the retard generation maybe

what's the best album of the next generation?

That's not mac demarco's salad days

>current generation
what did he mean by this

Not even as good as New Album or Noise by Boris

more people should listen to this

who knows the concept of generations is retarded

I pinpoit this album as the paradigm of the time of the absolute destruction of this board. When you see people liking this trash here, saying it is the best album of the current generation, you know this is absolutely destroyed.

why do people like tame impala so much? they're literally nothing but revivalism

i bet youre a fun person irl...

>they're literally nothing but revivalism
This isn't true at all though. They're 50% revivalism and 50% modern electronic production wankery. I think it turns out to be pretty good.

Why does revivalism piss you off so much anyways?

they had electronics in the 60s/70s, bud

Yeah but they didn't have modern electronic production wankery in the 60s/70s

Only easily accessible DAWs combined with faster computers can do that

Imagine thinking this

silver apples

Silver Apples are primitive as fuck compared to even Innerspeaker in terms of electronic production wankery, and Tame Impala only got more electronic as their career went on.

>what did he mean by this

It's the best album for people born between 2010 and now.

Man the reissue cover to MPP looks awful

Off thineselves.

>compared to even Innerspeaker in terms of electronic production wankery,
um, phasing, flanging, reverb, effects pedals etc were all available then too even synthesizers....

Yeah and even on Innerspeaker Kevin is doing more than just the things you mentioned there.

Currents is current of generation

he got it

i lol'd. but even MPP is starting to feel dated already... the drum/bass mixing is good but the aesthetic is (ironically) kind of dry in 2016. Cool sounds but tired in some spots. Still amazing songwriting, though; i just think geologist should drift away from the 404 [or the 555 or whatever he's using]

on the other hand, Lonerism still sounds like a million bucks [and thanks to fridmann, better than Currents desu] and probably will for another 5 years. if you can't figure out why it's your loss, but you really should listen and hear what i'm saying-- the album really ain't a slog; i mean, this is only the best album of our generation because the songs are all amazing. impeccable structures, huge dynamic range within songs, immersive psychedelic textures, a ridiculous amount of hooky riffs, and heavy exploratory instrumental passages abound... the combination doesn't get old for me. if you hate the fact kevin mostly sings about himself you may not like the album but it honestly makes the whole thing better for me

not sure why i just wrote out this defense. i wouldn't admit to most people that I actually love this album this much. but i do

Fuck off

This

Currents > Lonerism > *Small powergap* > Innerspeaker
(C narrowly beats L out but it does)

like what for example? he talked about trying to confuse people by making the guitar sound like synths or vice versa because it had an interesting effect on the music, and other than using synths and modern day pedals and switches hes not doing much more. even on lonerism he uses a sequencer and loops, but those were all available in the 60s as well..........

I still say MPP because it speaks for almost every popular music style/genre/community today, from indie music to mainstream pop (My girls, summertime clothes) to experimental music (lion in a coma, guys eyes). Lonerism, while good, only represents a small fraction of whats going on in music nowadays (psych revivalism)

MPP is just a modern day Smile/Pet Sounds, its not as experimental as you think just shoving a whole bunch of shit in your face at once. its a very clean and accessible kind of weird just like the beach boys

Lonerism is just a modern day Revolver, its not as experimental as you think just shoving a whole bunch of shit in your face at once. its a very clean and accessible kind of weird just like the beatles

...

The generation that exists right now i.e everyone that is alive at the moment. I dunno.

>guys eyes
>experimental

hahaha the beach boys/brian wilson was already experimenting with stacking vocals with lots of reverb and echo, MPP is not that experimental

because is an absolute garbage genration mate

>Guys Eyes
>"clean and accessible kind of weird"

the way they layer the vocals on guys eyes are way more complicated and hard to figure out than that

complicated =/= better

Well it is better maybe not because its complicated but its better imho

i respect your opinion

And if you go back further you can find something similar to that, mpp might not be insanely experimental but it still has psychedelic and experimental qualities that make it stand out among a lot of records that came out around that time

haha you mean the CURRENTS generation right?
