Chiming in a little late on the Wet Leg chat but the band name "Scotty and the Soft Boys" from the Ur Mum video just cracks me up. Great song, great video. I'm hooked on all their singles but that one is my favourite lately.

I just stumbled across a new Afghan Whigs tune on Youtube and apparently they have a new album coming out in September? Awesome. I have liked their post reunion albums (Do to the Beast and In Spades). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tClf9QGLvfw Gentlemen is burned into my mind, what an album.

All I know of King Gizzard is the DJ Shadow remix with the weird guy dancing in the video, I dig the tune.

The only sorta king gizzard song I know is the DJ Shadow remix of "Black hot soup" (owns) and it has a breakdown section that is just "woo!"s lol

I got to see the New Pornographers in a fairly small venue right as they came off touring for Twin Cinema, and it was amazing. I was on a mezzanine basically almost above Kurt Dahle and got to watch him play with a seeming effortlessness that just blew me away. He had a full pint glass he could pickup and sip from while keeping time with his other hand. Legend. Always surprised he doesn’t pop up on more canadian bands in need of a drummer! Twin Cinema is still on my all time albums short list..

The biggest surprise CHVRCHES ever did was have the dude sing on that one track And I like them a lot just yeah it's pretty similar most of the time, and that's fine!

I'd heard of 100 gecs but hadn't checked it out yet, that tune is pretty cool. It kinda gave me a Blink-182 vibe, weirdly God talk about nightmare tenants though, lol

It has been wild seeing Deftones have a resurgence (although they never went away and have been putting out solid albums) as apparently the zoomers are getting into them? They’re not really numetal imo but get lumped in there a lot.

A couple of my guilty pleasure tracks are the riff heavy singles from P.O.D. (Boom and Alive) so I can never judge anyone’s musical tastes

Apropos of nothing I feel like I may be the only person who much prefers Jessie Ware’s earlier, torch song type stuff to her disco reinvention. That’s fine and all but man Tough Love and Devotion are just two fantastic albums.

2nding Sus Sog, I had been looking forward to it since the Town Crank track was released and the album really lives up to it. Big fan of Clark for that whole off kilter electronic vibe. Him and Lorn. Also been digging the machinedrum remix of a Crosses song “day one” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m0NzjsDA_PU

My 5 year old daughter loves Phoebe Bridgers initially based on that skeleton tshirt Phoebe wears (that is her style too) but then she kept asking to watch more and more of her videos and she just rocks out. She asks for Phoebe where her older sister will ask for katy perry or taylor swift lol She’s totally going to be the cool girl at school

Moon Shaped Pool is great, I like Johnny Greenwood really leaning into his soundtrack instrumental chops for it.

The REAL Goobusters posted:Ok computer, kid A, pyramid song, in rainbows and a moon shaped pool are stone cold classics imo Absolutely. I really like Amnesiac as a whole too but Pyramid song is definitely the highlight. Back in the late 90s/early 00s I would go to Radiohead concerts every chance I got. And also Beck. Those two are probably my most watched shows. The shared Nigel Godrich connection (Sea Change is one of my all time fav albums)

I don’t really know much about The 1975 but I think they are indie rock ish (and Noel Gallagher hates them for some reason?) but drat this made me chuckle https://pitchfork.com/news/the-1975-set-in-malaysia-pulled-after-matthew-healy-kisses-bandmate-and-attacks-lgbtq-laws/ quote:The 1975’s Matthew Healy criticized homophobic Malaysian laws and kissed bassist Ross MacDonald for some 20 seconds during the band’s headline set at Good Vibes Festival yesterday, leading organizers to pull the set and authorities to cancel the festival’s remaining two days. Healy told the Kuala Lumpur crowd it was “loving ridiculous to tell people what they can do with that and that,” gesturing to his crotch. “If you want to invite me here to do a show, you can gently caress off. I’ll take your money, you can ban me, but I’ve done this before and it doesn’t feel good, and I’m hosed off.”

I was just lookin thru youtube and saw a guy did a nice audio version of Remi Wolf's Coachella performance of "Cake", which I didn't love the song originally but this version is really great. She can really cut loose! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G1H2cilIIl4

Yeah when she let rip I was like holy crap So many performers don't really rip it when live because it can be tiring with jumping around on stage etc so I was very impressed.

My #2 most played artist was Palms, signed to ipecac so that’s indie! (1 and 3 were Deftones and Crosses so there’s a bit of a Chino Moreno thing going on here)

I still like the end of year lists in general because they are good to read while work slows down in December. Also they’re good for 2 things: filling me in for things I missed that sound interesting and stimulating discussion about the list! I think the top song lists are my favs.
