The Why? Thread

Discussion in 'Music genres, Bands and Artists' started by Cubic Cuban, May 27, 2010.

  1. Well, I searched this forum and couln't find any threads about Why? Anybody else dig them? They blend hip hop with indie and have very abstract lyrics. They're really cool and have a style of their own. Yoni Wolf is just a genius.


    This is one of my top ten favorite albums of all time:

    So, today I was just chilling in my garage while it was raining listening to my ipod. After I smoked a bowl, I just sat down on a lawn chair and the next thing I know I'm listening to 'The Vowels Pt. 2.' Right when I was listening to Why? the sun came out and I just sat on that chair and chilled. Then, when I saw how nice it was I decided to get up and go on a jog. Right when I left the garage and the sun hit me, 'Fatalist Palmistry' came on. It was amazing, everything in my life was just coordinating with the whole album.

    Anyway, yeah feel free to post anything Why?/Yoni Wolf related.

    Peace :smoke:
     
  2. ill album no doubt.
     
  3. Hell yeah, dude. Wish they would come to KC, though, that concert would be sick.

    Anybody else dig these guys? 'Waterfalls' and 'Eskimo Snow' are probably my favorite songs not on Alopecia.

  5. You just inspired me to listen to Why? again

    Have the whole Alopecia, elephant eyelash and Eskimo snow albums, they're so fucking awesome baked. Sober too:)

    Listenin to The vowels pt 2 now
    :smoking:

    Also love the Hymies basement shit with Yoni and his brother
     
  6. Hell yeah, man. Why? is amazing when you're sober, but mind-blowing when you're high. But, yeah, this was my first time hearing them since December and I forgot how awesome they were.

  10. I love Why?, I think Alopecia is by far their best work.
    But I can listen to any of their albums on repeat.
    Love Yoni, love cLOUDDEAD, love love love.
    Seeing Why? at Pitchfork in a month!
    Sooooo stoked :)


    :bongin:
     
  11. too fucking hip.

    and their cure cover sucks.

    im sick of this indie/hip hop fusion shit.
     
  12. why the hate bro?
     
  13. its not hate, just a negative opinion. not all stoners are 'chill out man' types. haha

    edit: also, my abundance of cursing probably makes me seem more upset than i am. cursing is inbred into my vocabulary.

  17. It was fucking phenomenal..The best experience of my entire life by far, mainly thanks to Modest Mouse... :) I would have probably given my left limb to someone to go to coachella but no one really wants my left limb so I still have them and watched live feeds haha
