Dowsing - Untitled (Asian Man Records; April 29th, 2016) Album

oh yeahhhh

 

Song is awesome.

Also, I'm pretty sure the album is called Okay

 

It's not, pretty sure, if I get clarification I can change it

 

Digging that song. Not too different from the rest of their work, but I don't have a problem with that.

 

Oh whoops, you're right. Mis-read the fine print on stereogum, it is in fact untitled but sometimes called Okay (for whatever reason)

 

can't believe the album is actually called untitled lol

good song, looking forward to this

 

song is awesome, excited for this

 

Jam

 

Preordered. I love this band a whole lot.

 

I don't like this as much as I wished I did (as much as I liked IDECA). But the opener and closer are both great for sre

 

That's a bummer. How do you like the songs released so far in relation to the rest of the album?

 

They're both on the lower half of the album IMO. I think the second half is much better than the first and it's on the whole better than my post made it sound like, haha

 

really enjoyed this on first listen, have a feeling it's gonna be super addictive

 

Yeah I'm almost done with my first listen, not as good as the last but I love that one

Didn't leak by the way, don't ask, haha

 

I think the thing I didn't like as much about this is the tougher vocals

 

This is going to be a fun listen over the next few days.

 

Record is good. I liked it a bunch when I got a preview.

 

Excited for this.

 

Erik's voice has gotten a lot gruffer on this one. I like the first two tracks but it was great to hear the boppier side of them again on Kept Me Around.

 

I recently realized how much I like I Don't Even Care Anymore. Stuck with me a ton.

This is still solid but think I'll likely love that one the most forever

 

Yup. That album is amazing to me. Probably top 10, maybe 5, from the scene. Can't even begin to explain what songs like Get Weird and Meant To Shred mean to me. I think the only thing they've done better than that album is World's Finest Chocolate.

 

Hyped for this but also a bit apprehensive now as people have said there's a bit of a change in their sound...

 

not so much a change in sound as much as it just a bit rougher around the edges

 

Well that's not so bad, then. The songs released so far have a bit of a Piebald/early-Hot Rod Circuit vibe, so hopefully they're representative of the rest of the album.
