the kind of video senser would have made if they'd had the budget
tbh the music is about on senser's level too

ah that video just makes that suicide sample even more intense.

not feeling the video - there's no reason for it to be 9 minutes long ans for all the viscera there's a pointlessness to the entire concept

expected her to not do something thats so familiar but the songs ok. bit too chemical bros/prodigy ish though. i expect better from her.
― titchy (titchyschneiderMk2), Monday, 26 April 2010 14:34 (fourteen years ago) link
good video though. and her conceptualism is still there. wonder what the sound of the album will be like.
sort of reminds of the 'windowlicker' vid with the distended length and american setting albeit with the avant-grotesquerie replaced by inane blackly comic quasipolitical challops

there ought always to be room in pop music for syncretists/dilettantes with a sense for the right wtf direction, even if u hate it u gotta have respect for her
malcolm mclaren would have wanted it this way

not sure if anyone follow pitchfork on twitter, but she's tweeting there all day and it's possibly the most annoying thing she's ever done. not really sure what she's trying to accomplish by being so kayne/all-caps/obnoxious, when i've seen and heard interviews where she's a very normal, laid back kind of person.

pretty sure "biz" isn't used ironically

Listening to it again in hi quality and I'm still frustrated at how great the sample is and how it gets ruined by unnecessary echo on the vocals and the lazy production. Her voice sounds way better when it's slightly behind the sound, not in front of it all. Song sounds killer until she torches it down with the vocals... oh well, we'll always have ghostrider...

I don't mind this song, but I hope it isn't representative of what LP3 has in store generally. She seems too good and too canny to drop some kind of disappointing album on us in 2010.

A STORY TO BE TOLD through word-of-mouse IF UR BORD spead newszak #miap4k
re: that tracklisting, I can totally see her sampling Tequila by Terrorvision and turning it into some sort of uberhip dancefloor filling 2010 equivalent of Paper Planes; except where that was basically just a good sample with some tired sounding samples and annoying vocals, this will be http://991.com/newgallery/Terrorvision-Autographed-Publi-326554.jpg + tired sounding samples and annoying vocals.
― Jamie_ATP, Monday, 26 April 2010 18:25 (fourteen years ago) link
Sorta tempted to start a poll to decide which former ILM darling is now the most hated. First two obvious inclusions would be MIA and Hold Steady, with possibly a nod to Joanna Newsom.

I wouldn't want to live in a world where my primary musical association with "Tequila" was with some group called Terrorvision who look like that and not with, you know, the Champs.
