Dean Blunt - Black Metal ALBUM REVIEW
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 29 сен 2024
- Listen: • Dean Blunt - '50 Cent'
UK singer-songwriter and musical oddball Dean Blunt releases an album that's difficult to put into words. While simple in composition and sloppy in execution, the album still manages to draw up some real feelings of isolation, melancholy, and frustration.

Y'all know this is just my opinion, right? What did you think of this album? Love it? Hate it? Why? What should I review next, eh? 
Видеоклипы
i think the black cover art fits this album perfectly. i guess im imagining all of the songs being performed in pitch black darkness, and it's cool.
Funnily enough I saw Dean play not too long ago and he did play quite a few songs in pitch black darkness. He then turned on a strobe and began destroying some subwoofers
It was both the most boring and most mind blowing concert I've been to
Stretching it a bit lil bro
Love his voice, sounds laconic in the best way. "Forever" is a beast, sonically. Really unique. This, I can imagine, will grow with re-listens.
Dean blunt’s music is so beautiful
Agreed
Can you review the new Foo Fighters album Sonic Highways.
+89gasper ahahahahahah
Can you review The Long Procession by Amia Venera Landscape? I'd love to see you review it and get your opinion on it. I find it an amazing metalcore/post-metal/post-hardcore/prog/etc release.
Why hello there business music nerd idk know if i can request but can you review "skaters"
It’s November 2019 and Crack Magazine just voted Black Metal Number #1 Album of the Decade 😃 Issa madness
Ant already reviewed Donda 6 years ago, damn.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I just love seeing Dean Blunt's cool taste in music (specifically in a lot of UK post-punk and dub) appear in his songs with his sampling. '100' samples a song by The Pastels which is only 30 seconds long and he turns it into this great jangle-pop ballad, Babyfather's 'Snakeman Freestyle' samples a song by Marine Girls called 'He Got The Girl' and plays with the themes of betrayal and naivity in a relationship, and in 'A_X' he interpolates lyrics from 'Love Like Anthrax' by Gang of Four. No one else is doing it like him, adore his music :')
omg woah would’ve never guessed that’sa sample of the pastels haha
Skywalker freestyle is how I found dean blunts music, wuthering heights sample so good
His choice of samples is really just wonderful. My current favourites are 'demon' from sat in your lap by Kate Bush or 'blow 2' from dying on the vine by John Cale
Brilliant album, the song '100' got me hooked completely. Oh, and holy shit, the amount of fantastic artists which you named at 7:03 was amazing, I literally love them all.
Just had that feel when I listen to something for the first time and realize that I am definitely gonna listen to it a few hundred times in the coming weeks. This is the perfect background/sleeping music type album.
Oh shit random Beatrice appearance! Didn't think I'd find you here
It's like... "How much more black could this be?" and the answer is "None. None more black".
molly & aquafina, forever, and grade are some gorgeous songs
i miss when you reviewed more underground stuff
I.K.R
What happened.
@@Soulonfire-01 Nothing wrong with liking underground music. Like cmon
@@Soulonfire-01 Yeah thats true. I think that dean blunt isn't even super underground, hes obscure but still pretty established.
What exactly is "underground music". Isnt most of the music he reviews pretty out of the mainstream?
He still does. He’s done plenty of black metal reviews this year, for example
Kanye's appropriation is evident
Great review! I never considered a comparison to Silver Jews or Smog but it makes a lot of sense in terms of approach. Its so easy to get caught up in the crossed cultural references of Dean Blunt's work that sometimes you miss what it is in essence. Maybe my favourite album of 2014! Cheers, a new subscriber.
One of my favourite albums of all time
I still do like The Narcissist II more, but this is an excellent album. Fair scoring you got there, Fantano.
Real mano
another huge influence on Dean is outsider R n B and wavy gospel like Otis G. Johnson and Jeff Phelps. Check that stuff out if you're into weird proto-electro
duly noted
This is the first time I watch one of your reviews from beginning to end
>yfw fantano has never listened to Big Star's Third
one day i was pink floyd walking in the park. it was a warm and pink floyd sunny day, and the flowers had a pink floyd comforting beautiful smell. the river in this park seemed like it wass endless :D
this record is probably in my top 10 this year. so good
I fucking love dean blunty
I was kind of dissapointed you didn't give The Redeemer a review, considering other media like Tiny Mixtapes or Fact Magazine had loved it, end of the year lists and shit. Still, glad you enjoyed Black Metal.
Ivan Moscovich Someone send Anthony a vinyl copy of Redeemer so he can talk about it in a vinyl update
This is one of the best albums of the year, the first part is like a Death In June and Lee Hazlewood meet-up, then the album turns into a fantastic mix of synth-noise and dream pop, a true freak-out.
GRAH LEAST FAVORITE TRACK HEAVY THATS ONE OF MY FAVORITES IM NOT EVEN GONNA WATCH 3 SECONDS OF THIS VIDEO
big MIKE
I love dean blunt
perfect album
he better review black metal 2 when it comes out
that's why I came back to this review too lol
Hey Anthony, love your reviews. They're always very thorough and enjoyable to watch. You probably have a ton of reviews lined up, but I'd love to see an Alain Johannes - Fragments and Wholes Vol.1 review. This record was just released and was funded by fans. And it's already one of my favorite albums of 2014.
I really really really really really really like this record.
Thanks man.

Hey Blackthony Metalbro, I was wondering what your overall thoughts on amateurish music and musical artists were. I know you like your Tonetas and your Daniel Johnstons and whatnot but both of them have gathered huge followings mostly cause of their outsider approach to making music but what are your thoughts on just everyday normal amateur artists? like do you ever just listen to random bands on bandcamp with little followings? like just everyday people making everyday music. I ask you mostly because I tend to find this kinds of artists very interesting, not everything i find I'd label as "good" but there's usually something that catches my attention in terms of ingenuity, realness and just overall amateurish delivery. Tell me what you think i love u baba.
I like it when Anthony likes things that I like :)
Review: Hail Mary Mallon- Bestiary
pls.
i just got into dean blunt, but the songs i like the most so far are lush, 100, death drive freestyle, 50 cent and the rot
Should def try A_X and rinsed under dean, jennah’s interlude under blue iverson and distance and the whole lay under hype williams
Listen to all of his work with Joanne Robertson
Dean Blunt was kind of culturally appropriating white music and its awesome what sounds and songs came as a result. Someone mentioned Death in June, and I'll also add to having a Durutti Column sound at times. Brilliant record and it felt like an album and aesthetic like this will not be fully appreciated, but one day I hope. Its been nearly three years and its still too mysterious, but we have had an album such as Danny Brown's Atrocity Exhibition which thematically and introspectively takes some themes from Joy Division.
do TheSt4ndard - St4ndard
lil spook x Bobbyraps x Psymun x Allan Kingdom
Hey you actually reviewed it! Hell yeah!
Definitely one of my favorites from this year. After hearing it a few times I was hooked.

In dean we trust
No pink Floyd review ?
Yo Pinktony Flantano, can you review The Endless River album by Pink Floyd? I would like to hear your opinion. For me it was "okay". Like everyone, I was expecting something more mindblowing (after 20 years without releasing an album is kind of obvious)
Well, thank you and keep doing good stuff, even if I don't agree with you in the majority (at the time when you grade an album) I like to listen to your opinion and the arguments that you say why an album is "good" or "bad" for you
Anthony Fagtano
Are you going to review thestand4rd album?
REVIEW BABYFATHER

So kvlt
The endless river!!!!!!!!
Check out Recondite's latest LP, "Iffy".
Hi Anthony! i would like to hear your thoughts on new Toro y Moi's Les sins album Michael!
You should review Pink Floyd: The Endless River
the comparisons to r stevie moore and etc really add a nice context to understanding Dean Blunt. In a sense, he's a digital and more contemporary version of these kinds of dudes. Cool.
Where do I find/buy this? Other than iTunes.
Chrasness Google the name + rar
What's wrong with you, why won't you review Tommy Cash debut album ;_; !!!!!!!
melon wears kasual
Hey Anthony would you be able to do a Bestiary album review?
too much lupe fiasco old album art resemblance? idc both are different genres and cater to different people.
50 CENT was hard as fuck
This is a breach in the Trades Descriptions Act in the worst way....
The Needlethony Droptano.
dean blunt sounds like a drunk chris martin
Will u do a Review for iamamiwhoami's "blue"?
Johnny cash, nice :)
This album, so un-kvlt.
Hello Mr Tony Antafano, will you review moonface's City Wrecker EP ?
If yes, have a good day.
If no...
Have. a. good. day.
The Budos Band - Burnt Offering
Talking of Ariel Pink... review? This album sounds appealing to my interests.
This seems like amateurish hipster shit to me.
Any chance you could do a quick review or express your thoughts on the Domo Genesis "Under The Influence 2" mixtape, wondering if he is at the same level as all of his recent guest feature that he has had over the past year or so. Thanks Dreamthanoy Castano. Dreamcast pun
What happened to iamhiminwhoimah? =|
new Pink Floyd, new Foo Fighters, new Domo Genesis, track review of The Bug VS Earth 'Boa'. Thanks Smokethony 420tano.
Please review Wavy Spices/Princess Nokias 'Metallic Butterfly'
I was listening to skrillex and imagine dragons during this time
Review Earl Sweatshirts new track "45". I have mixed feelings about it, and it would be awesome to hear your thoughts on it.
I love this album !!
Review Eminem's new song Detroit Vs. Everybody and also Guts Over Fear. Also make sure you review Shady XV when it comes out November 24th
Review the new Migos mixtape #RNT
please review Skyharbor - Guiding Lights
I came to that exact conclusion recently while listening to Dean blunt , I used to love his stuff back then because it sounded so simple, like it was made in 10 minutes. But I recently come to realize how much is really going on in all his songs. That’s exactly what he is , deceptively simple
Anthony! Can you please do a review of Uyama Hiroto - Freedom of the Sun. Thanks in advance.
Could you review The Endless River, the "new" Pink Floyd album?
REVIEW NEW ROYKSOPP ALBUM PLEASE BEDTHONY PILLOWTANO
Everybody is bitching on blunts vocals, while ik the mean time, they're euphoric about the new iceage record. I guess being consistent isn't cool anymore.
Vibes Anthony review fibes
What is it with the UK and guys named Blunt? Unfortunate for him to evoke that association.
Have you hear about Violent Soho, it would be great if you check out the new album Hungry Ghost and make a review
