Chorus.fm Record of the Week Club • Page 24

One listen and this album has been my favourite discovery from this thread. Fantastic sprawling record. Literally no idea outstays its welcome.

Feels redundant to assign it to one particular genre but it seems to me to be everything that post-rock can be and almost never is. Incredible colour and fluidity on what was clearly a limiting budget. Couldn't care less what any of the lyrics actually mean.

 

Gonna throw this on today!

 

This is such a cool mix of styles and ideas. I definitely need to dig into it over multiple listens.

 

Their first album is really great too and worth checking out. Their live videos are fun to look up too, most are of incomprehensible quality but they almost never use microphones

 

think Mick might be the only one who has heard my pick for tomorrow

excited

 

my selection for this week is The Armed - Perfect Saviors. this album came out last year and has been a staple of mine ever since. not sure if I have ever witnessed a band change genres so effortlessly before either. this album means a whole lot to me and I only hope to make at least one more fan in sharing it with this group. hope you all enjoy

 

I listened to it once when it came out but haven't gone back since. I enjoyed it so I'm down to give it another listen for the club!

 

Ah looking forward to this. I've only heard one of their albums.

 

I've never been able to get in to this band, but lets give it another shot.

 

Great album, probably their most accessible sound quality wise. Still has a lot of that chaotic noise but a little more subdued.

 

“Modern Vanity” might be my favorite song of theirs

 

This sounds really fun, I'd like to participate. I am going to throw this record on now

 

I dug this album a lot more the second time around. Modern Vanity to Burned Mind is my favorite stretch of tracks on it. Also reminds me that I still need to listen to their first three albums. Ultrapop is probably still my favorite so far

 

glad you enjoyed

 

My discovery of them was through a Pitchfork Festival live stream a couple years ago. Some of them had juggalo face paint on lol

 

“Everything’s Glitter” still blows me away

what a song but then again you could say that about most any of them

 

If I had to pick a favorite it would be that one

 

Have only heard Ultrapop but I dig it, looking forward to listening tomorrow

adding @Doomsday to the list

 

I will post some more thoughts about this tomorrow because my phone broke and I can't use my PC much tn but wow, I loved that record. Extremely my shit. Beautiful and chaotic in all the right ways. Favorite track was probably Patient Mind. Consider me a fan of these folks

 

my work here is done

 

you could say pretty much any song on this album (except maybe Liar 2 - which is still great for what it is) is your favorite and I’d understand

 

Nope

 

this one didn’t do it for you either?

 

Really enjoyed this one, especially the jazzier elements on the closing track. I’ve heard a bit of their stuff before, but I remember it being heavier? I guess they’re just a really versatile band.

 

yeah who knows what their next album will sound like
