OT: Watcha Listening To? - Part II

[YoSoyLalo]

I’m very partial to Isolation Drills.

GBV is usually good for 2 or 3 10/10 songs an album (aside from their top top albums like Bee Thousand and Alien Lanes which were pretty perfect)

Twilight Campfire, Chasing Heather Crazy, and Glad Girls FTW.

Robert Pollard knows how to make a killer pop tune man. All great songs.

Never see anyone talk about Sandbox, definitely one of my fav albums of theirs. The Drinking Jim Crow might be my favorite GBV song.

I have to investigate more. I have Bee Thousand, Isolation Drills, Do the Collapse and Mag Earwig!

I don’t listen to a TON of rap, so I’m far from an aficionado. I’d say about 20% of what I listen to is rap/hip hop.

In terms of current rap I like I mainly listen to: Kendrick of course, Tyler the Creator, Kanye, Playboi Carti (yeah he’s basically a gimmick but the hooks), and Travis Scott (again more of a hook artist than a rapper). Death Grips if they count. I like a lot of the psychedelic influences these guys have in their beats. As for older stuff, the usual, Nas/Biggie/Pac/Jay-Z/Outkast/Tribe. I consider Nas the GOAT of that era for Illmatic alone. I’d say that album is by far my favorite rap album.

Sandbox is one of the few GBV albums where every song is quality. It’s really f***ing great. Not nearly as experimental and weird as some of their more middle stuff, but still out there.

I still bump OutKast from time to time... If you like hooks you might like Schoolboy Q. He's Kendricks childhood friend and they kill it together.

This is my favorite song by school

I like him because no matter who he's with on the track he brings the hood rat out of them

Under the Bushes, Under the Stars is one of my favorites. Came out the year after Alien Lanes in 1996. It was their first album to use 24-track recording instead of 4-track, so it's a bit more polished. It has a big sound which I like.

Always loved No Sky off that album, barely listened to the rest of it

Have you listened to Sandbox

I have not.

Got a pair of AirPod Pros; I’m surprised by how good they sound. Too bad I still use an iPod.

How can you look at me as if I was just another one of your deals?

Sandbox is really good. If you like that, I think you'd like this band fIREHOSE.

Hah dude I went through an Anti-Flag kick over January. I used to LOVE that band.

Like this a lot. First song sounds very early 80s REM

Used to, what happened haha? I listen to mostly anything except a few genres, that I won't listen too, basically most of the mainstream trash

There's only so many times a 30-year-old can listen to songs like "Captain Anarchy" LOL. Do you know Whatever It Takes? It was a side project started by the bassist/singer of Anti-Flag. They only put out one LP but it's very good. More emo than Anti-Flag.



I'm the opposite, I only listen to a few genres.
