redskyformiles
03.24.11 | giving something a 3 is such anti-hype. kno can suck a dick. |
Baphomet
03.24.11 | So much win here, but I'm surprised to see no Glassjaw.
I'm still trying to like 11. |
AggravatedYeti

03.24.11 | James Blake is number 1 outta that lot for me. Damn by the looks of it, there's a lot of albums i need to get |
redskyformiles
03.24.11 | I don't care for Coloring Book and all the songs for Our Color Green technically came out forever ago so I didn't count it. |
BigHans
03.24.11 | Its because a 3 for me basically means meh |
Deathcar
03.24.11 | This list wins a lot. Glad to see i'm not the only one not blown away by the Cunninglyguists' album. |

03.24.11 | to me a 3 means it's good but not enough for me to give a shit. i don't like the slower rapping style when compared to their other releases because i don't find them all as strong enough lyricists to pull it off, plus the beats all almost all moody mid-tempo stuff and there's not enough variation to keep it from being stagnant at times. i like political and conscious hip-hop for the most part. this newer direction with lyrics that remind me of Murs over late 90's murky beats just doesn't appeal to me all that much. |
BigHans
03.24.11 | well we can both agree that A Piece of Strange rules extremely bigtimehard |
defjaw83
03.24.11 | I'm just listening to the cunninglynguist lp for the first time now. 7 tracks in and it sounds awesome. Never heard them before tho, so nothing to base it on in regards to their discography |
BigHans
03.24.11 | shit defjaw, you arent even to the 2 best songs yet. |
defjaw83
03.24.11 | which are? |
MetallicOpeth
03.24.11 | I'm curious about 7 |
Lucidity

Yea i agree, but on first listen they all sound immense.
The Weeknd is just finishing downloading, prob won't listen tonight but could be my Friday night soundtrack! Is it upbeat redsky?? Not heard anything about them before |
redskyformiles
03.24.11 | it's more like chill stuff. unless you plan on doing a lot of fucking it might not be the best soundtrack to your weekend. |
acorncheese
03.24.11 | No Vessels, Adam? |
defjaw83
03.24.11 | Actually listening to the first track now. Really enjoying it. It's coming through my Macbook speakers so can't get the full effect right now but i'll have a proper listen tomorrow man. Thanks for the rec |
redskyformiles
03.24.11 | vessels released a new cd? |
acorncheese
03.24.11 | They did indeed. It was officially released on the 21st, I believe. But it's been on iTunes for a few weeks. I haven't heard it yet. Still waiting for it to come in the mail. |
Yotimi
03.24.11 | I'm so far behind this year. Only have 2&11. 2's awesome though. |
Inveigh
03.26.11 | yeah the new CunninLynguists didn't have as much staying power for me as I'd hoped. I still like it a lot and all, I just can't listen to it as often as the new Raekwon, or even Onry Ozzborn or Sims for that matter
nice list -- dunno how much of a metal mood you're in but I've been going nuts for the new Mitochondrion lately, and as of tonight the newest Blut Aus Nord album. I think they'd be up your alley |
redskyformiles
03.26.11 | i had no idea there was a new blut aus nord album. i love them. i'll definitely check it out! |
theacademy
03.26.11 | needs some vessels, some late night alumni, some saigon |
