anyone listen to this yet?
it's like song-writery pop that's schooled on U.S. Maple and Royal Trux. which can be expected from a member of Magik Markers. pretty interesting and charming record

i meant to go to her solo show in easthampton but i forgot abt it

Yeah, this is a really good record, feels like a natural progression from the last Magik Markers record.

Love it. Elisa's the best. Wish this record was getting the attention it deserves.

yea this kicks ass

it's definitely gonna get overlooked since it just came out of nowhere, but this record is just great on all fronts. fucking love the atmosphere. just gonna take drugs and put "Comers" on repeat

I love her song "Torn"
― hunangarage, Sunday, 16 November 2014 07:23 (nine years ago) link

This record strikes a sentimental chord within me.I really like it.

It is really really good.

Also, anyone know how to get a mod to change the thread title? Would be nice if the title of the album was corrected.
― grandavis, Monday, 17 November 2014 17:02 (nine years ago) link
on it
― sleeve, Monday, 17 November 2014 17:09 (nine years ago) link
Nice.
― grandavis, Monday, 17 November 2014 17:24 (nine years ago) link
Should have said: thanks Sleeve!
Also, one of the joys of Elisa putting anything out is that people interview her. She gives a good answer to any question you throw her way, one of the most interesting and deep (without being lame about it) musicians around. Funny as hell too:

Renamed. I will give the album a listen as my reward for completing this most minor of all tasks.
― Matt DC, Monday, 17 November 2014 17:38 (nine years ago) link
Yeah Tyler, that one is pretty great.
― grandavis, Monday, 17 November 2014 17:42 (nine years ago) link
oh hey look what showed up in my review pile
very pretty so far, 3 tracks in, memorable melodic hooks and a nice sound overall
― sleeve, Tuesday, 18 November 2014 19:53 (nine years ago) link
'The Immortalist' is a pretty good title too though.
― festival culture (Jordan), Tuesday, 18 November 2014 20:10 (nine years ago) link
i think i've called it "The Immortalist" like 5 times in conversation already. d'oh
― hackshaw, Tuesday, 18 November 2014 21:20 (nine years ago) link
Alright, as a case-in-point this needs to be catalogued here. She just needs to be interviewed constantly, my life would be improved:

this is gonna make me nostalgic for the 00s

"Superstitious" is one my favourite songs of the year. Was just looking at the video and noticed a photo of the MC5 in amongst her bric-à-brac.
― clemenza, Saturday, 27 December 2014 17:54 (nine years ago) link
