does anyone else think 'She Found Now' sounds very similar to Astrobrite's 2007 song 'Xero Hero (Lonely Boy)' (@45:12 in the video)? or is this just a case of all shoegaze sounding the same?

Well. I put the l.p. on at home but lasted about a minute.

maybe wasn't in the mood.

I played the CD in the car about 3 weeks ago. Sounds good, was in the mood, I guess.

kevins cultural observations are probably one of the most interesting of that time

i remember watching this interview and thinking this is probably one of few people on tv to talk about third culture kids and felt good about it

So, when's the new EP coming?

This year.

ooo

"This year."

-- Kevin Shields

I was born there, and I lived there, and I've got an American passport.

new vinyl pressings and tshirts on their webstore. might be reading a bit too into it, but did they leak the name of a new release with this shirt? has "fuzz" meant anything in particular with this band before now?

Just looks like a generic word to me.

that could be a schematic for a fuzz FX pedal circuit or something

It's a diagram of a fuzz pedal, innit?

(x-post: ha!)

they do have a new album coming though

so it's rumored but we know how long the last one was rumored.

yeah i mean i'm probably reading too much into it but it seems strange to have new tshirts for each of their albums (mbv one arguable i guess) and then have one representing a particular aspect of their sound

i'm pretty curiuos about the new all-analog LP masters, might have to see what the steve hoffman gang has dug up on em

Diversifying into Eurorack?

Euro made me realise...

haha.

whoa, new 9 minute song from kevin shields + brian eno!

i like it quite a bit. sonic nods to "to here knows when", particularly a part about 2/3 in that even briefly takes on the same melody

blocked in the uk

actually, it wouldn't surprise me to learn that whatever combo of pedals and instruments making the loudest noises in this is pretty much the same combo that produced the noises in "to here knows when". i assume he just steps on the "plane wing space distortion closeup psych trip meltdown jetstream" button and bends the results back and forth a bit

really? wtf

Want to hear this! Why tf is this on Adult Swim?

'Only Once Away My Son' - what to make of that title?

Sounds like the answer to some sort of football question

‘have man u ever lost to mk dons dad?’

‘only once away my son’

"Is Britain great again coz of Brexit, Dad?"

lol nick

Aggressive geoblock by AS btw, damn. Guess I'll dust off soulseek again or something.

why is every single commissioned and released by Adult Swim on the Adult Swim website? 🤔

I didn't know it was an Adult Swim exclusive because the Adult Swim website didn't load

I didn't click but I read the URL

thank you based shakey

mind you this was a perfect opportunity to prank us all, spurned

I wish, one day, I will be as good at the internet as you sic, I'm not worthy

(ty shakey!)

only usa my son

yeah that was kind of uneventful lol

I was certainly hoping for something a little more adventurous since the track is a collaboration with Eno. It's pretty standard stuff. And it could comfortably fit in an intro to a Sigur Ros song circa the parenthesis/brackets (()) album (I mention them as a band who exploited this sound the most in recent times).

I have found that Eno pushed himself a little more, or at least produced more captivating or interesting sounds, when working with Harmonia. I listen to a few of their tracks every so often and the nature and treatment of the tones is so captivating that it's hypnotic. I think even after all these years, some of their tracks sound refreshing, whereas this new track sounds like some stock samples, though I'm not saying they are.

I liked that but it needed to be 35min long and through the stereo and with me not at work listening to other people's phone calls.

Weirdly, it's been on Adult Swim Singles' Soundcloud page for two days and has only had 21 plays.

Holy shit, that is something I never expected to happen. Sounds great to me, basically exactly as billed.

Though this is as strange a place for that to land as when that Mark Hollis fragment made it onto that TV drama or wherever.

wonder if we will actually get a new album next year

Someone should speed this up 800x and see if it's actually Justin Bieber.

thanks Shakey!

that's an example of 1+1<1, so generic and boring. two of the most interesting musicians working together and creating nothing.
