Date: February 24th, 2026 10:08 AM Author: Edmonton Oilers (Δ) This is Tame Impala's trajectory:
InnerSpeaker (2010): cool stoner rock no one's heard of. Most of the songs are about girls rejecting him and not knowing why. Subtly brilliant.
Lonerism (2012): psych rock and he scores a big indie hit with Elephant. Gets famous overnight. Flashes some pop songwriting chops but still only known by Pitchfork geeks
Currents (2015): breakout electropop megahits. Extremely polished, mostly an electronic dance record. So good it blows everything else out of the water. Perfect blend of his original sadness, psychedelic themes, and pure pop songwriting. He's now mainstream famous, no longer a stoner geek band. But this shit is overplayed, you hear it way too much in malls and restaurants and dive bars. Beaten over the head with it.
The Slow Rush (2020): a complete dud. He married some chick from high school, moved to Malibu, was on some Kanye album, hangs with Bieber, raids Biebers wardrobe. All his interviews are about how he does drugs every day and has an autistic obsession with music production. There's literally zero catchy melodies anymore and it's completely phoned in. The record label and the media pretend like this is an achievement but I've never met anyone who likes this album besides doodikoff whose opinion is wrong and immaterial.
Deadbeat (2025): it's just trash and everyone knows it. Totally disjointed. You can tell he tried a lot harder to make this one but it's a huge miss. He's utterly cooked by now. |

KP recently said he feels like it takes 2 years of touring for his new records to start fully resonating with audiences, or something like that. Maybe this will be like that? I loved this one and Currents instantly, but Slow Rush was more of a grower for me to understand the brilliance of the whole album

I’m an innerspeaker and lonerism and currents guy. He is the best ever at that throwback acid rock vibe. Amazing drummer. Etc
The new synth stuff is just…. Meh. Don’t hate it, but don’t have an urge to listen to it much
I’ll listen to the new one some kore today for you though man maybe I’ll come to it a little more.

I did a full listen this weekend. The new album just seems kinda low effort compared to the older stuff, which was highly complex. Not bad, I don't hate it, its Tame Impala, but I guess my prefernce is the older stuff.
If Currents was the OK Computer of Tame Impala, I don't see how the new stuff is the Kid A of Tame Impala.
Basically an electro beat with some synths, and then the signature vocals that he could do all day over any music. Kind of basic. A couple songs are catchy, but again, to me just not nearly as exciting or fresh - we've heard this stuff before many times

Date: February 24th, 2026 11:38 AM Author: Edmonton Oilers (Δ) Yeah the new stuff sucks. I don't know why you had to paste so much unreadable shit in a depressing format for the reader. But anyway he's wrong about The Slow Rush it will never catch on it's just boring. I think what people don't realize about him is that he was always a singles band. The deep cuts were never that great. I think people were really thrown off by how good Currents was that we thought he'd just be like that forever but it was act an outlier. On the first two records there's 2-3 great songs and the rest is mediocrity. The Slow Rush is the same level of mediocrity as the album tracks we were used to but it just doesn't have any hits. I guess Borderline was supposed to be a big hit but it's just whatever. Either way he ran out of earworms. If you want an album to be great you have to have earworms. I just randomly listened to Paperback Writer and I was blown away by the earworms. The Slow Rush and Deadbeat have none. So you can hem and haw about it all day but simply there aren't any catchy melodies. It's over. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5837893&forum_id=2#49691548) |

Date: February 24th, 2026 11:45 AM Author: michael doodikoff "On the first two records there's 2-3 great songs and the rest is mediocrity. "
ehh, dunno about that. Lonerism doesn't have a bad song (just did a quick spin, maybe "She Just Wont Believe Me" is kinda shit, but that's it), and I personally think that the overall quality of songs on it is just a tad below Currents. Its a fucking great album. Enders Toi is possibly my favorite Tame Impala song.
Innerspeaker is also great IMO. Not as strong overall as Lonerism, but it fucks. "Why Wont you Make Up Your Mind" is one of my favorite Tame Impala songs. |
|
Date: February 24th, 2026 11:51 AM Author: Edmonton Oilers (Δ) I disagree I think InnerSpeaker is way better than Lonerism. It Is Not Meant to Be is probably the best overall TI song. Agreed on Why Won't You Make Up Your Mind. Masterpiece. Desire Be, Desire Go, Jeremy's Storm are great. I think Lonerism isn't great. Elephant is a good single but it gets boring. Mind Mischief is a great riff and cool drum part but it's too repetitive. I think he has a problem where he's obsessed with loops. He does everything in Ableton so he gets stuck in loops. I just can't take the repetitiveness. The chorus is no good. It's just a riff without a great song around it. Feels Like We Only Go Backwards is a great song but his version isn't even the best version of that song. The Arctic Monkeys cover is way better. It's a great song but his rendition sucks. I think he's too in his own head. If he had just stayed writing psych rock I would have liked it a lot better. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5837893&forum_id=2#49691563) |

Date: February 24th, 2026 10:32 AM Author: Like Clavicular but maxing annoying screeds (gunneratttt) wtf. white rappers, especially back then, got way more airtime than black counterparts. eminem, beastie boys, limp bizkit, etc.
limp bizkits first three albums went multiplatinum. they were everywhere. you think media kikes were hamstringing them in favor of blacks? which ones?! and i guess limp bizkit was just *THAT GOOD* that they became a global hit despite (((the industry))) trying to fuck them? but then why were than on MTV every fucking day? |
|
Date: February 24th, 2026 10:55 AM Author: Edmonton Oilers (Δ) I'm pretty sure they made Fred Durst President of MTV or something at one point. Limp Bizkit was peak. It was everywhere. He was basically tapped to run an entire record label they thought he was the genius tastemaker who would evolve into a record mogul. They gave him the keys to the kingdom.
LB failed I think when their 4th record came out and it was a dud and people realized they were washed up creatively. They were essentially surpassed by all of the white rage hard rock acts of the 2000s. Korn, NIN, Godsmack, Metallica, Creed, Lamb of God, Slipknot ruled the roost and rap rock was out. RATM I think hung on in the public consciousness because of their superior musicianship.
Fred really was the weak link in the band. There's only so much of his whiney voice people can take. Wes was burned out too. Again that 4th record was a big let down and they seemed like they were done really trying at that point. They also never made a big comeback attempt and were content to slowly fade away. I think they just chilled and had families and did rich guy shit for a while. By the time they did come back it was so many years later and really a niche by that point. Culture moves fast it is what it is. I do think they basically achieved as much as they could for their talent level. I think they milked every drop. When they hit their creative wall it was painfully obvious they had said everything they were ever going to say. |

Date: February 24th, 2026 11:12 AM Author: Like Clavicular but maxing annoying screeds (gunneratttt) yeah, it's crazy to see someone saying LB and white rapers were disfavored over blacks. blacks complained all the time about the exact opposite. and there was more evidence in their favor -- fred durst and eminem were on TRL everyday. but i don't think anyone was disfavored for racial reasons, white people are the biggest consumer base and in the 90s white kids were buying and consuming more white artists, so these artists got the most screentime.
i think LB faded because nu metal rap rock fell out of favor as tastes changed. while some had more success than others, linkin park, korn, etc. never reached the heights they achieved in the heyday. i think if LB's 4th album was their best one it wouldn't have changed things -- tastes had just moved on from then. |
|
Date: February 24th, 2026 11:23 AM Author: Edmonton Oilers (Δ) Probably true.
I think though that Linkin Park was a lot bigger than LB in the end (no pun intended). They were a massive global phenomenon, they just didn't play into mainstream culture. I think because they didn't have a ton of personality. But when Chester died there were like millions of people in Eastern Europe mourning in public like it was actually crazy. They have billions upon billions of streams. They are still a huge deal I think they were just very quiet and businesslike about it while Fred and Marshall were huge pop culture icons. I think the thing about rock is it's still a really big deal but it just doesn't cross over into the mainstream culture. I do think there was a tipping point where the Jewish controlled media decided to brush rock music aside but it seemed like this happened in the 2010s. Now they really do fawn over anything Black but that wasn't the case before.
And I think it's also interesting to note that Eminem became this well respected elder statesman of rap. I think a lot of black people really like him and he crossed over the racial barrier. He's just so talented and always pays homage to black rappers and has the left wing political views. They all seem to really like him and adopt him and don't care that he's a white guy. He essentially earned universal respect in the culture. |
|
Date: February 24th, 2026 11:47 AM Author: Royce da 5'9 ((zurich is stained)) there's an ongoing debate in "the culture" right now about whether eminem is a GOAT-level rapper. i think it was commonly accepted that he was in the early - late 2000s, but people started shitting on him because he's "unrelatable" and "don't talk about real shit," but of course when he did an album on serious topics everyone shit on him. pretty much all respected rappers name him as one of the greats. random black doods on the internet however seem to like to shit on him these days.
he's unique in that he is truly hip hop. most white rappers move in and then leave to do rock once they get famous. even the beastie boys sorta did (but i chalk that up to their creativity), but eminem has an autistic obsession with rap and MCs.
eminem is objectively one of the best rappers and lyricists ever. you could make an argument for THE best. |
|
Date: February 24th, 2026 11:54 AM Author: Edmonton Oilers I have only ever met black dudes who worship Em. So I have never seen anybody pan him. I'm pretty sure the debate is over on whether he's GOATed. Blacks love him because he embraced the culture and never turned into Aerosmith. And he has always maintained that nogs invented it and deserve full credit. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5837893&forum_id=2#49691565) |

Date: February 24th, 2026 11:59 AM Author: Like Clavicular but maxing annoying screeds (gunneratttt) he's also culturally nigger and came by hip hop honestly. there's always suspicion with white rappers that they are appropriating black music. sometimes this is true as you mentioned with white rappers that move on once they maek it.
hard to argue eminem is did that, especially with hindsight and seeing how he remains dedicated to the genre. i think younger people that have only known him as a superstar are more likely to criticize him for this. also, musicians, especially ones making music about the struggles of being poor, young, etc., tend to fade as they are no longer relatable to the audience. especially more honest ones like eminem that aren't going to keeping making music about how they're still poor, young etc. when they're 50 and 30 years into being multi-platinum millionaires. |
|
Date: February 24th, 2026 11:48 AM Author: Like Clavicular but maxing annoying screeds (gunneratttt) jewish media didn't brush aside rock anymore than they brushed aside white or black rappers. especially during the period we're talking about when the influence of major media over what music gets played has massively declined.
in the 90s you needed mtv, radio, etc. to get popular exposure. much less so today. i think the decline of rock is more attributable to tastes changing as well. after all, nothing is stopping someone from listening to any artist on spotify, and people that enjoy rock still listen to rock. it's just that zoomers tend to listen to other stuff more. |
|
Date: February 24th, 2026 12:00 PM Author: Edmonton Oilers (Δ) Rock is #1 in every white majority English speaking country besides the United States. Odd case!
The crazy thing about the decline of rock is that by the numbers it's as popular as ever. But there is no new popular rock music (all due respect to Geese). It would be like if people quit playing baseball in the 90s but millions of people still watched replays of old World Series games and everyone knew everything about historical baseball teams, yet no one actually played baseball anymore. Classic rock has endured an arguably grown. Old rock music goes up in value every year as an asset. It's a growth asset. So the question isn't is rock still popular, but why no one can figure out how to make it anymore. If someone made a great rock record today it would be huge but no one can figure out how to do it. It has nothing to do with taste because people fire up Led Zeppelin and Creed every day en masse. No one can explain why the world has lost the ability to make new songs in a genre that's still incredibly popular. |

But bands like Pearl Jam still have hugely successful tours. Look at Linkin Park on Spotify they are still yuge. It's obviously a really popular genre. It's the #1 genre in Canada, the UK, and Australia. Tons of rock bands had massive tours in 2025. The All American Rejects made a big comeback. Deftones has struck with the youth. You can be popular with the fans and still make no appearances at the Grammys with booty shaking Megan Thee Stallion. Don't you realize that things can be huge with the fans but have nothing to do with the industry? Walk around any public area you will see rock merch everywhere. You're arguing that Joe Rogan isn't a big deal because he's not on CNN. It's laughable. Do you not see how comical your position is? Rock bands are like podcasters. They've got their own spaces. They don't need David Geffen anymore. Jews sign nigs to exploitive rap contracts then promote em on TV and then hope they overdose so their record goes to #1. That's the Zoomer Culture you're talking about. Lol. Get real rock is still enormous. The numbers don't lie. PE firms still scrambling to find every dollar they can to invest in the Credence catalog. How are these investments growing so fast if tastes have changed? You're out of touch lol. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5837893&forum_id=2#49691592) |

Rock was 100x healthier than it is now. U2 won album of the year. Nickelback was a global phenomenon too and they were also panned. Yeah critics were butt hurt about the real chest pounding white guy stuff. They were in love with Animal Collective and Rilo Kiley. We haven't had a rock economy as healthy as 2005 since 2005. It was a completely different paradigm unless you were a Gen Xer and your heroes were Bam and Wes Scantlin. Yes Gen X culture died when Millennials finished high school. That's just life.
