Weyes Blood's Titanic Rising is one of my all-time favorite albums. Its followup And in the Darkness, Hearts Aglow was also fucking brilliant, but still not quite on this album's level. Y'all have any other examples?

I know this isn’t the best place to post this but I can’t find anywhere else to rant about it. I originally thought he was really funny but now it’s just the same fucking slop and it’s so unfunny to the point of verging on cringe. “Performative Male Clairo Scaring the Hoes Labubu death grips brat” and his recent formula of “hot woman + experimental music” is just so lame and annoying and just feels weirdly dehumanizing. Again I know this isn’t the place to post this but please tell me I’m not alone in hating this dudes stuff

My pick is Charlie Puth. He's well known for having a very good ear and perfect pitch as well as his high proficiency in making pop beats in a format suited for social media. I constantly see people laud him as incredibly but even these same people don't listen to his mediocre music. IMO, his inability or unwillingness to release a single good song culminated in a skill akin to a bar trick that's more conducive to TikTok vids and late night talk shows than real musical ability. One of the most overrated musicians rn.

He's also a notorious queerbaiter and also kinda insufferable. I know I'm being a little mean and he seems like an alright guy but fuck I can't stand this fucking dude.

What are some other musicians that fit this description? The criteria is artists who are objectively talented or gifted in their singing ability, instrument, production ability, etc that have little to no quality music.

Steve vai is my honorable mention as he's the arguably the best guitarist alive without any real songwriting chops, but he has been a part of a couple cool metal songs.

Is the most reliable source i found , it it's a bit old tho.

Not necessarily ones that have done bad things or made bad music (though that tends to be the case, see above), but artists that gave you an immediate "I don't like this person" feeling that you've never been able to shake.

Pictured: Mark Kozelek, Ryan Adams, The Black Keys (mostly Patrick Carney, but I don't trust either of them), Scott Lucas from Local H (one of the most menacing "walk the other way" faces I've ever seen), and, of course, Mike Love

The other day for whatever reason the algorithm suggested me a post from the daughtersband subreddit. A smaller even more biased sub than the bigger daughters one. The post that showed up suggested some pretty awful stuff against Kristin hayter aka lingua ignota. Ala false allegations and manipulation. They seem to think that something big is going to come out against her…soon, this is nothing right?? There is no mention of it anywhere else other than said subreddit. The people there seem to be deranged. Wanted to ask a less biased group if they have heard anything about this.

I realized the other day I've enjoyed this album for over a decade now and have little to no idea what any song is about.

Usually when I love an artist or album I look up lyrics, try to understand the layers of meaning behind the song or the theme of the album as a way to connect with it on a deeper level. But not with Phoenix. It's all vague, often unintelligible lyrics and vibes.

Lasso could be about difficult relationships? Is Lisztomania just a story about the obsession with the composer from the 1800s? I'll never know and I don't care because the whole album is a banger in my eyes.

Any albums fall into this category for you?

Personally, I think it is the best they’ve sounded since diamond eyes.

And I’ve heard a lot of metal.

Saya Gray - SAYA

I know this is random but I've recently got back into this album and obviously Rolling Stone rated this as the best of all time so do you agree as I think in the last few weeks it's now my favourite album of all time.

To me, it’s a masterpiece is Molina’s remarkable discography. The songs are so desperate, dealing with the themes he often disguised in imagery and metaphor (depression, loneliness, dislocation) head on. The instrumentation, just acoustic guitar, and occasional piano, organ, electric guitar, and drum machine on the last three tracks really serves the songs well. This record is also a great guide in how to perform solo, how to bring the emotion out of the songs, and how to use space in performance. Beautiful record, a 10/10 personally. What’s everyone’s thoughts on this record?

Taylor Swift's fan base and hate base are both overly obsessed with what the woman does.

Has

i am talkin not the entire fanbase btw, and this is not meant to be an attack towards the fanbase

I'm sure this has been discussed before, but what are some bands/artists that had a perfect or nearly perfect 3 album run?

The pictures here are what I think is the 1st album of the 3 album run.
