Man, I fucking love Shadow. I probably listen to Shadow more than any other artist, I Listen to Shadow all day everyday! When i seen him live, i jumped up on stage like a little school girl at a bieber concert so i could get him to sign my wallet and shake the hand/black guy high five the hand that worked so tirelessly on music that brought me so much joy. That being said, this is awful, it really is. I can accept that its my personal opinion, and music is subjective yada yada, but having listened to Shadow's entire discography I can say that this makes its way to the bottom like a bowling ball in a swimming pool.
Shadow always bumps his gums about how he's always looking to change things up, and how he's an innovator, but really his fans just want something worthy of sitting next to Entroducing or The Private Press, but this, this is far far, Narnia far from it.
I'm surprised and unsurprised by all the hate on this song. I actually really love this song, and while it's not like some of his other stuff I still think it's good in a very different way. It sounds like like he's mixing trip-hop w/ experimental electronic. Kinda like Beat Break by Peas.
Right after the vocals, that gunshot sounding thing would be awesome if it continued as a kick drum for drum beat. I still like the more experimental method Shadow used but it just bothers me for some reason lol.
