Where to next in their fucking intimidating-looking discog after this because holy shit I LOVE this?!?
This feels most similar to Paper Mache Denim Balloon to me. Lyrically, it’s closest to Butterfly 3000.
worth checking out their previous album Flight b187 too, I believe these are outtakes from that album that they added orchestral overdubs to afterwards
Welcome. Polygondwanaland is my favorite, truly a perfect album imo. Flight b741 would probably be a good one to try next though if you like this, haven’t listened to the new album in full yet but the singles sound pretty similar to that one.
Aerodynamic is maybe the best song I’ve ever heard. this album just gets better and better with every listen. @Carrow Omnium Gatherum is great to have a little taste of everything they can do. But nearly every album is great. For more like this sound in particular Paper Mache Dream Balloon and Changes would probably make you happy.
So that's six different albums mentioned, thanks everyone - I'll start with Flight b741 and go from there!
tbh I would rec the live bootleg gizzard tapes...Lisbon and Barcelona were both great. But you can't go wrong
Yeah, I've never spent much time with this band outside of their couple releases that lean more "metal", but I'm digging this.
latest one is fun, very sweet and calming vibes, not exceptional among the discog to me so far though. seem like they will be good cool down tunes live
As much as I liked my initial few listens, I'm putting it on the back burner in favor of the EU bootlegs. It doesn't help that FedEx has seemingly decided not to ship my record from the hub but I'll return to the album ahead of the US tour. Barcelona N3 is still the highlight for me as far as EU shows go, the run from The Reticent Raconteur through Daily Blues has me in a chokehold. The table versions of Sense from Bulgaria N2 and Kepler 22-B from Athens N2 have also been on repeat.
