he likes experimental stuff?
mark kozelek hasn't released anything good in nearly a decade
the music itself isn't even experimental in any way though
he liked it a lot :)
hope this helps
nah that doesnt help at all actually
oh dear, i'm sorry to hear that
>implying vocal and lyrical experiments don't exist
>implying experimental literature doesn't exist
How's the uncultured pleb life treating you, bucko?
literally every positive rating Antwan Fantwan gives out is to an album he enjoyed listening to. he enjoyed listening to the album. what's so hard to understand?
I haven't heard the album, OP's description of it made it seem like an experimental album to me.
And that's exactly why that doesn't help at all is because it is with that knowledge as a starting point that I asked the question so I obviously wanted a more comprehensive answer than that.
maybe watch the review, he usually says why he likes it
But its not a piece of literature though its an album and he reviewed it as an album just as he has with every other thing he's reviewed on his channel. Vocal experimentation would still fall under the music being experimental and there is nothing experimental about the vocals at any point, its all been done before.

watch the review you fucking moron
shut the fuck up, incel
I'll admit its pretty good as a meme if you've got the time and patience for it
say that to my face and see what happens.
Mark’s last good album was April.
bump i love portugal up and this is correct
his review is shit and provides such light analysis of what he heard and mostly just explains to you what the album is.
shoulda been a 10
so you're saying you literally don't know English?
Yes
It’s a great album and very unique
Slow,minimal = not experimental
People have different tastes
now THAT is some real insight
As a pretty big Koz fan of both his old and current phases, to be honest, Common As Light ranks pretty low for me. It might be one of, if not my least favourite of his albums. It has a fair share of moments, but the bass/synth thing going on just doesn't do it for me, and the payoff hardly feels worth the runtime. Prefer both This Is My Dinner and IAWTDINO. So yeah, I don't get what Fantano saw in it either.
god bless ohio is fucking incredible
>he prefers This Is My Dinner to Common as Light
retard alert
no u
seriously tho the title track on This Is My Dinner alone is better than anything on Common as Light
okay the title track on This is My Dinner is based but God Bless Ohio is Mark's best song.
Chili Lemon Peanuts is better than TIMD as well
Anyway, why is this shit so underappreciated? It has the sweet nylon guitar of Admiral with the humor of his more recent albums and some of his best tracks like Young Love, Among The Leaves, Sunshine in Chicago, Red Poison, Elaine, and Black Kite
