Wayne Coyne vs. MC Ride

Who is the better musician?

Methinks they are both complete and utter HACKS who have never made anything worth listening

Damn...

No one likes you jar jar your opinions are shit

I think they both have annoying voices and awful lyrics. wayne is black though so I choose ride

Coyne is the better musician, but the worst asshole on the planet. "Clouds Taste Metallic" and "Soft Bulletin" are masterpieces.

I'm gonna go with Wayne seeing as how he seems slightly less autistic. I saw Death Grips live and Ride literally screams and throws himself around the stage just to cover up that he doesn't contribute anything worthwhile to their sound.

This!

I kind of ended up there on accident. I could see the stage from outside and was wondering if it some some kind of strange performance art exhibition.

Damn...

I get that the token black guy and vocal component would naturally become the icon under which a band identified, but I really feel like he's is just dead weight in Death Grips current configuration.

Those two other guys could kick him out and hone their sound into something much more worthwhile without him screaming nonsense over all over their production work.

Wait til Ride puts out more music.

lol are you guys fucking serious?

do you not realize how drastically different death grips would sound if they had a different vocalist?

I'm saying they should have no vocalist at all.

yea that's worked out before really well
as shown in fashion week and interview 2016
aka mediocre instrumental albums 1 and 2

Which Wayne Coyne are we talking about, the original one that died in 2009, or the doppelganger that's currently fronting the Flaming Lips?

Ok well Fashion Week is hardly demonstrative of equal parts drums and electronic production. Similar story for Interview, but I'm saying more work in that soundscape could produce something more interesting than what they're doing now.

>MC Ride
>musician

>he wants le fast drummer and le shit producer to drop the most interesting dynamic of their band

Just listen to face tat. It's pretty much that.

Lemme ask you user, do you play drums or have any music production experience? 100% of the talent of this group lies between those two. What they do is not easy by any means.

I prefer Astrological Straits, fäm.

He's autistic; He has no talent! Lol, I'm so much better than autistic people :)

is this a joke

Being autistic hardly seems preferable to not having autism. This band is 2/3 music, 1/3 screaming homeless man. I'm saying it's high time to trim the fat.

ofc i do
zach hill zone doesn't play any drums on the albums, it's all boring production on andy's part. which isn't even exciting
mc ride literally carries the group; why do you think they stopped putting out stems?

Autism doesn't exist, it was fabricated in order to ruin people's lives.

You're right though, not having the diagnosis is a lot better than having the diagnosis.

>why do you think they stopped putting out stems?
Because their fans don't care for them.

If I'm not mistaken, the idea was for creative commons licensing to open them up for manipulation and tweaks in other music projects, but all they were used for was shitty meme/joke albums.

I disagree that it's boring production work. Just reading about the creative process behind The Money Store, he strikes me as a pretty bright guy.
...

>Just reading about the creative process behind The Money Store
>he thyinks that having a bloated and pretentisou creative process makes the end resulty good lmao

>bloated
Hardly

Programming compressed field recordings into a coherent rhythm is no easy task, and the results were pretty good.

>pretentious
This is not a valid criticism and just makes you sound like a dumbass.

just stop posting lmfao ur literally trying to justifiy a shitty producer and a dude who drums fast for the sake of drumming fast

why did you make this thread? Just to hate on Wayne?

>why do you think they stopped putting out stems?
they literally just put out bottomless pit stems

>trying to justify
???

It's called discourse. We don't have the same opinion, I think that's kind of expected on a music forum for music discussion. I'm not "justifying" anything because there's no pending incrimination against them. What does that even mean?

>[anything] for the sake of [anything]
Confirmed for based dumbass.

Why are you here if you don't even like music?

lmaooooo stay mad kid

...

Literally nobody ITT is mad. What are you talking about?

this guy is obviously mad lmfao are ui dENSE

Are you not used to dissent or something? Honestly, do you just assume that everyone that disagrees with you is angry?

ofc not u idiot but ur'e obviously mad as hell son loooooool

I like Coyne even though he can be a pretentious twat. I loved Yoshimi when I was a teen and have grown to enjoy Clouds, Bulletin and even their Fwends albums are pretty cool.

I've never been able to get that much into Death Grips. They have some decent albums and some tracks I enjoy, but I'm not a fan.

The band as a collective seems as pretentious as Coyne. I also get the feeling Ride is unfit for society and would be homeless if he wasn't in a band.

I think you're just avoiding the point raised because you don't have any grounds for your criticism. That's how that works around here, right? If a conversation is over it just debates into "DUDE YOU'RE SO MAD LOL"?

Well ok, see ya.

>I also get the feeling Ride is unfit for society and would be homeless if he wasn't in a band.

he probably would kill himself

I want to hate wayne and his band for some reason but i just cant

you're cool user

For this argument, I think it's important to note Steven Drozd's importance for the Flaming Lips. I think he's the real force behind the Lips' sound.

Not to downsize Coyne's role, but I think the Lips wouldn't be the same without Drozd. But, on the other hand, they wouldn't be a group period without Coyne.

me 2 tbqh

This. Drozd GOAT.

I want to believe

Well sure, but in that case you should probably acknowledge that Hill is the mind behind Death Grips, or at least the mind behind its inception. So maybe we should be comparing Drozd and Hill?

Wayne's a really good frontman, and I think keeps them involved in psychedelic experiments, however agreed, Drozd is the "musical" guy in the Lips

MC Ride.
