ITT: the best album from an artist/group

ITT: the best album from an artist/group

...

Oh come on. If you think that is better than 3 Feet, you're lying to yourself

...

3 feet higher is magnitudes greater
still a good album, under appreciated due to existing in 3ft's shadow
samples, sketches not as good

...

objectively wrong

Stakes is High and Black are better

...

Hippies detected.

3 Feet is good but Dead has better songs on average. It's darker but has more substance to it.

>substance
what does this buzzword mean nowadays
I haven't kept up

wow you sure rebutted him

Favorite post rock album, too.

...

am i not allowed to ask for clarification on buzzwords

my condolences
Exhaust > Godspeed
the canadian post-rock scenes have much more to offer than Godspeed
Do May Say Think is also superior, although this opinion may be less popular

...

You are out of your fucking mind.
To me, Godspeed is the most original from the Canadian post rock scene. At least as far as Antennas is concerned.

...

...

>most original
what
univers zero were doing godspeed better and decades prior

Agreed

Masterpiece.

ARE YOU DUMB? Woah! I just started browsing here but you guys have some very shit taste. Sorry to put it like that, but if you really think The King of Limbs is better than Ok Computer then you may need to listen to it again!

By a landslide yes. Can't beat Madlib production. I hope Bandana comes soon.

I'm ashamed to admit that I've never heard these guys before. I'll have to check them out. But until then, I keep my stance. Lift Your Skinny Fists Like Antennas To Heaven is an essential post rock release and one of the best in the genre.

Holy fucking shit are you some sort of special retard

Exhaust are cool and all but they don't have shit on Godspeed. As much as there are some very cool bands on Constellation the most popular ones are also the best for a reason.

And fucking Univers zero? Are you fucking kidding me? I love those guys but they sound absolutely nothing like GY!BE.

Take your garbage elsewhere, tripshit

Agreed. But again, still haven't given Univers Zero a proper listen.

...

...

See my previous comment! Woah!

TPAB>GKMC

exhaust tones down the grandstanding of godspeed while retaining political undertones and amplifying the only thibg they were good at: timbre manipulation and rhythmic grooves

>they sound absolutely nothing like GY!BE
they (GY!BE) are the poor man's univers zero in their use of guitars in lieu of more appropriate string instruments (in which traditional tock instruments are used to the effect of chamber music with added dissonance from the electronic nature of the guitars)

stop defending your boring, trite nonsense and listen to music for people out of middle school

Holy fucking shit you're the worst trip I've ever seen, and that's coming from someone who used to be a trip

But Godspeed were literally never about rhythmic grooves you fucking retard. Timbre manipulation was the point, as well as the concept of collective improvisation and playing off a skeletal concept. Exhaust do neither of the latter due to the fact that half the time their shit is tape manipulation and concrete. If anything they're a poor man's SFTF, plus a few extra elements not present in either band.

But there are fucking dozens of bands that do that. Are King Crimson now similar to GY!BE because I Talk to the Wind happens to replace guitars with lush orchestration (albeit in the form of a mellotron)? Are Art Zoyd also now similar to GY!BE, considering that they are extremely similar to Univers zero? Aranis?

Have you actually heard a single Univers zero album? They rarely if ever use guitars. The Magma influence on that shines through. Whereas Godspeed literally have 3 dedicated guitarist versus 2 dedicated string players (actually 1 considering Norsola was not present for the reunion).

Oh nice. one moment you say the point of GY!BE is timbral manipulation, next you say it's playing chamber music with rock instrumentation. Fucking retard

Oh nice, now you're going to use weak ad hominem in an attempt to offend me.

The only offensive thing here is your sheer fucking stupidity.

...

Get yer ears checked, m8. Buhloon Mindstate is best De La

stop focusing on the trip, it lessens your credibility

>never about rhythmic grooves
"about" is irrelevant. I do not care about their intentions. I care about what worked for them, and what didn't.

>collective improvisation
which they were awful at

you have nothing

>have you ever actually heard
I've listened to all of them pretty extensively

>you say the point
only you have said this. please respond to what I have said, not what you wish i have said

>ad hominem
that's not ad hominem
you don't know what ad hominem is
don't namedrop fallacies if you don't know what they mean

So this is all about you you you you you now? Good job, you just proved that all trips are self-absorbed attention whores.

They are awful at collective improvisation? Come on, you're joking right? Take those shit opinions out of here

I have much more to stand on than you, that's for sure

You certainly don't sound like it. You don't even address the fact that UZ rarely if ever use guitars. The only reason they are considered "rock music" is because of the Magma-influenced rhythm section.

>exhaust tones down the grandstanding of godspeed while retaining political undertones and amplifying the only thibg they were good at: timbre manipulation
>amplifying the only thibg they were good at: timbre manipulation
They. You mean Godspeed. So let's rewrite that
>amplifying the only thing GY!BE were good at: timbre manipulation

Your words, not mine.

You implied that I was in middle school since you claimed that GY!BE was music for people in middle school. If that isn't ad hominem nothing is.

Retarded tripshit

>you you you
settle down

>your words
good at != "the point"
as per your definition

exposing your middle schooler tendencies does not ad hominem make
ad hominem requires a character attavk to be the crux of an argument
you would likely know this if you had finished a high school level rhetoric class

you seem upset that I called a band you like boring trite
I am sorry you take the achievements of others so heavily onto your heart

I like how not a single word of this post has anything to do with GY!BE being similar to Univers zero.

In all essence that basically exposed this as an attempt to bait. First you use a statement intended to anger, then you slowly boil it down to semantics and personal attacks.

Good job, you played yourself. I'm done here

yes, came here to post this

...

GY!BE fanboys are hilarious

personal attacks like shitposting conatantly about using a tripcode right

people don't want to discuss things with people who compose themselves like you- go figure

Buhloone Mindstate is definitely their best. The production is some of Prince Paul's smoothest shit, and Pos had some really good bars
