I didn't think I liked the Dirty Projectors but Bitte Orca was a pretty good "dude-I-can't-believe-you-haven't-heard-this-album-yet!-let's-listen-to-it-while-we-pack-the-next-bowl" surprise
kinda makes me think of a chilled-out summer version of OOIOO (bro-OIOO???)

back on the topic of indie rock: I swear to god there used to be a beer commercial that used that rockin' bagpipe instrumental track from In the Aeroplane Over the Sea, but everyone looks at me like I'm crazy when I mention this

Is something supposed to be weird about that?

It shows how much more popular pitchfindie is than anything else on ILM?

Really surprised Grizzly Bear lost. Too "polite"?

(I think both records are excellent, by the way.)

you're right, but i thought he was commenting on the low vote total

Tim, is that news to anyone who's been around here a while?
― Rostam Batmang (The Reverend), Friday, 24 July 2009 04:46 (fourteen years ago) link
given that ppl around here generally only post about newish indie in order to hate on it, i thought it was a v. high total.

Didn't vote in this, and if I had it wouldve been another for DP, but I'm still surprised at the results. I kind of...tolerated, I guess, Rise Above, but Bitte Orca (awful title aside) is way the hell better, while Veckatimest sounds like a step back from the songwriting on Yellow House.
― Telephone thing, Saturday, 25 July 2009 01:47 (fourteen years ago) link
I think the thing is that Bitte Orca's fans are a lot more passionate about the album than Veckitamest's fans.

lol more like relatively indifferent vs HATEHATEHATE
