You may like Teen Daze: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tHEpoMalW4c And I don't think anyone mentioned it, but Real Estate is pretty great too: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7KtoZT7Nxbo They're both more like Tennis and Best Coast than Wavves.

Epi Lepi posted:I saw An Horse and Cage the Elephant open for Silversun Pickups there (all great bands that everyone should try). I was extremely confused when my GPS took me there, especially since I had thought I heard it was an outdoor venue. Cool place on the inside, but yeah, weird as hell location. Yeah An Horse is pretty rad. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DNfBLsC5SiA Edit: So Best Coast's new album came out today. I was a pretty big fan of the first, but I'm not sure how I feel about the new one. I really like the lo-fi sound and it's really pushed away from that. It's more...surf pop than surf rock I guess. Only halfway through the album though. appropriatemetaphor fucked around with this message at 00:49 on May 16, 2012 |

Schremp Howard posted:I've been digging Bear In Heaven's newest album "I Love You, It's Cool" a lot lately, particularly Sinful Nature. I love the variety of the synths and vocal melodies, this is easily my choice for song of the year so far. Yeah! That's my fav off the album too. "Lovesick Teenagers" off the previous album is probably my second favorite song of theirs. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VGS7vNLhxNA

Gio posted:Been listening to Unknown Mortal Orchestra's self-titled debut lately. They're sort of a garage/lo-fi psych rock-pop band with some really catchy tunes. Great summer driving music, too. I don't know, the lo-fi production (particularly the drums) kinda remind me of The Beta Band or Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti, actually. If this sounds like something you may sorta like then you should listen to a song or two of theirs instead of reading my terrible descriptions of their music! Yeah UMO is great! I can't wait for their next album which I hope will be a thing that occurs. I've been digging No Joy lately. A shoegaze band. https://vimeo.com/23839582

resident posted:Atlas Sound was one of the better concerts I've seen but that was in a tiny theater at the Brooklyn Academy of Music and I have no idea if his show will translate to a festival. Nicolas Jaar has an interesting ambient/techno sound but if it's just him sitting at a PC pushing buttons I could see it being really dull. Danny Brown is kind of insane so I think he will be worth it if you like hip hop. Yeah Grimes is pretty cool live. She hops around and is totally into it.

The Biscuit posted:I saw METRIC in Berlin. Unfortunately I couldn't get their album before the show (as I was on holiday), therefore I found it hard to get into. As despite the name, and being a fan of electronic music, I wasn't ready for the amount of synth in the songs. My favourite new song is "the void", I predict this will be a single. I managed to buy the CD at the gig, and it is growing on me. I like this new album a lot more than Fantasies, it feels a lot more like her older stuff.

Their current album is great but I like the one before last (At Echo Lake) a bit better, such hits as: Live version of Blood Dries Darker https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jNHo36esMyQ Some video of Death Rattles with some witches and stuff https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t3Z9t7h2ERk Also I think they're pretty well known, but they were in a related video and Cassie is pretty  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eyWQFGFKp74

I thought Phoenix only had that one album with the bombs on it  Here's some stuff I've been listening to. DWNTWN - kinda dream pop synthy stuff, featuring MacArthur Park, some birds, trees https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bnm_juMnX0w Jenny O. - indie pop I guess, sorta folksy, in a van, in silverlake https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V1AqrrFzOaM Peach Kings - bluesy rock with a hot lady with a golden microphone in a van again https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zVgCGGKbrD4 I'm really digging this jam in the van thing. Here's The Babies - kinda like, lo-fi indie rock I guess. Fun story, when I went to see them live I parked next to Cassie Ramone and was like "hey" and she said "hey". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NCFlWy1xM9o And while I'm at it, Veronica Falls is cool and here's my favorite track off the album - they're like lofi twee-ish indie pop https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8A8yRqDIrBw

I listened through the new album, it's alright I guess. I ended up just going back and listening to their first album though.

jiffypop45 posted:Was a good concert overall, though she played mostly older and "teaser" songs despite like you said most of the previous set lists indicating that she would be playing predominately new album material. She had a lot more personality than I was expecting and interacted with the crowd a lot. I saw a free show that Tennis did some months back, they were pretty solid. The main person talked to the crowd and seemed into it.
