Red Horse- Self-Titled ALBUM REVIEW

[VersusTheAir]

review some wold-freermasonry, mannn

[valentino0214]

STOP DOWNLOADING! Bands deserve to get paid. It doesn't make them "sellouts"..If your boss doesn't pay you for your job at Mc d's you are getting ripped off like downloaders rip off bands.Cool bands cant recoup costs from their labels and are getting dropped.We will be stuck with GaGa and Beiber cuz 12 yr olds pay for music more than "indie" kids do. It is also compromising the state of the internet.It's a human problem not a music problem.Give something back to music and the net.

[cyruseli]

I wasn't going to comment, but the "all music can be danced to" comment made it so I had to. I don't think people should think of this as music so much as art (using a musical medium, perhaps). You're not supposed to absorb it in 2 play-throughs, just like any good piece of art takes more than just a few seconds to really take in (except maybe predictable, obviously "good" art as well).

Now I'm not the biggest fan of this album or anything, but damn..art does not have to equal groovin', ya know?

[ultraviolence6655321]

Thank you for doing this review.

[Nutella4win]

.. is there an annoying drone album playing in the background ?

[volunteer31]

Im going to be honest i'm pretty open minded with music and enjoy many different types of it but i just dont see how this is music. I can't imagine why anyone would want to listen to this.

[evild1515]

the problem i have noise you cant dance to it. all music i ever heard you can dance. you some interesting points on the genre. like hearing different sounds of instuments.

[TruthDevours]

I've listened to a lot of noise over the last 10 years. Nothing new here. Yellow Swans, Gang Wizard, Lightning Bolt, Neon Hunk, Yip Yip, Beast Men, The Skaters, Vodka Soap, Acid Eagle, Double Leopards, BASTARD NOISE...etc. These are great bands. Red Horse does not impress. Check out James Ferraro's (The Skates) solo work. It really opened my eyes.

[sonofagunder]

@TruthDevours

namedrop namedrop namedrop ;)

[TruthDevours]

@sonofagunder

And? I think this band sucks. So I listed the ones I like to give a basis for my comparison. It's better than leaving a vacant drive-by comment like "this shit sux d00d" or "namedrop namedrop namedrop".

[carltesta]

If you like this album, you should also check out Eli Keszler's Cold Pin.

[drummermylo]

Please review The High Strung - Moxie Bravo!

Thanks. I sub to you and like your reviews a lot :)

[Hockyluv21]

I really enjoyed the first track off of this album. To say I received a psychedelic effect from the percussion on it is an incredible understatement. On first listen, it was really harsh and shrill to listen to, but the longer I went into the track, the chimes had an almost calming effect. I will check out the other parts tomorrow.

[MrSelfHater]

Off! shirt?

[velocityeleven]

what's with the font change?

[NonYaBiznessprod]

review the lakutis ep I'm in the forest

[Superape613]

Where can I buy this?

[dakrizagg]

Ive really been having fun listening to this album and just chopping it around on the soundcloud, i feel like im making my own spin on it lol

[deucebovel]

thank you for that review! really luv this stuff

[Steoandnoodles67]

I literally don't think I've ever heard anything quite like that first track. O.o

[Alen5th]

This really sounded like a bunch of screechy noises, I don't understand how people can enjoy listening to it.

[oxfordye]

@Alen5th

I suppose you'd listen to it and enjoy it the same way you would Ambient music. I guess it depends whether you enjoy soundscapes or not.

[Alen5th]

@oxfordye I listen to stuff like Emancipator and The Flashbulb, that's pretty enjoyable. But this...it just sounds like chaotic screeching noises. It does sound pretty nice at times, but half of the time some of the instruments used are unbearable to listen to.

[00bilz]

@Alen5th

Noise and Free Improv often aim to make a "heavy" atmosphere, and that can definitely include harsh sounds. It just depends how well-organized the sounds are that change its effect on the listener. You kind of have to fall into a trance when listening to this type of music.

[EddietehFace]

I HATE THE NEW FONT AHHHHH

[experimentaljetset93]

Los Campesinos - Hello Sadness

[enyafreak2007]

You should track review the lastest Charlift song, "Met Before", you haven't reviewed any 'snyth pop' in a while, and I thought this song might be a good one. As far as experimental music goes, I think Red Horse have gone to the limits of this genre, giving listeners something to think about although I don't quite know what that is...but I'll give it more listens.

[langerlord]

Have you changed your mind about the little Women LP from last year? I enjoyed this Red Horse album but I did feel it was like a diet version of Merzbows 1930.

[cheeseloueez]

review Sepalcure's new self-titled alum

[EtherealSun111]

You should review some later Prurient releases in the future. :)

[Icarnkthat]

that's not music. that's fucking noise

[skateNappreciate]

Tenhi- Saivo, beautiful neofolk band, if you guys are reading this comment, i highly recommend you search them here on youtube

[Liolar43]

I've never really listened to or enjoyed much noise music, but I quite enjoyed this music.I also like the simple, minimalistic cover; I think it'd make a nice addition to my growing vinyl collection!

Thanks, Anthony!

[fuckamericanidiot]

review an old xtc album to get more people to buy their records :)

[SymphonyOfSerenity]

Please review Cormorant's Dwellings. :(

[jrinredcar]

Red Horse... Cool band name

[lucpallot]

Please review: Mickey Moonlight - And The Time Axis Manipulation Corporation.

Ta!

[nevikselarom]

Anthony Please Review Acton Bronson's "Dr. Lecter"

[daddyfatsaxohten]

Excellent review, as a noise rock fan I'll definitely be checking this out

[thejailer718]

Not recommending anything to review, rather, one not to review: Lupe Fiasco's Friend of the People. It's awful. Don't waste time and whatever the fuck bandwith is by filming and posting a review of a terrible mixtape.

[TheSethIkrass]

@thejailer718 TRANSLATION: all music that I do not personally like is overrated because I only like good things and if I don't like it, it is because it is crap and people who do like it are idiots.

[redrider327]

I've been a long time Needle Drop and I would be very interested in your thoughts on Nero's "Welcome Reality" Album. Thanks =)

[sheldonmosbeck]

Please review more music like this.

[theblastedmohab]

nice review. will def give this a listen

[samiam554]

Sigur Rós- Inni

all of these comments are requests but you should really, really listen to it (and review it!)

[HasBeenProductions01]

@samiam554 I'm sure he's listened to that.

[thewetflarp]

Trash Talk - Awake EP

You've gotta love some powerviolence.

[cucumbersloth]

I know it's from a while ago, but can you review Mr. Heavenly?

[SoAsIWasSaying]

Please review the new Tycho album! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE

[cwieland225]

Hey Anthony, how about a review of Vildhjarta's new album--Masstaden. Are you familiar with "djent"? In fact, you could do a video about the djent sound. I would call it a subgenre of metal that is gaining popularity.

[Nic33rd]

Very industrial, I found. I used to be into noise (Andrew WK's Ancient Art of Boar album TORR, for example) but I seem to have moved past it. I can appreciate it, but it doesn't grab me as much as it used to.

[nanayawAT]

u mean less feeling

fast forwarded through the whole thing

[strathm]

the more free your form of artistic expression seems, the more confining the set of rules you apply to it. more directions mean more dead ends. but when you get the shit right, it's delectable.

[ExtremePlatypus]

New font for the video? How dare you change something minor.

[ChuckxBartowski]

Under the mistletoe.

please.

please.

[sergio1612]

Anthony, I've given a try almost every metal album you've reviewed, I've even learned to enjoy Death Grips, but please, don't you EVER do this to me again. K?

[G4700]

Lupe Fiasco Friend Of The People: I Fight Evil DEFF REVIEW MAN!!its not lasers! i promise you'll like it

[rockomundo]

It sounds like being trapped inside a giant machine that's part garbage collector part death trap. The more you listen, the deeper you go.

[madnattymusic]

undun, the roots

[CrimsonKing88]

Do a review of Mastiphal - Parvzya

[jfitz1431]

wow thanks for reviewing this. I am intrigued by it.

[bdebramo]

i was really excited this being a new artist, but no.... just no. lol im really surprised you appreciated this so much.

[TheColeWorld1]

Lupe Fiasco

Friend of the People

REVIEW PLEASE!

[freakshow2000]

this is..........NOT art, and a huge waste of effort. "would you like fries with that/" should have made the "album" as it is a real part of the future of these two guys. There's the short truth of it, like it or not.

[MystiCxSnipeR]

cunt

[BodyDoublesBand]

Body Doubles- "Wish Me Luck, I Aim To Please EP"... Juuuussssttt sayin' :)

[Mishogyny]

I love that album art.

[bdebramo]

@Mishogyny why? :)

[aer0smith1]

Can you please review the new Black Keys album, El Camino, when it comes out? I know its probably at the top of your list ;D

[WishItToTheCornfield]

If you like shrill, abrasive noise, I can record my mom bitching about me doing nothing with my life. You're sure to give it a light to decent 9.

[bonetogo]

[ericmsandoval]

@Mithicus You should review albums on Youtube. You'd be great at it.

[MusubiMan]

Dumbfoundead - DFD

[gsboss]

i say you have a week where you review older albums like beach boys or maybe even neutral

milk

[TheIvoryrocker]

@gsboss ive been thinking that, he could give his opinion on controversial albums or classics.

[eslamdaoud]

i didn't really like this, it really is noise

[Burleegame]

Review Imaginaerum by Nightwish

[RideLXbindings]

[IncoherentCommenter]

[UniversalMind08]

HELL YEAH NOISE.

[o0LanternLight0o]

SubRosa-No Help For The Mighty Ones

[polykuromu]

I'm curious to know your opinion on any of Charlotte Gainsbourg's recent tracks—White Telephone, Terrible Angels, or Paradisco, etc. I believe they'll be released on an album soon enough, one that was also produced by Beck. :)

[aotkpta133]

i feel you should do more harsh noise reviews. like Merzbow's newest album Surabhi.

[samuelbellpierre]

WHAT'S SO FUNNY?!?!

[SStockstill]

you need some intro music

[TheFFBrothers]

@ScurvyJohn Because The Desanctification is the most recent of the 2-part album series type thing. So @theneedledrop should review that!

[Adam420Dreadz]

Review Dutch , or Vespertina.

[UPaDRIVWAY]

Thank you so much for reviewing something noisy and experimental!

Music like this is really interesting to me.

[Interitus86]

first thought when i read the title of the video: d..did pitchfork review red horse!? but no, pretty cool you did it.

[FoamyShowme]

i really like your description on 'how to enjoy this.' it answers a lot of the "why would you listen to this?" questions

[raindelayshowfan1]

Reminded me of Music Improvisation Company, only a little better.

[Chillwaving]

o gawd dats noisy...

[randompurplelemonade]

Lustmordian is totally a real word now.

[NihilismSauce21]

Godspeed you! Black emperor - Antenna to heaven



[PhantomBunny888]

I'm surprised that the band name Red Horse wasn't taken already...

[steff1992]

There's a new Merzbow album coming out next moth. Review that when it comes out! :D

[gregmenti]

[blissfulbeautyxoxo]

lustmordian! yes you said it

[SoAsIWasSaying]

He's trapped in the belly of this horrible machine.

And the machine is bleeding to death.

[Broyale26]

@SoAsIWasSaying

Bleeding from its butt.

[SoAsIWasSaying]

@Broyale26 Go listen to The Dead Flag Blues and you'll understand.

[dirt0jumping]

Review "Believers" by AA Bondy

[Samodrei]

anthony review that ford focus in the intro

[TheDildoGod]

Yo anthony, i'm really happy for you, and imma let you finish, but Justin Bieber is the best noise album ever, EVER !

[pyroblondie]

@TheDildoGod oh god that was good

[Linkous12]

Reminds me of Jandek's live performances.

[Lithiunn]

sorry but where can i download this album for free? it is legally free right?

[smeerios]

Review new Eligh and AmpLive (of Zion I) album called 'Therapy at 3'

[Tyntje606]

Anthony!!! here is some Dutch music I recommend: Blaudzun and Pete Philly. You give me good music, I give you! Just listen to a few songs, They are 2 amazing artists. Oh and 'de jeugd van tegenwoordig' is something you might like aswell!

[ardotadot]

strong 6???

i thought Birchville Cat Motel was "out there" until now, to say this is "all over the place" is not accurate at all. i loved it... most noise or free jazz albums just dont have the textures and the dynamics this album has and when i say free jazz i mean Sun Ra or that weird Pat Metheny/Derek Bailey "the sign of 4" album. This is an amazing album which to me blurs the line between free jazz, noise and electracoustic composition. i´d give it a strong 8. bad Fantano! baaad Fantano! :)

[psychedelicufo]

I had a egg salad sandwich for lunch today.

...And that was my TND comment for today.

[crashchild34]

[cisneros927]

Review: Eligh & Amplive - Therapy At 3

[phillo12]

OH I GET IT. STOP ME IN MY "TRACKS" HAHAHAHA :3

[thegentlemenseraph]

Gave the tracks a listen. I like part two the best, really got that "busted machine" vibe, I started seeing it really vividly in my head.

[starofcctv94]

i got to say this is truly unlistenable and i dont mind experimental music

[ultama121]

@starofcctv94

For music like this, the difference between "I don't mind" and "I actively enjoy" is everything. There are no pedestrian qualities that you can enjoy just by passively listening to the music.

[lwjohnson94]

Friend...of.......the People!!!!

[ScurvyJohn]

Y U NO REVIEW BLUT AUS NORD 777 SECT(S)/THE DESANTICATION????

[ConstantContrast]

You need to review some neoclassic. Peter Broderick - Music for Confluence in my opinion is a great record. light 8.

[RayasNegroOvejas]

@ConstantContrast

Agree. Hauschka & Hildur Gudnadottir - "Pan Tone" and Nils Frahm & Anne Müller - "7fingers" are very good, too.

[thegentlemenseraph]

Protest the Hero - Scurrilous pleeease!

[yankeehatr07]

[dgmcl3284]

Apparatjik - Square Peg In A Round Hole
