Don't know about overrated, it sure was something new. But I don't like it.

Are we really comparing Slint to Tool..... Who's next? Death Grips?



Yeah I imagine Spiderland must have been more interesting in '92 or when it came and I love love love some parts of it but a lot of the stuff is just 'eh'. at least imho



And let's not fucking joke on the importance Lateralus/Aenima had lol. Like let's be serious

"Are we really comparing Slint to Tool..... Who's next? Death Grips?"



God please no.



It was a reaction to this statement about this: "It's hypnotic the way that they use repetition, rhythm and the subtle tempo changes." Which fits Spiderland quite well, admittedly.

Oh it's a seminal release for sure. But it's also not very good.

Too much build-up for too little pay-off, it's indeed similar to this in that regard. :P



I'm also kiiinda averse to spoken word in music (exceptions and all) which doesn't help.

Spiderland is better than the majority of music in general, so gonna give this all a soft no

I've never hated Tool. Didn't get em for sure, but I'm this close to hating this thing haha. What a painful, uneventful slog. Ya make me wait 10 plus minutes to show me some distortion. Yippee do. 7empest saves it a bit cause it has some gripping energy but the rest of this is pretty much worthless.

It's okay. Sometimes. It's like venom's black metal. I can see why it's important, but I'm not gonna waste my time listening to it

Spiderland takes a massive dump on Lateralus and flushes it down the toilet of hell into poopland where it shall remain forever

Not sure where the Spiderland comparisons are coming from but agreed.

Lol I think the original comparison was kinda warranted but at this point it's a great band vs. meh band game, which suits me just fine

This hasn't got an ounce of atmosphere whatsoever. It really could pass off as a generic soundtrack to its screensaver art.

Also the new Lana is so boring that I'll either end up enjoying this or just getting really pissed at 2019 US music if I don't

"I'll either end up enjoy this or just getting really pissed at 2019 US music if I don't"

I'm trying to parse this sentence but it's breaking my brain atm.

And there's so much good music that's been released this year! This album defn shouldn't be the make or break.
