Atmosphere

[hpdrifter]

I tried to get some feedback from my resident hip hop expert, the Killa, but he is not responding to me.

Is anyone around here into Atmosphere? I had never heard of them/him and I caught a show at Bumbershoot right before Tribe and I thought it was great.

I would now like to buy an album. Someone tell me which is the one to get.

[b-grrrlie]

When I saw the title I thought this was about the Joy Division song....

[The Notorious LOL]

Atmosphere is like the Dashboard Confessional of rap. Slug can go fuck himself.

[hpdrifter]

Yeah, I kinda got the impression that he was kind of emo, not something I'm usually into. I do remember liking it, though.

Is it really emo? Please say it isn't.

[The Notorious LOL]

its extremely emo

[hpdrifter]

DAMMIT! What is it with this crap taking over everything?!

[HEIRESS]

I like atmosphere

god loves ugly and seven's travels are my favorite albums

I hated his last album though

I enjoy the Felt albums alot too (murs + atmosphere)

"dirty girl" is a total banger

[HEIRESS]

and hp, if you liked his live show them get one of his albums

apparently you like emo rap so fucking roll with it, who gives a fuck

[The Notorious LOL]

Heiress is great and all, but just generally ignore her when it comes to rapping music.

[HEIRESS]

*HUGS AND TUGS*

[Poster Boy]

yeah, he's aight. takes a certain mood though. his flow strikes me as pretentions.

Seven's Travels is good.

the last album is ok too.

[hpdrifter]

Okay, okay. I don't typically like emo stuff, but I liked the show so Imma give it a shot.

Given what I've read I'd go for God loves ugly, but some places said its hard to find.

I'll keep yall posted, I know you're on the edge of your freakin' seat!!!

[yeahwho]

So what else did you see at the bumbershoot? Did you go all 4 days? I worked all labor day weekend, I would of made Kanye West's show if I could of.

How was it? Did it get too crowded? Give a quick overview, none of my friends went that I know of, we've all gone in previous years and I have many tales to tell, but really how was it this year?

pray tell

[hpdrifter]

It was great, there seemed to be more people but somehow shorter lines for food, bathrooms, etc.

I saw all or part of the following sets (in no particular order)

The English Beat
Sparta
Tribe
Kanye
Atmosphere
Blue Scholars
Steve Miller
(heard, not saw) Blondie
Crystal Skulls
Dengue Fever
Dub Championz
Common Market
The New Pornographers
Nouvelle Vague

Non-music:
Tinkle (comedy show with David Cross and Todd Barry)
Flatstock 10 (rock poster exhibition)
Roller derby (roller derby)

Missed:
Best week ever live
Trapped in the Closet
Feist
Zac Galifianakis

and lots of other stuff, I wish I could have been in three places at once!

Not bad for $50.

[yeahwho]

Not bad at all for $50. I'll try it again next year, if my schedule allows for it. I always come back feeling better after the bumbershoot, I've already forgotten what I did at work those four days.

[Documad]

I guess that I have bad taste in rap like Heiress.

I like them better live. Last time I saw them, my friend fainted and I had to leave early. :( I thought about seeing them in Vancouver or Seattle because my trip happened to coincide with their shows. I stumbled into them in Australia when they did Big Day Out. So if I'd seen them in Canada, I'd be their number one fan. :)

[hpdrifter]

yeahwho, you are a total yahoo for missing bshoot.

Documad. It appears I disagree with NLOL on other stuff today too. So I feel less inclined to think it bad rap.

But I like the Streets too.

[yeahwho]

yeahwho, you are a total yahoo for missing bshoot.

What are you trying to say? You keep hpdrifting in and out.

There was not enough room at the bumbershoot for the two of us.

[The Notorious LOL]

It appears I disagree with NLOL on other stuff today too.



you're not supposed to point that out :( I have this Rush Limbaugh like grip on the board where I type and no one is allowed a rebuttal

Why do you keep saying the bumbershoot? Why? Its driving me crazy!

LOL, yeah, but Waynes World? Come on, you're on pills dude. Pills!

[HEIRESS]

NLOL HATES HIM BUT OMG GUYS IF U LIKE @TMOSPHERE THEN CHECK OUT J0SH MARTINEZ's RAPS TOO!

I recommend the songs:
"just a d00d"
"bc trees"
"another day another dollar"
"la rambla"
"im rollerbladin"

[The Notorious LOL]

you're on the ignore list for a few.

[yeahwho]

LOL, yeah, but Waynes World? Come on, you're on pills dude. Pills!

I'll never recover from those statements. Your making me feel like I'm one of Jerry's kids, I hate Labor Day weekend. :mad:

[hpdrifter]

Oh, don't give me the angry face.

Come on now, did that really merit the angry face?

Okay. I'm sorry.

[yeahwho]

:rolleyes:

now I'm all abuzz like "the bumblebee"

[Videodrome]

i was into them a while back after Lucy Ford dropped. i saw them live during their tour for seven's travels. i would suggest getting the lucy ford album. i'm not into god loves ugly, overcast, and seven's travels. i've never heard se7en and i thought their last album was cool for two days. it's all kind of difficult to listen to now though.

[hpdrifter]

:rolleyes:

now I'm all abuzz like "the bumblebee"

Now with the eye rolling.

Fine. I take it back.

[camo]

sevens travels is my fave atmosphere record. So I'd say check that one out for sure

[thegoodmrbrodie!]

god loves ugly is pretty good. yeah.

[Monsieur Decuts]

Breakestra was pretty grrrrrreat
so was Sharon Jones and the Dap Kings.
the Bumberella stage was where the action was at.

tribe did their thing for sure.

The last Atmosphere album is the best one in my opinion.
Hockey Hair , Hockey Hair!

[hpdrifter]

Whatup decuts?!?

You still in Sea-town? I thought you were making your way back to the east coast. Is that still on the horizon or are you and your adorable puppy staying here in the emerald city for a little while longer?

[mickill]

Illmatic.

ello bonjour!

We're still here, had to enjoy the Seattle summer before we go anywhere...no humidity here makes for a great summer. The move dates got pushed out so we should be here for a little while longer. I am looking forward to getting out of Belltown though, its been extra tasty crispy crackhead lately.

How's the 99 treating you?

PM me and we'll tawlk no big whoop
