Anyone know this band? This is seriously some of the weirdest/trippiest music I've ever heard.. Pitchfork loves them, apparently:

Um, vocally they are pretty impressive but their compostions really do not reach that same level. It can get pretty muddle

Magma are probably the best of the whole genre.

Of course they do.

What genre would that be, exactly?

I keep laughing so hard at the first part of the song in the OP. Fuck. Rest of the song is kind of cool though. Reminds me of Mr. Bungle

Don't think Pitchfork has ever particularly shown much interest in this band. I think they gave Angerr Shisspa a good review and that's it.
That aside, this band is fantastic.

Koenjihyakkei? On AP.net? What's going on? Also my 666 post is on a Koenjihyakkei thread. Coincidence?

There are too many jokes we can make about your cultural ignorance.

If this ever gets a reissue they'll probably BNM it, as they did with other left-field avant acts (Throbbing Gristle, Can etc)

I wouldn't doubt that.

Haha wanted to write the exact same thing.

Cultural ignorance? Because he doesn't know the genre? Oh come on. Ask almost anyone on this site what genre it is and they won't even know what the fuck they just listened to. Ask anyone, for that matter. Not knowing something about a specific type of music does not equal cultural ignorance.

Zeuhl. Basically a form of avant-garde experimental music.

Way too many elitists in this fucking site.

I wasn't referring to that. I was referring to him mocking that Pitchfork likes it. Implying this type of music is just hipster garbage to him. Hence the cultural ignorance.

We? You seem to be the only one that thinks so. And believe me, there are way more jokes to be made about your arrogant elitism. Don't worry though, in the future I'll be sure to take into account the number of douchebags in the thread before I pose any sort of question about a genre I'm curious about.

All I did was ask a question, get your head out of your ass.

EDIT: And I didn't imply anything besides the fact that Pitchfork likes weird music (sorry you read that as such a racial epithet?), which is 100% true.
