Lblitzer posted:This Oneohtrix Point Never is strangely amazing to listen to. I listened to it on a late night drive home this past weekend and it created such a weird atmosphere, basically giving me tunnel vision as I listened to it. I put this album on my ten best last year just for the atmosphere it creates. It is a great album but like any other sample heavy modified "IDM" it needs a place, it's a great night album and a great Google maps album (throw it on while you browse the world, it works great). While driving to it can really throw you for a loop blending the lights of the outside world with the auditory chamber you're riding in. I do have a few criticisms though, it's way to short and his other albums are nowhere near as composed as Replica. If you brushed it off before definitely give it a try.

CLAM DOWN posted:Deerhunter fuckin rules Real Name Grover posted:Another new (and really good IMO) Deerhunter song: "Breakers" Awesome.looking forward to this album. Loved Halcyon but could not get into Mono. So far so good. Also if you get a chance to see Lord Huron do so. They put on a great show.

gentle pete posted:The new Deerhunter album is insanely bad. This track in particular sounds like something you'd hear in a car commercial. Well, that's my indie rock opinion. Thanks for reading. This is a correct opinion. Snakeskin or whatever is really good. The rest of the album is just boring. I was excited after hearing that track and so let down.

BonoMan posted:I went to see U2 in 2000 and PJ Harvey was to be the opener. She got sick and instead we got Nelly Furtado. I still haven't forgiven the universe for that one. Don't feel bad, in 97 I saw U2 and Smashmouth opened.

Man after the new Shins and Real Estate albums being so mediocre I need some cheering up. I was hoping with a lot of my favorite artists releasing this year that it was gonna be great but man, so far it's 3 strikes. Really wish Lord Huron had another I. The tubes. Recommend me something fun.

Polo-Rican posted:So far I like Lost in the Dream slightly more than A Deeper Understanding, but jesus does this guy know how to produce an album. It sounds so good. I agree with this, but when ADU hits, it wails. There's some real phenomenal tracks here, but its saddled with lackluster songs towards the end.

resident posted:Hot take: Congratulations is their best song. It was a real good album but it didn't survive A summer of gypsy hippies in the NP. It was weird but like those cats were headed west.

resident posted:I loving love the energy in all their songs. It's like 90s grunge capitalism fueled hate but without all the self loathing & depression. I grabbed tickets to see them on a Sunday, but now looked at their tour and realized they are playing 3 hrs away on a Saturday night so I might have to do back to back nights so I can at least be appropriately intoxicated for one of them. God drat. Digging into this album just made my night. Thank you.

Rageaholic Monkey posted:New Tycho: This is the most “not Tycho” sound I’ve heard him produce and yet, it still sounds like Tycho. Dunno if thats good or bad so far but his catalogue had been getting awfully stale.

Sharks Eat Bear posted:IMO Funeral, Neon Bible and Suburbs is among the best first 3 full length album releases in indie history Interpol? Or is that more turn of the century dad rock?

Imhotep posted:The new Fleet Foxes is so good, which isn’t surprising but I think he just keeps getting better and better or at least as I get older and listen to indie music less, I appreciate the style of arrangements he’s been gravitating towards and the like modern classical and art pop influences. The sort of unexpectedly overt Steve Reich style strings on ‘Cradling Mother, Cradling Woman’ are so good and that track also samples an unused Brian Wilson vocal take I guess, but it still sounds very Fleet Foxes. Oh poo poo. Didn’t know he’s got new stuff out. Replica may be one my favorite albums of all time. Thanks
