Saw Ellie Goulding tonight and for how much I like her music, it was a pretty bad show. She hardly had any energy, barely worked the crowd and her mic was so out of whack that no one could understand what she was saying. It didn't help that she's singing over pre-recorded backing vocals as well. Her band is talented as hell though, each one of those guys it seemed like had a guitar, a keyboard and drums.

I like Atlantis a lot.  New JT is stellar but most songs are way too long. Then again I've already heard there is a remix album in the works, so the extra minutes give people more to work with I guess.

Her writing certainly hasn't gotten any better, but you can hear the Auerbach all over it and by proxy the Danger Mouse. It almost sounds kind of like that album "Rome," but with Lana and The Black Keys instead of Norah Jones and Jack White. Born to Die was so huge and had so many big tracks, I imagine a lot of people are going to be disappointed. I'm also very curious to hear how she is going to tour the album, I saw her about a month ago and it was so loud you couldn't hear her or the band a lot of the time.

Ronson produced Locked Out Of Heaven and some other tracks. It isn't the first time, his album Versions was him ft. Amy Winehouse, Santogold, ODB, etc. I don't think it is unreasonable for the guy who did 90% of the legwork and has the track for his album going first.

RevKrule posted:New Giorgio Moroder album is incredible. Lots of different hotness on it (Sia, Charli XCX, Kylie, Foxes) and he creates a song that fits their style perfectly. If you even have a passing interest in Moroder, it's a must listen. If you didn't like his match up with Britney for a remake of Tom's Diner, it's the weakest song on the album so don't worry. Love Deja Vu and the Kylie song but Diamonds isn't doing anything for me. Not a bad album overall.

This kind of feels like Lana's least accessible album yet. It isn't grabbing me the way the first two did but I'm hoping it grows on me. It is like a noir take on the Beach Boys.

All this Ri talk but the new Sia album is out there and it is pretty loving fun. The Adele track is better than 85% of 25.

DC Murderverse posted:Ultraviolence is real real good, especially the first half. It's a very mood dependent album, but when I want to listen to it nothing else will do. I basically cut tracks 6-9 and include the B-Sides and it may as well be a masterpiece. Honeymoon was a drag comparatively and I don't expect her to every really come back from it.

Wheat Loaf posted:And just look at the British singles charts. Nine out of the top 10 songs are Ed Sheeran songs and most of them aren't even singles. This is just the new age of streaming, whenever someone drops a new disc they try and tout this. After Starboy dropped, the Weeknd charted the entire album at one point.

Oh I believe it. The way playing shows was explained to me was that you do a tour as the opener to make connections and then immediately do another tour of the same loop as the main act. Selling records and radio helps I'm sure, but if you're decent and the crowds dig you, I imagine you could make a decent living just touring even as a relatively unknown act.
