atari teenage riot ... Techno Animal, Kill The Vultures, k-the-i

finding death grope a lot more enjoyable & fun than any of those precedents. like it sounds like it ought to feel oppressively angry and "harsh", but it doesn't. good times album imo.

and yeah, OP gif couldn't be more perfect

yeah this is the crazy part to me. i thought it would get grating, but like i'm sitting here vibing with the windows open on a summer evening

Its weirdly positive right? And the diversity of approach from song to song means it never bogs down.
Interesting that this is garnering straight up yes or NO responses.

although it's a lot more punk rock + a bunch of other things, i definitely get a shabazz palaces vibe at times (mostly in the lyrics + flow, like on "culture shock" for ex).

Yeah, it's definitely in this SP/Spaceghostpurrp/Blunt Fang nexus of sonically abrasive underground rap, but way more aggro vocally than any of those. Anyone know where this guy is from?

maria was drinking wine and blasting this all night last night. i'm worried...

scott seward, Monday, 23 May 2011 17:02 (twelve years ago) link

My wife came home from the gym a few minutes ago while I was blasting this and said "one of these days you need to let go of whatever anger you've got building up that makes you like this."

Yeah I don’t put that on them, just kinda made me re-evaluate. Gotta really suck to have an unexpected fan base like that though.
