Whoever mentioned Los Campesinos!, thank you. I just got a couple of their albums, and they're fantastic. I'll spit in one of my own in return, The Asteroids Galaxy Tour. You've almost certainly heard one of their songs before, between a beer commercial (Golden Age) and an iPod commercial (Around the Bend), but it's really happy poppy music, and their new single, Heart Attack is their best yet, IMO.

Grantonio posted:Yeah, Some Nights by fun. seems to be a pretty amazing album. You can all stream it(do it) at ournameisfun.com I discovered Fun. today in probably the most roundabout way, someone posting a link to We Are Young, which I had only heard through Glee, and when I listened to it, I realized that it was a band that contained the lead singer of The Format, who released Dog Problems, which I love. So now I'm listening to their first album, and I'm really close to ordering both Fun. albums on vinyl. Just some really solid pop music. I love it, like a more production heavy Tinted Windows.

The autotune bugs me a little, but I'm sure that will go away after future listens. I'm really mad that I'm gonna miss them when they come to Iowa City. I'd love to see them do a show, this sounds like it will be very conducive to live shows.

Oh god, next month is so loving exciting. New Beach House, Best Coast, and Teen Daze, all within 8 days of each other. Also, you sound like you have very similar tastes to me, JohnnyWarbucks, so I'll recommend Girls and Telekinesis as well. edit: And Cults. It's really poppy in comparison to all of the others, but gently caress it's so catchy. Yoshifan823 fucked around with this message at 20:21 on Apr 2, 2012 |

pksage posted:Washington DC band Jukebox the Ghost just put out a new single, and it's amazing. They've been compared to Phoenix a lot, but that's mildly disingenuous beyond the occasional dance-y beat. Give 'em a listen if you like upbeat/poppy indie stuff. This is really awesome, it's like a combination of Fun. and the voice of John Darnielle.

Walked posted:Hey, someone toss me a new album suggestion. I've been through this entire thread; but I literally have spotify on for 8hrs+ a day and that means I run through music insanely quick. Not an album, but the We Are Hunted app on Spotify is a great sampler platter of a bunch of different bands.

MC Fruit Stripe posted:Every year it's the same poo poo. You hear the albums you hear, you don't hear the albums you don't, but then the next year comes. Are you like me? Do you end up starting fresh every year and never really getting to a lot of the music you meant to check out? I do it every year. Yeah, this is getting some serious play from me too. I just love that poppy sound, it's kind of Vampire Weekend-esque. edit: No wait, I'm thinking of Hospitality. Chairlift is good too, but Hospitality is just awesome.
