BLACK COUNTRY NEW ROAD - ANTS FROM UP THERE / 2022 / NINJA TUNE / POST-ROCK

Y'all know this is just my opinion, right?

[IveGotToast]

"If it leads to a Black Country, then I'm gonna find a New Road."

Very poetic Anthony, but I'm not quite sure what you mean.

[olafowl]

This would've gotten a 10 if it was made by White Country, New Road

[jonathanlopez]

Would’ve been a 10/10 if they had more lyrics about Billie Eilish

[aurielazure]

Anthony, If it was called the place where he inserted the bladee you would’ve given it a 10.

[crazycrusher]

Its crazy seeing how far the band has matured in only a year, sad we wont see Isaac continue with them, but im still excited to see where they go from here

[videotapes]

This album is what millennials must have felt like when Arcade Fire came out with Funeral

[bevloy]

Not to be dramatic but The Place Where He Inserted The Blade is the best song ever made.

[christiankellerman]

This album is getting the best critical reception for an alternative album in a very very long time. Lowest score its gotten according to Wikipedia was an 8.4 from pitchfork. It has a 93 Metactitic score, which is ridiculous.

[floatzilla]

Snowglobes being your least favorite is a tragedy, but honestly, I don't think I could pick a least favorite.

[davidjones]

Damn, was really hoping we were gonna get the eighth album in history today.

Just such a shame we‘ll likely not get to hear these songs live in a packed audience. Was set to go to the show in Brooklyn in a couple of weeks :(. Wishing the best to Isaac. Legendary 2 album run.

60’s- philosophy of the world
70’s- tango (self titled)
80’s- hi, how are you?
90’s- in the aeroplane over the sea
00’s- the glow, pt. 2
10’s- twin fantasy
20’s- ants from up there

[Rishiyisus]

Was literally listen to snow globes and IF THAT IS THE WORST TRACK IT MEANS THAT THIS IS A MASTERPIECE
Btw I adore That track especially that part, but y'know opinions

[BradTasteInMusicOfficial]

This makes up for you saying Dunkey is the worst rapper since Kendrick Lamar.

[birchwoodtree]

I think your comparison of Isaac's delivery to David Byrne's is really interesting. I didn't think about it until you said it. Both have similar feelings, but I feel like their totally different and unique in that Byrne's anxiety is the type where you can't stay still, and Isaac's is the type where you don't want to move a muscle. I think the music that supports their lyrics and delivery really keys in to their slightly different styles. Good catch!

[alaminsourav]

It's ok Anthony, we know you're upset knowing that snow globes don't shake on their own

[yanagie]

I wished you'll give it a 10, but 9 is pretty good.
This is a masterpiece.

[realcamiam]

I theorize that this album will become a historical mark of the 20’s

[yearnpill]

You know the album is good when everyone is making genuine comments about the album instead of repetitive jokes that have been said 10000 times
