I don't have an active Twitter account so I can't post whatever announcements they've made there, but I've been seeing on FB that Jakob is currently writing/recording a new album. It's been 7 years since their last one (Sines). I'm really looking forward to it.

Yeah I guessed so. There’s a few seemingly running on a couple of those frequencies, but the opening of the album sounds like the US HFGCS but the frequencies listed aren’t matching any in the track listing. Perhaps the frequencies are meaningless

I know I already mentioned it but GOD drat I'm so stuck on the most recent Grails, Chalice Hymnal. It covers so much ground, there's a song on it that legit sounds like Portishead Edit: and pursuant to Arab Strap chat, holy gently caress "Another Clockwork Day" is brutal: For the second time this week, he plugs in the external drive He clicks through his archive to find the folder he needs He knows this path well He was bored with himself, tired of routine Free Live Cams left him limp The sounds of commerce, a complete turn off And the films these days, with their surgery scars and bad tats And it's all stepmoms and stepsisters now What the gently caress's all that about? So ends another clockwork day Of worn out luck and waning click The last awake, a door shut time So ends another clockwork night No, he needed something real And now he knows where to find it IMG4329, the flushed flesh of new love in summer The curtains drawn, the sun secluded and a gift that fits IMG4378, fastening the strap of a sharpened shoe on a hotel table The puckish promise of a bended knee IMG4398, a borrowed hoodie and a bruised thigh The absent eyes of afternoon afterglow And the suspense of more to come IMG4457, wearing nothing but a new postcode Statuesque on the bedspread plinth in reddened room As family smiles from fresh IKEA friends IMG4564, the sleeping Venus in a half-painted kitchen As hopeful spermatozoa race to an oval's open arms IMG4382, an intimate closeup of a solitary act Sent like a love letter long, long ago Secretly sated once again He softly ascends to the bedroom And slips gently under covers to join a snoring spouse In the almost dark, she's hardly aged a day When he removes his glasses She looks just the same as she does in the pixels of those old JPEGs Those low-res memories buried in folders within folders Simone Magus fucked around with this message at 19:07 on Mar 31, 2021 |

It's all real good IMHO! Not to reiterate empty praise too much, I just never cared much for any release after Yanqui UXO until now. I really enjoyed Our Side Has To Win, but I will not deny that context plays a notable part of it.

It's really good. I preferred the first two tracks to the second two, but potentially I'd drifted off a bit and not paid as much attention later as I did earlier. It's all wonderfully competent though - great to listen to something that I knew I was going to enjoy and just being entirely satisfied that it was as good as expected.

Yeah, the album's great. I've listened twice and it's very cinematic, as Godspeed albums usually are. I wish I could see them play it live

Job's Lament is such a banger. Maybe the closest they've come to recapturing the opening two movements of Storm

I’ve liked all of their releases. There’s less filler in Towers and this new one but I love mladic so much that redeems that album. Behemoth as a whole is also a good piece of music.

You all seemed to enjoy my last release and at this point I'm about halfway through writing and recording a new album. This section is the centerpiece of the first part and is like 97% finished, just making tiny mixing edits at this point. I'd be curious to hear what some post-rock fans think if you want to check it out. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1AXJs4UW86gnoTxlCcFmy9xIuuVLk1HvY/view?usp=sharing

A friend of mine's band just released their debut full-length - post-rock with elements of black metal (more in the vein of Deafheaven, though, so maybe blackgaze?). It's really good. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h8kU1LpD9eA

I've seen them twice and both times were excessively weird shows. Awesome twinkly post rock is divine but post rock crowds are the laziest sleepiest most low energy crowds in existence. You have like 1,200 people squished shoulder to shoulder in the Starland Ballroom like it's a fuckin' brostep show but no one is moving, no dancing, just a giant mass of people listlessly floating to heavy noise and vibing like a kelp bed at the bottom of the ocean.

I saw them inside this gorgeous church with maybe 150 people in the crowd, that was a pretty amazing show.

Genuinely curious, what kind of whole-crowd dancing would make a post rock show more enjoyable to you? I totally get what you mean, most shows are just a few hundred people with beards swaying but, like, what's the alternative? poo poo like everybody sit down and jump up at the drop in Fear Satan? Actually, that would be pretty hilarious.
