WELP, I didn't actually find a copy of it, but the Moon Duo side of the Record Store Day 7" is beautiful.

this "vol.2" comp of singles, etc. is ace.

This band kicks much butt. I recommend Vol. II and the split 7".

I am so going to see them open up for Spectrum in two weeks.

I really like Wooden Shjips, but not feeling that one at all. It's not even slightly amusing. Maybe because I HATE the original. :/
― Bilderbooger (van smack), Sunday, 6 June 2010 19:42 (thirteen years ago) link
Shjips are cool 'n all, but I have a tough time imagining needing more than one record by them (for me it's the first... tho' the singles comps are good too).Same thing for Moon Duo.
― chromecassettes, Sunday, 6 June 2010 23:25 (thirteen years ago) link
I am digging this, but I've never heard the LCD Soundsystem track.

Gotta see these guys one of these days. Vol 2 is grate.

Saw them in Antwerp, Belgium last April. Dude loaned his cymbals to Yob :)
― Nate Carson, Monday, 7 June 2010 04:57 (thirteen years ago) link
The Shjips are fun live. I think I have the first album and first singles comp., can't say I play them a whole lot, though.
― I just wish he hadn't adopted the "ilxor" moniker (ilxor), Monday, 7 June 2010 13:25 (thirteen years ago) link
there was a dancey moshpit of sorts during their set at ATP. well fun.
― gnarly sceptre, Monday, 7 June 2010 13:32 (thirteen years ago) link
I cast my lot with Wooden Shjips fans. The krautrockish beat & the fine-ass guitar skree make for an irresistable combo for me. The 1st LP is the best, but its all good.
― ImprovSpirit, Monday, 7 June 2010 15:39 (thirteen years ago) link
I listen to the first lp the least out of everything they've released.I dunno, seem like a strong singles band to me (based on the comps).Would really love to see a Wooden Shjips/White Hills bill.
― Trip Maker, Monday, 7 June 2010 15:41 (thirteen years ago) link
I totally went through a "phase" last summer with my "Loose Lips" 7". I just picked up the Moon Duo CD but haven't listened yet, and I almost bought another WS 7" a few days ago but it was like NINE DOLLARS

Isn't it great? I think I like WS more though.

Somebody described the sound of this band as a cross between Neu and Quicksilver Messenger Service...is this right? What album(s) sound most like this?
― hapshash jar tempo (Drugs A. Money), Tuesday, 15 March 2011 00:04 (thirteen years ago) link
All of their output sounds the same. Vol. 1 is their best collection. Neu! and Quicksilver is more how I would describe the side project, Moon Duo.

this is great
― dynamicinterface, Tuesday, 29 March 2011 23:03 (thirteen years ago) link
soooo yeah, this new moon duo record is great? i mean, i expected to like it, but i think i *love* it. I saw them two weeks ago and liked the show, but it felt pretty one-note overall -- not a huge surprise, really. but the record, while not hugely eclectic, is nicely textured/layered.
― tylerw, Thursday, 28 April 2011 15:26 (thirteen years ago) link
It's my favorite record out of the MD/WS camp so far, I think. The remixes are pretty nice, too.Played Sonic Booms remix of Scars on the air last night.
― Trip Maker, Thursday, 28 April 2011 15:30 (thirteen years ago) link
where does one get the remixes?
― tylerw, Thursday, 28 April 2011 15:31 (thirteen years ago) link
Mine came with Mazes as a bonus disc when I bought it at a local indie shop.

oh bummerz. and i bought it from the band at the show!
― tylerw, Thursday, 28 April 2011 15:34 (thirteen years ago) link
(the album itself, i mean. no remix disc included)
I got it at google.
― Trip Maker, Thursday, 28 April 2011 15:36 (thirteen years ago) link
It was included in a limited number of copies of Mazes, I guess.
― Trip Maker, Thursday, 28 April 2011 15:37 (thirteen years ago) link
hmm google, is that like a new record store or something?

OTM. Perfect vibe throughout the whole thing.

Is that similar to the font on some of the Sun Araw stuff?
