It was a fundamentally flawed “crescendo brained” comment but I’m not enough of a nerd to apply that here because Kayo is a band you respect but don’t love, I feel this is the way of things

having said that, Blue Lambency >

I don’t care how much intrigue it has. It definitely has merit in its intrigue but the song would have been so much better if it was cut so much shorter. It’s not hard to understand we people wouldn’t like it. I’m older now so I wanna go through all this bands stuff again. A 3.5 is about right still because I love and hate things about this album lol

Also care to tell me what the pretentious “crescendo brain loss” phrase means?

idk something something you’re too much of a slave to the build / payoff mechanic that it becomes difficult to recognise anything to the contrary. Sometimes the journey is the goal, not the destination. Especially if you like A LOT of third wave post-rock (it was practically an epidemic for a good while and thankfully that tired formula died many moons ago)

total guess of course

If that’s tried Demon that’s making a LOT of assumptions on how and why I consume music like post rock or “crescendo core”

I was guessing as to what the criticism entailed, rather than offering it as my opinion on your taste specifically

Oh true autocorrected to tried lol what, yeah I know. That seems to be the general criticism of post rock listeners.

gonna need some citations before i buy into any refutation that endless linear builds and heavily telegraphed moments of gratification don't rot your brains and leave you at a loss with any music that turns the lights out and demands you orient yourself or die trying

Johnny you need to reevaluate some things if you can’t believe and empathize with the fact that me and tons of other people genuinely love music like that. Gratification isn’t a science lol

That type of music is brain rot to YOU. To me, though yeah often predictable, music like that has saved my life
