As a DG fan, the thing that I think sets them apart from other experimental rap groups is I think they add abrasiveness really well without making it hard to listen to. The lyrics are very poetic and that endears me to a lot of songs too. A lot of the instrumentals are more like hard and industrial beats rather than glitchy ones. They’ve used glitchy beats but its not like they do it that often either

    I think a better take on the album is when I heard a dude say *Dark Side of The Moon is arguably the greatest album of all time but not the greatest Pink Floyd album* and it somehow makes so much sense to me.

      Definitely funnels back into the "If it's accessible, is it good?" argument that circles around art.
      I believe Dark Side of the Moon is great BECAUSE it is accessible: it works as an elegant primer into prog that is not initially palatable.
      There is a culmination to their work where you can start feeling its ruminations within Meddle, and then it continues with WYWH, Animals, and The Wall.
      I like to think of Dark Side as the entrance to the Roman Coliseum: yes, it's grand, but the space opens up in ways you can scarcely imagine.

    I think DSOTM is the best album of all time, it's just my opinion but... It's not about the band that made it, each song that is in it, that single guitar solo in Time or the instrumentals, for me, that album is a life lesson as a whole. You could listen to it 20, 30 years in the future and still have goosebumps in Great Gig, or On The Run. It's a timeless album, and beside of that, it's musically a masterpiece as well, full of emotion, passion, heart and soul. Ignoring what I said before and focusing on each songs, Torry's voice performance in Great Gig, that guitar solo in Time that was made in the first try and improvised, the emergency of On The Run, or the loneliness and soul of Us and Them. I would hate Pink Floyd and even Rock in general, but if I gave that album a try, oh boy, wouldn't regret a single second.

      Ya I would agree with that, and a lot of time I see that pendulum swing back and forth. For me, that's like Nirvana, the hype was so big, all I ever heard was Nirvana is the greatest band, or greatest 90s band, etc. when personally I didn't even think they were the best grunge band from Seattle. But then the hype gets so big that it becomes "uncool", so then I would hear how overrated they were or how they're not even a very good band, and I thought the same thing they're not really overrated just overhyped, and now I see it swinging back the other way, especially with the younger generation discovering them

  • @wyatt_goodwin

    The reason why I think blonde is one of the best albums of our generation is because of the way frank introduces his emotions. For its time the style of prediction and use of effects was very unique for the major art world. The way the songs sound and the almost liquid texture I believe really capture what it feels like to be In a period of existential dread. I am also a fan of the points and slight references he makes on the album. He talks about relationships struggles, drug addiction, technology addiction, loneliness and isolation, the fear of losing people and learning to let go, I also have the feeling that he was inspired by 2pacs message about helping others and making sure that everyone has a fighting chance. At the end of the album frank talks about trying to let go of all his worries because he realizes that he can’t fix everything. “ I’m just a guy not a god “
