Couldn't be more appropriately timed.
Holy shit that version of Ambulance Blues is outstanding.
No Sturgill or Isbell, eh? Mmmmkay...
Yeezus, etc. sounds like the weirdest collaboration ever between Wilco and Kanye.
Daughters of the Soho Riots is such a gorgeous track. I’d add “Exile Villify” from Portal 2 as well.
Now I remember why I haven’t played this one through in a long ass time. I remembered hating Highly Suspicious and it has unsurprisingly not aged well. But I completely forgot the schmaltz of “Thank You Too!” Ugh.
I can't remember the last time I listened to this in its entirety front to back. Gonna have to remedy that on the patio this evening. If nothing else, it will be worth the anticipation of getting to that final one two punch.
Caught most of the FJM stream earlier. That band he's touring with really adds some punch to the new stuff. Hangout at the Gallows especially stood out.
This song was on some early 90's compilation I had on cassette called "Rap's Greatest Hits Volume 3." There were some jams on it. "My Mic Sound Nice" by Salt n Pepa, "Nobody Beats the Biz," "My Adidas," "I Know You Got Soul." Ahhh....memories.
Saw them there for both The Suburbs and Reflektor. I loathe that venue (mainly the drive from Clear Lake and back home) but they were awesome both times.
Say what you want about Everything Now (and it's only half bad), I wish they were coming to Houston. Not many bands I don't miss when they come around but AF remain one of them. This song always reminded me of Neil Young on the EP, btw.
Maybe Villeneuve will tab him for the new Dune? El's collecting vintage action figures apparently.
Well, McDonagh is Irish...So it comes from a little closer to home for you.
I missed at the few theaters it actually played in near me for a very limited run. But I'm with you on In Bruges. I LOVE that film. For a such a dark comedy with some fairly questionable content it's a truly beautiful film. And fucking hilarious.
One, this medley is fine. It actually cheered me up to a degree. Two, I hope you're trolling. Even if so, not a great job of doing it.
I LOVE love love love love this album, but Teatro is a comparable achievement for Lanois. And a standout fantastic Willie Nelson album.
Not to turn this into a TP fanboy thread, but how great are the Mitchum bros? They are just down for whatever "Dougie" wants. What? Plane to Spokane? Not only are we down, but we and the girls are coming with. What's that? You're not Dougie Jones but an FBI agent who has been missing for 25 years? We're still down. Never thought I'd love Jim Belushi in anything. I was wrong.
Oooohhh!!!! I've been waiting to hear this!!!!
I guess I needed the morning sob that this brought on.
Caught his show last night in Houston. He and his band are just locked in right now. So fucking good.
Agreed. And KOL tracks live are amazing as well.
I think they earned a victory lap for OK Computer.
I've seen this man and his fucking impeccable band about five(?) times since he toured with Paul Simon for Time Out of Mind. If Dylan comes to my town and I'm not there it means he outlived me.
Did you even listen to it?
"Carin" is one of my personal top 10 National songs. Alligator is so good. This new track is fuego.
I've easily watched the video for "Pure Comedy" 25 times now. What gives?
Scrolled down here to say pretty much the same thing. "Drown" is top 5 Pumpkins in my book. Also, "State of Love and Trust" is essential Pearl Jam.
That band absolutely smoked those two songs, especially "Call to Arms." Nice Rebel Alliance logo on that Telecaster too.
This comes the closest to how I reacted out of anything I've read here. Kept texting my friends about how I wasn't sure how I felt about using a political character to sing about a third of Hallelujah as some sort of tribute to both the genius of Cohen and somehow bring solace to people terrified of the next four years. I think it came from a good place, but was a bit off the mark for me to get the reaction they were going for, and it bordered on and possibly breached into the realm of bad taste. Goddamn Tribe was great.
Batshit crazy these days or not, dude can write a song. I thought this was lovely.
Elephant is definitely their best. The run from White Blood Cells through GBMS is pretty top notch.
This is a pretty song and all but it's understandable how this got trimmed from Get Behind Me Satan. That album is pretty stellar.
He said he hadn't heard back from Joe Perry and a journalist from Billboard asked Steven Tyler if he'd be participating in their farewell tour? What an asshole that person is. I don't care how you feel about Aerosmith, that shit is real life. Have some integrity and empathy.
Dude, I just replied to someone else's comment with pretty much the same reaction. I mean, I had an older sister who was way into hair metal in the 80's so I was indoctrinated on Bon Jovi and Motley Crue, but I kinda figured that song was so iconic that basically everyone who has ever turned on a radio in their life knows the chorus to that song.
Right? "Take my hand and we'll take it elsewhere?" The fuck is that? Who doesn't know the chorus to that song?
I just don't buy that this band expected this album to be ill received.
Super excited to get this delivered tomorrow. That album kicks so much ass but the mix made it sound like its being played in a room down the hall or something.
