abraham linksys posted:man usually these sort of one-day festivals have way too many conflicts to make them worth the price and you only end up seeing 1/3 of what you'd like to see, but this one's easy as hell For me, it's The Go Team, CSS, BSS, Washed Out, Passion Pit, Death Cab, Phoenix, and Postal Service. I'm happy to see Sleigh Bells, Tegan and Sara, Alvvays, Metric, and War on Drugs, but I will get to those late or leave early to see my priorities.

Carpet posted:Early review of St Vincent's All Born Screaming is up at Stereogum, I'm even more excited for it now. That sounds promising! Her last album was really weird. Why write an entire album about your father's release from prison, create a whole persona around it in which you call yourself "Daddy," and then completely refuse to talk about your father in the press? All of that for a not that great album.

David Byrne returned the favor and covered Paramore: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_KORMu9b2pI It's not really as good as their cover of "Burning Down the House", but then again I feel like that's one of the best covers of all time, so I guess it's a high bar. Really cool gesture from him all the same.

Public Service Broadcasting are going on tour in the autumn off the back of an as yet untitled new album https://twitter.com/PSB_HQ/status/1781248337053655199 The QA in the second tweet is interesting in pulling back the curtain on how much they get per show and why they're not going anywhere on the south coast or south west. I will disagree that Southampton Guildhall is too big as it's about the same size as the O2 Academy in Bournemouth and definitely smaller than the Portsmouth Guildhall. And yes, it is a shame the Pyramids has gone but its now a massive kids soft play centre, so it's not all bad

Watching the Vampire Weekend replay on YouTube: like, I'm not going to go back and rediscover FOTB, but I get that the band needed Counting Crows-rear end songs like "This Life" to secure these kinds of stages for the rest of their careers. Hell, the Father of the Bride is the one who usually pays for the wedding. EDIT: Also, I am so in the tank for the Last Dinner Party. These fine young ladies definitely have some talent

  Album came out on the 12th. Gonna be hard to beat this for my album of the year. Just strong from start to finish. And as it's all sung in the POV of the fictional Aaron West and is the third album, it's full of references to previous songs from the first 2 AW20 albums. With the first album about the death of his father, his wife's miscarriage, and the end of his marriage, this album does show Aaron in some rough spots, but ultimately in album finisher Dead Leaves, Aaron sees his ex with a baby just by chance when he's arriving at a venue with his name on the marquee, showing he's made it and his ex has moved on and is happy. She doesn't notice him, he smiles and enters the venue.. It's a beautiful song. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c-WVU7_UG18 Dead Leaves Other parts of the album I've got on repeat are Runnin' Out Of Excuses https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wtoAmtOMhO8 about Aaron's time in what seems like alcohol rehab/detox. Really love the lines "I’m writing a love song. I'm singing at brick walls. Getting my voice back. I’m patching up new faults with resin and sea salt. Fill in the old cracks", also featuring some good saxophone. Also Roman Candles https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PAtNg8hl4Eo, earlier in the album, which seems to be when Aaron is getting his band together for practices, but there's some setbacks, and then Covid is starting to hit. He's keeping his expectations in check as he doesn't have any hope. and I've posted it before but https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gYxDp7iJ9MU Alone At St. Lukes is probably my favorite on the album. Chronicling a rough time in Scotland where the band has a show set in Glasgow but things go wrong. Also the first two albums We Don't Have Each Other https://open.spotify.com/album/7x5mmBcWLj8SXrgyFjs1d6?si=OKeuDNXHQ166YaOwbkpTfA and Routine Maintenance https://open.spotify.com/album/7cVuUQje4ULyhp4YIa3liV?si=JT9dtZkARVmgOo9L155IbA are definitely worth listening to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aoE2j_bM9xI music video for first song from their first album, Our Apartment. The stretched earlobes on the sax player are probably some of the biggest I've ever seen. OK thank you for reading. RubberLuffy fucked around with this message at 03:51 on Apr 26, 2024 |

I dunno about Justice being mid. The singles on their own didn’t do anything really for me, but the album as a whole now is pretty good. I haven’t really listened to St. Vincent before but I gave that album a shot and I like it.

New Pet Shop Boys album is out today, and I’m leaning toward it being their best since at least 2006’s Fundamental. It’s like a strings-coated hybrid of Behaviour and Bilingual.

All Born Screaming is St Vincent's best in a while. The previous two were mostly forgettable, this is something else though. Real bass is back - guess she's over her obsession with synth bass. Percussion is punchy. David Byrne influence is very much there - Big Time Nothing would be right at home on Feelings. Shame she's not anywhere near my town on this tour.

The Wonder Years are great, their most recent album The Hum Goes On Forever is fantastic. Summer Clothes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=efg3kI4xAXY Old Friends Like Lost Teeth https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GsuVuIaQxOQ both are favorites from it some older stuff I like a lot Raining In Kyoto https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zwp9lMscyug the band was touring Japan when Dan received word his grandfather had passed. "You’re half awake, I bought you a radio to play the blues away. With my hand to hold, you asked about the weather, wish they’d let you die at home." Out On My Feet https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7yh1tZyXvrc a song from 2020 for the 10 year anniversary of their albums The Upsides and Suburbia, which has the band replicating that sound GODDAMNITALL https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PkSsbP7iciY A version was going to be on their 2013 album The Greatest Generation but ultimately wasn't. This came out 10 years later. The song starts with "Eastern time has gotten the best of me. I blew my voice out giving the eulogy." and I think about that second line a lot.
