What's the general consensus on Death Grips?
Retarded
>>72306877
good, but also kind of bad sometimes
dad version of xxxtentacion
>>72306953
Same sound as XXTentacion with better mixing and lyrics that are less intelligible but also less retarded
They're just retarded
LOL @ DG getting the same treatment as Tame Impala
/mu/ has a boner for them for 2 or 3 years and then it becomes cool to call them shit because god forbid you still like them
>>72306877
a conceptual art exhibition anchored by sound and vision, i.e. meme band acquires retard following with edgy stunts like skipping shows, ARGs, and using a penis as their album cover
>>72306953
if by 'dad version' you mean better produced, more abstract, experimental, and with more self awareness than its counterpart, then sure.
i-i actually like Death Grips
>>72306973
>Same sound as XXTentacion
You just got no clue do you mate
meme music for babbys but actually pretty good
Stefon a cute!!!
>>72306877
Great stuff
I hate people who listen to Death Grips ironically or any other artist ironically you either like the music or you don't. I like Death Grips
>>72308539
Nobody is sat there actually listening to it ironically what are you on about
really the only thing i dislike about death grips is the normies who listen to them because "haha they're a meme because they're loud and weird". And then all the contrarians on this board who hate them because "haha they're a meme because they're loud and weird". So I guess it's just people I dislike and not death grips. All in all, one of the best current bands and one of the few that is making a significant mark in boundary pushing.

I think he's referring to people listening to death grips because they are weird and it make you looks like a music connoisseur even if you're a total normie
>>72308947
Ah in that case I can see a few people doing that
theres at least a thread everyday dedicated to hating them so i guess thats the cool opinion atm
MEME

I guess I'm some what new on /mu yet I think it's shaped my taste a lot more patrician already. But from what I've seen, a lot of the pretentious fags say "fucking hipster normie bs trash ass fuck" yet at the same time I see NOTM alllllll the time in intimidating charts. I also see a lot in more serious threads like this, it kind of filters out the hipsters and pretentious fags and leaves a population of people who truly love their antics, music, sole purpose and shit. What I'd conclude is that now that now we have albums like GP and NOTM, they're kind of out of the hipster stage people talk about (aka they're proving that the are really doing incredible stuff [which I also think a lot of that credit goes to Zach])
>>72306877
They suck very large donkey balls.
They are literally shit-tier and anyone who likes them is a fucking pleb.
>>72306877
I have to admit...they are pretty goddamned awful.
>>72306973
...WHAT. I think I could actually see more comparisons with Metallica than xxxtencock
>>72306877
"music" for autists.
jeez, /mu/ really turned on them
At what age did you grow out of dg?
>>72310678
everybody on /mu is literally the stereotype of a hipster. They can't think so they assert their opinion is the opposite of what's popular...but they all listen to death Grips still lol
>>72310706
7yrd old
>>72310751
nope. Its the fact that I can think that leads me to the realization and understanding that dg are a truly horrible musical experience.
>>72310678
It's no longer fun to meme about them, much like AnCo
Nothing really new
I like their music. It kind of triggers me that /mu/ as a whole pretty much dislikes them by this point. I can understand a few people saying "le def grapes suk LOL" ,but ,with this many people saying they don't like their music i'm almost 99% sure it was a tripfag that started the "Death Grips is bad" meme.
No matter how much /mu/ pretends to hate tripfags they'll still eat up anything said by someone with a name and a tripcode.
it just isn't right
>>72310812
enlightened by your own intelligence i see
The overwhelming majority think they're utter nonsense, but I enjoy them
>>72306877
they suck.
first 2.5 albums good, rest dogshit
>>72306877
I really tried to like them. I thought I was all edgy and shit...but then I realized they are just horseshit masquerading as music.
>>72306877
I credit them with transitioning me out of my "rap isn't real music" phase. I appreciate them for broadening my taste.
BP is their best
>>72306877
I kept hearing about them from my cousin who is in middle school. He said he and all his friends were really into them.
He played them for me...and I just laughed.
>>72308031
this is the only post in this thread that's contributing to the discussion
>>72306877
Kinda hard to get into like Xiu Xiu
The Money Store and ExMilitary are worth it
not the rest
I was never really a fan of dg, i don't think they're bad tho. i'm just very rarely in the mood for kinda angry music.
I remember when almost everybody on /mu/ loved them and i miss this time desu
I wonder if the reason is people on /mu/ actually changed their music taste or that there is so much new people and the old /mu/ taste just got irrelevant

do you think he has the BBC?
>>72306877
they're basically very good but we overdiscussed them for like 3 years and now there's no point
yes, all their albums are pretty good and a few of them are elder god tier. yes, NOTM is the best. We know. Next topic.
>>72306877
my general consensus is that if you listen to death grips then you most likely don't have a brain
>>72307033
Although people shit on them most still like one of their pre-Bottomless Pit albums, you can see this in plenty of discussions. However it is easier to shit on them now because they put out Bottomless Pit which was a step down from everything they put out before.
band that does a lot of cool shit with industrial sound but sometimes make shit that just isn't that fun to listen to
overall good af w some weak spots
Why have the memes declined with each album? Exmilitary had by far the most memes of any of their albums, and each album has fewer memorable meme lyrics than the one before it.
