Big Boi's album. Yay or Nay?



I would give it a B/B+. I like it better than his Speakerboxx album, but I didn't care for it overall. Definitely worth listening if you're already a fan.

gorilla vs bear core sounds awesome. As does zydecore.

I'm with you on using a subgenre as a descriptor to just help someone out who's never heard the band. It's an easy shorthand. I just hate when it becomes an argument over whether this band is truly authentic screamo. Who cares?

I kind of dig genre discussions in all forms of art. I think it's crucial in determining what is good or bad, or what the standards are.

I think this goes along with the search for those "perfect" forms or entities...

I've only heard a few tracks but I've liked what I've heard.
The Love Below > Speakerboxx IMO. But he seems to have done a nice job with this one.
Even though a BB album with no Dre is almost hard to wrap my mind around.

Technically 2010 since its a 2010 performance, but I had to share this Low Anthem video... the use of cellphones to create a sound loop is so cool...

not sure if anyone is a fan, but Menomena's new album is streaming. LINK

this is my first album of theirs that i have listened to, but one of their side projects (Ramona Falls) was one of my favorite albums of '09. I am only two songs in on the stream, but both tracks were great. I have high hopes for the rest of it.

Listening to it now and it sounds pretty good so far. I've discovered so much music in this thread it's absurd

People are going crazy over the new arcade fire, but I think it's pretty boring

I've only heard one song off this album, so I don't know if it's "kick arse" worthy yet, but the song is pretty good.

Versus - Invincible Hero

Justin Townes Earle's new one is good

I never see the band Real Estate mentioned in these hipster music threads. I like their sound a lot.
