same tbqh. it's a lot more compact and has better songwriting

>>70807286
>Implying songwriting was a priority on V:D:C
I mean I love both, but V:D:C is more about the texture and IDM influence than YWNKW

>>70807334
yeah and I get that, they're both great albums either way for their own styles. YWNKW just is a lot more enjoyable album to listen to all the way through, but V:D:C definitely is a toptier idm/shoegaze-album

I KNOW YOU TOOOO WELL

Boring glitch, derivative shoegaze, only a few memorable parts to this incredibly long album. Overrated for sure.

What in the absolute FUCK is this? I just listened to the first "song" and it's literally a bunch of noise. It's not even different noises. It's like the same thing repeating for three minutes. I don't understand how people can enjoy this. If the whole album is like this, I don't want any part of it. This is not a "classic" album. This is fucking noise.

te frist track is pretty good if you enjoy a bit of glitch. i love it. but no this kind of glitch isn't all there is to it, keep listening.

More stuff like Tekka?

>>70807238
I like this a lot but idk if I like it more. Listening to pretending on the tail end of an acid trip was supreme though.

>>70807238
it's good but it's like they took Velocity design comfort and took all the electronics away, so you're just left with OK comfy stuff we've all heard before

>>70807497
Please tell me another glitch + Shoegaze album that comes close

>>70807530
Reminder that it's impossible to like something "ironically"

>>70808760
>Baby's first IDM track
Tekka is the albums pleb filter and the only time it goes full IDM. Just skip it to get to the meat of the album.

>>70807286
The guy who made it actually likes it more than V:D:C. I don't agree with him, but still.

this is unironically my favorite album

>>70810244
This album doesn't "combine" glitch and shoegaze like most would have you believe. It merely alternates between the genres and tries to sell you on the fact that it's doing something that no one else has done before. So my recommendation is to listen to the best shoegaze albums and the best IDM albums.

Loveless isn't my favorite, but When You Sleep is always a fucking jam.

>>70810644
>IDM songs with floaty, dreamy vocals over noise
>Shoegaze songs with rapid electronic drums underneath
I'll admit, some songs belong in one genre more than the other, but that doesn't mean there are not any songs that combine both on the record. If you can't recognize that than you clearly haven't listen to either genre enough.

Same. This album seems to be like Marmite on this board for some reason.

T. Someone who only listened to the first two tracks and the intro to Velocity.

I don't really like the album but I can see why some people love it so much, the album cover is a work of art though.

>>70810784
Genre semantics aside, I think my main point still stands. The album is way too long and it doesn't have enough good parts to justify it. Aside from Fruitcakes, International, Chocolate, and Dancers, I don't really think the album is very good. There's a melody in International that sounds EXACTLY like this one part of a song in the Flaming Lips' Yoshimi album (just an observation). The shoegaze songs (Dsco, Chocolate) were really good on early listens, but they sound more and more shallow the more I listen to them, as opposed to something like MBV where you are rewarded with multiple listens. This album would benefit greatly by having its length cut 15-25 minutes. I don't think it's a bad album by any means, in fact it's quite the contrary, but I don't agree with many on here that it's this lost 10/10 masterpiece that never got the attention it should have.

shame it's become a meme like duster and fishmans.

>>70811071
This is a really subjective counter argument. For me the highlights are completely different, namely Dsco, Velocity, Fruitcake, Design 1, Chocolate, Dancers, and Design 2:3. I agree some songs feel like they could be shorter, but where it should be trimmed is subjective. I get it's not a personal 10/10 for everyone, but I've yet to hear another album that's remotely similar in sound and that's what drives it's popularity.

>>70811167
It's not quite at fishmans level of meme yet.

I wholeheartedly disagree. To each their own.
> but I don't agree with many on here that it's this lost 10/10 masterpiece that never got the attention it should have.
It's a long, ambitious, unique, detailed album that was in development for at least 4 years (see link - that show was in 1999 and there are a couple early VDC tracks). It obviously isn't going to be a 10/10 masterpiece to everyone but it deserves more recognition.

>>70811435
good argument

>>70811472
Better counter-argument.

>>70811432
>He doesn't like In Her Gentle Jaws
Listened to both many times, and this album doesn't really close to V:D:C. In fact, if you placed the electronic drums with sampled drums and the chiptune with electric piano, no one would even think of calling an "electronic shoegaze" album.

>>70811486

This album is so great (even if it is a meme, apparently). Any suggestions for someone who wants to listen to other IDM-influenced shoegaze or pop music? Even if it's not exactly similar to this.

It's derivative of shoegaze and IDM but it's does what it does well.

While I agree that the more traditional shoegaze tracks don't keep their impact on multiple relistens, the glitchy IDM tracks still hold-up well. They're very well crafted. There isn't that much IDM out there that keeps the same amount of sound and energy as those tracks, the only ones that come close in my experience are some rather obscure Gescom tracks.
