I stumbled upon this band called Deep Time and I am absolutely loving them. They only have one album so far, but it is absolutely fantastic. I can't really give you an idea of what they sound like. Check it out. Here's "Clouds", my favourite off the album. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E0loDMML7YU

Wild Nothing is coming out with a new album next week (8/28). Here's a single from Nocturne called 'Shadow': https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GnRLPaYXvoU Craft Spells, did no one mention that they released an EP 'Gallery' about three months ago? I haven't seen any talk about it in this thread, but they're worth an extra reminder. Here's 'Still Left With Me' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=07h_jB63L64. For any of you into chillwave music check out Sunrom. A friend of mine showed me their song 'Le Sable' and I've been hooked (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SXRr514m5fM) King Tuff released their self titled just this past May and their song 'Bad Thing' feels a lot like twee mixed with hard rock. Here's a link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BkxlZk-IYZk As for The XX's new album I'm kind of on the fence about their new songs. I just listened to 'Chained' and heard 'Angels' before and it feels a lot slower than their previous work. It's almost too slow. guppiehaus fucked around with this message at 20:45 on Aug 21, 2012 |

Anyone here listen to Natural Child? I just discovered them and they're pretty great. They kind of remind me of a more garage-rock version of the Rolling Stones. Usually I'm into the more lo-fi folk stuff, but sometimes you just need to rock. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zniu5xpAcPY http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v5L9Zpu-ow0&feature=related

Searched the thread and NMD, didn't see anything, so I'm gonna go ahead and pass on a recommendation for The Novel Ideas who have a few albums up for name-your-price (no minimum) or free at their bandcamp and Spotify. It's standard folk-rock that doesn't really break any boundaries or anything, but I've been enjoying their album Home a bunch lately. Definitely worth checking out if you have some time.

Lblitzer posted:Maybe it's because I've been listening to why? for years and they're/he's easily my favorite artist ever but anything they put out is some of the best news I can hear from the comfort of my computer. Each of the last 3 albums have had their own strengths that really put a staple on how versatile why? is as a band now which is why I absolutely love them. Indie pop, rock, hiphop, electronic? It's hard to describe what kind of music they make. But yeah, cLOUDDEAD, Object Beings and Why? are some of y favourite groups ever, so of course I am going to eat this EP up. Apparently he is playing 21st Century Pop Song on this tour, so I guess I have to see him if he comes out this way.

So the new Grimes video is um... well, I don't really want to say it because I mean look at my avatar, but... it's kind of a little bit terrible. I loved all her other videos, but this one is just so dumb. Boucher said she wants to make a video for every track on the album, and I just hope when she gets to Be a Body she doesn't gently caress around.

I'm confused. You guys don't find that surreal sci-fi dancey poo poo with Grimes just messing around and singing the whole time doesn't visually represent her music entirely? This is as Grimes as it gets

I also think the Wild Nothing album a decent amount but not nearly as much Gemini. I will check out the Sunrom stuff cause I am a huge sucker for the Chillwave sound and will be said when it's imminent quick demise is complete.

I think her former love of Nu Metal is starting to take its place in her own image. That video is balls, intentionally campy doesn't always mean it's ok to be campy. That video is a perfect example.

T Fowl posted:I think her former love of Nu Metal is starting to take its place in her own image. Agreed in full. I am not normally one to say that a particular popular artist (let's face it, if you've heard of them, they're popular) has found or founded a significant new trend in music and aesthetics, but the whole thing seems to me like the sight and sound forerunner of early 90s/beginning-of-the-internet-era/animes/mall goths revival that kind of started to crystallize in the "sea punk" quasi movement of 2011-early 2012. Looking forward to seeing her further work within this trend.

That's still one of my favorite songs on the album. Her other vids have been better. It answered my question of what an idie Britney Spears video would look like.

You know, I've noticed that this thread has a peculiur lack of BLANCHE BLANCHE BLANCHE. They are going to release like, five albums this year, but here's my favorite song of theirs, "Talk Out Loud." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y0r2nNceFQM Smoking Crow fucked around with this message at 03:28 on Aug 26, 2012 |

Does anyone know any radio shows for Indie music, and are podcasted? Often university radio stations have stuff like this.

For having an overall mood that is somewhat disconcerting, every sound in this song has a very soothing tone to me. It feels like several lullabies that shouldn't be heard at the same time being shakily sewn together, but I really like it.

NPR's All Songs Considered is mostly indie music with some pop, folk, world, and random genres thrown in occasionally. They have their main show podcasted as well as live concert podcasts and All Songs 24/7 streaming all the time at their website. One of the best features is that they have been doing the first listen on a lot of great indie albums over the past few years where whole albums will be available for streaming the week before their hard release.

Lblitzer posted:Fang Island released a new album. Not sure how I feel about it yet but I'll give it some time. Their sophomore album was amazing to me but this one doesn't have as much that stands out. It's a pretty formulaic song structure with not as many surprises, but it's loving happy harmonic rock. Finally got around to giving this a good listen over the last few days. You're spot on, it really hasn't got anything on their self titled or even Day of the Great Leap, but it's a pretty consistent album with some real instant-classics. If you haven't already, give Victorinian a good listen, I think it's been the highlight of my listening experience so far. Definitely worth a look for anyone into instrumental/melodic/seriously motivational good vibes music.

When I reregistered to make another one, about seven people replied to it until it fell off the forum forever. A drat well $30 spent. edit: VVV Okay, you persuaded me.

Yeah, well...us 7 people sure would like to have a discussion about the new Animal Collective album. After one listen, I have to say that I like it quite a bit. It's more immediately enjoyable to me than MPP, but not as mind-blowing as Strawberry Jam (which may forever be my favorite AC album). I really like the sound though, and there are some really great moments. I'm looking forward to listening to this a lot more.

There are a lot of people into Indie on this forum, most of us just don't give much of a gently caress about Animal Collective really. Also how much can there really be to discuss about a single album?

It's about all I could read about for a couple days. I never really got Animal Collective, to be honest, most of their music just seems too disconnected for my taste, it lacks a distinct cohesion. That said, they do have a couple good songs, and I LOVE "Feels", so who knows.

No one's mentioned Army Navy, which is a crying shame. They play power pop as God intended, straightforward. Also, their videos are hillarious.

Dorepoll posted:The new EP is great, but someone mentioned that the lead single sound like Cake and now I can't unhear the comparison. I really like the EP as well. They manage to stay so fresh with everything they do. They did play 21st Century Pop Song on their 2009 tour right before Eskimo Snow's release. I don't think Broder and Ericson are touring with them anymore, but seeing that song live was nothing short of amazing. Also, I'm voting for Japandroid's Celebration Rock as album of the year for me. Reminds me a lot of DFA1979 but there's a lot more emotion and better hooks put into it. "Fire's Highway" is one of my favorite songs ever now.
