Ritchie said in the announcement that this album came together in an attempt to get away from his perfectionist tendencies in his Injury Reserve/By Storm work. The album is left rough on purpose and it adds to the charm/atmosphere imo.

Looking forward to the Bye Storm debut

Just saw him on his first tour date last night actually! He is very much using this album/tour to grow and figure out what to say post Injury Reserve. He took a lot of time to let the crowd know that heās not entirely sure what heās doing up there. It was refreshing to me, you see so many artists come up on tour playing the hits and nothing else. Like you make an album and donāt perform more than half of it? Itās like why are you making this music in the first place?
I think that By Storm has been a bit lost since By The Time I Get To Phoenix was made. I think by walking out and saying up front āhey I donāt know what I wanna do yet, but youāre here to help me figure it outā is kind of a good thesis for this era of artistry. I love the fully formed star, but thereās room for people who slip and fall on their way up. Ritchie is showing that itās okay to make mistakes. Heās human.
Thereās good nuggets in the album. Bits and pieces where something is forming. Heāll figure it out with time. This only makes me more excited for whatever By Storm comes out with next. Theyāll have a better target to aim for once this era is over.

God i love this project man, the roughness feels intentional and only adds to the character of it to me. Frankly a beautiful fuzzy little album in its own weird way
Also, i think your questioning on the rough mixing is kinda being called out on ritchies verse on HOW tbh. You gotta let this stuff flow

RIP Groggs. This Ritchie album is so human tho

Its sad that the end of injury reserve came as they hit their prime

i think the best way to enjoy Get a Fade is to know that it's RiTchie's rendition of a Girlpool cover of a Radiator Hospital song lol

if it was called double digits [10] you would've given it a 10

Was hoping you'd review this one hell yeah
6/10 is crazy tho, strong 7 lite 8
I think it's worth noting that some stylistic choices are good and necessary but are inherently not applicable to a 10/10 review
I love how DIY this record feels, sometimes you want some shit that really sounds like a dude fucking around in his basement
It kind of reminds of this short collaborative release by NAH/GIVV that i was obsessed with in high school, i think more rap now could use that energy/ethic

No Cal? This review is a light 3

Bro, I know this album is old, but it aged really good, itās called Hexes by Dirty Art Club, a massive underrated hip hop artist, I recommend this album to you Fantano, itās available on Spotify

I agree Anthony, RiTchie definitely has potential, especially showcased on the songs RiTchie Valen, Dizzy, and Looping, but what was tried on Get a Fade is best left behind. Can't wait to form my own opinion on it!

How could you not love The Thing Anthony

one of the best albums of the year for me, 9/10

I enjoyed the production a ton! Ritchieās vocal inflections are fun too! The only thing that bothered me was the little bit at the end of āthe thingā was a lil pretentious for me I can see what youāre saying s out stuff being unfinished but I donāt think I mind I just need some cool sounding brain rot
Happy you reviewed it!

Really interested in listening to this record now. It sounds like Ritchie is truly experimenting in the most literal way which seems dope. Love his approach to art and it seems like most of the roughness is a real artistic choice. Can't wait for a fully fleshed out project from By Storm.

Objectively wrong but itās okay melon ā¤

i liked this album a lot, glad you reviewed it

I find it pretty cool that both this and the matt champion album were debuts from ex-group members, got 6's and had their favourite tracks be just the 3 singles for the album.
