it DOES sound a lot like bloc party meets tv on the radio. that is a really good song, checking out the album asap.

this album by Foxygen is super good! holy. it's to the rolling stones what tame impala are to the beatles.

is there an equivalent for music, do you think? i've been trying to notice consistences for 'album of the year' type releases, stuff with mega hype, and i can't really notice anything
my brother said labels try to get bands to release albums in like march so that they'll be at their peak of popularity for "festival season"
my friend works in a record store and he told me that bands used to release albums to coincide with christmas, but now that less people buy music and festivals got so big, that isn't the case any more.

i like basically everything that sounds like a bedroom recording with lots of reverb and delay and stuff.

that new youth lagoon song IS really nice

yeah i heard he plays "don't think twice, it's all right." which may be my favourite song ever written. top 5, at least.
i understand why they ripped it apart, and most of their comments are fair. it's sometimes pretty damn cheesy in terms of instrumentation (sax rarely "works" for me.) but it feels kinda like reading the journal of someone close to you that you're worried about. doesn't matter if it's poorly written or whatever, it's too interesting and sincere to ignore.

been listening to tame impala almost non stop lately.
christopher owens announced a vancouver show in march at the biltmore. i'll go if it's pretty cheap.

Vampire Weekend's third album is influenced by jazz, Bob Dylan and The Clash according to Rostam Batmanglij.
The multi-instrumentalist spoke to Uncutabout the forthcoming album, the US band's first since 2010's 'Contra'. Discussing the influences and sounds the band are creating, Batmanglij said: "The goal was to use organic sounds and put them in a context that you might not have heard before. It's certainly darker and grittier than 'Contra'. A lot of these songs are about conflict. They're about the choices we can make, being able to do what we want with our lives."
He added: "With 'Contra' I was interested in a kind of arty, '80's New York sound, but this album goes deeper. It gets into the '50s and some of it sounds like jazz, but broken down into its most basic elements and played in a very simple way. It's more of a subtle kind of complexity and there's an intimacy to the performances, both vocal and instrumental, that are very special. I think the sound of the piano is central to the record."

There's three dudes standing in an elevator. One of them says
"Hey guys, my name is Chad, nice to meet you!"
And the second guy says
"Woah, my name is Chad too, nice to meet you as well."
And the third guy says
"YOU GUYS ARE NEVER GOING TO BELIEVE THIS! BOTH OF YOUR NAMES ARE CHAD!"

a bunch of japanese artists covered songs from Loveless and it's called Yellow Loveless. some of it is really cool, the version of When You Sleep is awesome and silly.
