D-Money Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 I overplayed VW soooo much in its first few weeks, definitely need a break from it, but yeah, it may even be better than Nick Cave and the National for me. I also very highly rate the latest Iceage, Deerhunter, Kurt Vile, Baths, My Bloody Valentine, The Knife, and--yes--even the new Phoenix has grown on me biiig time. But I totally agree, D-Money, Tame Impala still has them all beat by the pretty big margin Tame Impala was something special. Probably my favourite album of the last 5 years. It was completely new to me too, because I hadn't heard Innerspeaker before either. I'm glad it came last year, because the rest of 2012 was terrible. I really admire the new Deerhunter because of how bold and brash it is, but I haven't been able to make it through more than a few songs at a time before losing interest. Maybe it will grow on me. Has anybody heard the new These New Puritans yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hume Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 Rifflandia has big names, like last year, but they just happen to be a lot of names that i don't like. hate Edward Sharpe, never really got into DFA, am not interested in Big Boi's post-Outkast work, don't like Matt & Kim, Stars, Wintersleep, etc. etc. wheras last year i felt like it catered to what i like, with the flaming lips and the antlers and stuff. further down in the line-up, a lot of bands i'm friends with made it, which is rad, but i could see them for like $5 at bars in vancouver so naaah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GLASSJAW Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 edward sharpe has a few good songs IMO, but i couldnt care less less about matt and kim or DFA what do you guys think about the new Pixies song? i didnt like it for like 60 seconds, then it really kicks in and i sort of love it maybe not LOVE it, but for a band that hasnt really done much in a decade, its good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D-Money Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 So I listened to the new These New Puritans... ...ummmmmm... ...pretty wacky. There are brief moments of brilliance, but too much Time Xoning going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GLASSJAW Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 i listened to half of it then just deleted it, can't imagine ever bothering with it again not my thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-Money Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 I loved Hidden, and even enjoyed parts of their debut. But the new one is just silly. I didn't mind the first couple songs on the new Queens of The Stone Age album, but lost interest pretty quick. Not my thing anymore. Probably would have loved it 15 years ago though.

GLASSJAW Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 Man, i LOOOVE the new Smith Westerns. At first I wasn't crazy on it, but like 8 listens later I totally hear new stuff in it that I missed the first few listens. Such a great band Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D-Money Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 New Laura Marling is excellent: Not a fan of the new Frightened Rabbit at all (and I loved their last two), however, this track is killer: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrainWetzky Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 New Sigur Rós album Kveikur is great. Much better than their last one - Valtari, which was a disappointment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GLASSJAW Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 not 2013, but i decided to re-listen to that DIIV album a few times and i think it's really, really great. at first i was really annoyed by it (sounds derivative on the surface), but now I "get it" -- sounds like Wild Nothing meets Grateful Dead, sort of Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KFBR392 Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 not sure how many of you guys and gals like hip hop, but I've been playing this repeatedly lately. Older song, but its terrific. He was an incredibly talented guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bookie Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 Did he die, Eyedea? I had one of their albums maybe 10 years ago or so, dude was incredibly fast although I found his lyrics somewhat silly. I might have mentioned this already a few pages back but I forget and it's worth mentioning again re:hip hop, Killer Mike and EL-P released a free album a little while back. Can't get enough of these two, I hope they continue to collaborate: http://foolsgoldrecs.com/runthejewels/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bookie Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 British psych-jazz collective The Heliocentrics have a new album out and it.is.fantastic. Best listened to in its entirety with headphones on and a spliff in hand, but here's a sample Daughn Gibson's new album is pretty f'd too, in a different direction, like Kurt Vile meets Mark Lanegan with hints of Donovan and Smog: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
