Necro bump and jumping on another thread (some great recs here), but I've landed a real fluke thing; I'm screening an animation wot I done at Burning Man festival this year and I'm flying into Denver first before road tripping over to it.
I'm there for 4/5 days with car/bicycle access: what should I go see and do? Touristy stuff is good with me but there's a lot to do there and I doubt I'll ever be able to afford to come back again, so what would be vital must-see things?
❤️ Thanks all ❤️

On my first listen through of this and it's alright. Nothing standing out, but it's pleasant enough. Might grow on me with more listens.

Sigh. Still haven’t received my Oxenfree order from them that I ordered 2 years ago. That’s gonna be my permanent record.
Actually the worst company. I remember the Hyper Light Drifter og box taking nearly a year and everyone up in arms about that. All like "we were detailing the jacket" which was a bit shit in the end, let's face it, a box shouldn't feel that fragile after a year of waiting for it.

Saw them in London yeeeeaarrss ago and their amp set on fire just as they got into the last song (I think it was "… We Were Alone"). Still managed to play the final song out though! Probably peak time to see them, playing a nice set of their core, classic material. Not sure how much I'd engage seeing them now as a lot of their stuff sounds a bit too "jammy". Still enjoy listening to whatever they put out, but holding out for the full album. Haven't snagged a record of theirs since All Of A Sudden…

Sorry, you just met a chav on the internet. Not all Brits are like that, it's just when you've had a potent kebab after a night out on the cheapest 'spoons lagers, you get a rage the next day that doesn't end when you've done a big poo. You usually see these guys walking around town centres with their shirt off, stained joggers, market quality Nikes sneakers (swoosh peeling off), arms hovering to the sides from invisible lats syndrome, the cheapest deodorant whole can sprayed all over which you can smell down wind a mile away, cheapest silver chains clanging about like loose change. And that 1000 yard stare; You must not give them eye contact until they've made it to Greg's for a steak bake or McDonalds, otherwise you have to endure about 5 minutes of them yelling "what u looking at mate? You gay or something? COME ON THEN U WANT SOME". Masking their sexuality with a bit of fighting talk, but they'd probably fit in nicely at a sportswear fetish night in Vauxhall arches.
Anyway, hope you enjoyed it, good fun that!

I already ordered a copy of this new LP but I’m still kind of new to the band. Having only heard Dead Kids and Canary Yellow, which polished-sounding record would you recommend checking out next?
Choke is what got me into the band, but I still think Savior is their best album. It was a good mix of their earlier jangly/punchy post-punk stuff now throwing in the odd keys and synth in here and there to bring it up some more.
Also with @hallowken78in that i couldn't get into Canary Yellow. It's fine, I've listened through it multiple times hoping I would eventually connect with it, but it just feels a bit backgroundy and watered down in comparison to their earlier stuff. Hoping this new record gets me back on track, but a year/two year gap between albums always has me worried that they haven't had enough time out to brew and stew ideas. I do like it when a band goes away for a while and you're like "when are these fuckers getting back together to make an album especially FOR ME"! That hype.

Sort of pop, didn't want to start a new thread for this, but classic Friendly Fires self-titled reissued (with extortionate 12"), out sometime in september.

I didn't get this, but was thinking the other day spinning the og, it would've been neat to die-cut the cover so the sleeve inside was the cloudy picture within.

You obviously don't appreciate other collectors' records, right?
There's a thread for posting collections, people do appreciate them, but this is just self-serving pretentiousness and not many people here are into the dank musty crap anyone can acquire from a dad's clear out of the bargain bin.

I think the last release (the mixtape) was them finding their feet with more electronic sounds to work well, but it came across massively padded and lacking any real depth, should've just ducked out all the useless fiddling about/noise and made a solid EP instead. Sounds like they've got it dialed though, hope they can bring back the RtR vibes but pushing their sound forward. I like the single, but not an instant PO for me, but will see how everything works together as a whole.

I really hope you have an alphabeticalised nonce section.
