SR4 Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 i agree kgw its pretty disgusting and it shows how 'weird' is becoming popular things like this are going to be coming out a lot more now cause producers are starting to realize that people get into it and the majority of people are gonna find it cool and the hwole world is gonna be hipsters and they are not gonna realize that its all shitty ripoffs of good things like fever ray and animal collective and etc etc would you mind posting some fever ray clips that sound very similar to the teaser tracks? im interested in actually hearing these things that this artist is ripping off. the last full length video is a worthless rip though, no question.

MAXIMUS MISCHIEF Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 listen to vocal effects. clear ripoff. and the overall visual style, basically everything about it just screams 'lets be weird like her!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Backson Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 I feel like they are ripping off Fever Ray quite a significant amount. Visually it is all very similar to her live show and videos such as When I Grow Up. Musically it seems like they've borrowed quite of a bit of the overall style as well. hmm, i don't think so. very broadly, they are a similar stlye of music, mellow female vocalist synthpop. fever ray is darker, more synthetic, and dub influenced.

manmower Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 One can only imagine how big Fever Ray must be in Sweden, so yeah this whole thing reeks of opportunism. It's more in the image per se than in the music though. This full track was utter shit, and while I don't even like The Knife, I dig Fever Ray a hell of a lot more than this.

Guest GrandPopPoplock Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 Yeah , visually...I can see the Fever Ray comparison , but she doesn't really sound like Fever Ray . The visual style was the main reason why I knew it couldn't be Fever Ray ( why do the same shit over again ? ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zazen Posted March 20, 2010 Share Posted March 20, 2010 what a letdown Nobody guessed though, certainly no-one in this thread, and very few people elsewhere it seems. Thats quite an achievement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest KY Posted March 20, 2010 Share Posted March 20, 2010 Lol you guys are fags. Fever Ray ripoff, who (quoting Maximus mischief) is herself a ripoff? Weird is only now popular? Way to drag a thread out for thirty pages you subject you think is totally hipster and passé. I respect the people who admit they found this genuinely intriguing. zazen et al know what's up. wattem unite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest KY Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 I thought somebody had said Fever Ray was a ripoff ITT; I was trying to say that chalking up new bands as derivatives of other bands is really easy criticism, and in the case of the thread, it was stupid. Then again, Joanna Lee's music is ultra lame anyway. Basically thought the fever Ray ripoff and "weird is cool now" discussions were weak sauce.

MAXIMUS MISCHIEF Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 Basically thought the fever Ray ripoff and "weird is cool now" discussions were weak sauce. they may be weak sauce but it is ripping off fever rays vocal effect and style. and the weird is becoming cool thing is something you will see more of as more things like this start to emerge. there is such a thing as 'cool hunters' and they find what people like and they imitate it with their big studios and top hats and money sign eyes. in a time when there is a LOT of good unique original and 'weird' music that is going to be happening a lot more. with cheap ripoffs becoming popular instead of the things they copy. you dont believe me thats fine but mark my words, mark them well.
