tUnE-yArDs- W H O K I L L ALBUM REVIEW

[jgil1966]

what? gangsta NOT on your favorite tracks? ): #surprised

[habbaoot]

You should review this album: Pteradon-iViva!

It's free and needs attention. AOTY.

Seriously why does no one know this album

[iwannabevictorio]

If it's any indication that you're just "going against the grain", Anthony, is that all other critics have received this album with over 80%. Whokill is an accomplishment that is just the artistic vision and evolution we need in music today. I don't think you were listening hard enough.

[whaojen]

frank ocean mixtape please!

[JasonMichaelMusic]

REVIEW BTSTU BY JAI PAUL!

[OnCall101Villa]

@JasonMichaelMusic he only has one goddamn song.

[goodrob1985]

I saw her live 2 years ago, very imprressive, she creates so much noise for just one person. but i absolutely hate her records.

[cha1tman]

1. Bizness

2. Powa

3. Doorstep

[dakingceasar88]

frank oceannnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn­nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn....­........swim good

[bocaburgler]

This is just my opinion, it's neither right or wrong, but I think you are an excellent reviewer. way to go!

[MusicSportsPolitics]

Review Deicide - To Hell With God. I have never seen you review death metal! Just the occasional black metal, and some grindcore recently.

[Jyd7734]

Does Cal do any reviews besides slipknot? Let him do one! :D

[Crunchieman]

needel that was quite a flamboyant first 30 seconds not gonna lie

[SheaMaddock]

review Frank Ocean!!

[itsfreshson]

Cold War Kids-Mine is Yours, and Atmosphere-Family Sign Please.

[FaggotsIncorporated]

Anyone else very reminded of Animal Collective?

[RobbyWithNoIE]

@FaggotsIncorporated can't really see that comparison.......care to explain? :3

[frididjurhuus]

Greg Parish from Nuclear Rabbit has to be the weirdest vocalist I've ever heard.

[StealthHawkInc]

@BENJISOUP nice way to put it.. LOL

[KumaKuma12]

Review the Timmy's Organism LP?

[aznbacon321]

Anthony have you ever listened to Nujabes, Modal Soul?

[FreedieFreeloader]

There is a live version of her performing Gangsta on here, it's much better than the album version, to me anyway.

[eggplantboy7]

hoi what bob dylan album is that

[Graveraider666]

@eggplantboy7 "blonde on blonde" dude

[Ranur5555]

2:28, I want more of that!

[IRcameraman]

Anthony you need to review LA Lungs album Cryptic Snuggling

[TROLLulzy]

I agree, this album is badly mixed

[JohannPH]

I've pimped tUnE-yArDs to quite a few and everybody loves Merill's voice from the get go. Can't say I agree with her voice being inaccessible based on that.

I still agree with your review. I love Gangsta, Bizness and Powa but the other tracks just don't match up for me.

Love.

[FellaM07]

I'll be honest, I didn't even listen to that tune-yards album, so I'll have to judge by song titles rather than songs.

1) Woolywollygang

2) Riotriot

3) Es-So

[Milan123987]

1) Bizness

2) Doorstep

3) You Yes You

[compsz]

do you actually get all the music you review legally? just wondering... In case your answer is "yes", I can't imagine the amount of money you've invested so far.!!!=O

shit...

Peace. =) You are really good btw Congrats

[DandHgoogoo]

you should totally review the new Low album

[TheZuah]

crusty

[HouseFantastic]

Maybe you like the androgyny in Merril's voice in same way you like Victoria Legrand's voice so much. Androgyny is something the two voices have in common.

Just sayin'.

[ariadne42]

So do you just review the stuff on NPR music?

[PapaJaves1]

@ariadne42 Is rotten sound on NPR? What about wormrot?

[shmittyfro]

You seem funny today.

[XXRitsukaChosyXX]

I am love'n this!

wierdst vocalist?

fever ray

[Xetrev13]

weirdest vocalist? AIDS Wolf..

[pizzaROX]

so a review is when you tell us what happens in the album?

[anygenremusic]

shes better (and more accessible) live than on tape.

[Shoegazer29]

Yay, you reviewed it! Though the album is more a 17/20 for me, I can understand your gripes. I do wish you had mentioned "My Country" (my personal favorite off the album, followed closely by "Powa" and "Bizness"), but otherwise a very thorough and reasoned review.

Other shit I'd love your opinion on:

Egyptrixx - Bible Eyes

Gang Gang Dance - Eye Contact

Grouper - A I A

Lykke Li - Wounded Rhymes

Peaking Lights - 936

[HBD22Tech]

"Hey, how are you? I haven't seen you in a while."

I actually haven't watched your videos in a while! Are you psychic?

[TheLordVoltron]

Review ISAM by Amon Tobin

[stevenmorrisEP]

I like your grubby opinion man voice.

[MortonMovieMusic]

YES i almost died of happiness when i saw blond on blond on the right, great album, love bob dylan :D

[MatthewsFILMs]

your review scores are on Wikipedia now for the albums you have reviewed ,now thats progress

[DoggieBark]

@MatthewsFILMs What albums?

[BigNigshizzle]

Where's da fav tracks?

[bigestsum41fan]

review purity ring-ungirthed

[GeistWerk]

I actually like the singer's voice.

[pjfislord]

digged the track/music video.

[lorrding]

You should review Young Prisms - Friends for Now

it's an incredible album and I can't stop listening to it

[Downsider24]

It would be awesome if you review Bloodied Yet Unbowed from the upcoming Primordial album.

[Morpheus94080]

tune-yards? hated it!

[Morpheus94080]

the new raveonettes album is fantastic... interpol and raveonettes should have a baby together

[RichardBLongly]

Yes, the song you linked ostensibly reminded me of Bitte Orca. Even her voice sounds like the singer! Androgynous, indeed. I'm gonna check out the album if I can.

Also, will you review Bill Callahan's Apocalypse? I mean, I don't think you've ever reviewed him, and he's certainly an eminent artist. Thanks, Anthony.



[slartibartfast8787]

The reviews just get better and better! Keep up the good work!

[slyfan64]

Review Weird Al's "Perform This Way!"

[BruisedEyeSockets]

Air / Charles Manson could use a proper review.

[IAmTheSwordmaster]

Anthony, you are one of the coolest people I know. One of the few people I trust with music reviewing. Rock on.

[thebrockmans05]

The Raveonettes.

RAVE ON.

[ZombieHipHop2345]

The new Badlands record by Dirty Beaches would be a great review.

[AbysmalPig]

I have not yet heard the album in its entirety, but what I have heard is from mediocre to very good. Nothing too great, but nothing falls flat on its face for me. I listened to "gangsta" because you said it wasnt good and thought that it was alrightish until the bit at the end (about the last minute) where the beat is minimal and sometimes non-existant, then it started to bug me. The singers voice is part of this, she sounds like a teenage Yma Sumac. This is not always a bad thing, she has style

[metalgearfan123able]

Please, Please, Please, review Amon Amarth Surtur Rising. the metal heads need you to review death metal!!

[311ed]

Amon Tobin please!!!

[AyeTran]

You should review Pink Moon! They are so dope, so original too! Best kind of hip-hop!

[ManBag101]

fav tracks?

[Sietenuevas]

best review you've done in a while. congrats

[timmah12345]

Review Seekae's +Dome! Please!

[Zvanunhoft]

I'm with ya on the androgynous vocals.  When I first heard bizness ( didn't know much about tune yards) I thought the singer was a he.........

[Goatbed13]

"Eeewrrr why does she wear face paint?! That's stupid!" <-- say that with a French accent, and it'll sound just like me :-)

[bleedingums13]

Was that a kilt?

[Kubiak04]

Also Battles!

[Kubiak04]

Yeah Bizness is like 9/10 and Gangsta is 1/10. Gangsta fuckin killed the whole album for me, there's no way I can really get into this

[saphrus82]

How about Gorillaz - The Fall

I like that LP the more i listen to it somehow ;)

[peachkey]

Actually, you HAVE seen me in a while, in fact, you saw me twice yesterday!

[K0STGO31]

thursdays new album puhleeease

[abedrinkin]

Weirdest vocalist has to be Bjork, hands down.  Kevin Barnes and Jonsi are pretty high up there too.

[thelargge]

Can you review ESBEN AND THE WITCH?

[bobbyjovalentine]

Weirdest/awesomest vocalist -- Brandon Flowers.

[bobbyjovalentine]

Bobby Jo Valentine - A Place to Belong! :-) Great review, btw.

[mmmackjr91]

The Soul Tape- Loso

[mmmackjr91]

The soul tape - Fabulous

[messi91]

Please review the new Amon Tobin LP!

[everywhere23]

Katy B - On a Mission

[iwazused]

you hit this right on the head.

some songs are GREAT!

but

gangsta is annoying.

[paulmerz]

Review the Amon Tobin!!!

[FreshmanThesis]

@paulmerz Oh god, yes, this

[paulmerz]

I really like the instrumentation, but I can't get in to the vocals...

[DieselGrunge]

Grimes/d'EON - Darkbloom

[TacticOgre]

PORTAL 2 - WANT YOU GONE

REVIEW THIS TRACK

[scotricksen]

good review. pretty decent 8 for me, im lovin' it.

oh, review Grouper's AIA too :)

[lampawampa]

review the Hanna soundtrack by the chemical bros

[TheExplodingPanda]

Perfect review for waking up after 4/20. "Why does she wear face paint? that's STUPID." hahahahaha.

SHE'S GONNA JUMP IN YOUR FACE AND EAT YOU!

[EvanMiller864]

Lol at people suggesting old songs for a track review. Not the point of the channel folks.

[superwiseman123]

What's Bobby doing back there?

[enyafreak2007]

I didn't quite like the song "Bizness" when I first listened to it, but perhaps other tracks will be more enjoyable. I love in-your-face albums that shake the music world upside down and crash everything that people expect, so I'll give tUnE-yArDS a complete listen.

Please give that new Planningtorock single another chance Anthony, you might end up liking it.

[CloudiGrayDay]

You Should Seview Pink Moons New Song Dangerous High.Ive Never Heard Hip Hop Like This Id like To See Your Take On The Song.

[huamanJR]

Review Goblin!!! by Tyler the creator whenever it comes out

[paultheporc]

@huamanJR dont worry about that

[huamanJR]

@paultheporc lol okkk :p

[paultheporc]

dont worry about that

[dannyspiterijr]

I've definitely noticed polarized opinions on the album. I personally am completely lovestruck. The melodies and grooves are great, I love the eccentricity and energy, I love Merrill's voice and personality, and I love that it's so catchy yet still experimental. It's so far my AOTY despite really enjoying some other stuff. It does take a lot of risks, so I can see why it'd turn people off, but those risks pay off for me (Gangsta is actually one of my favorites). Anyway, thanks for a fair review.

[UnderdressedPoet]

I liked it a bit more than you, but still, nice review. You really nailed down the description of her voice. I know it's a few weeks old, but I was sort of sad you never reviewed Lykke Li. I really enjoyed that album, (Though I'm a sucker for pop like it.) I would love a retroactive review.

Also, track review for The King of Carrot Flowers, Pts 2 and 3.

[sophcw]

Damn, I can't believe you called Gangsta "annoying," that song rules!

I don't find this album to be inaccessible, or Merril's voice to be that weird. It's certainly no less eccentric than albums by Animal Collective, Of Montreal, MGMT or Joanna Newsom that have been very popular in recent years. She's an insanely dynamic performer and songwriter. There are a few places where the album drags but overall I think it's a courageous piece of self-expression and is full of fantastic songs.

[alvinkarpis47]

BLONDE ON BLONDE <33333

[jeremologyy]

by the way: Grouper

[TrkyLym]

You're out of line, that is my favourite track on the album.

[AJInstrumental]

Please review some or all of the following: Curren$y - Covert Coup; Del The Funky Homosapien - Golden Era; Blue Sky Black Death - NOIR; Amon Tobin - ISAM; Prefuse 73 - The Only She Chapters

[PocketNate]

I think Bob Dylan in the background speaks to Anthony's opinion of Garbus' voice. I want to know what he thinks of Burial's new EP Street Halo.

[gopreds6]

@PocketNate

hahaha, oh bob...

[jazzbass3826]

review covert coupe! review covert coupe! review covert coupe!

Curren$y!

[Starflyerboy]

Also: she has an INCREDIBLE fearless voice. She could easily be a Feist-type singer/songwriter if she chose but I'm impressed that she chooses to push the boundaries and create this music that few would probably dare.

[Starflyerboy]

I probably wouldn't have been into this had I not seen her play live. She has a lot of passion and charisma and truly believes in her music. Many of these tracks were played live when I saw her 9 months or so ago when she toured with Xiu Xiu and I instantly recognised them again when I heard this record. She has such a distinct and fully formed sound that it's hard to ignore or pigeonhole for that matter.

[radio667]

Kind of creepy in the way Bob Dylan just stares at the back of your head without blinking during the whole review !!

[johngordino]

The new Times New Viking album is pretty sweet and well worth a review.

[SMFApples]

You are a great reviewer! I'd love to hear your thoughts on Dale Earnhardt Jr. Jr.'s EP "Horse Power".

[MuhizmadTheDarwish]

hey anthony, love the reviews i just got into watching this channel regularly, could you do me a huge favour and review Badlands the new Dirty Beaches LP when you get a chance, thanks man

[theneedledrop]

[danlikesmusicalot]

[theneedledrop]

@danlikesmusicalot it's probably gonna get taken down in 5 mins.

[e8ghtmileshigh1]

[huevitoisback]

Review: Emmure - Speaker of the dead or Born Of Osiris - The Discovery... no? No? Okey.

[jumboSnowman]

Can you review Digital Mystikz-Urban Ethics please?

Amon Tobin's "ISAM". I've never wanted something reviewed more.

[theneedledrop]

@TimeToTranscend It'll happen.

[DallasShalDune]

Extremely fair review. Loved it.

[theneedledrop]

@DallasShalDune Thank you. That means a lot. :-)

[Aydrikk]

[theneedledrop]

@ExpensiveTibet i lol'd
