I'm sure we've got Rod Stewart lined up again, or some hologram Rita MacNeal show to look forward to Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still listen to bossanova and trompe le monde regularly. Even if there are a few good new tracks I'll most likely at least purchase them.

GLASSJAW Posted September 30, 2016 Author Share Posted September 30, 2016 Pixies last album, Indie Cindy, was pretty bad. I like a couple songs off it, but mostly it is bad. went into the new one with very low expectations as a result, and was pleasantly surprised. Not great, but pretty good. I think it's a little tacky that their new bass player, Paz Lenchantin or whatever, sounds like she's trying to sound like Kim Deal, or that's just a weird coincidence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GLASSJAW Posted October 1, 2016 Author Share Posted October 1, 2016 goddamn, I cannot get enough of this Hamilton + Rostam album. this thing just grows on me more and more. it really reminds me of a small survey of rock music, almost. like, so many styles are being represented here - in that sense, it's like those two fantastic Girls albums from a couple years ago. anyway, it's more diverse than The Walkmen, but still consistently good. not as easy-to-digest as Vampire Weekend, but maybe a bit more rewarding in that it isn't immediately so catchy just a fantastic album if you give it time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the very least, "pretty good" pixies can chew up 40+/-minutes of my day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beluga Whale Posted October 2, 2016 Share Posted October 2, 2016 Not sure how I feel about the new Bon Iver. Seems pretty hit or miss as I love some songs (10 deathbreast, 29 Strafford, 000000 milion) but some do nothing for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GLASSJAW Posted October 3, 2016 Author Share Posted October 3, 2016 IMO, new Bon Iver is just pretty good. I really like some songs, I really like some hooks. but the production and the back-n-forth threeway spitball between Kanye, Bon Iver, and James Blake is just boring to me now.

I've given it a few more listens and I'm actually loving it now. Just like For Emma it needs time to grow on you. I don't mind the similar productions as long as it doesn't go on much longer. I wouldn't even be surprised if Bon Iver's next album goes back to their old style. September was a pretty amazing month for music: Preoccupations, My Woman, Skeleton Tree, Close Eyes to Exit, I Had A Dream That You Were Mine, Atrocity Exhibition, 22 a million. Damn I feel like that makes up most of my favorite albums for the entire year right there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beluga Whale Posted October 6, 2016 Share Posted October 6, 2016 Loving this song so much right now. That's Hope Sandoval (Mazzy Star) and Colm Ó Cíosóig (MBV) with Kurt Vile. Their new album is out in November I think. Also just found out about Jumping the Shark from Alex Cameron. Solid album. Kind of a Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds vibe. Jenny Hval's Blood Bitch is pretty good too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GLASSJAW Posted October 6, 2016 Author Share Posted October 6, 2016 ^yeah, that song is good been listening to newest Thee Oh Sees a fair bit today. some really good songs on there. this one is one of my favs. really sounds like some vintage, classic rock filtered through some contemporary noisy garage rock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really like everything from Unwrap the Fiend pt 2. onward with Axis being a great finish. Nice sound diversity with some sick riffs too. Is that a cello in the second to last track? I've never heard them before but I'd like to hear more. Which album do you recommend I check out next? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
