I feel rather lame for being that guy that's all like "you don't get it", but to me this movie is not about recreating a faithful version of the novel, which is 10x better than the film, but more about capturing the atmosphere which I think Lynch did an amazing job of. The recurring dream/spice hallucinations were

I get so tired of "rockists" crying "80s!!!" on anything with a synthesizer. It's an instrument that has been a fixture in pop music since the 70's and continuously since then. It's like somebody saying a rock record sounds "50s" because they're playing electric guitars. If you're looking for "badass rock jamz"

have you heard music from the 80's?

I think 11th Dimension is a great single- the rest of the record sounds really half-assed and just not good.

The record sounds great so far, I'm loving all the new shoegazy stuff coming out: this, A Sunny Day in Glasgow and Letting Up Despite Great Faults.

Really? woozy vintage synths, vocoded vocals, midtempo beats. Listen to BOC's "1969" back to back with "Sun Lips" off of BMSR's Dandelion Gum record and tell me they don't sound like they were made by the same band. BMSR is great, I have all their records.

BMSR or BOC?
Black Moth Super Rainbow has always sounded way too much like Geogaddi era Boards of Canada to me, but that being said I enjoy their jams. They are definitely stuck in a bit of a rut though, everything sounds very same-y, even Tobacco's solo record was basically indistinguishable from their other output

Great slab of hooky pop
There's nothing particularly deep about this record, but I haven't heard somebody who sounds so excited to be making music as Angelakos in a long time. Sorry it didn't work on you, you're missing out on a great time.

This doesn't exist.
I didn't watch the clip, I recommend ya'll do the same.

So stop asking!
