the pretty seamless blend of styles here is no easy feat but something about this falters like a good majority of the modern post-punkers do

Ledd which modern post-punkers are you into?

Album Rating: 3.0

none of them that i've checked, really (six or so bands). but i'd be foolish to assume they're all bad. there's just something inescapable about the sound that puts me off



i'm up for recs

Album Rating: 2.5

all of the Lust For Youth albums are good. ALL of them.



it's basically all synthpop tho, but it's like the post-punk adjacent form of synthpop

I’m definitely not getting as much out of this as I would like. I feel like a lot of the back half kinda goes in one ear and out the other. Maybe I still just need more time though.

Indie ie. independent, is a genre? Like hip-hop, country, etc? I thought "landfill indie" was just a derogatory way to describe guitar driven rock and pop of questionable quality. To now use it as a genre seems lazy, unimaginative and dishonest.

I call the Smiths indie, but they are not the same os Throbbing Gristle, who I also call indie. I think the journo's lust for labels is coming unstuck.

The aesthetics of indie: the longing for a golden age, the melancholy, poverty chic, and the overall values of simplicity, autonomy and austerity. This may not be appealing to immigrant or marginalised groups who have already experienced poverty and experience genuine outsiderness as a social class
