July 12, 201214 yr I'm listening to the new album by Aesop Rock, Skelethon. I'm two songs in an so far... I hate it. It's bad. I was so excited, since Zero Dark Thirty was an amazing track. I mean lyrically and delivery wise he's on point, as always. But the beats... they just don't fit with his style. Song three now, it's sounding a bit more how I think Aes should sound. The beat doesn't try to outshine him, he's lower in the mix. The piano interlude seems pretty unneeded to me, but he kills it on the outro. That last 45 seconds are reminiscent of Bazooka Tooth with sharper production. Track four is Zero Dark Thirty. As I said earlier, brilliant song. I can understand why it was the first single. I think it could have been a bit more aggressive, but it's well produced and the lyrics are typical Aesop Rock. We'll see how this goes from here. I know no one will read this but I'll probably keep updating the post, for my sake. Track 5, I don't like once again. The synth hits are just jarring, and not in a good way. The hook is not for me either. Not awful though I guess. It seems like an evolution of previous styles, just maybe not in the right direction. Ruby '81, the next song, is interesting. Not something you see much in an Aesop Rock song, a linear story. It's pretty simple, but effective. It comes off more as a poem or perhaps very short story than a rap. As such, it doesn't do much for me in terms of musical enjoyment. But I liked it as a piece of art, if nothing else. The theme of disappointment continues for me with Crows 1. And for the same reasons I've outlined above. Although on this song I dig the girl in the song. Her parts are, eerie, for lack of a better word. Aes redeems himself on the end of the track a bit. The next track, Crows 2 feels a bit better to me. I'm running out of ways to describe the songs without writing redundant criticisms. So I'll just say that this track was okay, for me. Racing Stripes, the ninth track sits with me better than most of the others so far. Some parts are annoying, and the goddamn synth is back, but otherwise it feels like what I was hoping for out of the album; a return to more off-kilter lyrics and less flashy production. Still not totally what I was hoping for though. 1000 O'Clock. Similar feel to Racing Stripes. The lyrics are more warped, the beat is grimy, the claps are distorted and heavy. Aes sounds angry. He is angry. Probably the best so far. The first that I could see myself putting on repeat. Next up comes Homemade Mummy. It's distorted like Racing Stripes. I don't think it's nearly as good though. Song twelve, Grace is pretty classic Aesop Rock. I think it's a song about him not wanting to eat vegetables as a kid. I'm sure there are a lot more metaphors there, but it seems like a very detailed account of him sitting there staring at green beans. The next song, Saturn Missiles, is pretty much what I was expecting from Aesop Rock. A lot of lyrics packed into a short amount of time, almost indescribable because of the cadence. Kind of like a less catchy version of None Shall Pass or something. In Tetra, we see a return of the distortion. And we see a return of a previous Aesop Rock, one that I can't quite place at 3 AM. It's slower, the delivery is jaunty, the pop culture references are sprinkled very heavily. "Three Wolf Moon" and "This is why we can't have nice things." are dropped directly into the song. But it's practically mocking. This song is going to get a few more listens from me for sure. Certainly at least one more where I'm not trying to type at the same time. Lastly comes Gopher Guts. It's personal. I don't know what I think. I know it's good though. I'm tired, no one will read this. Tl;dr : I'm disappointed with Aesop Rock's new album, Skelethon. I'll give it a few more chances, but I don't think it's going to get the play from me that his other albums do. Afterthought: I miss Blockhead. [bleep] the law, they can eat my dick that's word to Pimp
July 14, 201214 yr The National - High Violet. Incredible album. Also, seeing Zooey Deschanel in the post above mine has made me really want to listen to She & Him. Maxed 15/06/13
July 15, 201214 yr Chasing the Light - Mat Kearney. Not really one for this type of feel-good music. But I think it's good to listen to it every once in a while as a pick-me-up (when pop-punk has been over-listened to, which is hard to do, but still). | My Tumblr |
