I just saw Screaming Females perform their new album live in its entirety. It's fantastic, and I'm really looking forward to hearing the rest of their back catalogue (I only learned about them last week).

The new album is a lot more accessible than their earlier stuff, but since you saw them live I imagine you're probably okay with just picking up Live at the Hideout as a good introduction to their rather sizable catalog. They play songs from every album, except Chalk Tape (which is really not their best). Then track down the albums with your favorite songs, noting that the live versions can be pretty different from the album versions.

Aslo, http://www.nyctaper.com/ has a couple of live shows of thiers to download for free so you can check those out too. I feel like I prefer some of their stuff live just because of how good Marissa is

I listen to everything while I'm working out whether it be Justice, Andrew Bird, Mogwai, Pearl Jam, Sigur Ros, Tame Impala or Junip . Anybody help me out? I'd hate to be all DAE google, but when i'm working out i've found their curated playlists in Google all access that shuffle throughout the day to be really relevant and useful

A punk band called The Sidekicks released a really ambitious and wonderful album last month called Runners in the Nerved World. It actually sounds a lot like Everything All the Time/Cease to Begin era Band of Horses. Check it out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1IQG7lBrqtc

jiffypop45 posted:I would love to see them live but they aren't coming anywhere near Texas. Maybe they'll do a one off show not part of the tour, it's how I got to see Jenny Lewis. I'd be interested in seeing them partly just for their somewhat unique instrumentation. Their new album is currently my album of the year so far. I think you will have a much easier time catching them in the US at some point in the future. This has been the first time in years that I remember them coming to Europe and, more specifically, somewhere even remotely nearby. They (understandibly) tour the states much more often, so give it a bit of time and I'm sure they will do another proper US tour.

That song and their previous album as a whole fall into the "good music but, not catchy" except for sonsick of course. That's one of my favorite songs of the past couple of years or so. Just my two cents, they'd be a fun band to see live I bet. Usually the ones that have a lot of good musicality are great live.

I like "Sonsick," but I prefer the versions with Rae (which, of course, isn't on the album.) "Bar" would be my favorite from their last album. Have you heard "Jackrabbit" yet? I would describe it as extremely catchy. It might tickle your fancy.

Dumb question but it's one of the girls from Lucius on the track, right (not Rae Cassidy)? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cvHzV7ygaOA E: It's Charlene Kaye, actually. Apparently she replaced Rae on tour last year I like the song fine; not as much as "Emily." The Kanye reference is cute. Real Name Grover fucked around with this message at 04:56 on Feb 26, 2015 |

They're fantastic live, though, and the new songs sounded pretty good when I saw them perform a couple of weeks ago.

In the vein of the Petty/Smith, I heard a cool song today but it sounded a bit familiar. What do you think? Murder By Death - It Will Never Die https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NM8hrHsXTuo Passenger - Let Her Go https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wp2EFzA790o I don't know much about progressions or whatever so maybe this is just a Pachelbel thing, but I found it interesting. I guess, maybe, whatever.

Anthonie Tonnon is a local singer-songwriter who's about to release a new album, which is available for streaming here: http://www.nzherald.co.nz/music/news/article.cfm?c_id=264&objectid=11408916 He writes quite literate narrative-based songs, that he describes as "long-form ballads". He's kind of difficult to pin down, but I first saw him opening for Okkervil River, where he performed, among other things, a cover of The Mountain Goats' "The Best Ever Death Metal Band in Denton", so if you like either of those bands, I can recommend him. Edit: Neeb posted:Courtney Barnett put out a new tune from her debut album I think Pedestrian at Best is the best track she's ever done. Goddamn. And if you ever get the chance to see her live, don't miss out on it. She's fantastic. cptn_dr fucked around with this message at 12:02 on Mar 3, 2015 |

Has anyone seen OK Go live? They're playing here at the end of the month and I'm on the fence as to whether to buy tickets. I like their music as well as the creative music videos, just wondering if the fun carries over to the live performances.

10 tracks is a bit short, but I am enjoying Purity Rings new album, and Sea Castle really stands out. Sometimes bands release all the good singles before the album drops, but this is not the case here.

Heads up: Purity Ring's gonna be playing Begin Again on Late Night With Seth Meyers tonight, if you're able to check it out. If not, I'm sure the video will be available soon after it airs.

Big winners for me are Stranger Than Earth (that middle synth part is so good), Begin Again (really like the overall feel as a dark pop song), Dust Hymn (synths again sealing it for me), and Heartsigh (for being sufficiently weird with its effects). I'm wondering how my standouts here compare to the favorites of Shrines. Amenamy was far and away my favorite followed by Obedear, Belispeak, Crawlersout, and Lofticries. At any rate I wish they were coming closer to me on their tour, I saw them... maybe in 2013 and it was great if not short. WOuld love to see them again with more material.

My favorites on Shrines mimic yours, almost completely, I'd replace obedear with fineshrine, but only from a lyrical standpoint. Begin again is really perfect as a pop song. It just... works.

Are Purity Ring any good live? I can go see them in Lawrence and I want to know if it's worth a 3 hour drive each way. The new album is great, by the way. Listen to it. It's not as good as Shrines, but that was a rather singular album.

Not at all relevant to your question, but it just made me smile because the longest I ever drove to see a show was also in Lawrence. Kid Koala and Amon Tobin, a long LONG time ago.

Kid Koala and Amon Tobin, a long LONG time ago. I drove to Lawrence from Omaha (also where GoRP lives) to see Wolf Parade on their last tour, so yeah, high five. Like 10 years ago I think Lawrence got better shows than KC, Omaha or Lincoln. It's balanced out, though, thanks to more smaller venues.
