FloorFiller Posted March 4, 2021 Report Share Posted March 4, 2021 (edited) Big Bowie - Fame vibes from that new St Vincent. Honestly, I kinda feel like that song and it’s style have been aped to death, so I’m not massive on this, but it’s still pretty good I guess, and I look forward to hearing where else she goes with this style.

Dont forget to buy the album on 8 track tape. Sharon Van Etton reissuing Epic for 10 year anny and has a whole covers version to go with it. Fiona Apple, Idles, Big Red Machine among the artists who made covers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a bit crap. Kinda reminds me of that shit first single from Justin Timberlake’s last shit album in how much it misses the mark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex DeLarge Posted March 4, 2021 Report Share Posted March 4, 2021 Re-listened to her self titled and a few other songs of hers again today and bloody hell, put into perspective what a step down the new single/ Masseduction was. Maybe I'm just annoyed still because of that Sleater-Kinney album tho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
priest17 Posted March 4, 2021 Report Share Posted March 4, 2021 Masseduction insults belong in the controversial thread that album is top. I can't defend that latest SK album though fair enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I'm just annoyed still because of that Sleater-Kinney album tho. That Sleater-Kinney album. OOF. The thing is, if it was a bit pacier, you can half-imagine it as a Strange Mercy/self-titled kinda song but the production absolutely blows. Odd because Antonoff is busy producing gems for Lana Del Rey and Taylor Swift but makes weird choices with Annie. Masseduction did win me over in the end but this song will not. edit: not saying that all the credit/blame for albums can be attributed to Jack Antonoff. I just choose to believe he is at fault over St. Vincent. Edited March 4, 2021 by dentalplan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charlierc Posted March 4, 2021 Report Share Posted March 4, 2021 Kings of Leon are releasing their album available as an NFT, or non-fungible token, which is a blockchain system like a cryptocurrency that is able to carry music and other art. Another act has also done a surprise release of their album with this format, while Banksy has apparently done this with some art as well. Does this sound like something that might become a regular thing for music releases or will it just be a flash in the pan? Feels like it might be the latter imo, but be interesting to see if it takes off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(though as I understand it, a lot of people were buying copies as it was either the first or one of the first nft albums so might become a bit of a collectible, but still) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suprefan Posted March 4, 2021 Report Share Posted March 4, 2021 Yeah, its funny bow KOL are trying to get the hype of first nft released when at least one artist beat em to the punch and can prove it. but if you want to spend a lot on a box set, here ya go.
