Just pressed play and already blown away by Adore the Sun. Never imagined this band had a song that sounded like this in them.
Laughing to myself at how much this is already their best album. And I LOVE cosmic thrill seekers. Every album has been such a gigantic step up from the last, the possibilities for this band are endless.
Never managed to get into Cosmic Thrill Seekers but this is one of the best first listens to an album I’ve had in ages, it’s all over the place but in a way that makes it flow so well, big AOTY contender for sure
From the album description/bio on the pure noise site: “Recorded, like Cosmic Thrill Seekers, by Nick “Scoops” Dardaris – this time at the Barber Shop Studios in New Jersey”
Apparently the whole thing was mostly tracked live as well. Which seems absurd. The guitar tones on this are top notch
I had trouble getting into the vocals on their previous work but this album is nice. Keep Up That Talk sounds like an Oliver Tree song...wonder if that was on purpose.
I had heard so many live/acoustic versions of Jesus Christ and One Piece but the finished versions are still so, so good. Definitely two of my favorites here. I’M REALLY TRYING TO AVOID YOUUUU
