to be fair the first comment was "I'd never listen to it" not "never listen to something this long and intense in one sitting"
btw I think Prurient is superior to Vatican Shadow in all respects not because of tecno vs. noise, but because P is very unique within the noise realm whereas VS is good but there's a bunch of people doing similar or more interesting stuff
i can't imagine any time i'd put on like 40 minutes of this and be like "oh okay i'm done i'll come back to this later when i feel like it" hence why i can't expect to ever listen to this
i don't listen often but i can enjoy it? i don't listen to albums for pieces, i listen to albums for the whole cohesive product. especially for something where everything is part of a story like this, it's most necessary to listen in full and doesn't work out well to only listen to parts this conversation is stupid, i always forget you consider yourself a better consumer of music than 99.9% of this board
I don't think it's stupid... I mean... just trying to understand where you're coming from but OK in another topic... there's a lot of people out there that enjoy listening to mixes or singles or so on... the "rockist", "one full album at a time" approach is not for everyone or every genre or every occation I feel... although I do enjoy that as well
so... you can only listen to Prurient one album at a time but you can't listen to more than 40 mins of Prurient so if it's a > 40 min Prurient album, then you're not touching it
heh I do I guess you're just not making any sense but ok... *goes to random thread just to say "I'll never listen to this" & "how can anyone sit down and enjoy this" [NOT DIRECT QUOTES] ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
i come in to a thread to an artist i very much respect and have enjoyed before to be curious about what sort of mindset someone has to be in to listen to three hours of it?
If he doesn't ever want to listen to the full product then odds are this genre is not his favorite which can be said for 99.9% of the population and that doesn't mean he isn't allowed to comment on it My favorite genre is house and I post about a ton of albums that people don't give a shit about and I don't realistically expect everybody to want to listen to eleven seven-minute house loops - and that's okay? Not sure why this is a personal affront to you
gonna do a liveblog earbuds in exclusive of me listening to the entirety of this new prurient album get hyped everyone
I'll listen to it in the same way as I listened to the last Kamasi Washington album. Staggered. I love Prurient, but 3 hours is a lot.
nothing's a personal affront lol - its the www you post house because you enjoy it and want to share --> cool you don't post X just to say you don't want to listen to it --> odd but it's fine - I was genuinly curious about how cwhit felt about noise and Prurient and I get some "do you take all I say literally" responses - cool
haha that's a good one! although it's kind of odd he just threw a bunch of stuff at them to use did you listen to the bonus disc? Sister Fauna I think... it's heavier on the Merzbow
Haha I get that, just feels like you're shocked people wouldn't want to listen to three hours of noise which even as somebody who has followed him since Bermuda Drain seems really fucking exhausting I don't think your intentions are bad, you just come off more confrontational than you think (I think)
dude I'm shocked anyone else would want to!! that's why I'm trying to reach outttt haha I also see you at that Underground Dance thread @Joel (p.s. Iglooghost holy shit) - I just forget to post sometimes what's yr fav noise album?
