I never thought I would live to see the day of a former SY member using auto-tune, but here we are. Thankfully beer can help erase this from memory. |

The end of "It's Dark Inside" reminds me of the end of "I Dreamed I Dream."
Overall, a fun listen! I'll likely come back to it. Go Kim. |

Believers sounds like nine inch nails. The LP is a critique of social media, where random blasts of melodically dead dated noise appear then disappear at the same frequency of tik tok videos. In that sense it is successful satire but having never used tik tok myself I don't care about the subject enough to listen to a whole album (especially when you consider pubs actually exist and require validation).

Glowing review on AllMusic:
https://www.allmusic.com/album/the-c...e-mw0004197870 I think it's safe to say most people on this thread will not agree with it...

I have only listened to half the album yet, but I'm really enjoying what I heard so far.

From Paste:
Welcome to Kim Gordon’s Collective The interdisciplinary artist and Sonic Youth co-founder talks about her new solo album, embracing hip-hop production, writers like Jennifer Egan and Rachel Kushner and the parallels between her visual art and music.

I'm baffled by the praise it is getting to be honest, I guess people are sick of social media and that in and of itself is somehow enough to satisfy. It can't be the beats people are enjoying because they sound like Nine Inch Nails, and not even the Downward Spiral NIN, we're talking 80's NIN when they were making that dated electro shit. I implore anyone to listen to the ear-grating intro car alarm sounding MeLoDy on bye bye and the Believers and try to deny it. Everyone here suddenly loving shitty 80's NIN?! and/or is it simply cool Kim fanboy-ism. Lastly, every time I hear auto-tune I can't help but cringe. It has to be said, auto-tune is the single worst thing to happen to music in the past 25 years* and here comes Kim, legendary queen of apathetic skronk somehow now channeling fucking CHER?! The producer of the record predominantly works with pop-trap artists which tells you everything you need to know really. *insert favourite shit band joke here. |

I really liked it, and I'm surprised music critics are giving it high reviews, all except the guardian I think? I really enjoy the combo of the trap beats and noisy guitar, and I think the wide use of trap beats is reflective on the album's theme. Trap music is all over social media or at least was at one point, so it makes sense why she used it. Plus, she has always liked hip - hop and rap music I think, so I'm glad she got to make her own!
I know it isn't for everyone tho, and thats ok!

The guardian review is fucking wank man. 2 out of 5. Only 2 measly paragraphs stating that the noise on the record is the problem because it drowns out Kim's vocals?! Tone fucking deaf review. The best part is the noise, fucks sake. Yes she's always loved hip-hop and cited it as therapeutic particularly when regarding T's transgressions so all power to her, but what Kim is doing now is not hip-hop. It's trap-Charli-xcx-pop and more importantly it sounds like 80's NIN but you haven't got the balls to address that .. |

I'm not super familiar with NIN so i cant say much on that. Idk I guess I've always just associated Trap with hip - hop too, idk anymore genre titles are confusing

That's OK - regardless of Kim's album's quality the guy was being a dick to you.

If people are somehow unfamiliar with a band that's been releasing music for 35 years then how is that my fault? Do me a favour. Are we to believe all of these reviewers are clueless NIN oscar baiters. Why don't you keep quoting conglomerate reviews instead of saying what you think? |

This sounds absolutely nothing like Pretty Hate Machine. There is fairly complex writing on that album and is the least noisy of anything Reznor's produced. It could have used a bit better production or mastering, but there are some gems on it.
He did step up the the noise and went towards a bit darker tone and content with the Broken EP, but is even better than the first album. Furthermost, Kim's latest sounds nothing like NIN. |

Denial. Well, isn't this boring. I've changed my mind. I love working out to Trents' firebrand electro bop with the douche bois. And as far as I'm concerned music did not officially begin until Cher released believe in 1998 taking the world by storm. It is completely normal for Kim to be influenced by these colossal titans of rock. Nothing to see here at all, moving on.

Also I'm pretty sure Trap music is adjacent to hip - hop.....
