>middle school tier metalcore

how can anybody defend this? I'm now genuinely convinced that liking this guy is just a meme

boring post mate, you're all about image and not about sound

>how can anyone defend this
why does anyone need to defend it? Dude had an opinion, you don't like it, oh well.
we should have 8 more threads about it just to be sure
Lets reword it using more...musical qualities
>album with a very large variety of styles, rhythms, timbres, and melodies with a metalcore base that's an uniquely triumphant take on something otherwise dark and surreal
>8/10
>anachronistic/outdated jazz rock that's also a regression for the style due to how simplified it is which initially got some decent reviews whose ratings went sky high once its author died a couple days after release
>4/10
>>70307526
is this a meme? because I can't find it on his website.
why doesnt he ever fix his ugly website?
>>70307526
>implying Colors isn't an 8/10 album in its realm and context
Did we listen to the same record?

That's his aesthetic
he's just too deep for you
50 bucks says you didnt actually listen to colors and even when you listened to blackstar you were thinking about how fucking hip you were
Colors is great and all but Scaroof says it's black metal which is just not accurate at all

Blackstar was getting great reception before Bowie died.
t. A person who thinks Bowie's mostly overrated, listened to Blackstar two days before he died and thought it was amazing.
