The Lulls in Traffic - Rabbit in the Snare (May 22nd, 2017) Album • Page 3

what I love about the record is how well written the music is. I'm not obsessed with the rapping but I think the music behind is really interesting. Aaron wrote some really beautifully programmed tracks. Really love the song dominant, absolutely beautiful

 

How have you heard it already?

 

So how many tracks have rapping ?

 

I just think it's awesome that Talib Kweli is featured on a track.

 

Agreed, should be flames

I hope this isnt a one-and-done project. Itd be cool to see Aaron truly explore hip-hop territory beyond these 11 songs

 

They just posted the title track! I LOVE this.

 

This album might end up being a good segway for me to get into some hip-hop. Never really been able to get into the genre outside of a couple Gambino songs. Either way, I love the new song and I'm really excited for this release.

 

So stoked. This is really great

 

album's up for temporary pay what you want on the lulls.net. coldest night is awesome.

 

I need to come back to this more now that it's actually out!

 

I might be being stupid but I can't see this on the main page. What am I doing wrong? Has it already ended?

 

It's here: The Lulls In Traffic - Store

 

Ah, for some reason when you click on the main page it takes you to a different version of the store without the digital download option. Thanks.

 

Ahh, yeah I see now. I didn't even scroll down, just went straight to the store tab when I grabbed it earlier haha.

 

Ahhhhhhh Winding Ivy!!!

 

Yea that was weird. I found the right store by googling for lyrics haha

 

Enjoying this on my first listen but it's wayyyyy less hip-hoppy than I expected.

 

Just finished the album. They've definitely got a great sound, but the album does feel a little samey. More features would help as Ivan's voice/flow is kinda one-note. Aaron, on the other hand, steals the show. I'd be interested in hearing them try out brighter textures and quicker tempos as well, but for a debut project, this is pretty great. The instrumentation is dreamlike in the best way and the new version of The Rope to Pull Yourself Together is beautiful.

 

This would be so much better without the presence of discount Mike Shinoda. I would love a version of this with his parts cut out, ha.

 

How do we get a version of this without the awful talkrap. thank you

 

Someone should ask Aaron for the stems and remove the stupid whiteboi rapper.

 

Yeah, Ives is definitely a huge weakpoint. He's fine on some songs and distracting on others.

 

winding ivy is by far my favorite tho i think it's cus it reminds me of erase.

i actually think the rapping enhances some tracks (winding ivy, coldest night, touch) but for the most part detracted from the record.

 

I think Ivan's lyrics are pretty interesting though, I like the song about his dad a lot.

 

I don't think the rapping is distracting at all. It's at least fairly interesting, lyrically, and it's not really bad, at least not in a way that takes me out of the songs or loses my interest.
