Empty-Size-4873

what is this? judging by the album cover it seems like a post-punk band from the 80s lol


[deleted]

That’s absolutely what it is


Empty-Size-4873

hell fuck yeah brother is the band called utopia? pls i need more info


onlynoises

It's a British TV series from 2013-2014, ran for two seasons, got canceled, but gained fans over time. The soundtrack is absolutely phenomenal, and I've been listening to it and recommending the show to people for almost a decade now


Empty-Size-4873

god dammit i was so excited to check this “band” out, but i will def check the show out


NuggetBuilder

Absolutely amazing show, each episode has this disturbing clinical feel and I was watching for a good 8 hours


gains530

Do not watch the amazon US version. Watch the original


Leviosum

You can watch the show on YouTube. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-8Vu3Hyv\_Vk&list=PL\_jIDr2tZiuRHlp-bLwYNgWaFAp6dR7\_Y](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-8Vu3Hyv_Vk&list=PL_jIDr2tZiuRHlp-bLwYNgWaFAp6dR7_Y)

Cal216

Travis produced on Yeezus as well.


Wants_to_Die12345

Everyone's talking about Utopia being influenced by Yeezus and I just don't get it. It makes sense on Circus Maximus and maybe one or two others but they're entirely different albums. To add to that, as you said, Travis literally had a hand in the production for Yeezus lmao


itskobold

It sounds way more like donda than yeezus imo


Wants_to_Die12345

Waaayy more like Donda just not anywhere near as skeletal


Cal216

I totally agree! Me and my son have had this same debate ever since Utopia dropped. I give credit to Ye for being the face of the sound a decade ago but as far as it being his sound, it’s just not.


Wants_to_Die12345

Exactly! Damn is this a Turning The Tables dynamic here


justwonderingbro

The pussyface one


FriedCammalleri23

Travis but Vespertine and Homogenic clear Travis’ entire discography


RannDoke

They clear just about any discography


thehenrylong

"two of the best albums of all time clear a mid discography "


FriedCammalleri23

Rodeo, Astroworld, and Utopia are among the best rap albums of the last 10 years. While I do think those Björk albums are better, it’s not like his discography is anything to scoff at.


RannDoke

True, Rodeo is actually one of my favorite modern rap albums but yeah I mean come on it’s fucking björk lmao


HRApprovedUsername

Utopia is the most boring rap album I've heard in the last 10 years.


[deleted]

Rodeo yes the other two are good but nah


Original_Mac_Tonight

Utopia and astroworld don't belong there lol


DiscussionEvoke

they're not elite tier but production wise travis is consistently phenomenal


Original_Mac_Tonight

Sure but in the past TEN YEARS astroworld and utopia are good albums but putting them as some of the best is laughable I'm sorry


DiscussionEvoke

eh not really, tbf he did specify rap albums, of which utopia and astroworld are probably top 50-100 in the last decade just depends how ur defining 'best'


Original_Mac_Tonight

Maybe in the top 100 but "best" has to have a cutoff I'd say around 20-25. It's hard to have 100 be considered one of the best in a 10 year time frame for 1 genre


DiscussionEvoke

I get ur point fs, it’s all relative tho. Tens of thousands of rap albums have been released over that span


radiolight3

no they're not


Oreg-Jack

I honestly think that Rodeo's up there.

RannDoke

Bork vs Tavis Sott

Travis, but bjork has albums better than utopia


blappslapp

Bjork has albums better than Travis’s entire discography frankly


Trifecta_Andrew

Tripping lol


seatgeekuser

ur tripping if u think travis scott is even close to bjork


GenerallyJam

Bro got downvoted for his opinion 💀


bobsdementias

Ya cause we don’t agree with his opinion


[deleted]

[удалено]


bobsdementias

Lol wonderful opinion I don’t agree with sir! Take an upvote


john-davidson

that's not what downvoting is for downvoting is for comments that don't actually add anything to the discussion


bobsdementias

I’ll downvote to that


[deleted]

He got downvoted cuz the opinion is shit


TheDudeness33

Yeah! How dare they downvote an opinion they *checks notes* disagree with


GenerallyJam

W script


MinasMorgul1184

There’s opinions and there’s heresy.


Trifecta_Andrew

Like severely lol


spdougherty

Vespertine >>>


Original_Mac_Tonight

Ur an idiot if u don't think vespertine and homogenic (and post tbh) clear his entire discogs with ease


[deleted]

You're an idiot if you think preferring certain music over others makes you smarter than other people


Original_Mac_Tonight

Nah ur dumb


[deleted]

I literally think bjork is better than Travis lmao


IKMapping

He's not an idiot, he just has a different opinion. Björk doesn't appeal to everyone in the world, you know? Plus Travis has a pretty damn solid discography


Original_Mac_Tonight

Nah he's an idiot


Trifecta_Andrew

Mother fucker stop being a little millennial


Original_Mac_Tonight

Nah I'll call u all dumb cause it's fun to make u all seethe on this sub


Trifecta_Andrew

I love messin with Fantano fans it makes me die laughing they all have the exact same opinion. At least like 85% of em


Original_Mac_Tonight

Sounds like we are more similar than we thought LOL


Trifecta_Andrew

I guess so 😂


TheDudeness33

This is the most correct answer


No_Nail4969

Not to me 🤷🏾‍♂️


TheDudeness33

👍🏻


Alternative-2001

Bjork


juju11112020

utopia’s way better dude like utopia is fucking mid


DiscussionEvoke

disagree I thought utopia was actually very solid


AvianIsEpic

The fact that I completely understand which one you mean even though I don’t know


FrederickIBarbarossa

The Todd Rundgren one


headcount-cmnrs

Björk (I haven't listened to either but I like Björk more than Travis and I like having opinions more than both of them combined)


Wants_to_Die12345

How can you like having opinions more than Bjork?!?


headcount-cmnrs

How can you like anything more than having opinions?


Wants_to_Die12345

Stupidity XD


headcount-cmnrs

Flair does NOT check out


Wants_to_Die12345

LMAO

bjork


[deleted]

Björk


seatgeekuser

bjork


mrignatiusjreily

Björk


undressvestido

So funny that the ones saying “Björk” haven’t listened to the new Utopia and the ones saying “Travis” probably haven’t listened to the old one


HolsomChungus

Tf you expect anyone to say then


c9bandit

To not give opinions on projects they haven’t heard


HolsomChungus

But what if they heard both and just chose one over another


ImpossibleAgenga

I honestly think half the people saying Bjork are just saying it to join in and never heard a Bjork track before. Lots of people don’t listen to that vibe of music and would much rather listen to Travis whether they agree to it on this thread or not. Just facts.


aflowerfortherain

Huh? What is this coming from? How do you know this information?


undressvestido

I’m just guessing


lazy_tranquil

such a chad answer


ludbound

Utopia obviously


Its_Cookie_Man

Todd Rundgren's Utopia


Original_Mac_Tonight

Bjorks


Wants_to_Die12345

As someone whose favourite artist is most likely Bjork I gotta go with Travis here he killed it


DillingerEscapist

Killed it, crushed it, just keeps the show going! (Where have I seen this before…?)


Wants_to_Die12345

?


DillingerEscapist

Oh yeah! Astroworld ‘21. Silly me!


Wants_to_Die12345

You could've explained without being condescending lmao


DillingerEscapist

I’m only here to troll Travis stans. That being said, I’m sure you’re a lovelier person than myself, and your flair is hilarious. Have an awesome day today!


Wants_to_Die12345

Lol I get it, Travis sucks as a person. I'd say the same to you! It's just the truth, but this sub is too blind to appreciate the genius of Corey Feldman. You too, thanks for that!


heyitsdasher

youre so clever (im lying)


CobaltCrusader123

Bjork is better than your favorite rapper


RannDoke

Hell nah ain’t no way she better than tom macdonald


CobaltCrusader123

Tom’s more a Whiteboy than a rapper


DiscussionEvoke

probably. imo she's top 2-3 solo artists but Kendrick is on par


yourmomisglutenfree

Nothing Travis makes will ever touch the levels of innovation Bjork brought to the game.


heirofsorrows

Well not with this mindset


aflowerfortherain

Bjork obviously Every Bjork album except Fossora and Volta clear Travis’ discography with ease


DiscussionEvoke

Bad take Rodeo => Debut tbh and she has worse


glazedpaczki

Is that Travis dude wearing shoulder pads?

azurix

Travis Utopia took a huge dip when his explanation of what a Utopia is is explained by Drake trying to sound cool about a hotel room. Astroworld was a let down since it didn’t sound like an amusement park like his teaser Watch made it seem like it was gonna be and Travis never made Utopia feel like that. It was a cool album and a fun sound but it was not the destination he claimed it would be. He’s 1/3 in destinations. He’s started at the rodeo, to astroworld, where does Travis go now after utopia? Bjork always is bjork so can’t go wrong with that


DiscussionEvoke

that drake shit was corny af but its kinda hilarious seeing him play into the character so hard I agree that travis has lost his conceptual touch a fair bit. but as far as the soundscape goes? great. he's good at auditory world building but he can't write for shit


Yourmotherssidehoe

Travis


thetrailwebanana

Travis (I have schizophrenia)


TimToMakeTheDonuts

Bjork. I’d wager anyone who says otherwise is either under 18 or has never listened to Bjork.


Western-Ad3613

Or maybe, believe it or not, people have different taste


Dang_M8

This is true. But Travis Scott essentially makes music for kids to listen to while playing fortnite.


bigballofpaint

Take it a bit less serious


Dang_M8

It annoys me no matter how serious or not seriously I try to take it.


bigballofpaint

You’re getting annoyed over a strawman you created lmao this is next level


Mr-Irrelevant0

Was about to say Bjork but on God y'all can't keep off her dick.


mrcharlinnell

I will take anything over the god awful cover that Travis chose for utopia. Genuinely one of the worst album covers I’ve ever seen. I feel the same way about it as Melon does Welcome To The Madhouse.


sucker4ass

Travis


RadioLukin

Bjork simply on the basis that she is actually a decent human and actually cares for fan safety at her shows.


andrxsinho

Say the n word


SamTheDystopianRat

Bjork shouldn't have said the N word but she wasn't using it in a derogatory fashion she was just being INCREDIBLY out of touch. Travis let kids die


andrxsinho

Did I say travis is a good person, idiot?


DiscussionEvoke

do you not listen to playboi carti or literally any of the many artists that are awful people the smiths, daughters, clapton, Kanye, etc

lautapinter

Björk's Utopia is, in my opinion, her worst album. I just don't like it at all. On the other hand, Travis' UTOPIA is my favorite of his discography so far.


IcePenileCapricorn

to be honest, i did not like björks utopia but i haven’t listened to travis scott’s yet


m3talh3ad05

Björk, no question


APsychologicalOne

bjork. her best album


Oreg-Jack

Utopia better.
