Yeasayer's only been dead a few weeks and they've already reincarnated.

I'm admittedly on the back half of my 30's, but this lineup just confirms how perennially great Shaky Knees is.

When was the last time a band was on a streak like this? 2019 MVPs.

In the best possible way, this definitely sounds like a that dog. song.

And now it's on the internet for everyone to see. Crazy how that works, innit?

Gotta admit it's ballsy to launch a new label like this.

"Version 2" of the original Me and Magdalena is also wonderful: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y0HVzT60gjo

I luckily caught "What Once Was" on BBC radio a few years back and had one of those instant song obsessions that seem to get rarer and rarer as time marches on. I spent the next day exploring Cambridge listening to it probably 20+ times. I got a call that evening from my wife telling me I was going to be a dad. That song happened to wander by and bookmark a chapter of my life, and it brings back a rush of emotion every time I hear it. I am gutted by this news.

Without video proof I would have sworn a neural network wrote that headline.

100% agreed. Nice work Tom.

Dudamel is a big deal. And he's on 60 Minutes all the time (CBS synergy, yo.) Side question: was Beck's mic even on?

Couldn't agree more. And the fact that Aerosmith covered this song confirms my distaste.

Super solid, yes. God mode? IDK...something like that trailer for Sable is just on a whole different level.

Can someone start a competing "Number Ones" column so this can get the 10/10 it deserves?

"feat. Caroline Polacheck" is shorthand for "The song you're about to hear rules." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o86fnvYGQJc

Great tune. We're all better off now that Lizzy's back at it.

You can't listen to Carolina off Broken Dreams Club (or that entire EP for that matter) and then listen to anything Owens has released as a solo artist and tell me JR wasn't completely running the show.

Many respectable bands only put out one good album.

Version 2 of "Me & Magdalena" is a strong SOTY contender as far as I'm concerned. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y0HVzT60gjo

I was at that show in Albany too, drove from Buffalo. Seriously sketchy ride back in some incredibly inclement weather. Worth the trip. Weezer proteges Ozma were on that tour too.

The "Canadian Ballet" is American-Canadian border slang for the Canadian strip clubs. As in telling the border patrol agent in Niagara Falls that late on a Friday night you and your buddies are going to the "ballet."

They're 3 for 3 with the singles but I do wish this one was produced more like a Thin Lizzy or Badfinger track.

It's a Randall Marsh tune. Petty only sings backup on this one.

Modular has been sketchy since the beginning with this band. It seems like they were just ill equipped for the band to become so big. The Innerspeaker vinyl was originally advertised as being limited to 500 copies, but then it got repressed without any noticeable differences multiple times. Lots of vinyl nerd discussion about this over the years: http://www.discogs.com/Tame-Impala-Innerspeaker/release/2402720

Couldn't agree more. Kiss That Frog is absolutely the low point on US, but it's still better than half of UP. I always felt like the singles from US were its lowest points. And U2 steals the spotlight for over-the-top live shows in the early 90's, but Gabriel's Secret World Tour overshadows Zoo TV in every way but bombast.

Sounds more like Asleep at Heaven's Gate than Permalight, which is a good thing.

I think the NYT author mistook people leaving his recent LPR show early for a standing ovation.
