Man, I've tested out nearly ten albums at this point and nothing's really sticking.

Welp, back to Trash Boat's Crown Shyness for me.

 

For me today I have:

Alice in Chains
Secret Space
The Frights
The Lemon Twigs
Josh King
Nothing
3EB EP

 

If anybody is interested in alternative R&B (I personally love that it's called PBR&B haha), the Cautious Clay EP is incredible. RIYL Frank Ocean, SZA, Kehlani, Gallant. If you only have time for one song, check out French Riviera. I can't imagine anyone not enjoying this

 

Third Eye Blind are still a thing? lol

 

Nice try Third Eye Blind superfan

 

Busy day today after a slower one last week, I'm most excited for:
Interpol
Nothing
Alice In Chains
3EB
Mark Lanegan

I'll also check out:
Jesus Piece
Actor Observer
The Lemon Twigs
Murder By Death
Ogikubo Station
White Denim
The Amity Affliction (Though the pre-release singles I've heard have been meh so we'll see. I havent loved anything from them since Chasing Ghosts)

 

Also Mimicking Birds released two new songs/bsides from Layers of us today.

 

I'll probably pick up the new Alice in chains later today! Excited for it

 

Thanks for mentioning Secret Space. Didn’t realize they had a new album out!

 

No love for Bas around here?

 

It's pretty good I just played it. Very short though. 7 songs, 30 minutes only.

 

Glorietta (Noah Gundersen, David Ramirez, Kelsey Wilson) is out today. The singles didn’t catch me but I really like the record as a whole. Reminds me of Conor Oberst and the MVB.

 

This is great, forgot this came out!

 

Hey thanks for the tip. This sounds great just three songs in. Reminds me of Monsters of Folk.

Edit: Had to include this blurb because it's awesome.

The brainchild of Matthew Logan Vasquez (Delta Spirit), Glorietta was born out of a desire to collaborate with friends that Vasquez has collected over the last ten years. Those friends; Noah Gundersen, Kelsey Wilson (Wild Child), David Ramirez, Adrian Quesada (Brownout, Black Pumas), and Jason Blum came together over the course of nine-day recording session in a rented house in Glorieta, NM – just outside of Santa Fe. “We chose Santa Fe because it was isolated enough to where it would feel like we were at camp” said Vasquez, “the only requirements were that the house had vaulted ceilings and a Jacuzzi.” The players were all connected in one-way or another, some of them old friends, some of them meeting for the first time when they arrived. The days were long with the tape running constantly as the players brought ideas for songs in various stages of completion to their new family of collaborators. Mid way through the sessions the group was joined by a guest appearance from Nathaniel Rateliff who drove straight through the night to join the party. The result is a their self-titled debut record; a beautiful mix of voices from six band leaders that fit perfectly together like a low-fidelity puzzle. Their self-titled album will be available everywhere in the summer of 2018.

 

There have been so many 7 song albums lately. I saw on Secret Space’s social that they called it a full length. But yeah it seems short. Excited to listen to it later!

 

Definitely borderline to call it a full lenght imo but ya they are considering it their second full lenght

 

Did you check out Belmont last week?

 

Love Matthew Logan Vasquez solo stuff I'm gonna have to check this out.

 

new Blood Orange is sounding real good

 

I've been watching and enjoying their music videos this past week that I've seen pop up on YouTube, but no!, I didn't know the album was out.

 

Nothing and Actor Observer for me.

 

How's the Actor Observer record?

 

The best ones for me were Actor|Observer and new Ólafur, though I also spinned Nothing a few times, and just today Interpol.

 

Lots of Underoath vibes and tight production, loud and crushing, liked it! ;D
