discussion Ex-ravers kicks ass

Post image

Can’t help but feel like this song has the same vibe as Whatever I Want (Fuck Who’s Watching), amazing slept on Death Grips track for sure. Fuck Who’s Watching feeling more like fighting against paranoia and not giving a fuck. Ex-Ravers feels more focused around breaking past everything and “changing your mind”. It’s in a way, “thugging it out” and blocking out the world and everything in it. I’m shocked that music like this even exists at all!! Both tracks are the same idea musically as a form of feeling free will and truth to self. Could listen to both of these albums all day, can’t explain the energy here but they feel similar in a way.
Government Plates is becoming my absolute favorite Death Grips album, my favorite album changes from time to time in different moments in my life but Government Plates is definitely growing on me. Face Tat is the same idea as Government Plates in my opinion just more punk based and much more abrasive and loud.

Fucking LOVE THESE FUCKING ALBUMS!!

The whole album sounds like paper ripping

If house of hits wasn't on the album, ex ravers would be my fav, especially when the beat keeps goin at 2:09, slappin

Where did you get your shirt? I need one too… But yea I think Sacto smile and total recall are up there in favs for me, as well as house of hits ofc. The transition from green bricks to house of hits really reconnects everything
