Experiencing Go! live was the most fun poo poo  e: Also, the band put up the entire album on YouTube in a playlist, making it ridiculously easy to listen to, which is super cool of them. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL7CZ4TImzrFlnd8hl5XaQJy5azWrIWu3o&nohtml5=False Rageaholic fucked around with this message at 22:22 on Apr 8, 2016 |

Parquet Courts is good but they were definitely a grower for me. It took a few plays to appreciate Light Up Gold and it seems like it'll be the same way for the newest album.

New Tegan and Sara single out today. Seems to have that fun synth-pop sound as Closer did. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6wR-gIajrgk

stoops posted:With Parquet Courts, if you want people to get into them, you first have to let them listen to LIGHT UP GOLD. this is a weird thing to say because I thought Light Up Gold was super boring outside of a couple tracks and none of it was particularly memorable this new album is fantastic though!! especially the title track, drat https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aiex9fYyuQg Pavement comparisons are obvious (and probably overstated) but with the slowed down grooves I get a real early Talking Heads vibe from some of these tracks, especially One Man No City

Footy is pretty good. I thought Wide Eyes was one of the better songs from Centipede Hz, but I'm not really sure at this point how much of that he wrote.

New M83 album is good but like a third of the songs sound like extended cuts of the theme to a primetime 1986 dramedy starring Angela Lansbury or Tom Selleck (Moon Crystal esp.).

Yeah the new M83 is somewhere in between yacht rock and tv show anthems.

And Good House is just beautiful. This is the best thing I've heard so far in 2016 and would probably be a contender for AOTY for me if I didn't already know the new Swans will take those honors

The ship has probably sailed, but I was the right amount of junk to really enjoy the set. It helped that he had good openers: Lizzo, who owns, and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-hukwN47gvA, who was entertaining as hell.

This Deakin album is pretty loving meager - ambient noise tracks aside, it's like 25 minutes and 4 tracks long - that being said, I've listened to "Just Am" about 3.000 times today. What a track!

I like the whole thing as an experience, it reminds me a lot of Feels.. which came out right after I got into them with Sung Tongs so those two have always been my favorites.

Mitski's new album is coming out soon and the first single from it is pretty good. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u_hDHm9MD0I Also, Mass Gothic's self titled debut album needs more love. Goes through half a dozen genres and nails em all. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3_8qX3hJjM8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=19HUtPCYdNI

There's a very cool Spotify playlist by an artist called WHITE that I've been listening to a lot lately: https://open.spotify.com/user/calledwhite/playlist/3WbewNHnfBzK3lndN1RRI4 It's turned me onto a few bands I haven't heard of before, the newest being this great Scottish post-punk band called Holy Esque. They've been around for a while so they may not be news to most of the posters here, but I guess they released their first LP a few months ago and I didn't hear a thing about it. They're very good and their singer's voice is incredible: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gtplUfQTRqY WHITE seems to be alright too, even if I like their taste in music significantly more than their music https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ScMy7NMMPJ8

Saw them a few years ago, and excited to see how much better they've become as a live band. It was a pretty excellent concert; Lauren Mayberry can really belt it out. As pretentious as it sounds, there's also an air or authenticity that keeps the band separated from mainstream pop. They all seem to really enjoy being there, they look like they're having fun, and they're overall very energetic. The banter between songs seemed wasn't canned and seemed fresh, which is what led to them inviting the furry audience members on stage to impromptu background dance for a couple songs.

Just be prepared to watch through a sea of phone screens. Their crowds tend to be particularly bad about that. Or maybe I'm just old now and this is reality, which is just as likely

When I saw St. Vincent right before her show started a computer voice came over the PA to ask kindly not to use your phones to record/photograph. Also when I saw Father John Misty there was a neon light setup behind him saying No Photography.. and then near the end of the show changed another color and flashed with the no part off PHOTOGRAPHY. Almost everyone listened to both, so I think if the artist cares nowadays, the audience will mostly abide.

Over the weekend I payed virtually nothing to get into a show with three local bands and the head liner that recently moved here called Queen Kwong. Great gritty indie rock set with her BF being Wes Borland who showed up to the gig as her lead guitarists. If you're into lady vocals, like I am, and a heavy punk rock distortion sound, really worth a check. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HEW-5cyDzi8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NkLXIbZ78Ws

I have a Jukely ticket for a sold out Wild Nothing show tonight. I'm not that excited about their live show but Whitney is opening and I'm pretty pumped to see what they play live with only two singles out at the moment. Whitney is an upstart of former Smith Western members that sounds a little America/Jackson Browne with an indie twinge. Their first single No Woman is excellent. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CGKN6qiDqnk

That is bizarre. One of my old mates from way back did all of their videos for a while and was constantly talking about them last time I visited. I thought they were just a local OKC thing, had no idea they had a national profile now. Pretty cool tho.

It's an album that grows, and it really clicked for me after seeing their show the other week. Those big goofy 80s tracks and sax are just rad as hell live, it's funky weird and great.

Saw Frightened Rabbit in Louisville last night, and they were loving awesome! The singer has great interaction with the crowd. "Hey, thanks for scheduling your famous horse race for the week we're in town. This is amazing!" I highly recommend seeing them if you have the chance.
