EAT SHIT

Yeah but the compression there is coming from the sheer amount of distortion on everything (including the drums), not someone cranking a Waves limiter to get that consistent pop radio sheen

the new album is kind of like if you flipped the woods around and had it be pop with distortion instead of distortion with pop, so i think they managed to pull it off. i feel there's a lot of prog rock influences, bury our friends sounds like they were listening to jethro tull when they came up with the bassline

Feels like the opposite to me, The Woods has a lot of pop songs like earlier albums, just turned up with more grit and bombast. I've only listened to this one once so far, but it sounds a lot more raw and angular - there's pop hooks in there for sure, but on top of something edgier and more punk.

I was pretty surprised how different everyone's voices were! I know Carrie was doing something different with Wild Flag, but Corin's voice sounds a lot lower too. It's hard to pick out who's singing sometimes

A couple years back I had an itching for more poo poo like Sleater-Kinney (about a year after the Wild Flag album dropped) and discovered Screaming Females, and it was good. I was kinda hoping for Screamales as the opener, actually. Lizzo was great and I wouldn't trade her for anyone, but oh come the gently caress on

tell me it wouldn't be a perfect pairing

Hey thanks for posting this, I knew their song from Rocksmith but it got a bit lost in all there and I didn't give it a lot of attention, but now I know they're really loving good and I'm learning that song :allears: Marissa is a badass and a lot of their songs would be a good fit for an SK gig without scaring people too much
