I went to the same high school as DIIV guy. He was a hipster d-bag stereotype then and based on the Pitchfork article not much has changed beyond the heroin addiction.

No, I meant: recently a label rereleased 3 older grimes albums, but grimes posted some stuff urging fans not to purchase them because that label has mistreated her and, in this instance, wouldn't even be seeing any money from this rerelease.

In an attempt to find a show in this dead time of the year, I stumbled upon The Peach Kings. They feel quite a bit like The Kills. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ChPOCmaK8g

I'm really digging the new Savages album. Reviews tell me that this is a step down, so I guess I'll really enjoy their debut, huh?

Duck Rodgers posted:Shearwater recently announced their new album Jetplane and Oxbow. I've been looking forward to this. It's been a while since Animal Joy came out in 2012. Meiburg has said that this will be a louder album, and the first single bears that out. Real Name Grover posted:As someone who loved the poo poo out of Rook and Palo Santo I'm not really feeling the electronic instrumentation here. Now that it's out, I'm happy to say "Quiet Americans" is kind of an aberration. The album is Shearwater's best since Rook, IMO. Particularly fond of "A Long Time Away" and "Filaments."

new Bloc Party album is streaming: https://www.youtube.com/watch?list=PLeHKD_xjZjfun3Vy3hIIRYwfg4dHuWhUJ&v=Zbl5MBzCMu0 it's still amazing to me how The Love Within manages to take a bunch of really solid component parts and then ruin it with a boring rhythm section and the single worst synth lead I have ever heard in a pop song

And it's sad because I want to like new Bloc Party music, but every time I hear some, I already kind of know it's not going to do much for me and then it proves me right. the second and third Franz Ferdinand albums were secretly pretty good though! not as good as their first obviously, but serviceable. the fourth album was pretty disappointing but had a couple decent tracks. and FFS was great whereas every Bloc Party album since their first was straight trash I never want to listen to again (We Are Scientists also had this problem though they had a few good singles on their later albums and their live set is at least 70% first album and the good songs off their later ones)

They played here last year at a sports arena (which seemed like a really odd choice for them) and the tickets were like $50, so I wasn't interested enough in them at that point to pay that price to see them again.

I'm consistently surprised with how big and how much brand new shows are considering their infrequency of releases and the quality. They're not..bad albums by any means, not just once every 4 years $50 stadium ticket good.

the new Savages album is a way better record than their first. I loved seeing them live last year (and look forward to seeing them again this year) but never liked their studio output at all until nowRollofthedice posted:I'm a bit surprised nobody here's talking about the new Chairlift album. It's really good! i kinda couldn't stand this band and hated all of the singles but i like a lot of songs on this album? which is really confusing. polymorphing and moth to the flame are both loving good becuase they have some actual warmth to them, while the rest of the album is that same mediocre coldly-produced indie pop that makes me dislike bands like phantogram abraham linksys fucked around with this message at 18:09 on Jan 28, 2016 |

Rageaholic Monkey posted:I saw Brand New in 2007 at the House of Blues here with Thrice and mewithoutyou and didn't think they were that great. I mean I've been listening to them since like 2002 and I was really excited for that show, but from what I remember, there wasn't much variety to their setlist. It was just slow depressing song after slow depressing song after slow depressing song. And I think Brand New does depressing songs well, but that's not all they've ever done. Too many of those in a row made me pretty uninterested. I saw them at a festival by accident in 2014 (with Modest Mouse, no less) and they had quite a varied setlist, and were way higher energy than I expected. Pretty even split from every album except Your Favorite Weapon, which was fine by me. The most surprising thing was all the underage kids who knew every word to the Deja Entendu songs. I loved that album when I was 16 but I did not expect it to have staying power.

The new St Lucia album is freaking me out because it sounds like it fell out of a time warp from 1986. Check this poo poo out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y_YcC8dw8pk I love their first record and I like this one, but I'm kinda bummed out it sounds like they went backwards in time. There's also nothing as ambitious and overstuffed as September or Too Close on this  e: I take that back, "Rescue Me" is as massive and ridiculous as those songs were and I love it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XSDYnd8AIc0 abraham linksys fucked around with this message at 18:44 on Jan 30, 2016 |
