I haven’t had an album etch itself in my brain in a while quite like the new Grivo. Wasn’t sure about it relative to Elude at first but I’ve literally listened to it at minimum once a day since release. They craft such an incredible vibe with their music. Impossible to get sick of.
100 emoji. They are the real deal live as well.
It looks like on IG post, the brothers are still there (guitar/vocalist and drummer) but bassist has changed. And he was the real friendly one at the show to talk with. Same show with Twin Drugs and Slow Crush right before COVID. I know I have to keep rubbing that in haha. 50 people crammed in like sardines at this kitsch horror dive in RVA. Slow Crush are coming back in April and locals Shy, Low will be playing as well! hoping Twin Drugs can get on and play some of their new material (I have not heard any of it yet).

doesn't always have to be groundbreaking to be good my friend! Sometimes the old family recipe, done right with quality ingredients, yields the most satisfying results
I'm also not familiar with Tennis System. Where start?
I like the old stuff, start from the beginning and take your time.

Hospital Ships– The Past Is Not a Flood

Stargazer Lilies is some really nice psychegaze

Right on, I haven't gotten there yet actually haha. We made it through about track 5 or 6 on the way to and from our gig last night. What I love is how every song goes right into the next one. It's like jamband music! XD XD
Any thought as to which variant sounds the best? They have the cream and black/clear on Bandcamp.The only variant I have listened to is Cream, no problems

Repress is coming! They always do a limited first press now it seems. They try to do it to hit all time zones as best as possible, but yeah someone always loses.
Also, I am *SO* glad I said "fuck it, it's $5" and added Constants - The Foundation, The Machine, The Ascension to a recent Discogs order. I listened to a few seconds and knew my girlfriend liked the singer as she likes SOM, but mannnnn this album fucking SLAYS. It's so good! I had Pasiflora and felt lukewarm about it, i didn't like the production, and this album has a bit lower quality but in a nice way that compliments the music.
If you guys don't know this, get on it now!https://constantstheband.bandcamp.com/album/the-foundation-the-machine-the-ascension
Constants hardly ever get talked about. At one time during the Sheath pinnacle, I had all 3 pressings of this album, now just the /300 Cream. Will Benoit is one seriously talented individual, multi-instrumentalist and Radar Recording Studio owner. Got to meet him when he was playing bass for Rosetta on the Utopioid tour.
Will's vocals (to my ears) sound like 3 different singers for the first 3 albums, and maybe a 4th on Pasiflora. I must confess in a pinch, I will listen to the 3rd record, The Ascension, when I don't have time for the whole album. Probably 6 or 7 times I've done that. Parts 1 and 2 are excellent , but Abraxis I through ...Passage would be my recommendation if you want to check them out but don't have time for a triple LP. Passage may be my favorite track, perfectly placed on the journey.
And yes, I would buy Nostalgia on vinyl in a heartbeat!

While we're on the topic of Nadja tapes, there's a live tape with Thaumogenesis b/w The Bungled and the Botched. Each cover is hand painted.
Ooh, completely missed that. 2 awesome tracks, another no brainer for the growing tape collection!

The Vampillia collabs are some of my favorite Nadja related releases, couldn't resist the tape set. Thanks for the post Don! 100% would've missed this. I'd also somehow missed Artificial Act of God, so that's a double plus for me!
Hope you're doing well, Jon and have great holiday season!

All 3 Nadja/Vampillia collaborations are going to be released on cassette in a box set - $35 + $9 shipping limited to 100. AB said a few would be on their site but recommended ordering from badmoonrising at Bandcamp
On mobile today - hope this link works. Imperfection and Perfect World are always in rotation.

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
Yes, let Blankenberge keep on doing their thing! (vs PSUB which kinda lost me when they moved to LA)
New Fleeting Joys album for PO. Don't know how many they pressed?
I wish they would press Occult Radiance.
You can still get Despondent Transponder RP as well -- I can't believe those are still around. And the discogs prices for Speeding Away... oy.

Fire > Malacoda is about the best opening I think that band could ever do.
They can do no wrong with opener selection, but during the tour with Junius in 2013, when they opened with Of Foam And Wave in Chapel Hill NC, I was literally brought to tears. Have had & still have plenty of goosebump /ASMR reactions to music, some tracks every time, but tears... a rare occurrence.

No vinyl anytime soon, as expected, but new Blankenberge is being released on 11/14. Awesome news. All non-vinyl formats go up for PO on 11/5, through their bandcamp.
I know there's a few cassette collectors here, 1 more left on their bandcamp page: Orange (Green sold out).
-
Not sure if they belong here or over in the shoegaze thread, cecilia::eyes has a new album coming out via Dunk, first single is on bandcamp and youtube. I would call it dreamgaze, but light, ethereal postrock with buried vocals would work, too.

New You'll Never Get to Heaven
https://youllnevergettoheaven.bandcamp.com/album/wave-your-moonlight-hat-for-the-snowfall-train
It's getting to be that season... love them. Perfect for cassettes too.

Late to the party but never too late I guess (except for vinyl under $50 ppd to US). Athens, Greece.
Post rock with some psych, some grit, some soft, some prog, something for everyone.
Their Methlab: The Last Second
Their S/T from 2013 is a kicker, too. Really not smitten with the recent pandemic EP tracks tho, may be need a few more listens, but some will like the BM vocals.
-
Assuming the usual: /150 Limited (Clear) /350 Black
Price is 18 euro and great shipping price to USA
-
Still have cassette on my Wantlist, but went ahead and got a Purple & Blue Swirl. Significant Hum homage as the record develops.
Seems like a theme this week with bands here and on the gaze thread (Hum). No complaints.

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.

Do you like Elude at all? Not all gloomgaze clicks with me, but for whatever reason, those Muses never tire of that one on my TT.
