Mattymooz Posted January 15, 2021 Report Share Posted January 15, 2021 Ok, if you want a laugh then go listen to the XCERTS cover of We Built This City. The whole EP they put out today is hysterically bad.... Beach Bunny was pretty damn good though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FloorFiller Posted January 15, 2021 Report Share Posted January 15, 2021 Pinegrove released a new live album/film today which is currently streaming on YouTube and is excellent. I know a lot of people got turned off them after all the hooplah a couple of years ago, but goddamn are they such a great live band. I wasn’t a huge fan of their new album but its all sounding amazing here and I’ll have to be going back to it soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SwedgeAntilles Posted January 15, 2021 Report Share Posted January 15, 2021 Have to say lads and lassies, that Shame album is a bit special. I was having a think back to the last album by a British act that I found as fresh and exciting. Best I could do was CHVRCHES debut (2013) and 'White Men Are Black Men Too' from Young Fathers (2015). Even after one listen I'd put it in that category. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guy Incognito Posted January 15, 2021 Report Share Posted January 15, 2021 First half of the Shame album is great but it drops off a fair bit in the second half. Reckon I like Human For A Minute a bit more on record than when the couple time I heard it live but still not sold on it. Don't think it's necessarily truly original (sounds a lot like Parquet Courts, Talking Heads and Crack Cloud) but it's definitely an improvement on the first album.

Is that coz Snow Day is so good everything after pales a bit? I'm half joking but I gotta say I really like that song Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FloorFiller Posted January 15, 2021 Report Share Posted January 15, 2021 On the contrary, I much prefer the Shame albums second half (well... from Water in the Well onwards). Big fan of the slower talk-sung Slint vibe they’ve got going for some of the latter songs rather than the Talking Heads vibe of the former.

Mouseboy11 Posted January 15, 2021 Report Share Posted January 15, 2021 I kind of zoned out halfway through the Shame album and it didn't really grab my attention, I think I'll give it another go considering everyone seems to be loving it.

The word legend : The Old French noun legende derives from the Medieval Latin legenda. The word legend is appropriate here, for once, and the guitars!

FloorFiller Posted January 16, 2021 Report Share Posted January 16, 2021 (edited) Apparently this album came out at the end of last year (sorry don’t send me to jail) so it might’ve already come up, but Skyway Man - The World Only Ends When You Die just recently popped up on Metacritic so I decided to give it a go and I think it’s ace and I’m some sure others on here would dig it.
