I love the Stop Making Sense font for the lyrics in the official streaming video. It fits with how heavily everything else on the album is aping Talking Heads.

So as someone who worshipped Toad the Wet Sprocket through the 90's and was seriously disappointed when they broke up, and then stopped following them when nothing new ever came out, I was blindsided by the knowledge that they've reunited and put out a new album last week, and it's just as good as anything they've done. Color me excited. I figure there's gotta be at least one other fan here. http://www.amazon.com/New-Constella...he+wet+sprocket The title track to me sounds like "okay we need a happy sounding radio hit" but the rest is much stronger, just like all their past records.

Zochness posted:Tycho counts as indie electronic right? His new single Awake came out a few days ago and it is fantastic, as usual. New album next year. I'm seeing him in Boulder next Monday. I am well hyped. Also, seconding the love for Cults. High Road is a great song. On top of this I just discovered that Frankie Rose (of the Dum Dum Girls) had released new music and Sorrow is loving awesome: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vSw2uJ95PBM

Everyone should listen to San Fermin. Put Matt Berninger in Sufjan Stevens with a female lead singer to duet with and you probably have pretty good idea of what it sounds like.

I was worried that San Fermin's lead male voice was too much like The National, but I really do like the album a lot.

thehoodie posted:New Los Campesinos! album leaked, called No Blues. It's really good. I love this band so much. They toned down on the poppy-tweeness of their old stuff and as a result have a lot cleaner and more coherent sound. But, of course, still the same ridiculous and brilliant lyrics: "A heart of stone, rind so tough it's crazy, that's why they call me the avocado, baby" I'm liking it a lot, too; "What Death Leaves Behind" is one of my favorite songs of the year. They also did a one-take video for "Avacado Baby" that's a lot of fun: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4-M_m1I1uKU

A buddy of mine is a drummer for a band in Los Angeles called Barbarian Overlords. It's a mixture of rock and blues. They posted the first album on their YouTube page. My personal favorite songs are The Ambassador and Code of the West. They are about to release their second album Rise Up in December. Everything they've done has been self-funded, so you can't get more Indie than that. They'd be happy to hear any feedback from you guys.

^I imagine anyone who'd like Lucius would also like the Mynabirds Anyway, Andrew Bird has a new EP out 11/12, I Want to See Pulaski at Night, which includes the title track + six instrumentals. That song is as good as just about anything on Break It Yourself, IMO.

Ah crap. I won't be able to make it to the Cut Copy concert at the Fox Theatre tonight. If any Bay Area (especially Oakland) goon is interested in two free tickets (seated), send me a PM or email ASAP. While I was still really excited to see them, I must admit to not 100% feeling Free Your Mind but it's just my first impressions. I like it better than Zonoscope though.

I saw Lucius the other night. It was my second time seeing them, and they put on a great show (although I was disappointed and somewhat puzzled that they didn't play "Hey Doreen"). They seem to be really coming into their own as a band. It was definitely a stronger performance than when I saw them this spring. Anyway, it was Halloween, which meant costumes. The opening band Alpenglow (who I also enjoyed a lot) hilariously dressed up as Lucius:  And here's Lucius:

Lucius is on a sort of cusp for me, I love Wildewoman as a whole and their mellower portions measure up to oher music I like, but I want them to go harder. 'Hey Doreen', 'Nothing Ordinary' and 'How Loud your Heart Gets' blow my loving mind and I want more of that.

I've been lurking in this thread for a few weeks and I don't like 95% of what people post but the 5% I do enjoy is really awesome . To pay the thread back Volcano Choir, a side project of Justin Vernon from Bon Iver, released a new album a few months ago. It's way less experimental than their first album, here's my favorite song from the album: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f4dZbJHT7_4

I haven't seen any posts about this yet, but the band Moon Hooch just released their first album recently. I'm not 100% this is the right thread for them, but that's mostly because they are so unlike anything I've heard before. They're a three man group of two saxophonists and a drummer. It's a weird set-up to be sure, but they are absolutely phenomenal. Here's the first track off their album: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=slOTvMN0i-Y It's really awesome stuff, and I don't think you'll find much else like it these days. They opened for They Might Be Giants back in march, which is where I first heard them. If anyone ever has the chance to see them live, absolutely DO NOT PASS IT UP. They put such energy into their show, it was incredible to watch. I've never seen a band put so much passion and energy into their performance, and it totally took over the audience. I've been gushing about this band for the last few months, and I'm super excited they have an album out. Give them a chance if you haven't yet! They're a super cool group.

I think he's incredibly gifted, but The Swimming Hour and Mysterious Production etc. are the only albums I really, really enjoy listening to from start to finish. I actually enjoyed Hands of Glory more than Break It Yourself, even those the former is mostly covers; the LP had some tracks ("Desperation Breeds," "Hole in the Ocean Floor") that I thought bordered on self-indulgence. That said I really like "Pulaski" — some of his best work with the violin IMO.

I absolutely adore Contra. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mvvo9PfB0h4 Of course, I'd feel terrible not suggestion also to look up Riot Jazz Brass Band. I feel like this thread gave me both of these recommendations a bit ago? And then Broken Bells released a new Single. Not sure how I feel about it yet. It still feels like their continued departure from their first album which was amazing, but at the same time, it's still really good, (and that bridge). I dunno, I feel like I'll hate everything by them after that first album. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uBlRcLfHVAk. Master_Odin fucked around with this message at 23:29 on Nov 6, 2013 |

Any other Ozma fans here? This is a band I first became aware of thanks to these forums, many years ago now. I remember people describing their debut Rock and Roll Part Three as "the real third Weezer album." Anyway, after releasing three albums, breaking up, reuniting for a fourth album, and then going on a long hiatus, they recently announced that album five is in the works. They have a Pledge Music project which has already surpassed its goal. I'm looking forward to hearing what they come up with after the long break. Also, Daniel Brummel, one of the principal singers and songwriters from Ozma, has a new band, Sanglorians. They just came out with their first album, and it's great. Really energetic power pop with crunchy guitars, orchestral flourishes, and guy/girl vocals. The whole album is streaming on their Bandcamp. Highlight tracks for me are "Liberty Bell," "Love is the Speed of Light," and "Love is Like a Line."

Maybe the Moon Hooch fans here would dig Misteur Valaire. They're jazz musicians doing electronic/pop music. There's not quite as much brass in their more recent stuff, but they still use it to great effect. http://soundcloud.com/misteur-valaire/dontgetla
