Indeed, Half String is sort of like what would happen if mid-1990s Lee had a shoegaze band! In a weird harmonic convergence, LA has been an origin point for some great shoegaze in two distinct eras, in early 1990s which diverged into the dream pop scene and then again in the hipster revival in the Silverlake bands post-2009. Today, LA bands sound like a prodigy of their heritage, Mazzy Star colliding with Medicine. Also a lot of female vocalists in LA bands, its becoming cliched here, and we are almost like an 1992 Olympia, Washington revival going in the local scene. Since I dig that sound, going to local shows never a let down.

Alas, the more I realize it, I'm a victim the LA sound, all the music I've created in the past ten years has been trapped in the form of shoegaze. I don't even really listen to that many shoegaze bands, and I've been in reggae and blues bands more than anything, but all my own music? Endlessly the same, even as it progresses. In fact, this latest project I'm working on I've full-fledged conceded is confined to the 1990s

"Catch A Bad One" is one of Del's finest tracks. Tell me you've heard the remix of "Wrongplace"? That shit is out of control. Del is def one of my favs that I feel like gets overlooked a bit too often.

Couldn't agree more. Del is one of the best emcees in the game, and always has been. I'm close to pissing myself over the Deltron sequel, and his early albums are overlooked milestones of underground hip hop.

I am starting to think that you, louder and I should start a SYG hip hop fanatic group. Fuck the haters.

this ain't no Discovery, but the album is catchy as hell and danceable and i like it a lot.

Julian Casabalancas surprised the hell outta me with his song. gotta be the best thing he's done since Room on Fire.

first Deerhunter, now Daft Punk. is 2013 the year of the poppy & accessible, or just a coincidence? hmm..

Severian 05.14.2013 06:35 AM

I listened to the Slim Shady LP the other day. The one album that I've always been loyal to, despite the complete train wreck Eminem became when he became a "serious," self referential, melodramatic, stereotypical "public whiner" who apologized for making albums that critics didn't like.

Yet even during "role model" (and definitely "brain damage"), I couldn't help but wonder why the hell I ever though of him as more than a mediocre novelty rapper at best.

Stupid as it may sound to some, I am overjoyed that nobody gives much of a shit about him anymore. I'll take the genuine schizophrenic drug addled ramblings of lil Wayne over Eminem's bitch-ass any day. Glad to see hip hop entering an era where he is not the Alpha and Omega of one of my favorite genres... turning hip hop into a trailer park train wreck.

Fucking Dido collab.... We all should have known better as soon as that shit came out.

louder 05.14.2013 06:51 AM

i loved his first three albums when i was younger, then i grew up and realized that even back in his "prime" he wasn't all that. his music has aged horribly i think. a lot of his songs used to sound incredible to me as a kid, but now they come off as corny. Marshall Mathers LP is his best album by far but even that is far from a classic.

noisereductions 05.14.2013 08:38 AM

Marshall Mathers LP is still my fav. I love/hate Eminem. It depends what day u ask me.

louder 05.14.2013 09:11 AM

Marshall Mathers LP is a good album, but i can't stand the screaming on "Kim" and "The Real Slim Shady" is just way too goofy for my liking. sadly his career started going downhill from there.

yeah, Discovery is fun. bought it when it came out and i was the furthest from a house or techno fan, but those first couple of singles were too infectious to ignore.

the new album is more disco than house. it sounds like a throwback but at the same time futuristic. the og fans are disappointed but the critics are already calling it their best album ever.

I don't know, I'd say Eminem Show is good. "Toy Soldiers" is legit. There's some good stuff on there. But I'd say after that his albums are mostly a handful of good to great songs and a bunch of songs I skip.
