Really good live if they ever come your way

I’ve heard a few people complain about the strings. I don’t get it at all. It works so well here imo. The mix of epic heavy guitars/electronics is balanced out perfectly with the strings. I dunno this is just one of those albums that clicked immediately for me & keeps getting better the more I listen.

This album has blown me away early on. I love the return to form, but amped up.

That new Maybeshewill kicks all kinds of ass. Exceeded all expectations.

I thought the same and then Chihiro dunked all over it

EPs have been far superior to LPs this year Psychonaut/Saver split Gates A Place to Bury Strangers Pet Fox Social Contract Heaven’s Cloak Pictures of Wildlife Trauma Ray all fantastic

Got my tape in today. Shocker: it rules. Cheer Up, Chihiro! is top tier

How good is that new Blankenberge?? Sheesh. I know there isn’t much variety in their sound but Everything feels like they’ve perfected what they do. Also, Cecilia::Eyes was previously considered mostly post-rock with some shoegaze tendencies but these new songs are 100% dreamy shoegaze deliciousness. Especially the newest one out today, “Parentheses”. https://ceciliaeyes.bandcamp.com/album/sore-memories-always-end

So stoked for this. Was worried about them adding vocals but it works very well here. That first song builds & builds & finishes great.

Matt Nasir. He’s in the full band with Frank.

fuuuuuuuuuuuck

Saw him open for Frank Turner recently. Great show!

I haven’t obsessed over a song like I have with Gotterdammerung in a long while. Might already be my 2022 aoty.

Everyone here should know this band. So good.

Really dig the new song. Sounds like a return to form & thankfully ignores the Fair Youth sound which was a giant letdown for this band.

cursetheknife going on tour with Honeymoon. And if Honeymoon wasn’t mentioned in here, then definitely check them out. Never heard of them before this tour announcement and if you like Narrow Head then you will like Honeymoon. https://www.instagram.com/p/CUpkFKvAl1o/?utm_medium=copy_link

This band rules. Became hip to them this year. Stoked they’re coming to town next month.

I need to visit here more often LOL. A: I consider myself a Tennis System junkie & legit had no clue the album was available anywhere to listen to yet. I messaged the TS IG account a while back & Matty just said “hiccups due to covid, physical release only (no stream seevices) & that vinyl should ship October. Didn’t buy thru BC so I never got access to listen. Can’t believe I could have been listening the past month & a half haha. May as well just wait for the vinyl at this point. B: That Warm EP is near the top for most disappointing release this year. They completely stripped away the big, dark, slow, sinister sound I loved & made it almost sound like poppy shoegaze. I also miss the dual vocals. I wish they just rebranded under a different band name. I had been dying for a full album that sounded like their last solo EP & the 2 split songs. This is a total left turn from that sadly. C : I love love love that cursetheknife album. It’s so damn good. “In Dreams” is an amazing song. D : Stoked on that Mondaze album. Really liked their 3-song EP.

This may be my number 2 behind Artist frfr. It’s the most I’ve enjoyed an album as a whole from them since then. I agree a bit with Derek that some of the choruses sound a bit flaccid, but the peaks of the album carry so much weight that I can get past it.

I love this band so goddamn much. So stoked for this.

Gumbo, Cardinal Winds sounds like Babel, sounds like The Ascentionist…they just rewrite the same songs over & over & never add anything new. Generic melodies, drums, builds/peaks, etc. I give everyone of their releases a fair shot. They are an aesthetically pleasing band & nothing more lol. Sorry for being so harsh!

Hahaha yeah easy pass on the pg.lost but sign me up for PSOTY & Meniscus! I’ve always liked Tool, & have dabbled in Isis & liked what I’ve heard but I just don’t have a good reason for not revisiting them more often. And I actually loved Tacoma’s last album. It definitely fit right in with those bands. I feel like the newest stripped away everything I loved about that album. No atmosphere. Nothing to wrap you up in the album. It just came & went and felt uninspired.

Yeah I’m surprised at the love Tacoma is getting. I’ll have to at least give it one more chance. The Driving Slow Motion coulda been my post-rock aoty if not so painfully short. One of the guys in the band told me it was supposed to be a longer double EP but lame ass Post Recordings made them trim it down into 1 LP. No way in hell a big epic heavy ambient album like that can only be 30 min. The last 2 songs end before they even begin imo. But “Leaves” & “The Fall” are incredible.
