This performance by Lucius for NPR's Tiny Desk series has completely captivated me. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Pk_2dVPjms I bought the EP and it's really good, but there's something about the simplicity of the Tiny Desk Concert that I think works even better than the studio version.

Pretty much everything Lucius is gold as far as I'm concerned. I've been listening to their EP on the reg since it came out a while ago, but the album is finally dropping next week. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dgoXeWUlnnk

In case anyone likes this, NPR put their whole first album (out Oct. 15) up on First Listen: http://www.npr.org/2013/10/06/228829430/first-listen-lucius-wildewoman It's frickin' fantastic.

mr. mephistopheles posted:I bought this album today because of this thread and I have listened to the entire thing three times through, which is something I never do. poo poo is great, thanks for posting it. I didn't like How Loud Your Heart Gets too much the first time I heard it, but it's grown on me. Go Home is probably my favorite off the album, it's just a great song with such intense delivery.

mr. mephistopheles posted:I like those two especially because I feel like they go together and are written to the same person, although I might be projecting my own personal relationship onto the songs too much. It reminds me of how Adele did Rolling In The Deep and Someone Like You about the same person, and how one is the self-deluded "I can do better gently caress you" song and then the final song on each album is the true feelings hopeless love song. Cool, I will have to have a listen with that in mind! I do like the song quite a bit now anyway, if that wasn't clear. The whole album is pretty much gold all the way through as far as I'm concerned.

SkyeTheBard posted:This is going to sound really vague, but here goes... Long shot, but it wasn't this, was it? Not quite that story line, but it is a space-themed folk song that one might potentially interpret that way. https://soundcloud.com/danwarren/survival-machines-1 This is from my album The Scientist, which I posted on SA a long time ago when it came out.

fishtobaskets posted:This caught my ear from the opening of ep 5 of Luke Cage. I keep listening to it trying to figure out what I like so much about it. His flow has this laid back, bouncing quality that feels old school. None of his other stuff really sounds like this so it kind of seems like lightning in a bottle, but it's really good. Yeah I bookmarked Jidenna to look at later after seeing him on Luke Cage. Seems pretty decent and lol at the start of this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YF8WPsyA0aE

Dio would have rocked this song hard imo I'm sure there are other entries, but JCS is a pretty good candidate for musical with the best music ever. Plot was a bit of a rehash though, I mean how many loving times are we going to reboot that story?

There's a whole bunch of hipster bands that seem to be based on the premise "I don't think anyone under 40 has heard the thing we're directly copying". Not always a bad thing as long as the music's good. I saw Lucrecia Dalt the other day and the whole show I was just like "oh this is exactly Laurie Anderson with no sense of humor or joy".
