I still need to listen to this (hopefully sometime tonight or tomorrow), but I'm expecting something big from this album. For what it's worth they're one of the best and most intense live performers I've ever seen. Interested to hear how eightbitsamurai and flagamuffin feel about this one, maybe you'll be interested. The title alone has caused some provocation.
I'm finally going through it now, so far I'm very pleased with some of the tracks. 27 is a stellar track in particular. Much less hard and hip-hop than their other material but it's a good listen nonetheless.
I've never been able to get into Hot Chip, they're certainly not bad, I'm just not much of a fan. I think what happened is I made a comment here about our Spring Concert (Chance the Rapper with Common), and then saw a post from 8bit about Chance. Deleted the comment to move it over to his submission, but 8bit ended up responding here (must have been replying as I deleted it?) so then I undeleted my comment here and deleted the comment on his submission. However, in terms of weird glitch shit my community page has looked like this for the past day or so:
Also Chance the Rapper and Common are our Spring concert here, should I go?
For Chance. If you need choice tracks from him, lemme know.
Common is alright, but he's also an apologist fuckboi. Anyways I knew what you were referencing before I clicked the link just reading your description, haha. I'll check it out too, this'll be my first time listening to them.
You must have seen that comment before I deleted it and moved it over to yours since your post is actually related to Chance. I know Commons music (and fuckboi-ism) a lot better than I know Chance, choice tracks would be much appreciated. Okay so from what I've read from hiphopheads is that this is a lot less hip-hop than their previous albums so at the least you should also check out Tape 2 at some point.
