never too early to anticipate a new Kurt Vile record - Wakin On A Pretty Daze? (2013)

were my ears deceiving me or was one tune a heavy "boys of summer" homage?

never thought of it that way but i totally get what you mean. i really like that one.

Shame chamber is great but I always expect J Mascis to start singing when it comes on

great album - after 'Halo', I thought this was the kind of artist from whom one album was enough but I've been proved wrong. Great sunny highway driving music too. Surprised no one has mentionned 'Stoned & Dethroned' as a reference.

crestfallen aaaaaaaaaaaannnnnnnnnnnnd

damn, this is good:

"Wakin on a Pretty Day" sound a lot like "Major Leagues"

I'd never previously listened to Kurt Vile, but Wakin' on a Pretty Daze is my favorite album of 2013 so far.

better than mbv? no way. compared to that it's a little bit of a bore i'd say.

Same here, loving this album, went out and bought the vinyl after two listens.

Got this on vinyl the other day. Absolute perfection. Less of a...'vibe' to it than Smoke Ring had/has, but the songs are incredible. I could listen to Goldtone all day.

new video for 'never run away' with a slightly different mix! http://www.npr.org/blogs/allsongs/2013/05/01/180361194/kurt-viles-hazy-philadelphia-adventure?sc=tw&cc=share

lol why didn't i notice one of these songs was called "Air Bud", classic flick

air bud owns (in both incarnations)

yeah i'm kinda hungover and bummed out and this record is really great right now, it's better when you're kinda zone out

It's us a nice day for this in New York

I like to think a part of this records success is due to Stella

this is a great record, it has a positive vibe, something few records seem to have over-all.

I just listened to this on an airplane, good traveling music, zen & poignant

this album is so awesome. he brings the golden tones

Video for "KV Crimes" is out, and I like it a lot.

Just realized his initials are 'KV'

str8 up, is that Ned Ragget's photo on side D of the vinyl set?

i love this record so much

i've come around on this one, had to be in the right mood to get it i guess

for reasons beyond my control i have to see this dude play tonight. i like his records just fine but i am not expecting much from the show. anyone caught this tour?

also something called "beach fossils" is opening which sounds pretty terrible

This album sounded great in the spring, a little less so when I listened to it again recently, but still one of my favorites of the year.

"a little less so when I listened to it again recently"

otm

he's great live.

The last time I played this record in whole was sitting on my dad's pontoon boat at his lakehouse over the summer and it was pretty much A+ perfect and I'm afraid to spoil the magic by playing it again.

the first half is way better than the second

wrong

I could listen to Goldtone all day.

Might be seeing him tonight as well but not super fussed. Someone get me excited. Favourite song of his is that remix of Runner Ups. :/

just crank the first track on this album, if that doesn't get you jammin g out then probably not gonna happen

ennui is a motherfucker right guys?

it's not so bad but it can get to you

man

I like him live but the best part is often the acoustic solo bit to start the encore imo. not that the band is bad but he's great by himself.

outraged kurt vile fans

bogue

looks like that bonus disc is available separately, it is credited to Kurt Vile & The Violators.

yeah it's on spotify...one real keeper is the ghost of freddie roach, good tune

some longer/alt version of album tracks...the last song is a cool little instrumental snippet but it's only about 1:30 long...

no one that bought the vinyl is really missing out that much imo

Kuer Vile + The Violators Live:
are they boring as the youtube live clips suggests?

pretty much

bummer..
