Holy poo poo, the new Hundredth album is amazing; I've basically had it on loop since I got it yesterday. If you haven't heard of them, think The Ghost Inside/ Counterparts-esque, and don't be scared away by them being a "Christian" band, there are no Neutral Milk Hotel styled proclamations of how rad Jesus is, just some posi lyrics.

Red_Fred posted:What are peeps opinions on hosed Up? I'm not sure what to make of them. Their first single in 2002 was No Pasaran/Circling the Drain and it was the best release they've done yet. They released four singles that moved thematically away from the a-side of the first single, towards the b-side but dug a deep trench between themselves and a lot of other music at the time, touring with a handful of other crushing monumental hardcore/punk bands that are equals or better that do not share the publicity they do because of (my opinion) their clever ability to continually grow and cover new ground that they are interested in. They played here (Chicago) a lot with other bands they were in and the members were always involved in local music. They wrote zines, formed other bands, etc (they still do and are still heavily involved). They used some serious fuckin brains on the part of Mike to whip up hilarious cover stories and creative lies about the band and its history, its releases, etc while combining them with a sort of ongoing series of situationist and other agit prop political nonsense. Moved musically with a lot of his input towards shoegaze. I recall him selling a ton of his records in Toronto after a show, including the Stars and Stripes LP, and I said "hmm I think they are moving towards wankery and away from fights at shows." They also are (again, personal opinion) partially responsible for the lovely state of "mysterious guy hardcore." They have always supported other bands, music and their various nonprofit work they take interest in without question. I can't speak highly enough of them, although I rarely listen to it anymore and don't buy any of the new stuff. I do have nearly every release of theirs from the beginning including some test presses, bootlegs, etc. Absolutely none of them are "dicks" with an exception for Ben Cook circa No Warning. They appease their fanbase so hard that fans actually expect a shitload from them, which is slightly pathetic. They are a band, you are an audience, if you want to hear something different go form your own band. I don't know what everyone does still but Damian had Millenial Reign and his label with his wife for a bit, Jonah does Mad Men which is KILLER. Ben does Young Guv, or did for a while, might not still be a thing. They were touring with Foo Fighters and, checking the blog, have a hilarious looking cruise thing they are playing with the Dirtbombs and King Khan with the Shrines.

David Comes to Life is just incredible, especially with the lyrics in front of you. Chemistry of Common Life was good, but David is a step beyond. David's Town is really cool, too, just them playing a bunch of different kinds of music with various singers. e: They're already working on a musical version of David. poo poo. I'll go to Canada for that.

It is 78 minutes. I don't feel like it is bloated, most of the songs are under 5 minutes and flow into each other.

Bomb the Music Industry rules hard but I don't like any of the other bands on that bill. Is going to night one, staying til 12:10, and booking it to the second show an option? Seeing Dillinger Four and Smoke or Fire in one day would be tits.

Rooney McNibnug posted:Glad I'm not the only one who thought RVIVR were kind of jerkish when I saw them I remember making a post sometime back after seeing RVIVR saying that they tell people off in a noble way. However, putting down someone, in even a noble manner, still makes you look like an rear end. I did enjoy their show regardless but I do get the vibe that Matt is somewhat self-righteous. Has anyone else listened to P.S. Eliot's most recent album "Sadie"? I recently bought it and have really enjoyed, but they announced they're breaking up and playing their final show later in the year. It always seems that when I start getting really into a band they break up.

Don't know if the others from the album have been mentioned in this thread before, but La Dispute put out a third track from Wildlife (Oct 4) the other day, called "Edward Benz, 27 Times". Great song, even better if you're looking at the lyrics while listening to it. Can't wait for this album. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OHKc-9Ps-cc http://www.ladisputemusic.com/2011/09/edward-benz-27-times
