Another Music in a Different Kitchen. I already know that Buzzcocks are going to become one of my favourite bands.

Indeed! ...Wait, no, you're not talking about this one:

 


Unfortunate, as the one you are talking about is music for mooks.

Mmmmmmm... now that's what I call black metal

Daughters - You Won't Get What You Want


 



I find this one to be massively overrated. Atmospherically it seems like it might go somewhere every now and then, but it's bogged down by the terribly one note vocal delivery. There also isn't much in the way of cohesion, it all works - but there's never a point that really clicked with me. All of the tracks just kind of drift along on their own. Their reverence of SWANS is quite evident on "Satan In The Wait" and "The Reason They Hate Me", which is much appreciated, because they at least seem to offer some interesting melodical stylings for a change. I feel like there's some good in there, but as a whole I just don't enjoy it that much.

Yeah. It’s fine, but is it great? I don’t think so. There’s nothing new here. It’s well done and everything, but Jesus... the hype is ridiculous.

Just shows you how starved the world is for quality higher-profile noise rock. Be the only game in town and you’ll end up on year-end lists.

It's a solid release, and an interesting turn of style for the band. I find Hell Songs and Canada Songs more dynamic and chaotic overall, back then the band was more on par w/ dudes like Dillinger Escape Plan or AIDS Wolf. With that in mind, I'd argue that YWGWYW is actually their most cohesive overall so I understand the hype.


I saw Daughters live w/ the Locust and Cattle Decapitation as a younger lad, and the singer accidentally spit into my mouth. What a lucky boy I was.

Constant craving, baby.

(Weird choice though. I don’t mind, but you don’t get to give people shit about liking Pearl Jam of whatever ever again. Fair warning.)

I like it, and yes it’s cohesive, but I don’t think there’s anything novel about it. It’s Daughters done very well. It’s not a masterpiece.

It does kick ass though.

Ben Frost - AURORA

Still vaporizes my brain in the best possible way.

(I know there are haters here... they can fuck off, not interested)

Fuck your false equivalence! That's not even apples and oranges you're comparing, it's apples and... malignant cysts.
