Xiu Xiu's new album FORGET is streaming on Noisey. It's my album of the year so far. Explosive noisey sound. I'm not a big Xiu Xiu fan, I've only heard Air Force and that's it but this album is hitting me hard.

whatis posted:another new Spoon track was posted about an hour ago I loved Spoon when I was in high school but that's really awful. Such an unbelievably boring song. Probably the worst thing they've ever done. Sounds like a total lack of inspiration.

Saw Los Campesinos! today, after about 7 years of wanting to see them live. It lived up to the hype. Also bought their new album on vinyl, which is out Friday. Also amazing. I just love Los Campesinos!

The new Grandaddy album is streaming on NPR music - I don't know whether or not it's good yet, but it's Grandaddy, so it's worth a listen. (But if you haven't listened to their 1997 debut Under the Western Freeway, stop whatever you're doing and listen to that first) http://www.npr.org/2017/02/23/516707175/first-listen-grandaddy-last-place

Whorelord posted:there any hollywood forever/ideal husband style songs? Not really? Most songs vacillate between the slow emotional style like Two Wildly Different Perspectives and Ballad of the Dying Man, with that song being what I'd say is the closest to what you're wanting.

It's got everything I loved about old Grandaddy but without making me want to slit my wrists I decided to wait until I can listen on something besides NPR. I don't know if the player was always like this or if it's some issue with the files they're streaming, but the grandaddy album sounds like total muted poo poo and has constant annoying garbles and pops.

I'ts not bad but it feels like someone took all of Grandaddy's songs and distlled them down to a single-tone stream of themselves.

Yeah, I got kind of the same feeling. Like, it's a new Grandaddy album, and that's not a bad thing. But the only thing the album has going for it is that there aren't a lot of bands anymore who sound like Grandaddy. And if I wanted to listen to a Grandaddy album, then I'll just go listen to any of the albums they put out 13+ years ago. Meanwhile, this new King Gizzard album is really great.

I need someone to listen to the new Sun Kil Moon album so I can talk about it, I absolutely love it. It's two hours long, which I know is a turn-off for a lot of people, but all the songs are really interesting, since pretty much every song is only the length it is so that Mark can sing about whatever it is he wants to tell you about. There's two songs that total out to about twenty minutes combined about him being obsessed with true crime and unsolved mysteries, culminating to him going to the Cecil Hotel where Elisa Lam died and him exploring around, trying to find where the elevator footage was taken and looking for access points to the rooftop, talking to people who worked there and discussing things with them, and then finally getting picked up by his girlfriend who tells him "cool, I'm glad you finally got that out of your system." Full Album: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=59HwHndSyAw I Love Portugal: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OPqtHADYzaM Stranger Than Paradise: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=01bBxX1iQ84

That being said, I listened to the new album while running tonight, and got an Alopecia vibe from a good 3 or 4 tracks. Couldn't tell you which until I actually pay attention to the song titles, though.

Henchman of Santa posted:The new Minus the Bear is aggressively uninteresting and I was a fan of their last couple of records.  They're one of my favorite bands and I've seen them live probably the most of any band (I think 7 times?), and I liked Invisible (the single), but the rest of the album just didn't do anything for me at all. They seem to be going in a much poppier direction and abandoning what made me love them in the first place (the math-rock stuff like the finger tapping and weird time signatures and cool looping techniques). That was somewhat true on their last couple albums too, but here it's pretty much completely gone. None of the guitar work stood out to me at all, which sucks because I know they're capable of doing really interesting stuff.

God drat, I feel the same way, listening to this right now and I really enjoy Last Kiss and Invisible but everything is just boring as hell. poo poo, the unused/throwaway/unreleased/whatever tracks on Lost Loves were better than this. What a loving disappointment.

I sort-of subconsciously let Spotify repeat it for most of the day at work. Those last two minutes could've easily felt unnecessary, but they don't.GoldfishStew posted:It's pretty good?

I meant any good song on their first LP. Not Sun Giant (which I do actually think is their best work but kinda sounds like a different band). Phil Ek is involved so I'll totally listen just don't see it as a song to lose ur poo poo over.

So the new Magnetic Fields album, 50 Song Memoir, drops on Friday and NPR has pretty much the whole album up. http://www.npr.org/2017/03/06/518379457/first-listen-the-magnetic-fields-50-song-memoir Fellow fans will understand from 69 Love Songs that he's serious when he says 50 Song Memoir. I've been listening to it today. I appreciate what he's trying to do and I can't fault his ambition, but sad to say I'm bouncing off the majority of these songs. They sound like they belong in a musical, which is probably is partly what he's going for. Love at the bottom of the sea was the same way. It's not really a style I enjoy. By dint of there being 50 songs, there is at least a full album's worth of stuff I do actually enjoy. Standouts for me are Judy Garland, Foxx and I, How to play the synthesizer, Ethan Frome, and Weird Diseases. The fourth disk comes up on NPR tomorrow and I'm sure there'll be a least few of those that'll hit the spot. Conversely, "'91 The Day I finally" is pretty strange and I feel like it hardly qualifies as even a song. Like, this is the year you released my favorite album of yours and your first as this group, and maybe say something about that? I wonder how he's going to do it at the live show, as I imagine I'm not alone in feeling this way. Edit: I was listening to the last disk and Cold Blooded Man is easily the standout for me. It has that classic 90s era Magnetic Fields sound I love, due in no small part to the cello. They didn't put up the last 10 tracks, but hopefully there's another one of those in there. skooma512 fucked around with this message at 17:14 on Mar 9, 2017 |
