faaip de oiad 471 Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 (edited) Just need to post this somewhere. I'm in the middle of a move and have not had my setup in almost 2 months now and am getting really antsy not being able to play my records, lol. And it looks like another month before I get my new record room set up. I've got quite a bit of new records that have accumulated over the past 2 months. I've got an opportunity to create an epic record room(some ideas would be awesome!) Anyways, done for now...🧨  edit* Just realized that i posted in a post HC thread🤯 Edited December 2, 2020 by faaip de oiad dumbass Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That would be a hell of a meet-up, just wish it weren't in a court room! Derek™ 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

whoa 180 Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 (edited) One for here: https://blackcountrynewroad.bandcamp.com/album/for-the-first-time First heard this loud bunch a while back, they were apart of a 7" series where they record direct to tape, release on 7" only. It was solid, I didn't mind the intense spoken word passages and it just vibed with the gloomy post-rock behind it. Kind of thought that'd be the last I'd hear from them, BUT yay there's an LP out. Can't wait to lockdown with this. Sort of Enablers sound if you're into that (not so much cinematic cheese) Edited January 6 by whoa Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Well, you got me there. Part of my excitement was that, with few exceptions, the LYSF style has been only imitated, never replicated. And here the intention fairly clearly was to try and replicate it. I like the Silhouettes album a lot but by no means do I think it's actually in the same league as Godspeed.

dawhizz 475 Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 This is the type of post-rock I really respond to.  Kind of Rachel’s meets Broken Social Scene meets, I don’t know, Typhoon maybe?  https://thelastdinosaur.bandcamp.com/album/wholeness whoa 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gumbo72203 208 Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 you guys dig into the new Baulta yet? Big time!   Quote Link to post Share on other sites
drds89 757 Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 New Mogwai (loving it) and Godspeed for 2021 - whoa! GIAA has been a pleasant surprise:  a good portion sounds like Russian Circles "light." Their tour in EU playing All Is Violent + new material for 2021 has been pushed to 2022 (no surprise). Will travel if they come to the US and things are safer out there. For any nostalgics, I completely missed April 2020 release - first time on vinyl: All The Bright Lights S/T. Pricey, but this is a special album for me. (FFO light, atmospheric post rock with memorable riffs, and don't mind some buried vocals. Not an EITS copycat) All The Bright Lights   wisdom81 and Gumbo72203 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gumbo72203 208 Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 I am forever grateful to whomever it was that posted 2 years ago about the reissue of Tarentel's "From Bone to Satellite" Spinning this now....  every time I'm absolutely floored by how good this is. Top 5 post-rock album ever? Maybe. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Not a new release but I finally got around to picking up Signal Hill's "More After We're Gone" 10 year anniversary RM last bandcamp Friday, and it sounds so good on vinyl. Lighter side, but engaging Postrock FFO: The Mercury Program, Beware of Safety "Leaves & Scars" era Signal Hill: More After We're Gone 2xLP Always dreamed about those 3 playing a show together - just getting TMP from Florida to LA or vice versa made it a pipe dream of course, but hey. I did get to see TMP a couple years ago, which was amazing, and such great guys. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

New Baulta is fucking amazing. I just got mine yesterday, haven't spun yet but played the CD in my car today. Love it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gumbo72203 208 Posted Sunday at 09:53 PM Share Posted Sunday at 09:53 PM NEW SHY, LOW and YEAR OF NO LIGHT!!!! FUCK YES!!!! Both of these tracks are so satisfying. I'm really stoked to see where the Shy, Low album goes. Much heavier and darker but retaining the pretty melodies they're so good at. And YONL is just.... YONL being awesome at being YONL. Sadly i can't link any of the tracks individually but you can view them here until like tomorrow or something. YONL and Shy, Low are both on Friday, you just click on that day on the left and then scroll til you find them. https://www.roadburnredux.com/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
