Jeff Rosenstock - Worry (October 14, 2016) Album • Page 7

That making of doc was perfect.

 

Listening to this again today and goddamn I love Festival Song so much.

 

What, Jeff Rosenstock Worry? - Noisey
this piece is exceptional. about the show in mexico

 

This album is a phenomenal outlet discussing all of the societal issues this country is dealing with right now. Not over political or preachy in any way, either.

 

I don't think there's such a thing as over political, but I think this and the Kevin Devine albums are best albums with a degree of visibility tackling politics from the view of white people -- it's done carefully, firmly, but with accessibility. I snagged the setlist from the show last night (everyone was great btw)

You, In Weird Cities
Pash Rash
Wave Goodbye
Beers Again Alone
Festival Song
To Be A Ghost
Hey Allison
Polar Bears or Africa
Nausea
and then the last few songs from Worry, on the setlist it just says "The 5"

 

A boardie friend of mine went to see him on the 19th and recorded a v good quality bootleg of the show. All acoustic set, too.

really cool, thanks

 

God this rules

 

Seriously. It's such a cohesive piece of work. Staring Out the Window...is perfect. I'm so glad I've became a JR fan in the last year, and checked out all his music. Man is great.

 

This is really strong.

 

Counting down the days until this show next week. Feels like it's been a really long time since I've seen Jeff, but that's probably just because I saw him like 7 or 8 times last year.

 

i'm as excited to see jeff as i am to see katie ellen, i miss chumped so much

 

Katie Ellen were really good live, kind of miss some of Chumped's energy but it's not like it's nonexistent in their live show, just spaced out. They might have been the best of the openers, but that might not be fair to say because Cayetana's vocalist had her voice almost completely gone when I saw them

 

To Be A Ghost is doing wonders for me on a day like today. Really the whole album, but that song specifically digs deep into how I am feeling.

 

I feel you. Worry is the name of the game right now

 

It sucks how much parts of this album are even more relevant today

 

"The ones in power built a dream on guarantees of luxury and sold it like it’s magic to the poor. They trick you into thinking all it takes it just a little bit of effort once your foot is in the door. They brutalize your confidence and drain you of your energy until you’re always tired and unsure. They make a lot of promises but keep on taking everything so you always want more."

Like, god damn.

 

Here's a video of the band's cover of Police on my Back by The Clash, kicked off with I'm Giving up on U2. Loved how they closed with it the other night. If you can get to one of these shows you definitely should, it's a blast!

 

Amazing video

 

Yeah loved that. This may very well be my AOTY.

 

Mine too, it's definitely a toss up between this and Pinegrove.

 

looks like i may be in a new jeff video

 

I'm in the You In Weird Cities video. Serves as a great memory of that awesome day.

 

show was so good last night
though i got major blueballs when he went from bang on the door into rainbow but then stopped and didn't do planet luxury
