Do you not listen to progressive metal anymore? Are bands like Between the Buried and Me, The Contortionist, Baroness all mediocre? All three of those bands had crazy good releases.
You're changing, Reaper. |

Hip-hop has, frankly, been more "progressive" in recent years. There's tons of exciting things going on with hip-hop production. I like the Baroness album(s). If I went to 40 albums it'd have landed in the 40-31 area. |

Too often im reminded of: <iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/nV0GI8FkJBc" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> IMO, the vocalist sounds just like Wes Willis. |
I know it's not necessarily in your musical spectrum, but I absolutely loved WIXIW by Liars. Great album, if you're into Radiohead knock-offs.

No, the first time I heard it I thought of Wesley Willis, too. But it's still really, really ****ing good. |

OK, I won't go nearly as in-depth as Reaper, but my top 5 are:
5. Cloud Nothings - Attack on Memory 4. Jack White - Blunderbuss 3. Kendrick Lamar - good kid, m.A.A.d city 2. Frank Ocean - Channel ORANGE 1. Death Grips - The Money Store / No Love Deep Web (I'm not cheating by putting the two together. Money Store would have taken the top spot alone, but I personally can't separate the two albums.) |
Ok ok. So I dove into death grips a bit more last night. I watched an interview and some live videos.
I now see WHY people are intrigued by this group. It IS different. I'm not a fan of the vocals at all though. Imagine if he was a great lyricist and had much better flow. |

If you listen to it for a few minutes, it sounds like abrasive noise. After 20 minutes, it becomes almost meditative and trance-inducing... in a really brutal way. |
My children now shout/sing/chant in their best Stef voice, "I eat PUDDING!" to the tune of "I've Seen Footage."
