    whoa reacted to Gumbo72203 in PO: Holy Fawn - Dimensional Bleed (9/9/2022)   
    Are you not aware they have an album prior to that?  It's called Realms.  It's a bit more ethereal and lacking more of the heavy elements that are found on Death Spells and Dimensional Bleed.  Make sure you check it out!  Foal has one of the catchiest guitar hooks ever. 
     
    I mean, like others have said - there's 3 full-lengths and an EP, so it's not a lot. 

    Realms - more post-rock/indie-ambient-gaze style, lacking a lot of the the heavier elements found later but absolutely fucking amazing.  "Foal" is my favorite song.
    Death Spells - classic album, heavy, moody, gazey....  10/10, just a titan.  "Yawning" is my favorite song.
    Dimensional Bleed - good album, a bit more moody, kind of like Deafheaven turning more shoegaze with Infinite Granite.  Still a great album, but nothing will ever top Death Spells IMO.  That was a hammer to the face of the scene when that dropped. 
    The Black Moon - short, but crushing.  Candy is a live set staple. 

    Just dive in dude, they're so good.  I've seen them...  6 times now, soon to be 7 with Post Fest in a few weeks.  They're so good, and so good live, and such nice dudes.  Ryan is a sweetheart.  He wrote a custom lyric sheet for me for my girlfriend, with the lyrics to "Take Me With You". 

    And those motherfuckers kept Yawning in the setlits!  Sneaky bastards!  I lost my shit in Boston and Austin just LOL'd onstage haha.  It was great.  Such good people.

    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!

    whoa got a reaction from prowl20 in PO now: Soft Kill - Canary Yellow   
    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.

    I mean, that's a valid question. 😂
    That sub and its rules can roll dice.  Always assumed its par for the course for any other sub on reddit: moderated by middle-aged men with little-to-no control in their lives offline, obsessed over splitting hairs over community rules.  A tale as old as time... or at least, the internet.
    But yeah, Randy – should've just waited for the album to go up on Wal-Mart's site, so you could spam affiliated links for it. 🥴 Lesson learned, I hope!

    Hey @TheGhostOfRandySavage I sent you a modmail a few minutes after the ban. You’ve broken multiple rules, continues to harass the mod team over and over again with false accusations. So, I banned you… 
     
    Here’s the modmail you were sent:

    “Deftones was already posted, and then reposted (I left the repost since it was the official store). The Amazon link was posted multiple times in both threads. We removed the third post for the same variant, because we don't want a new post for every store. This is typical for us to remove duplicate posts for the same variant.
    > Is it going to show up again soon with an affiliate link from one of you?
    Comments like this are unnecessary. I've addressed you multiple times about the mods in the past. You've now been permanently banned. If you don't like the sub, please go somewhere else.”

    The annoying part there is that for huge bands like Deftones, there is even less impact of "voting with your dollar" than, say, an overpriced record on Deathwish or Hello Merch.  Artists like Deftones know how wide their reach is, and that it stretches beyond market-savvy vinyl enthusiasts.  There are plenty of people out there who do not buy vinyl often, so they have no problem shelling out $30, $40, even $50 for a single LP because it's officially licensed on a fancy color.  (Or sometimes not.  Nine Inch Nails' pricing is pretty rough too, for just black vinyl reissues.)
    With any overpriced record, for every 1 reasonable person "voting with their wallet", there's 10 who have no problem taking their spot.  And I feel like that ratio is even steeper with artists like Deftones.  I'm happy to still have that Hot Topic variant for this one, so I'm not losing sleep over trying to cop another one.  Someone tag me when they make a 45 RPM double LP that's ruby red translucent and coke bottle blue for $30.

    Labels/bands take note, this is how you do an anniversary repress. No lame alternate cover, no 3LPs filled with demos and acoustic tracks. Just the album for those who doesn't have it. So easy.
