ambermonk Posted April 18, 2023 Share Posted April 18, 2023 Kilgrimol Dissolve is still the top track for me, but Drown A Star is starting to grow on me for some reason. I dunno, feel like there's a surreal juxtaposition of, say, 80s pop/high school films and B horror that I can't adequately pinpoint in words, yet it's something only VHS Head can achieve. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YELLOW Posted April 18, 2023 Author Share Posted April 18, 2023 Sample spotting: "Cunning...swift...dangerous beast of the ocean" from "Drown A Star" comes from the beginning monologue in Zaat (1971) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
springymajig Posted April 19, 2023 Share Posted April 19, 2023 Well I guess I'm in the minority that prefers Persistence of Vision over Trademark Ribbons of Gold, so on first listen I really liked the new one too. Part of what I like about this (and PoV) is how overwhelmingly dense it is but that also means repeated listens are required to make any sense of it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YELLOW Posted April 20, 2023 Author Share Posted April 20, 2023 Speaking of Trademark Ribbons, finally found this sample: At 9:47 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugh Mughnus Posted April 20, 2023 Share Posted April 20, 2023 It's been a hot minute since I've been on here watmm, at least regularly; so from what I understand, we might be getting another tepid release from VHS Head, a lukewarm artist, but it's not confirmed, so we're all in suspense waiting for the eventual release of a 6/10 release like TROG? Everyone is in suspense for another discarded release like the last 3 Prefuse 73 albums? =/ This has been done; samples chopped, terribly strung together; it's a high school project. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugh Mughnus Posted April 20, 2023 Share Posted April 20, 2023 (edited) lol; just realized it's already out. Some good tracks but overall not for me I guess. Edited April 20, 2023 by Hugh Mughnus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, he is not them. Come on Pitchfork from 2009! He is a guy with a name and streams on youtube. Doesn't even sound remotely close to BOC. 2009 was funny.

baph Posted May 5, 2023 Share Posted May 5, 2023 (edited) Finally got the analog vinyls and am listening now for the first time. It’s not freaking out the cat like TROG does. I got about 3 hours of sleep in the last two days and the dark and sludgier vibe here (or at least in the first half) is really working for me tbqh. Thanks, Ade. edit: Paradise Drive is freaking the cat out, haha Edited May 5, 2023 by baph Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

splesh Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 I couldn't get past the third track or so. As impeccably executed as it is, that sort of thing doesn't do as much for me anymore. There are some glitch hop adjacent things I enjoy more like the Hullabalo0 EP I posted about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cern Posted May 21, 2023 Share Posted May 21, 2023 I have a hard time to enjoy his music. It is like alot of looped radio snippets sliced up with beats on top of that 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is like alot of looped radio snippets sliced up with beats on top of that Yes that's exactly what it is, isn't it? But not radio snippets, sliced up samples from VHS... I always thought that was the point was it was music entirely made from stitched up VHS & public access tv + documentary samples. I could be wrong though lol.

xox Posted May 23, 2023 Share Posted May 23, 2023 I’m not impressed with this album at all; sounds like random browsing through sample libraries, very weak sense of direction in comparison to the first album Im aware that Im probably missing something but that’s how i feel about this album - today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
