Been seeing a lot of shit talked about these guys on here lately, what is so bad about them?
Saying the fanbase is just all poseurs is a weak response because poseurs just listen to the music as a fashion statement and don't really enjoy it.

only listened to heavier than a death in the family, but that album was almost 100% buildup with very little payoff. i give it a 5/10

Not all fans of LRD are poseurs, but all poseurs are fans of LRD.

They're a decent/okayish psych rock band. Very self indulgent, but decent. Not that great. It's easy to hate when it becomes one of *those* artists - ones that you see mentioned rarely, but then get posted on a chart thread once and all of a sudden everyone is including this semi obscure band on their charts and favorites with the pretty album cover and the good image. It's easy to hate.

memes aside, tame impala is far better than LRD.

both are untalented and uncreative, but at least impala can make hooks and melodies. LRD are only good for the most basic psych rock/postrock.

People listen to LRD expecting poppy hooks all over the place or some kind of proto-post-rock instead of textures and overtones. Not to mention that most of their recordings are live bootlegs, and that to get anywhere close to the live experience the music needs to be listened to at high a volume as possible and not many people do this.
>>
>>71330612
yeah
>>
>>71330612
nah, you're a typical rym faux knowledgeable poseur. LRD are decent but they are absolutely average in terms of creativity or even musical ability. theres nothing remarkable about them besides aesthetic purposes or the occasional drawn out psych shit which is grateful dead tier at best anyway.

LRD used to be a band exclusively listened to by tape trading circles, but Julian Cope made a big deal out of them being a secret obscure world changer and suddenly every alt-music podcast or paper was singing praises. Now they're basic Freshman college radio member-core but their fans act like they're entirely unknown.
>>
>>71330772
I've been here for nearing 9 years though.

You're in the stage 2 "I HATE NORMIES AND I HAVE UNIQUE PERCEPTION" stage. you think youre not "normal" for hating on shit like mac demarco and tame impala under your own specific definition of what is "normal" and what isnt, and you basically dismiss these under their image without being able to set those things aside and just analyze the musical ability of it.

even in more simpler terms, you're the "normalfag" here- it's very popular to hate on shit like demarco and tame impala on moo, youre just another guy fitting in with the crowd.

not that im defending them, but as mediocre as tame impala are, as musicians, theyre better than LRD. that isnt really saying much though.

How can you write something even less substantial than a poseur faggot like me? You gotta be next level stupid for that.

>the occasional drawn out psych shit which is grateful dead tier at best anyway
Grateful Dead didn't play giant repetitive textures of noise at loud volumes to focus on overtones though. That's more a Glenn Branca, Sonic Youth, modern Swans, and Japanoise kinda thing. GD played far more bluesy psych stuff.

AMT went more in the route of drone, world music, and space rock though. Boredoms were more punk in the beginning, then Krautrock later. Shizuka and Fushitsusha didn't have textures as lush as LRDs.

This narrative gets repeated over and over and every time someone calls your type out you totally shut down or resort to Plan B which is essentially saying how sick you are of "avant-teens" flaunting their taste on this board and how much better they must think they are.

Don't you see how insecure you are?

The AMT record is literally some drones, world music instruments and space rock though wtf are you on about?

That Boredoms is a noisy take on synthy kraut stuff, too.

Neither are doing anything at all like LRD were doing, and to compare them outside influencing is the very reason Japanoise artists hate the term Japanoise because there's a lot more variety in that scene than a term like that would make one believe.

I've never heard of anyone using the term japanoise, nor have I ever used it, or will ever use it. So who gives a fuck.

>The AMT record is literally some drones, world music instruments and space rock though wtf are you on about?

Like I said, better than anything LRD ever did.

What is there to say, my man? LRD does not engage on the visceral level something like AMT does. It's put up on a pedestal of pedestals for absolute schlock work. Zero effort, zero gravitas. You can't find me a single work by LRD that speaks as many volumes as Shizuka's work, or AMT's work, or Boredoms' work.

It's good ambient-ish music, their structure really shouldn't be the focus, since they are at their best when they just do this reverb sea thing.
It's basically Mac DeMarco, much slower and filled with distortion.
Good background, but then not much else.

Also they come off as poseur but most people got into them thanks to Space Funeral

Fushitsusha > LDR
>>
>>71331604
Well, that's because LRD's work, unlike those guys, isn't on the conventional end of being viscerally interesting. LRD's work is more strictly based on that sorta weird hypnotic feeling/additional sound that appears from achieving harmonic overtones through having both a very raw sound and loud volume. Since LRD doesn't also spend a lot of musical space having conventional visceral music through more percussive elements, they get a far more full sound than someone that has a wide variety of percussive elements like AMT or Boredoms. Not only that, but LRD also have a far more lush sound than others in that scene who also chase overtones (Fushitsusha and Shizuka), who tend to have a more abrasive freeform sound which, again, is more conventionally visceral.
>>
Honestly, i don't get the hate. it's a good band, they make good music. Mizutani's voice is hit or miss for a lot of people tho, and that's what i can understand the most for someone to dislike them. It's just that the absolute hate there is towards them and how people cannot just consider the fact that some people reaaally like them is just nuts to me.

Are you trying to prove me right? Super Roots 5 is the epitome of drums everywhere. Nor is the sound on it raw enough to get the fuller LRD sound.
>>
>>71332392
>Super Roots 5 is the epitome of drums everywhere

Yes. You said [LRD] get a far more full sound than someone that has a wide variety of percussive elements. Super Roots 5 proves you wrong. SR5 is more full sounding than any LRD release. It has drums, yes. And that LRD achieves their full sound without as many drums is novel. I was merely focusing on that one sentence.
>>
>>71332433
>SR5 is more full sounding than any LRD release
Nah. Maybe so for like the acoustic sounding stuff or their sparse 80s stuff or Heavier Than A Death, but everything else sounds far more full because each and every tone is just so raw that it ends up covering more space. It's a similar philosophy of analog vs digital, lower fidelity vs higher fidelity where the earlier takes up more space frequency wise than the latter.
