Weyes Blood - Titanic Rising (April 5, 2019) Album • Page 2

Weyes Blood is like the opposite of Chorus fodder, especially on a day where Pup released a new album lol

I picked up the record (first one I've bought in like a year) and going to give it a first spin tonight or tomorrow when I set my player up. Can't wait.

 

Really want to check out the new PUP album based on the attention it's getting around the web but I generally hate pop-punk so I don't want to spoil anyone's fun

 

Wow that's quite the back to back. "Crushing" is still probably my AOTY. This is seems like it won't be too far behind with more listens.

Happy early beeday!!

 

Incredible album. I wish I was writing an album review but I just have too much on my plate

@Drew Beringer have you listened to this? You’d probably love it

 

This is some big praise in this thread. I’ll check it out.

 

I am going to grab a bottle of red and give this my full attention tonight

 

yes listen!!!

 

yeah I love this!

 

Really into this. The opening track in particular is incredible.

 

"Movies" is fucking absolutely unbelievable, I wish I liked the rest even close to as much

 

I haven’t seen the movie in forever and a half but for some reason Picture Me Better reminds me of the song at the end of The Land Before Time and that is absolutely a good thing

 

The opening of "Everyday" tricks me into thinking I'm listening to the RENT soundtrack every single time.

 

Also, this AND Julia Jacklin both sold out here before I could afford to grab a ticket. Guess I'll be watching Stubhub/Facebook for the next six weeks.

 

the chord progressions on this fucking rule. real unexpected harmonic turns

 

This album is so damn good

 

this is legit outstanding, sounds timeless

 

I hear a lot of Joni Mitchell

 

I’m finding this just on repeat tbh.

Also, parts of Andromeda remind me of Selena??

 

Movies reminds me of Take a bow by Muse a little bit haha I still need to listen to this in full. Have only heard Movies so far.

Sidenote: Digging the avatar @zmtr. Great record.

 

Please don’t compare Weyes Blood to Muse thank you

 

Almost as bad as the Falling Up comparisons in the OWEL thread. *shudder*

 

The synths are muse like so it's not a bad comparison also black holes and revelations ain't a bad record so I stand by what I said

 

timeless is definitely the best word to describe this

 

But he isn’t wrong...

 

Yea. I love Pearl Jam but it’s not lost on me how many bad bands they spawned (like every single cock rock band). Influence is influence. Similarities are similarities.

I had a friend that would deny any band she like sounded like any band she didn’t like because....I don’t know? Was really weird.

Also have a relative that refuses to call any music she likes “Country”. Calls Will Nelson (maybe one of the 5 most recognizable/important country artists ever), who she loves, “folk” because identity politics. She doesn’t ant to be associated with liking country music. It’s mind numbing. I mean country is a descendant of folk, and genre semantics can be boring, but when someone draws such a hard line I can’t help but get annoyed.
