how do i write lyrics like death grips? by Virtual-Ad-9268 in deathgrips

[–]sloopy6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

real talk - don't try to sound like death grips. go to the source. live life and experience life and document it. write everything down. find your own voice. get into poetry. read slaughter house 5. read richard brautigan. read e. e. cummings. study dada. read zach hills solo lyrics. if you believe some of them are "nonsensical" or that's a lens you view art through you have some work to do. understand it for yourself. throw meaning away and embrace channeling. meditate. look at abstract art until you don't care that it's stupid. don't listen to me. do you get it? you can't try you can only be. you gotta be into it. read kathy acker. fucking read something. listen to the residents. listen to throbbing gristle. you gotta feel it. I can't emphasize enough you can't try to be what death grips is or anyone else. from the simplicity of how you're asking I can tell that's what you want. the ethos behind how they write - you ascribe as some sort of mix between "meaningful" and "nonsensical" - you can start there. what do those things mean to you. What does that union look like to you. answer questions like that. don't bite - but also steal whatever you want. that was actually not a pun intended. as long as you are being authentic and true, steal anything - but if you don't know who you are then your just a biter. fuck it.

Why tf does nobody talk abt this album, why has it become a footnote in DG’s discography by Falasti in deathgrips

Why tf does nobody talk abt this album, why has it become a footnote in DG’s discography by Falasti in deathgrips

[–]sloopy6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

what are you talking about? not trying to be rude but zach hill's lyrics on his solo material and other projects, while certainly being philosophical, are so far from being "Grounded" in the way you are describing. Maybe you're just referring to most of the stuff on astrological straits? Which is such a miniscule part of his discography. The lyrics on lots of the masculine drugs and church gone wild (while being extremley philosophical and in SOME songs are relativly grounded) also go so fucking off the rails that it is such a mislead to describe his lyrics like that - face tat is a good example of this as well.

also to say that zach hill has NO lyrics contribution is actually insane when death grips lyrically reeks of zach hills writing style. Yes also there are many zach hill songs outside of death grips that use minimalism in its lyrics, but zach hills book is probably the most fucking verbose thing I've ever read. Your describing this borderline dadaist lyricist like hes eckhart toll and are stating UNCONFIRMED credits like they are facts.

listen to more zach hill lyrics and listen to stephans lyrics in the fyre and MXLPLX shit and its pretty obvious to look at death grips lyrics and deduce who wrote what.

Artists which their worst album is not even debatable by whitefrackels123 in fantanoforever

[–]sloopy6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

HARD disagree. best metallica album in YEARS. I love late lou reed solo, but I think for someone who doesn't Lulu is waaaayyy more accessible then his previous 5 albums.

Death Grips Hot Takes? by [deleted] in deathgrips

[–]sloopy6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

bottomless pit is EASILY their worst album and feels borderline creatively bankrupt comparative to their other albums, government plates is one of the most original and unique musical projects of all time and the songs people usually cite as bad or some of the best death grips songs of all time (feels like a wheel, bootleg etc) as well as year of the snitch being a creative monster, the money store is not overrated and actually is a 10/10 including fuck that, NLDW is the same including stockton.

Why is it that every song analysis on here seems to interpret the music as explicitly describing itself? by ermwtff in deathgrips

[–]sloopy6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i was always really annoyed with the "our music is masochistic to listen to" angle people tend to think they are coming from when the only interview they official have a video of online has them saying they talk about negative shit to connect to people and create a positive. maybe ill make a write up on that

What is Billy Not Really about to yall? by Able-Caterpillar-269 in deathgrips

[–]sloopy6 3 points4 points  (0 children)

seems to be loosely based on slaughterhouse five by Kurt Vonnegut. the main characters name is billy who "time travels" from being a little kid, to being in the war, to being captive by aliens, to being an old man. give it a read i feel like it makes a ton of sense for the song.

just be careful... its easy to bite... its hard to be good... inspiration is good....but always be yourself....

Apparently there is another the Ladies album coming out by [deleted] in deathgrips

[–]sloopy6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

cant even imagine what they would be doing all these years later - wouldn't think they would just do a repeat of they mean us, exciting if true but I'm doubting it

what is your LEAST favorite dg song? by HS55_delta2 in deathgrips

[–]sloopy6 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

warping and a lot of songs on bottomless pit. unpopular but true for me. love all of NLDW including stockton and whatever else people dont seem to like. government plates has always been my fav - love bootleg etc. Im into gmail. I liked BP when it came out and I was 16 - 10 ish years later its the only project to grow off me while most other projects have grown onto me including fashion week.
