New John Maus single this week: "I Hate Antichrist"

What do we think Mausheads

from the snippit it sounds like its going to be shit. Im hoping for good music but im kind of doubtful

I really don't get christian fundies, how am I supposed to know what the anti-christ is when everyone has a different opinion on what it is and its left nebulous. meanwhile this guy praises self proclaimed nazis like kanye

>>126670050 (OP)
He has one good album and that's it

>>126670352
What do you think the sister album to "Later Than You Think" will sound like or be about? What will the new albums concept even be?

>>126670406
>praises kanye
Did he? He remixed a song off of Jesus Is King. Is that really equivalent to an endorsement of his endeavors post-2020

>>126670466
He has, like, 3 good albums at least

It's a really shitty song that retards who think Sam Hyde and the UN-Anti-Christ memes are funny will probably like. Maybe Sam Hyde will include it in a video of his where he talks like an authoritative father figure giving shitty life advice to his loser sperg audience.

>>126670352
I see he lost his mind after storming the capitol

RYM finna have a melty

>>126671664
nah he went kooky after his brother died of an overdose then got into neo tradcath shit and into religious paranoia-fueled politics thanks to his wife and Ariel
only think that's worrying me is it seems like he's been interested in implementing ai music slop into his work

Glad he's still doing stuff coz he's really smart & he deserves to still have a career. Don't know what he's getting at with this new stuff though

>>126670050 (OP)
let's hope he still got it

>naming your song after an idiotic dated meme

>>126675686
Sucks he seems to be pandering to the lowest common dominator. What made We Must Become... and his other early stuff so great is that it had a true outsider quality, it wasn't /mu/ bait but it wasn't normie either

>>126675740
Maybe he wasn't good all along

>>126675772
honestly surprised he isn't older. this means he was only 31 when Pitiless Censors came out and he already doing his PhD. I thought he was at least 50.

>>126675845
Ariel is pushing 50

>>126675887
and looks like it

>>126670050 (OP)
saw him perform it live the other day and it was pretty fucking good, although the vocals don't seem great from the clip
maus is the greatest artist of the past 20 years btw, he played another song that was unreleased as well which was really good, vocals were something like "we will watch it go up in flames"

I'm so happy he's back. Total Victory

>>126670352
Y'know what that was actually not bad. Good, even, maybe

Feel like post-Maus brother death era isn't going to be nearly as good. His bro had so many great basslines to construct a song around. Underrated player.

it fucking sucks
also weyes blood did mocap for one of the characters or some shit
ariel really got screwed over by him lol

he lost it

ariel mogs him, at least he can still write songs

>>126674331
new album and rarities have no ai if you trust him (and god knows he likes being obtuse)

>>126670352
>AI slop
>retarded social commentary that hits you over the head
fucking cringeola

>>126670352
This is just sad. He probably paid a first year blender student to make that terrible video. I hope his mental health improves because I still love him after all the lame things he's done

>>126679052
>Ariel mogs him, at least he can still write songs
lol. lmao

big dumb man

Admit it /mu/. This literally just sounds like a John Maus parody in 2025. And not even a good one. Like someone beating a dead gimmicky horse.

>>126680268
Both him and Ariel have lost the plot and it has nothing to do with their political views

>>126680308
The Fox News interview was pretty evident that whatever was going on was beyond politics. Maybe not for Mexican Summer, but definitely for Ariel.

>>126670050 (OP)
Very boring and repetitive even for John Maus

>>126670050 (OP)
It feels like Maus hasn't evolved his sound at all in like 15 years. Just more of the same.

It's just fine. Not as good as Maus is capable of being. This sounds like The Crucifix off "Pitiless"... a complete song but designated as a transition from one song to another perhaps

anosognosia has kinda maus vibe to it and its really fucking good

>>126680562
ariel is severely mentally ill and retarded

>>126681459
>https://youtu.be/l-eBt4SqkMk?t=1093
that neverendinglovesong reprise at the end was so fucking good

>>126671622
Boom roasted

>>126670050 (OP)
He really cannot make good music anymore but I watched a recent live vid of him and he still seems to be a good performer.

for me its suicide notice in the title track
or one more time in why

THIS IS AN ASTROTURF LEFT-TROON SNARK THREAD
I advise you DISREGARD everything said here

>>126683147
this isnt about politics, ariel has worst possible terminal brainrot. john just straight up forgot how to make music, i even have one of his cds

>>126670406

>perform
Sweaty karaoke aerobics over backing tracks isn't much of a performance.

Sounds bad and I love John maus

its kind of below average for him. i like the guitars though and the music video is funny. the other new songs he played live are way better.

>>126680674
Yeah, you're right .i can't imagine any reason to listen to this over the 2009-2011 stuff

>>126685591
Holy shit , never mind, I thought songs came out in 2009. Songs and we must become are all I ever listen to .maybe I found out about him around 2009 from last.fm from all places.

>>126670050 (OP)
I like it, it's fun. People here taking it too damn seriously, I remember when /mu/ liked having fun. The guy is one of the greats and hasn't released anything in half a decade, give him a chance before you bury him, jeez.

>>126681459
Ariel is a genius. Yes, he's probably mentally ill and very open to weird ideas. That's exactly the personality trait that makes him write incredible music, two sides of the same coin.

>>126670352
There was a demo tape getting around recently and some of the new tracks sounds really good (dunno if they'll end up on the album but they're out there anyway).

Chud-Core

The cover is extremely lazy and boring

Yikes

I don't like it. All of his songs since Screen Memories have been lazy repetitive synthpop shit, the only one that stands out to me that he's released in the past decade is Sensitive Reflections

>>126670050 (OP)
Looking for a song in a similar feel to John Maus - Cop Killer. but it's a man screaming stuff. Any ideas?

>>126670352
This sounds like something that was thrown together in 20 minutes on fruity loops to make fun of an actual song

>>126684870
that's my favourite song of his, although pets and bombs away seem like the more obvious choices for best new songs. great taste anon
he played my city the other day and i asked if he'd ever play over phantom, can't remember if he said he would but he did say that there's an unreleased music video for that song, which is just gameplay footage of him and his brother playing halo riding around and running people over in a ghost (picrel)
legend.
