No idea sadly Guess though itāll take another couple of years at most. Though their sound will likely still continue to grow, and having 3 members now means I wouldnāt be surprised in the slightest if we get moar piano
And fuck me, I forgot there was a new Sleater-Kinney album coming out this year and the first track is fucking mint:
Listening to the 2nd track and daaaaaaaamn, I can start to see why The AV Club rated it an A. Iām going to have a sore right foot from stamping along to this album and deaf from turning it right the fuck up. That and the production is utterly beautiful, Annie Clark aka St Vincent is a bloody amazing producer <3 Sadly there is nothing like the epic track Letās Call It Love off The Woods on this album though.
Oh and this is the 3rd downer album from one of the female lead bands I love this year, thanks a fucking bunch 2nd half of the 2010ās thou art a shit. Then again I have a ton of pick me up stuff in the library, like Last Night You Saw This Band:
Also - fuck youtube again, they should have recommended me The Center Wont Hold weeks ago, but it only turned up in my recommendations today while hitting older stuff like Pink Floyd.
Lastly - Sadly S-Kās drummer, Janet Weiss has left, which sucks because sheās a utter bad arse on the drums, which combined with the new sound of The Center Cannot Hold has the commentariat on The AV Club whinging that S-K have sold out. Like fuck they have, yes thereās synths and piano in this and the productionās flawless, but itās still got that punk/rock core thatās always defined S-Kās sound. And more radio friendly my fat butt. Because theyāre not a sausage feast singing mainstream rock āfriendlyā songs duh.
As a fan of both Scientist (a legend of dub reggae) and Khruangbin I was excited when Khruangbinās bassist Laura Lee said in an interview that she learned playing bass by listening to Scientist. Which makes it even more awesome that they recently collaborated with Scientist for their new album. I love it!
That new album is pretty cool, quite interesting experimental sounds between the pop melodies and punk riffs. Reminds me that I still havenāt listened to their older stuff. Starting now with the debut album.
Also reminds me that I still gotta watch the last 2 seasons of Portlandia. Carrie Brownstein is great
Tool all day, ever since I heard they have finally added their full catalogue to Spotify. Canāt wait for the new album to arrive. Only 7 more days. In the meantime ā¦
A friend on Twitter linked me to this, to congratulate me for being awake with the sun for a change (instead of going to bed when the sun came upā¦), I think.
Either that or he was not so subtly reminding me I am āoldā, since this album came out when I was a teen.
Almost totally forgot about this band, and this album.
Seems to give my coffee a higher octane ratingā¦
Well, after coming in and reading a particular thread (thankfully locked before I got hereā¦),
All I can say is- the Wheels Of Confusion were spinning in a certain someoneās head.
Wow.
Justā¦ wow.
Wheels of Confusion
~Black Sabbath~
Long ago I wandered thru my mind
In the land of fairy tales and stories
Lost in happiness I knew no fears
Innocence and love was all I knew
It was an illusion
Soon the days were passing into years
Happiness just didnāt come so easy
Life was more than fairy tales and daydreams
Innocence was just another word
It was an illusion
Lost in the wheels of confusion
Running thru valleys of tears
Eyes full of angry delusion
Hiding in everyday fears
So I found that life is just a game
But you know thereās never been a winner
Try your hardest, youāll still be a loser
The world will still be turning when youāre gone
Yeah, when youāre gone
Youāre in for a fun listen then, because their back catalogue is fucking brilliant.
Also my right heel pad is still sore from stomping along to The Center Wont Hold. Which Iāve also made the mistake of reading the most critical reviews for and now also have slight eye strain from eye rolling on the utter wank that was the Stereogum one. Mostly it boils down to - ātheyāre tooooo differeeeeeeent!1!!ā
Otherwise finally got around to giving 27 Passports a full listen (angry sauce dinner takeās about an hour to prep/cook) and daaaaamn. It good. Me listen to more.
Also added another peg to the set up that keeps my headset working and lo, I only need to tweak the new peg now if the sound goes odd/off. Really should get a new headset, but hey my Siberiaās drivers are still just as sweet as when I first got them, so nah.
Thatās why I never read or watch reviews of music that Iām already interested in. Why listen to Wankthony Wanktanoās opinion if I can form my own opinion by listening to the actual music myself?
that album came out half a year before I was born
sounds pretty cool! imo better than what the Ramones put out that year
I already listened to Toolās new album (yes ofc it leaked) and what can I say, itās 100% what I expected from Tool, no surprises but also no disappointments, just great songs and flawless production.
What Iām really excited about though is the upcoming Puscifer album (hopefully a bit earlier than the slated 2021). I just love that band. For me Puscifer > Tool > Titannica > APC
Yea itās wild, I think that song has been hibernating in my brain for 20 years as well.
Then suddenly I started humming it yesterday, then took a bit to recall who it was by (Used to have all the lyrics memorized, not so much anymore) and pulled it up on YouTube along with a few of his other tracks.
Iād never heard āUFOs are realā though, thanks for sharing that, enjoying listening it it now.
Found yet another thing lost from my music library when the hard drive derped. I knew Iād lost Portishead and Pluto but forgot completely about Peter Bjorn & John and Writerās Block until I saw a thing for it on youtube.
Iāve been listening to a lot of Jazz and some Funk over the last couple of weeks. Iām not all too familiar with those genres, so I had a lot to discover. Hereās 3 of my favorite discoveries:
I used to watch MC 900ft Jesus videos on the MTV back in the day, never owned any records but when I saw that name in your post, the memories came back
Never heard the UFO tune before either, when it came up in the playlist I thought it was a mistake since itās so different from the other songs. Now I love this guy even more
Been listening to oldskool rap all day long. Started with KRS-One and Wu-Tang (been a fan of these guys since the early 90s), but soon the youtube algorythm went deep into the underground. So I discovered some amazing tunes from the golden era, like these:
Next upā¦ hands down THEE best Sonic Reducer cover. Ever. For my money it is even better than the original. I will jump in the pit every time, without fail, for this song - and if you know whatās good for you, you will too, ya dig? There is only one way to listen to this song. Crank that shit to 11 and if you can find the 12 setting take it to the top.
You can thank me later for how much sex your ears are about to have.
Once upon a time a person that was less than human and in possession of approximately Zero class (thatās Zero, with a capital Z) told me that The Persuaders sucked. That person is no longer alive which is the appropriate state-of-being for life forms that lack class.
very rare Dave Grohl solo album, recorded in 1990 and released 1992 on cassette only
I love how I keep discovering more and more youtube channels with rare and (relatively) unknown music. Lots of collectors are digitalizing their old tapes and vinyls for all to enjoy. My own channel got a few copyright strikes already so I stopped uploading a few years agoā¦ strikes might be expired by now so I guess I should try again, I still got some rare stuff lying around thatās nowhere else to be found, at least not easily. Well since Iām talkin bout my channel I might as well post something
Hereās some rare but good stuff from my collection
Guess though itāll take another couple of years at most. Though their sound will likely still continue to grow, and having 3 members now means I wouldnāt be surprised in the slightest if we get moar piano
