I'm sorry Sobhi but this is one of your lesser pieces

I mean I haven't heard this but the review is so incredibly vague I could have just read an article on how the genres you mentioned sound and I'd still have more information on this record...

i think you're missing the point of how this site functions for people reading reviews. it's not www.ultimatedroneslowcore.com where people are coming for in depth analysis and comparisons to bands no one else knows. the key to being a source for a wide audience is discussion in relate-able terms and ideas. i described how the record sounds and why i liked it, which is what i want people reading this to know.



i could write hundreds of pages on El-P's music and its impact on modern production/ hip-hop in general. i could also dive into specific comparisons to techniques used on his obscure mixtapes or similar progressive producers (there are none). if you're reading articles on drone music then you probably dont need to be reading reviews by semi-mainstream indie publications.

I don't understand why you can't just admit to having written a bad review. What's wrong with your review is that it's obvious that you don't listen to a lot of drone/slow-core so you can't really explain what sets this particular album apart from the genre in general.

If you can, feel free to broaden my horizons and name another band that plays slowcore drone so I can not sound like such a big idiot

also all their other albums are 4-4.5/5 and this is their best imo

this is pretty solid.



but:

The record is washed in enough echo and reverb to rival My Bloody Valentine


fundamentally different kinds of fuzz homie. MBV is all guitars with no production effects. This shit is washed in prod-board reverb and kind of just meanders about.



just a point of reference really; in the end everything I just said is opinions,opinions,opinions
