Today I listened to...

Destroyer put out another new song, also off his new album coming out in like a month:

Really excited to hear the full album.

[JB]

New METZ album. Really good, but seemed a bit short. It could just be that I'm really busy at work right now and albums usually fly by when I'm working. Either way, it's good. Stoked to see them next week.

Fuck yeah Shark Tits, I feel bad for anyone who hasn't had a "Smiths phase", usually coinciding with almost daily crying phase lol

This shit is still so good, "random character select, I have no luck, disconnect the smoke alarm when I show up" 

[JB]

I've never had a Smith's phase. Don't feel bad for me.

New Burial single:

i found this really cool chinese post-punk band today. they have kind of a gothy vibe, very bauhaus influenced, but their songs have some really cool build ups and layering going on that reminds me of newer swans stuff (probably not the best relation, but it was the first that came to my mind). starts off a little slow, but its good stuff. i listened to their album from 09 and really dug it. they just put one out last friday and im about half-way through it right now and im glad i didnt start with that one because its not very good. they tried to introduce a bunch of electronic elements into their sound, but the result is not as exciting as the post punk stuff on the earlier albums. to me it sounds very out of touch and not like something that would be coming out in 2017.

i like some of their songs and i like johnny marr's guitar playing. i cant help but laugh at morrisy's sappy lyrics though. hes so literal and the way he sings is just impossible for me to take seriously. he makes me laugh more than he makes me cry.

She doesn't play with them anymore. I think she did around '14 when they toured, but her and Francis don't get along and she took her own private tour bus and didn't spend any time with the band.

It's a bummer, but who knows how many more chances I'll get to see the rest of the band play. I've watched a few of their newer sets on youtube and was a little underwhelmed because of the lack of energy, but I know its been 30 years since they were in their heyday. I'm sure that being there live will be better than watching it on youtube though.

'no snake, no aloha' -- kim deal

[JB]

i shamefully admit that ive never listened to the breeders

[shark tits]

well jb, i think it's high time you did. pixies are the best band ever but they're catalog is finite so it's ok to listen to other stuff. they got me through a lot of bad times.

max palmers song from call me 917. 'still an  idiot, still in love' is mad catchy.

[Huell Howser]

no time like the present friend!




the amps; aka the breeders while kelly deal was in rehab I think. whole album is great

[JB]

I played last splash right after I made that post. Good stuff. Don't know why I waited so long. I'll check out Pod on the way to work tomorrow.

I've listened to a bunch of Black Francis albums and his stuff is great. Not sure why I never gave Kim a shot.

[the snake]

listened to frank black a lot too, too bad kim isn't in the band anymore, look how great she is on stage

[JB]

New Omni album. Might be one of my favorites of this year. Great post-punk stuff.

Came here for that and got swamped in sadness cause I love Kim Deal's voice and hadn't listen to Last Splash in 20 years.

[Glue Reed]

Rest in Peace Charles Bradley.  By far the best modern soul singer, quite an amazing/tragic/sad life but amazing that he managed to live his dream at the end of his life.
