>she

I've got Amazon Prime, so I'm just listening to the album there.

some of the most straightforward and hilariously bad lyrics I have ever heard.

in typical contrarian fashion, Sup Forums lacking any wit confuses criticism with having an interesting opinion.

Despite the raving reviews this is getting, everyone is going to continue claiming it's bad here.

Eat shit.

So, you think this album deserves the great reviews it has received?

When did Antony become a full on tranny anyway? For the longest time he was a he, though a very androgynous eh.

learn to read

Sorry, your words weren't as plain as anohni's

I'm listening to 4 Degrees right now and it's really not that special, certainly not something I'd think would be on a "great" album unless it's an outlier. Not bad but it's just, like, weak as fuck.

she's been openly trans for over a decade
where have you been

Maybe it's just me, but I loled at the "rhinos and all the big mammals" line

Added to the "Essential Cuck-core" playlist I like to listen with my wife's son

Dude I can't tell if people just like this as a joke or what. It's a big fat white man who dresses like a lady, sings like Big Freedia, and writes like a preteen. Seriously "I want to see the animals die in the trees." Like wow, are we too stupid for similes and metaphors that Antony just resorts to sarcasm. Or maybe he really does want to see them die.

This is some trans-retardation shit.

in a p4k thread last week, i said they only give bnm's to blacks, women or transgenders. i had no idea what or who anohni was then, but it makes me feel like the smartest person ever now

Yeah, you did very well.

I'm not even going to listen to this out of principle.

Come on, you don't like comedy gold?

the most interesting aspect of it for me is that its coming from a trans woman in 2016 (a big year for trans visibility and discussion in mainstream media). musically its ok . similar sounds and structures im used to on sort of electronic pop releases. kind of underwhelming from opn and hudmo tho. shes a good singer and its produced well. but good in the traditional sense of it. not striking me as anything new in that regard. its important only because it raises the issues of 2016 in a sound that sounds very 2016. meaning it probably wont age well.

Judging from those lyrics, it would very well be a metaphor. Maybe people against trans lifestyles are called animals and to see them die in the trees could be the desire to see them publicly hung the same way niggers were

So basically SJWs are the new KKK

Why does it matter if it is coming from a trans person? Music shouldn't get bonus points because the musicians are "oppressed."

listen to "4 Degrees"

The song is about global warming.

so context doesn't matter in music?

Listen to the song. I highly doubt that it is that deep.

However, good job figuring out how to use that sentence as a metaphor.

I don't know about this album but apparently this person has worked with Current 93? That's pretty cool

Oh okay, in that case that poster was definitely right, it almost definitely sounds like sarcasm as she's taking the position of someone who could care less about the environment

Idk, haven't listened to this album but already it sounds stupid

Tell me how I can use Antony being trans to understand the album.

Yeah I'm not against socially-aware socjus type music as a rule but this seems like a really tiring album to sit through. I really don't want to hear about how fucked up racism or homophobia is or listen to whining about "the patriarchy" and "ecofeminism." It's just everywhere online, whether left or right wing and it's just become so fucking boring. Definitely not sitting through an entire album of this bullshit.

Why are black people so inferior?

Antony is white.

Australia

Apparently Antony has been there, too. Youtube "Antony and the Aboriginals."

That's not what i asked

There is literally nothing on this album lyrically that is about being trans.

Seriously? Then why the hell is it being brought up by either side?

social messages in music aren't necessarily bad, this manages to get the point across while remaining nuanced and entertaining

youtube.com/watch?v=nWYlu14VeFE

Because they are taught that being successful and working hard is going against your race and "acting white." Sad, mane.

man, I don't know.

This thread is just about how hilarious the lyrics are. They sound like they were written my a 6th grader doing a school report on Obama and terrorism

because it's 2016 and everyone has an unhealthy obsession with trannies

kek

This is like the only reasonable comment about this album I've seen on this website lol. For me personally, I just find the music kind of heavy. Like, I don't entirely disagree with her politics, and it isn't necessarily a bad thing to make political music, but I feel like I couldn't get into this for the same reason I couldn't get into TPAB.

Like I'm hearing this album being described as "the most profound protest record in decades" and I'm straight up not fucking buying this bullshit. Yeah fair enough it's definitely a protest record but none of the lyrics on it are even slightly "profound", they're about as on-the-nose and almost as safe as possible, "bombing innocent people is bad" "global warming sucks" "political tension is bad sometimes" there's a literally a tune on here where it's mostly just repeating "never again, give birth to violent men." There isn't shit on this album that's thought-provoking, fucking hell, why is it getting such rave reviews? Can't be the music because from what I've heard there isn't a great hook to be found.

Because trans

precisely because it's zeitgeisty, nothing more. Music critics like to feel like they're part of something bigger, not just glorified shills soon to be replaced by a flood of amateurs.

I'm just can't get past the cringey lyrics. I'm all for politically driven music and I don't mind the vocals, but damn there is no depth here. It is the archetypical tumblrina faux intellect that really just boils down to sarcasm. Nothing notable or thought-provoking. The modern feminist results in nothing more than whiny victimhood and this LP is their anthem.

I mean I don't want to say that it's only receiving attention because Anohni is trans, but the praise is way overblown for something so immediately "decent." It's dealing with social justice issues which is absolutely incredibly trendy regardless of what anybody thinks, and Anohni IS trans and I really do believe that this stuff is utterly second-rate and it's being praised by the media for all the wrong reasons. Not that that's even remotely important to me, all the power to Anohni, but I'm just expressing what I think and what I think is this is totally mediocre.

>The modern feminist results in nothing more than whiny victimhood and this LP is their anthem.

Damn...

Perfect.

That's the thing, there are definitely problems with the world, but nobody wants to try and fucking solve them or do anything about it. It's much easier to sit back and go "yeah there's stuff wrong with the world agh! I'm socially aware!" but at the end of the day nothing new or interesting has been brought up or said.

I don't even think that's it, i think you have to be an SJW to get support. There are non sjw trans people and i see them getting shit on quite a bit by SJWs for not being with them. Same with gays, women, and minorities as well actually.

I think what we have here is a case of closed-inclusion (a social effect caused by liberal leanings).

Instead of physically doing something about social matters and injustices, there's passive activism in the form of tweets, hashtags, and other online activism that doesn't actually do anything for the victims or cause at large but it categorizes them as the sole baby, thereby rendering helpless and in return the activists can sleep at night knowing they did something to help.

Why fight legislature when you can just listen to a trans-made album?

aoty material

Which is exemplified by all the 18 year old communists who live in the 'burbs and are totally middle class yet believe they can somehow criticize capitalism from their little ivory tower.

understanding the problems is the first path
not everyone have the power to change laws

The music is good.

The lyrics are horrendous.

Good instrumentals
Good voice
Some of the worst and most instantly dating lyrics I've ever heard
I generally don't pay attention to lyrics when I listen to music but once I saw the ones for some of the shit on this album I legitimately can't listen to it anymore, they're that bad

nice png there bro

This album is in exact common with pic related. No real artistic integrity, very mediocre music, relies solely on the "message" it's trying to spread; while critics overpraise it because of said message and not because of the actual music

Capitalism is killing people. If we actually shared with each other, healthcare could be free. I've seen people die on the streets because they couldn't afford any healthcare, I've seen it with my own two eyes. I'm sure most people who live in big cities have seen it. Just the other day I saw a man laying against the sears tower and he had a bad case of gangrene. His leg was literally rotting off of him and he looked white as a ghost. I'm sure he died shortly after I saw him. On the same street I saw a bunch of wealthy fucks wearing furs and pearls carrying starbucks in their hands. They walked right by him without a second thought. It was if he was invisible. I can't lie.. It really shakes me to see stuff like that. Socialism would help end a lot of the unfairness in our society. It'd help put an end to unfair situations like that. I know you guys will call me names but I'd rather be a decent human than some pseudo intellectual capitalistic pig.

production is good lyrics are garbage nothing .heavy about them. why are we still stuck on this lets raise awareness shit
all my friends just talk about awareness and when i ask them when are we gonna actually protest and riot for our rights they just mumble and go back whining on twitter

tpab is actually good tho. it's a little overwrought but there are some killer moments on it

That's all sjwtumblrites can do, they're good at complaing, but when it comes to doing actual change they're nowhere to be found except on social media

lost some respect for opn

literally all he and hudmo did were the instrumentals ya dip

Good writing about music there, Tex

Oh I don't think capitalism is a good thing by any means, I absolutely thing modern western society is abhorrent in its treatment of the poor and marginalized, but I also absolutely do not think that people sitting around on their arses talking about the uprising and patting themselves on the back for being so forward-thinking are going to help anybody, and in case you haven't noticed communism has resulted in fucking enormous amounts of death itself, and whether you want to bring up how Stalin wasn't TROO COMMUNISM, or Pol Pot, or Mao Zedong, the absolute fact of the matter is many times communism has been implemented the civilians it was supposed to protect were utterly and completely abused far worse than anybody imagined. I just can't abide by people who live cushy lives in a nice neighborhood and have all their shit paid for by their family trying to explain all of this terror away by their narrow and uninformed world view.

I'll take the dubs but that's all

Except those dictators' policies weren't communism you dingus

So what did you do to help him other than remember the moment so you could post it on the internet?

Do you think that throwing money at a crazy person is actually going to solve anything? They person you "saw" could have had "free" healthcare at the emergency room. An ambulance would have come and picked him up, then he would have gotten treatment at the hospital. Sounds like you didn't do shit either, except pretend like you care so you can feel superior.

Don't worry, she's gonna change up her story and talk about how she helped, I guarantee it.

i love "drone bomb me" and "why you seperate me from the earth" the rest...not sure.

and the lyrics on "drone bomb me" are awesome.

Yeah okay the fact is they presented as having communist ideals and gained power and millions died as a result, clearly it can be exploited in horrendous ways. I'm not saying that I'm actually against communism or socialism but I'm not gonna pretend that if it's implemented that a nice little social utopia will be created and everybody will be happy forever, the world does not work this way and people don't behave this way.

>"Blow me from the side of the mountain"
>"Blow me"

drone bomb my jewish boipussi

You guys can believe what you want but I sincerely gave the guy 20 bucks (I tucked it in his pocket) and walked away to some alley and had a good cry. I know the money wasn't going to do shit but I didn't know what else to do. He was unconscious.

kek good one.

Good one? What do you mean?

he means you did a good job user :)

Fucking lol

Can you guys enlighten me? What are you supposed to do in that situation? The guy looked like he was on deaths door and his leg was fucked beyond repair. What do you do? Call 911?

I think you are supposed to cry. It's the only way to help, afaik.

i used to feel sorry for people like him then i realized that person fucked up somewhere in life and this is their punishment

Nah I'm not involved in this I just thought it was a funny post

No, you did all you could do. You are a truly unique and helpful human bean

Yeah that's exactly what you should have done lol. Why give 20 dollars when it won't do shit? You could have rang a hospital, an ambulance, the police, a homeless shelter, fucking anything else than giving somebody dying of gangrene 20 dollars.

That's a really gross way to think user. What if he guy was mentally handicapped? Or everyone in his life had fucked him over?

I see your point. Now I feel really bad :( It was my first time in a city that big and the situation kind of overwhelmed me. Fuck

you smell his ass obviously

Volunteer at a homeless shelter or a soup kitchen or something if you want to help the homeless. What did slipping 20 bucks into the pocket of a guy who, in your own words, had his leg rotting off and was probably died that day? Like wtf was he going to do? Walk over to the grocery store and buy himself some neosporin?

We get it, you're not very smart. People who symphatize with socialist ideals tend to be naive, stupid and unpractical. You'll learn someday, we hope so.

>I see your point. Now I feel really bad :( It was my first time in a city that big and the situation kind of overwhelmed me. Fuck

Are you sure it wasn't just a crusty dude, passed out, wearing camo pants?

He's ded now user, gg
ebin

and what if he's rapists piece of shit? what if he was homophobic or racist?
i rather donate $20 to my fav band

I'd rather give my 20 bucks to you than a street man

you can't be serious

I 100% agree with this

Don't feel bad lol.
