Random Music Talk CXXIX: Gump attends a concert - Page 45

Wow, I had not really ever tried Rate Your Music, but I think I'm going to. Happy to see that they have Hard Rock/Metal genres and it's not just the Pitchfork/Indie stuff that I'm not really into.

LemonMelon · 12-02-2021, 12:38 PM

Oh, they absolutely love metal over at RYM. I have to filter it out if I'm not in the mood for the genre because it takes up so much of the new year charts.

I'm glad I could put my Interference friends on to some good music this year. That's the 4th most important thing we do here, behind making fun of Bono's weight, spamming song title parodies and telling the world what we're smelling right now.

iron yuppie · 12-02-2021, 12:47 PM

Yeah the yearly ratings at RYM always have a few metal albums in the top 10.

Nice! That’s great because it’s really hard to find new metal albums on Apple Music because they always tend to recommend albums from older metal artists.

As if I didn't already love them:

For all who wanted an updated/Indie Hanukkah song.

I watched Jagged last night about Alanis Morrissette and the making of her album Jagged Little Pill. Good stuff! That album kicked fucking ass! Perfect is my favorite track, but of course, You Oughta Know, is the fucking shit as well! Lots of 5 Star tracks on JLP. Anyone else catch Jagged?

I have that saved on my DVR, have yet to get a moment to sit down and watch it. I'm very intrigued about it.

I really liked "Perfect", too. "Head Over Feet" is another favorite of mine from that album. I should listen to it again, it's been so long...

It clocks in at an hour and 37 minutes, so at least it wasn't long. Lol! I learned a lot about Alanis as well as the band that backed her for the tour that followed.
She went through a lot of shit before she became a "superstar".

Hard Drive #2 in Pitchfork’s beat songs of 2021. So happy for Cassandra Jenkins.

cobl04 · 12-07-2021, 04:45 AM

Couldn't be happier. It is an absolute masterpiece, comfortably my favourite song of the year.

HeartlandGirl · 12-07-2021, 09:37 AM

I'm not a fan of Drake's music, but I respect him for pulling out of the Grammys. When I saw Kanye live, he went on a really long rant about how he'd won all these Grammys but never won when a white person was in the same category. I doubt most of us around here put much credence in those awards, but it's good to see artists standing up so that maybe things will change.

LemonMelon · 12-07-2021, 10:15 AM

Drake's album was garbage anyway. Him dropping out saves us all the indignity of Way 2 Sexy potentially winning Best Rap Performance (considered only for Future's camp genius, I hope; Drake and Thugger mailed it in).

lazarus · 12-07-2021, 11:12 AM

Hard to respect Drake when he's doing a co-headlining show with Kanye himself.

And Donda getting an Album of the Year nom is a joke and worth boycotting the show over.

mikal · 12-07-2021, 12:09 PM

I just got Foo Fighters tickets. That’s cool.

Donda is easily the best album on that list, degeneracy aside.

Haha that's not even close to true.

Even though I haven't and will not listen to Donda, looking at what was nominated, I'm hard-pressed to believe it isn't at least the 3rd best option. But Evermore is easily the best album nominated.
