Mouseboy11 Posted July 24, 2020 Report Share Posted July 24, 2020 Listening to Crack Cloud's debut at the moment that dropped this week. Arty post-punk that's enjoyable so far, can see a few on here being fans. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, top stuff, well worth diving into the origins and ethos of the band as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dentalplan Posted July 24, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2020 Stunned by the Courtney Marie Andrews longplay. Really powerful stuff. Sounds like she’s been through some since the last record. Luke Jenner from the Rapture also released a solo album today and it is - no word of a lie - phenomenal.

Apparently the song is something she was playing live in 2018, so fingers crossed it’s not attached to that album as I have no real interest in that.

FuzzyDunlop Posted July 24, 2020 Report Share Posted July 24, 2020 (edited) Reading through, I cant see a review of the new Blinders album, Fantasies of a stay at home psychopath. I like it. A decent rock / indie album. Shit title though. Circle Song is my favourite. Wont change the world, but well worth a listen Oh... there is a stupid interlude in it which made me piss, which I dont think was the intention.

Don’t think I ever would’ve known this existed, let alone given it a listen, if it weren’t for your recommendation but decided to give it a whirl and I’m digging it a lot. All My Love especially was some hair raising euphoric stuff. Maybe could’ve done with a few more proper ‘songs’ with full vocals etc, but it’s a pretty great, strange little album and I can see myself going back to it quite a bit. Nice one! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is it about 'interludes', 'Untitled', and some other strange little things on albums, including titled silent tracks, which some artists insist on inserting into otherwise decent albums. 99% of them appear to be filler. Is it just me that they irritate? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's hardly a classic, but I enjoyed it enough on first listen. I was laughing during the interlude though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For starters, they have to be listened to for a full 30 seconds to count so that's why it's more about throwing in filler tracks like Drake rather than a track of 7 seconds of silence or tracks that are generally going to be skipped. Given that they have (like skits and spoken word passages) been used for decades by huge artists, it is - Vulfpeck's Sleepify aside - 100% artistic intention and if that's what they wanna put in then can't really blame them. I do skip The Doctor's Office when driving around town listening to The Chronic. Coward? I know. Edited July 25, 2020 by dentalplan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fred quimby Posted July 26, 2020 Report Share Posted July 26, 2020 (edited) So I have listened to Taylor Swifts Folklore over the weekend However the other album was Sault - Untitled(Black is) released in June. Nicely contrasting The Sault LP is brilliant and so amazingly of the time. Listening gives me real pause for thought and maybe (I hope so anyway) a small understanding of others, which is very powerful, music does this sometimes. Other times it makes me shake my freaky ass on the dance floor Edited July 26, 2020 by fred quimby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has a more Halfway Home/Strange Cacti feel to it. The new album sounds interesting. Mostly “skeletal” versions of the songs from All Mirrors. Can’t wait to hear the new version of Chance.
