Feels kind of one-note despite the band's tight performances and exciting combination of extreme music styles.

6/10
Y'all know this is just my opinion, right? - Hudba
This is honestly one of my favorite records of the year so far. Glad you took the time to review it
fantano didn’t like my current aoty, so i think it’s okay that he gets a lot of hate, and could use a lil more actually.
Genuinely though, it sucks that most people aren’t going to give this a try after this review. He didn’t even talk about how the record is continuous except for 90% of the runtime, which is where I think the feelings of sameness come from.
Yeah this might end up being my AOTY. I’m truly obsessed.
He said a lot of the influences at the start@urkoma
Same. It's absolutely brilliant. If it's derivative name what it sounds like. Less than 5 minutes is slacking
i got the vinyl right yesterday night from the singer... they played an amazing show in Modena... here in Italy. This record is one of my favorite in this 2024
6/10 oh so this IS an instant classic huh?
Yes
Yes
Yes
Cal continues to be the MVP of the “theneedledrop” channel.
That is the plan
more like post-season 6 Spongebob of theneedledrop tbh
unfortunately the worst take of the year
His take on Plastic Death is even worse
Did not expect this review. Very cool
Been a fan of these guys since finding the Those That Left, Those That Remain EP while looking for new releases to spin on my college radio show in 2017. It’s really nice to see them getting so much attention now. Thanks for giving them the exposure!
I can’t believe this review is just Anthony saying “screamo time” for 5 minutes
It warms my heart to see Cal in more videos
Fantano i need a diaper change
fart tano doesn't associate with vewy smewwy peopwe UwU
dibs
dios mio
This fanbase is fucked lmao

REVIEW
MY M I X T A P E !
Fantano’s bias is showing again. If this album was never released, then you wouldn’t have rated it at all, but since it’s available to listen to on all platforms, you give it a score? Classic L from Dogthony Fartano
Wtf are these comments anymore bruh
@@vanillagorillaog Brain-dead NPCs who've never even tried to have an original thought in their lives.
He reviewed Yandhi tho
@@vanillagorillaogAt least he didn’t say he fell off
And if it was released he probably would’ve given it a 6/10 simply because it feels kind of one-note despite the band's tight performances and exciting combination of extreme music styles smh
Got the Lingua Ignota shirt on today are you OK Anthony?
This band rules
Loved this record, one of the harshest things i’ve heard. Surprised you didn’t like this or at least have runaway in your favorite tracks.
Yeah nearly 15 years of watching this dude...and his tastes regarding extreme music in particular still have absolutely no rhyme or reason. Thought this would be yellow flannel material haha
RIP Anzio, Long live Frail Body
Loving Cal's presence lately
Sorry, but this album's incredible
REVIEW CINDY LEE THE PEOPLE(me) WANT A DIAMOND JUBILEE REVIEW
Very nice peak! Yeah!
I actually listened to it for the first time today, and love it.
I want a review too.
He said on Twitter he’s “slowly digesting it.” Hoping for that sweet 10
@@SleepyBoi_9000 backwards 10 incoming
hell nah, it's at least an 8
completely agree
Thank you for reviewing this, it’s been one of my favorite records of the year and I think it’s an improvement from their last effort.
Please review the new Locrian album :)
YES LETS GO IT DESERVES A 9 BUT YOU REVIEWED IT LETS GO
Still feel cool hearing about these guys after seeing them in a Kalamazoo, MI house show years ago.
God it's nice to have Cal back so often.
Mr. Fantano sir, I kindly request you perhaps consider reviewing the newest album from Australian band Eunuchs. I think there are some really great things happening on that record, some that your audience may also find comparable results.
Also I've always wondered your thoughts on Gaza, the late 2000s hardcore group. I always come back to their second album, very visceral.
I'll try it. :O
NO ABSOLUTES IN HUMAN SUFFERING
Thank you for putting me onto this, great album
Good quality stuff, good vibes, quite beautiful. It all flows together, I can’t separate a single song, and it’s a vibe when driving. I was at the album release show, and look forward to them continuing to blow up and make great things.
REVIEW Townes Van Zandt self titled album from 1969
Please review "This Could Be Texas" by English Teacher, it's amazing. It's probably a top 3 album of the year so far. They're a new british band, from the new wave started by groups like BCNR and black midi, you should absolutely check them out if you haven't already
You’re going to be reviewing the new Full of Hell record right? Drops next Friday the 26th
You’ve started being creative with the thumbnails lately, Melon
Toured with these guys
Awesome to see them get reviewed on this channel
How does he decide what records to put up on the shelf behind him? Surprised he has Ghost.
Can’t wait for the Nia Archives review, her new album has to be among my favorites of the year so far
I love these guys so excited more people are covering the new album !!!!! ❤️❤️❤️
I mean...just getting this review is cool. Take that as a win! Keep making art and those out there that appreciate (of which there are many), will continue to appreciate! I will always try and catch Fail Body live in Chicago. You should do the same.
So Happy Cal is back ❤
REVIEW GRAVEHUFFER DEPART FROM SO MUCH EVIL!!
Rockford IL baby!
Great review, I just don't understand why you went on a tirade about how flowers aren't real and that they're a government scheme halfway through the video...
I’m still new to the genre so maybe this is a good introductory album? Cuz I love it!
You'll probably love Republic of Dream. They only have 3 songs on spotify (from their split with beau navire) but they have more on bandcamp!
id recommend to be gentle, roman candle, youth novel, ostraca and pageninetynine for more stuff like this
@@screamsbecomethewind to be gentle real
Please review Something Beyond Kindess by SBK!! He’s a young grime mc but he’s just released a nearly entirely self-produced album that experiments with new genres- it’s truly worth the listen!
saw them in houston in march right before they released this
Fucking hysterical I’ve been watching you for so long you’re so good at this
FANTANO WE NEED THE MOUNT KIMBIE REVIEW
tbh i wish i enjoyed this album more. i was so stoked to listen to this because i love A Brief Memoriam and that record got me through a rough patch, but this one just didnt stick with me that much. It's def good, just not super memorable ig
Agreed
A Brief Memoriam is a tale of Lowell’s grieving for his dead mother, so of course it’s naturally more emotionally resonant.
Haven’t listened to this one yet, but I have no expectations of liking it more than ABM. Still a 5-6/10 is ridiculously low in my humble opinion.
@@BradsGonnaPlayHow can you say it's a low score and yet u haven't even listened to it yet??
@@perhaps1094 no idea what you’re talking about, I quite literally didn’t score the album anywhere in my comment. I said I’d probably like it less than ABM because that album was special to me and that Anthony giving this new one a 5-6 was way too low since I’m a big fan/friend of the band.
Gouge Away - Deep Sage please!!
I love this album in its entirety but I feel like that is what throws me off about it. It needs to be an entire listen through or not no listen at all but in my mind it’s like a 8.5 out 10 album
Do the new Bob Vylan record (Humble as the sun) pls!! I love it curious what you'd think.
Wish you reviewed more metal albums. You don't do nearly as many and unfortunately miss on so many releases (ex: Pharmacist from Japan, who were making a mini wave)
Great album review.
Day 1 of asking for a re-review of Cancer 4 Cure because its not a 6
so this is not a re-upload of Converge's Blood Moon review?
Great album cover, but damn Bannon really running out of ideas
Post-screamo eh? I'm sold lol I need to know what this is
Its a loose therm i guess. First time I've heard it it was to refer to post rock infused screamo bands (envy, funeral diner) but recently people are also grouping screamo bands with post metal and blackgaze influence. So idk.
I like your shirt Anthony.
Fantano do Dreamwell's In My Saddest Dreams, I Am Beside You
Please
I wonder if Mr. Melonhead has ever been a victim of emoviolence himself
Come on, it deserved better
You’re wrong and here’s why,
This album isn’t any more “one note” than most Skramz albums and I’d argue that this is stylistically more advanced and formally intricate than most bands in the scene today. The lyrical content is utterly devastating and the production’s burying of the vocals is almost a symbol of the the vocalist trying to remain guarded during a moment of extreme vulnerability.
Completely irrelevant to the video but give the album Hometowns by Rural Alberta Advantage a listen, the drumming is so good
Cool I’ll check out the album
What accent is Cal doing? is it a Brooklyn accent?
Man got the DAMN vinyl out what??
Next review: "Loud Arriver" - Sonja
Kelltronica next please 🙏
should review liana flores’ ep recently
Please check out the new darko singles
Amen dunes review
agreed
Who out there clipping all these recent Cal cameos?
Really glad you reviewed this, as I'm sure it's going to make people check them out regardless, but this is a rare L in your heavy reviews, in my opinion... Screamo, yes, but I personally have to strain my ears to hear anything to do with post-metal, let alone black metal... And I have to say I slightly checked out of the review when you said the record lacked dynamics. It's a shame you didn't reference the lyrical subject matter, as I think it explains why it sounds so consistently anguished, notwithstanding the genre(s) the trio inhabit.
Review Young Genius by Lil Mabu, it's a generational album
no way i didnt think this would get a review
What a world we live in where Cal Chuchesta doesn't have his own channel and Fantano has two.
Fantano review lil mabu, young genius
IF THIS WAS TO PIMP A BUTTERFLY YOU WOULD HAVE GIVEN IT A 10
for me this album is a 9
We’ve been experiencing some peak cal content lately. Sit back and soak it up, folks.
Brutal and powerful sounding album but it's very derivative, sounds a lot like Converge with not as good songs
Maggie Rogers
a SIX???
Hi
CHICAGIO GANG LET'S GOOOOO'
first time listening to this band. it's black metal knocked loose
Couldn't possibly disagree with this review more 😊
Also wow only 4 minutes you really should have just made this a shorts review lol
If this was Hood Hottest Bouquet you'd give it an 8
Personally, this is the closest thing to Sunbather without being called blackgaze. Also it's easy a 9.
If it was called “To pimp an artificial butterfly,” it definitely would’ve gotten a ten
Bummer! It's my AOTY so far and I thought you'd dig it because the songwriting is way better than average skramz. I'll say it feels a bit monotonous at first listen, but the layers come out upon repeated listens.
It’s okay to be wrong, Anthony.
melon based Lingua t-shirt
if this album was called vultures, you'd give it a 9/10
Anthony, you accidentally spelled “English Teacher” as “Frail Body,” and “This Could Be Texas” as “Artificial Bouquet.” Thought I’d let you know
This is how I found out that album came out.
@@Brokenscam I’m actually very glad this was informative for some. Amazing album
Fantano has a frail mind
rockford!
Review Tatyana - it’s over
Fantano just gave it that score cos they said the world IS a cold dead place
All cool man but i am still in kind of dilema what happend to Alantutorial chanel damn it's been 10 years since we heard of him
LOL sometimes it's impossible to know what Anthony will like. On one hand he'll give an hour long black metal noise song a 10, yet this is one note and 6/10? I can't even with this guy right now
Most songs here are black metal noise
Anthony are we getting a review for Necrot’s new album Lifeless Birth? Please please please please please please please please please please please please please Please please please please please please please please please please please please please
Ok now review the alchemist
6/10... wow. For me, this is aoty material
Review more screamo.
Although I'm worried you don't listen to that much screamo based on your "vocals too far back in the mix" comment.
New infant island and ostraca were amazing
varg2tm review? 🥺
