Cyril Sneer posted:You know what I do love though? That new MGMT album. No idea they pulled that out of their rear end. Not every song is killer, but when its good, its really good. yeah I went from thinking it would be utter poo poo to listening to it every morning on the work commute. biggest surprise of the year so far

I just bought tickets to Radiohead. The most expensive concert ticket I've ever purchased, but I'm not complaining. Apparently, buying a ticket for the show (Toronto in July) was an absolute clusterfuck for a lot of people. A lot of folks are Mad Online but whatever. I'm just happy I'm going to see them.

I would've gone crazy if I'd been able to see Radiohead 10 years ago, but after their last 2 albums were massive disappointments to me, I don't think it'd be worth the money/hassle to get tickets to see them nowadays.

I got tickets to see The Mountain Goats in Tampa for $30 after fees and poo poo. Has anyone here seen them live before? How are they?

There are a couple of factors going into seeing them this time around. I did actually see them 10 years ago, and it's one of the best shows I've been to, ever. It was an outdoor show - by a lakefront - and it had rained throughout the day, so when Thom + The Boyz went on stage as the sun set, rainbows were all over the sky. Perfectly fitting for the In Rainbows Tour. They were supposed to come back in 2012, and I was going with a ton of people I knew (I think there was about 15-20 people all meeting up) and my ticket was a birthday gift. Things were cancelled because of a now-infamous-around-these-parts stage collapse. This is their first time back since 2008 that wasn't a festival gig or whatever. So it's technically been 10 years since they've been back in the city doing their own shows. The hype is real. I didn't like A Moon Shaped Pool, but I figure I've waited 10 years for this, and as I start to age up and enjoy more intimate concert experiences, and my tastes change, and so on and so on, I can at least do this and never worry about another show or album of theirs forever.

I saw them without even listening to an album of theirs and it was pretty fun. It was a street festival so they stuck to the "hits" and Beat the Champ material that they were supporting at the time. I imagine their own shows are much more varied and exciting to diehards.

Thanks, friend! Now rocking out to the new Screaming Females titled All at Once. I am a total Screaming Females fanboy so I obviously love it. Here's a song from this new album: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LhJ0n5G5jCo And here is what is probably my favourite cover of any song ever: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-qOdtoE5OCI

I feel like I've been waiting an ETERNITY for this after Hunt said they were working on something 2 years ago. I loving love this new song and immediately kickstarted to the Pledgemusic thing. Holy poo poo it's been so long, I forgot how much I loved them and I adore the new images and headers they are using, seems like they're going back to a Witching Hour feel.

I loving love this new song and immediately kickstarted to the Pledgemusic thing. Holy poo poo it's been so long, I forgot how much I loved them and I adore the new images and headers they are using, seems like they're going back to a Witching Hour feel. If you liked Witching Hour (and honestly, who didn't), Helen has some good news for you. Quoted in this article: Rolling Stone posted:Jim Abbiss, who also worked on Ladytron's 2005 album Witching Hour, produced the track. "'The Animals' was the first new song we had, and with it we went immediately into the studio with Jim," Marnie said in a statement. "He's the producer who has really understood us the most." I have high hopes for this new album too. Velocifero had a few bangers, and I liked some of the experimental song structures they had on Gravity the Seducer, but they were sort of disappointments to me overall. I just don't find myself wanting to listen to them as much as much as I do their first three albums — 604 is so delightfully analog and they sound so young on it, Light and Magic is so sexy and summery, and Witching Hour is just such a complex, complete album. Do you (or does anyone else) listen to Helen Marnie's (d.b.a. "Marnie") solo stuff? I really liked Crystal World. Same great voice, same great synth sound (the record was produced by Daniel Hunt), but the lyrics are really well written and more emotional and vulnerable than anything Ladytron's done. "Submariner" still bowls me over. That outro... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ExEj44OoG1Y

Have actually just listened to Crystal World recently and totally agree on Submariner. I actually loved Velocifero and thought Gravity The Seducer was very good, even if it had a few very obvious and boorish filler tracks. I still think the first 4 songs on that album are fantastic. But yeah I'd love for something smooth akin to Flicking Your Switch to crop up on the album. The Animals sounds like a mix of Velocifero and the older stuff so I'm enthused with a march away from the crystalline world that Gravity The Seducer was comprised of, going back to the blacklights of the first 3 albums.

So Mayer Hawthorne's side project as Tuxedo just released a song with Zapp, it's actually really awesome. Feel like ever since Uptown Funk blew up there has been a renewed interest in early 80's funk/boogie which I'm all for https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rnvFu5gHCTE

No idea if this is the thread for it, but I stumbled onto this band Monster Treasure on Spotify late last year and I'm smitten. They seem to still be completely unknown so I want to at least spread the love. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N414UxliqP8 e: While I'm here I want to add that Charly Bliss is like my new favorite band, period. kidcoelacanth fucked around with this message at 20:09 on Mar 3, 2018 |

Right now I'm at On the Mouth. Their first album was aight. I really liked Slack Motherfucker, but that's the only one that really stood out to me on a single listen. I really liked No Pocky for Kitty, though.
