Whilst the video is pretty stupid, I've been constantly playing this song by Melbournian Alyx Dennison to push through a breakup and I must share it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JJC7WBgYYOw Now as you lie next to me Its not of me you dream There is love in the room It's not you loving me I try hard not to breathe So that you can sleep If that isn't me loving you I don't know what it could be

In all seriousness I hope we get another Elastica album. Or just let their lead singer guest on a Breeders album.

I'm seeing Matt and Kim this week and a bit worried what it might be. Their new album was pretty disappointing, and some of the banter you guys are talking about sounds pretty cringey. Is their set list pretty balanced out, or just loaded with the new album?

IMO Matt and Kim are great openers but boring headliners.

Their new album was pretty disappointing, and some of the banter you guys are talking about sounds pretty cringey. Is their set list pretty balanced out, or just loaded with the new album? Most of the setlists available from this latest tour indicate 6 songs from Lightning and 5 from New Glow out of about 17-18, so you're probably out of luck. Relevant to recent discussion: Matt and Kim were dope when I saw them live, but that was nearly 5 years ago at this point. I was probably second or third from the rail at Metric's NYC Synthetica album release show and they loving ruled, even though the majority of the show was stuff I hadn't heard more than two or three times at that point. They did "Empty" and "Dead Disco" and the place loving erupted. New music discussion: the new Hot Chip record drops Tuesday and it's really great, probably right under "In Our Heads" for their second-best record so far. The album closer slays, it just keeps building.

In our heads is considered their best? Good for them. I loved the albums before that but just never got into that one

It's good, but in a world where The Warning and Made in the Dark exist, I'm surprised to hear anyone call that one their best. i'm a fan of the late-era stuff more than the early (and it's very possible i'm on the wrong side), but Joe Goddard himself said "In Our Heads" was his favorite so far. http://noisey.vice.com/blog/rank-your-records-hot-chip-joe-goddard I mean, if you like any Hot Chip, you'll like Why Make Sense. It's an expansion of the computerization they used on "IOH", pushing it further into different styles. The rap on Love Is The Future is probably the low point, but even that kinda fits. The live drums on the title track also blew me away. It's fun and detailed - basic Hot Chip but good Hot Chip.

If you search for Joanna Newsom on Spotify, you get exactly one track - The Muppet Show Theme. I wonder if this is a bug or working as intended.

Joanna Newsom's shtick got really loving old really fast and i'd be amazed if people actually listened to her music for an real length of time past release.

I have never listened to her. I have one friend who thinks her album Y or whatever is one of the best records ever made. what do you think her sctick is?

Have One On Me is a bit much, even if it is brilliant. Ys was pretty perfect.

Listen to her singing and you'll get it. The music itself is very orchestral and lush usually and she bases it all around the harp, however her singing gimmick to me personally gets old real quick. To each their own.

I don't think it's a gimmick, I think that's just her voice.

FactsAreUseless posted:Good, unnatural positions are awesome. Vocalists should be weird. Should be? Hmm, I don't think that makes very much sense. And no, no one 'naturally' sings the way she does, especially if they are a fully grown person. She's just overrated as hell is all I am saying and her voice is nails on a chalkboard to me, gently caress the lush arrangements otherwise.

FactsAreUseless posted:"Boy, I sure do like indie music, but only if everyone sounds normal, like Coldplay, or Mumford and Sons." Indie music is the norm now.... so what's your point? It's not some ultra creative genre mostly, it's formulaic music based on traditional rock. Thanks for putting words in my mouth, do you listen to black metal? Do you like the guttural growls? Man you must listen to Maroon 5 if you don't.

He was pointing to the way her face and throat move as proof of her faux pixie elf thing being forced unnatural singing for her, not that the appearance of it determined opinion. This rabbit hole has officially jumped the shark. I'm out.

Of course it is; Spencer Krug never does anything for more than a few years, and more power to him. That being said, Kaputt and Five Spanish Songs were great so I'm all for Bejar keeping it up
