you should just listen to nothing from the band until the album drops, then listen front to back, and post your reactions in this thread
See I have listened to lots of death grips and that album artwork is enough to make me decide to never listen again because it’s frickin freaky
Don't watch this video, I briefly did and regretted it Death Grips Share Disgusting New “Shitshow” Video | Pitchfork
so this album slaps pretty hard. the jazz influence is really cool. More esoteric and less straight-forward than Bottomless Pit or TMS but still catchy.
Lucas Abela isnt on this as much as i thought he would be, sounds like his weird ass glass blowing instrumentals are just sampled on a couple tracks. funny how they went from using an electric guitar to using a heavily blown out electric bass guitar for a lot of these songs instead of just using a synth bass. adds to that jazzy sound. i think id slot this one right behind The Money Store, it really is that good. cant stop listening to it.
im almost certain the tracklisting is wrong though, these songs flow well but certain songs feel like they should flow into other songs. Dilemma transitions into The Fear pretty perfectly, Death Grips Is Online leads into The Horn Section pretty seamlessly as well. really weird
Yeah I've noticed that too, this dude on reddit posted an alternative tracklisting that flows pretty well: Death Grips Is Online The Horn Section Streaky Dilemma The Fear Black Paint Disapointed Linda's In Custody Flies Little Richard Shitshow Hahaha Outro
