The guy above is an idiot, and probably a teenager. His dumb attitude and superiority complex is why people dislike hipsters. He's also going to look like a big moron real soon.

For starters - there's Flaming Lips influence on much of this record - but only about a third of it. The criticism does not cover the other 14 or so songs.

This is not a proven formula by any means - musically, promotionally, etc. And if you are arguing musically you have to recognize that if this formula exists, yet all the people who try to do it fail to succeed, well maybe that's because it's not as easy as you think?

This shit has nothing to do with SJW's. If you actually listened to the songs you'd realize that Miley is on your team.

Lastly, this is a great record. Miley Cyrus, of all people, has put together a fucking classic double-lp and basically wrecked the careers of a dozen pretenders by absolutely destroying them on record.

To be honest - if this were a flaming lips record, it'd be the best one they've put out in a decade. In that case Wayne Coyne (who didn't even write most Flaming Lips music), would be thanking Miley Cyrus for making him relevant again. If the Flaming Lips put out a Greatest Hits record, it would be almost this interesting.

In conclusion - the user above has not actually listened to this record, and does not know what they are talking about, and also does not have good taste in music. They are unduly influenced by the media they consume that has given them a false view of a musician based on persona, rumors, outside judgement, etc. When presented with the opportunity to judge an artist by their artistic output they have failed to give it a proper shake, and failed to recognize that it is a stunning achievement. Fortunately, none of us have to give a shit and we can have a laugh. If you go look at, say, Youtube comments on every song, you'll see that a wide swath of every demographic is already figuring out that this is the record of the year.

The guy above white knighting Miley Cyrus is an idiot who is just butthurt because I called him out trying to pretend to be a NY-er. Silly Cali faggot needs to STFU and go back to fellating useless pop stars.


and also does not have good taste in music.

Seeing as you know nothing of my taste in music other than my hatred for these poseurs, I can only conclude that you have bad taste in logic. Try harder.. maybe ask washed-up wayne for some tips on how to be "experimental" -- SPORK!!


Ok... I really should stop reading this, but it's like a car wreck — I can't look away

This shit has nothing to do with SJW's

No shit. Do you know how comparisons work? Something can be compared to something else without being related to it.

I can't deal with trying to respond to the rest. It's all based on ignorance and pride all wrapped up in cliched talking points... in other words, just a bunch of faggotry that should be ignored. Which is what I'm doing starting right now.

white knighting? you think i want to fuck Miley Cyrus?

straight-up: I think she put out a really good record and I want people to check it out because they'll enjoy it. It's a shock that it's coming from her! that's part of what makes it all so interesting.
