Killah tore down. 

What else is new? One of the best songs on the album did THAT

Personally I am obsessed with that industrial and gothic darkwave sound. I like listening to boy harsher, the cure, Siouxsie and the banshees, Depeche Mode, bauhaus etc….. was this performance inspired by that type of sound?
 

I’ve honestly been waiting her whole career for something like that. I know mayhem is way lighter although partly influenced but not necessarily that sound. 

Ooo mawmaw’s got TASTE

Now I wonder why she performed only the standard tracks... :oprah: MAYHEM's dead but not so dead or what? :wtfga: Tbh, I was mostly interested in seeing how she'd perform The Dead Dance as a grunge/rock/industrial song and she didn't do it at all :icant:

I do lowkey feel like not including the deluxe tracks (esp CSTH) was a missed opportunity, but I’m perchedt nonetheless

Never liked CSTH and I think apparently with the direction she took, giving the songs more of an industrial sound KFL wouldn't have "worked", as the reviews for ZB are showing, which is also a more funky/discoy song.. right? So cutting both songs probably was the smarter move I guess. But we shall see once the whole thing is out 🤗

“Cutting [CSTH] was the smarter choice” because you don’t like it is wild work :icant:. We’ll have to see about ZB, but I think if the style she translated ZB into was dark wave disco, I could actually see the groove of KFL working more in that vein (and also the verses have more of a structured melody, so it would be easier to adapt). But either way, I’m hyped for REQUIEM and I hope she releases it as a live album on streaming as well as a concert film

I’ll never understand why people want a live album 

Like, I’m not against it but a performance is meant to be watched? A live recording will never sound as good as a studio recording. 

ASIB really suffers from that. I almost never go back to Shallow or ARUTW and company because they’re live recordings

Noo, i didn't mean she should cut it because I don't like it 😅 but i see CSTH and KFL as a package, and as I said as of now I have a hard time imagining KFL in the supposed new style, so thinking if you cut one of them you have to cut the other as well. And she clearly thought CSTH fits over all, otherwise she wouldn't have replaced Grigio Gurl by it in the encore spot :enigma:

... have you heard that woman sing live? I prefer basically all of her live recordings over the studio version, IF they were properly recorded. Doesn't mean I don't listen to the album version every now and then, but she's such an impactful vocalist it's just a joy to listen to her go off.

Sometimes it’s good to get a mastered version of the live arrangements. Like I listen to Beyonce’s Homecoming and Abel’s Live at SoFi Stadium often because I like how they reworked the tracks.

Anyways I like that apparently The Weeknd’s Big Sleep was played during pre-show. I really love that song and it sounds almost theatrical.

Yes but the recordings don’t sound good even though her voice is excellent :max: it’s not a matter of talent, it’s a matter of recording

But the performances on ASIB are phenomenal and sound great lol. Ngl sometimes I prefer live mixing because elements don’t get so heavily buried in the mix because live engineering is usually centered around making every element audible.

See. But that's the reason why we want her to release it now as an live album. She clearly has the focus nowadays even more on quality than maybe 10 years ago, plus quite frankly she has the money and access to great audio Ingenieurs etc. I'm quite confident in the fact it would be a flawless product if she decides to go down that road.

Because the arrangements are insane. I loooove a good Live Studio Version Remix. Also I love living my fantasy and making up the staging in my head
