i like where is aes is going.

i dont know if hes eased back on the complexity of his lyrics (hyperboles/metaphors) , but i can kind of understand him now. and the beats are getting better as well (not hating on his older sh*t)

lyrics from track on skelethon

"Ayo, turnbuckle curfew in a hullabaloo menagerie/ Count her twice in two polaroids, blatant cockamamie cacophony/ If weגd of only twinkled twilight, Telemachia skin brigade/ Before they relegate the playground to a cobblestone arcade/ Profuse shimmer keloid, dentata in a diner/ Stallone alone in freezers placing ribeyes over shiners/ Zagadka studded banter, solipsistic gluten fiend/ I dragged the hobbled heart from Hades through the hoodied Bape regime/ Oligarchy in subway car, platonic Jansport thievery/ With a cluttered stone-faced grimace, askin Medusa if sheגs feelin me/ All I ever wanted was pickaxe and a purpose/ Percocets and pollywogs, to perforate the surface/ Last night I dripped fragrance on a dandelion so frivolous/ like the razzmatazz and majesty of a manateeגs indifference"

They're not, but you're fronting if you think he could never in his life have penned a few of those couplets. Sort of sounds like the shit he comes with on guest spots sometimes.

Zero Dark Thirty Lyrics

Here are the lyrics to my latest single, Zero Dark Thirty

Unsigned hype, front line aeronauts flurry, zero dark thirty, zero friends, minotaur-fugly stepchild, evoke lunch jumped over plunging necklines, up, beside tongue-tied hungry enzymes, devolved into mothmen munching textiles, punisher, out past go-time, back 10 fried worms chubbier, brown grass both sides, canned food, manmade tools, Lanacane, band-aids, mandrake root, bindle on a broom stick, pancaked shoes and handshake-proof campaign, canגt lose, canגt gain, smoke out moles like a force of nature, pray fortune return to his favor, swiftly, maybe in the form of a nest egg, maybe in the form of a tesla death ray, or a solid gold scene with something better to celebrate than powder on your face like a flat foot on jelly day, m-m-moral compass all batshit, spinning in the shadows of immoral magnets, are we supporting the artist or enabling the addict, I mean, I guess it matters to me, I wish it mattered to you, how a thousand virtues, kick the same bucket like chinatown turtles

Roving packs of elusive young, become choke-lore writers over boosted drums, in the terrifying face of a future tongue, Down from a huntable surplus to one

(check his own) Breakneck pulse over colors in a drain that emote sugar skulls in the rain, flower-eyes melting, guided by a levy made of bath tiles tilting, quarter up and headed for the kill screen, no corner cut, no build team, only a particularly menacing, angle perpendicular to everything, boys room cherry bomb, boy/goon very much runninג with the devil in the mellotron, hello, hereגs where a tale of caution, pounds coffin nails to bootlegs of Hawkwind, saw tooth, nevermind straw to gold, spin hearts on sleeves into heads on poles, arm in the maw, fish out pith like a business card from a jar at the mall, A-alike androids dreaming of carbon applause get stuffed with cartoon cigars, cold pack, neti-pot, home to roost, around folk backed into what they most lampoon, shook to the fevered brow and broke ankles, daisy, declawed pound, no thank you, fade me, failed all basic training but I spent a couple groundhogs days with a changeling, silouhette the god last cigarette, anything less would be re-god-damn-diculous

I suspect that album will be divisive. I for one am looking forward to it.

From this:

I guess the album with Kimya Dawson comes out some time after his solo.

this is different. sounds interesting.

i like how everyone (mostly everyone) on def jux is kind of killing it (or going to be) right now.

theyre doing better without the label or something

Appleseed autograhed for $10? Seems like a good deal.

A bit early for any beef/falling out theories but I am curious what people think this song is about.
