I'm kind of glad I don't see Oxbow memes that will age horribly. As much as I like Daughters, boy am I sick of kids in Patrician Music Chartposting posting about them constantly.

That Daughters record was and is still super solid but holy moly did that get a lot of recognition and praise heaped on to it. Oxbow have always been more interesting and thought provoking but I usually listen to Daughters when I need something to just straight up f*ck my ears so they both have their place. Oxbow can be more nuanced and delicate which I like as well.

Eh, not that I don't like that Daughters album but I get what they accomplish from Oxbow in a bigger way. Their dynamics make the visceral, damning elements a lot more hard hitting. Eugene S. Robinson's vocals push it over the edge, mainly. Their strangeness and physicality is like being attacked by a schizophrenic, except as you become more immersed in the music it begins to feel like you're the schizophrenic. Marshall's vocals on YWGWYW are more like a banker yelling at a slave in his sex dungeon.

Honestly they should collab.

Totally agreed. Robinson's vocals are way more demented and cathartic than Marshall's. We used to call him "Dirty Spitty Elvis" in my friend circle.

Do you think I could even name a Morrissey song let alone know enough of his music to have a coherent opinion worth considering?

No.

But I still have an opinion and that's that Outkast is better.
