I hope this is something like their merzbow collab. I like their other stuff, albeit I find it a bit generic, but mixing in a harsh noise producer and artist really pushed them to their creative bounds and I hope they can recapture that.

>>71157050
FoH has matured a lot since their last solo releases (as in, non-collaborations) so hopefully this one will show that growth

>>71157090
I haven't had a chance to listen to their EPs yet and the only albums that stuck out to me was the FoH/Merzbow split. They might have shown grown with their EPs, but either way I cant wait to hear this new album. Definitely a group I look forward to and IMO might be the next Isis in terms of creativity within their respective metal genre

good feel ++

how much of an entry level normalfag can you be?

>>71156307
I think so. I really love it. It's relatable and you can understand were Rivers is coming from. It's self aware with out being full blown DUDE IRONY LMAO. Also most of the melodies are fantastic.

Yes

Been there, done that, didn't listen to any of them

I unironically wish I was a teen in the 90's.
I always loved the youthful angst during that time.

Good.

it takes a little while to get accustomed to the quality of higher end phones. I assume most people wouldn't care

>>71156096
Depends on the phones.

I've been mixing for 14 years so there was a point where I hadn't used normal phones or earbuds in years and then tried some and couldn't understand how anyone can even enjoy music through them it sounded so awful but some buds are probably okay.

I would say that going from buds and consumer phones to say, DJ headphones, that don't have a flat response but are still very high end in terms of sound quality, would be amazing to a regular listener.

It's like upgrading to awesome speakers. DJpro2000s sound incredible. The bass being so deep and clear would blow their minds, everything else being bright and clear, would feel great.

I currently use AKG's, and I think something like studio phones with a flat response would, like you said, actually take getting used to. So on first listen they might think, 'these are really clear, but, I don't feel the same listening to the music.' and might take time to get used to it.

Some songs drive you nuts. Like the vocal panning in sublime's 'what I got' drives me nuts through good headphones, even though it's a good song.

>>71156096
those aren't high end headphones and 320 kbps mp3s would sound fine on them

but if you're listening to the kind of music that gets loudness war'd, just stick to your iphone earbuds

Shiny, shiny, shiny boots of leather.

>awesome lyrics

I'M WAITING FOR MY DUBS

Good lyrics can't be learned imo.

Best you can do is listen to artists who write good lyrics and try to assimilate their styles with your own feelings and turn of phrase. Read some poetry, learn the components of poetry, expand your vocabulary. Lyrical prose really cannot be learned though, just as a warning. Just make music that's good in spite of the lyrics.

Care to post a sample?

>>71155991
Sure, I'll Post some of my attempts. Please dont judge me

The night was cold and inside it was warm
Carry her home her mightnight rider
She never forgot when he came through a snowstorm
Dont Make her feel like a strange Outsider
He rode to the other side
There he'll Be our guide Among the stars

When Will the wind whisper his return
When he rides back through the night
The Birds sing that he'll never return
Shot six times under a hunter's sight
Seems like she'll stay here on Earth
While he rides on the clouds above

She stays and she prays
That they'll meet again one Day
I sing and I play
For the Love of the Midnight rider and jos bride

This was to Be a "non-meme country" song, mostly influenced by Johnny Cash. I got some More, If you'd like

>>71156038
This really doesn't strike me autistic or bad in any sense. It's not particularly poetic and has some "errors" but what's most important in lyrics is sincerity. If this came out naturally, you're fine. They're not perfect, they're not Dylan or Cohen, but they'd work just fine for the style of song you described and if you pair them with a good melody/guitar part you're good.

Some things to refine over time that are aces for lyrics are alliteration and internal rhymes. Just makes the cadence flow a lot better which is the single most important thing for lyrics since they're paired with a melody and all. But yeah I'd say the "skeleton" here is much better than what I expected.

>>71155949
shitty release that gets praised by normies for ripping off everyone else ideas.
