploration of his feelings on the band as a whole. TM did very little for me though, doubt I'll return to it, feels like an album they were already checked out on.

 

"My American Life" sounds like Dijon

 

I do recommend revisiting TM if it didn't quite do it for you at first, I also felt (ironically) that it sounded more like an obligation than The Family did, but it's grown on me with each listen

 

Ugh I really can't afford to spend money on iridescence or GINGER merch

 

Also shuffling their discography this morning and I have no idea why anyone ever thought Ameer was their most talented member when Dom (or literally any other member) is right there not doing the same flow on every song
