old music vs new music was a tedious, played out discussion even for 2007 ilm, thank god it's been parlayed into a debate about formats

lol i am a little embarrassed to have participated but what else are you gonna do when you are procrastinating at work

between that and the uncut list thread it has been pretty dire since the year-end critics shit ended
― marcos, Thursday, 7 January 2016 21:34 (eight years ago) link
Possibly I'm just grumpy
I'm not actually one of those people who dislikes ilm although I rarely post there but yeah it's been particularly groundhogdaysuicide.gif lately (don't forget the eclectic thread)

yes, the year-end critics thread was highly enlightening

If I had access to a time machine, I'd go back to 1994 all and play 'em something like, I dunno, the recent Bloc Party record or The 1975 or a recent Coldplay record and be all like: "This is what is going to happen to music", and the people of 1994 would be like "FUCK! FUCK! NO! We must do what we can to ensure this NEVER happens!"

I've heard half of those Norman Records list... some of them are really good and glad they're giving deserved attention to some ignored records but there's also some boring ones in there. At any rate these sort of 'non-zeigeist' lists are always better than the consensus ones. Yeah we all love Lemonade but I prefer finding out about records I might have overlooked instead of the ones we've talked about all year.

#2.Hand Over Fist - goodhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4eEb0SC6R0M
#3.Luau - o.k.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gcxxh1yewhM
the rest of the album is a dud for me.

(re: yank crime)
"It's Nice to Have a Friend" is the most interesting track, IMO. How would you describe that musical setting? It's evoking or imitating, what, a certain style of Chinese music?
