Bad opinions • Page 332

Bon Iver, Machine Drum and Chance's albums were the most disappointing albums of last year.

 

I'll drink to that.

 

Because you've heard them so many times, or?

 

damn human energy was amazing

 

I was just thinking that we don't talk about Brand New here enough

 

to me re: deja? don't think it's that good anymore

 

None of it really connected with me. I'm a big fan of his footwork/jungle sound of his last two albums, so this kind of jarred me a bit. And it's not necessarily the sugary sweet feel to it, I just didn't feel it.

 

i mean i think rooms and vapor city are better but i still found plenty to love with human energy, it was in the same lane as like rustie and hudmo and did that sound justice while still being uniquely travis's work

 

most disappointing last year was probably andy stott, it just did nothing for me. luxury problems is a top 10 of the decade so far, and faith in strangers was a cool follow up. too many voices was just kind of...there. like he cant decide what to do next and its just a stop gap release until he figures it out

 

Fair enough.

 

Most disappointing for me was Pablo but eh not gonna get into that

 

yeah i had no interest in that record sadly, faith in strangers with a big record for me too

 

I wouldn't say it was that disappointing. There was still a lot to like on it. But I suppose compared to the two previous, it is a little. The best album to come out on Modern Love last years was Low Jack's album. It was superb. G.H.'s album was pretty great too.

 

Nails album last year was a let down.

 

ill have to check both of those out. but yeah the stott record wasnt bad but it just didnt excite me

 

i loved it at first but over time it just doesnt compare to abandon all life

 

Unsilent death is my favorite and I loved abandon all life as well. This album they just seemed to want to appeal to the overall metal audience more. Which I get, but sucks.

 

You've listened to the new Code Orange?

 

not yet but the singles are great

 

theres something elitist about the phrase "you will never be one of us" and i started hearing shit about todd being a huge meat head douche that turned me off to the record and made that phrase take on an ugly meaning

 

Kill the Creator is sick. Album has to be out there though somewhere, comes out soon.

 

Pretty years was my most disappointing last year, which is itself an unpopular opinion

 

Yeah he is like the spearhead of half the hardcore kids I know from jersey who want their scene to be super exclusive and spend half their bands set talking about it rather than just playing fucking music.

 

i forgot andy stott released an album last year lol
