Oh man, that Blood Orange cover. I dunno about the typography (nothing wrong with it, just doesn't do anything for me) but that the pink light and offkilter angle make me really, really uncomfortable for some reason. Which is a good thing.

what's the violin cover?

Gabriel Saloman, ex-Yellow Swans guy.

CAROUSEL! CAROUSEL! (Telephone thing), Thursday, 3 October 2013 20:42 (twelve years ago)

ex-yellow swans guys are killing it these days. is that one any good?

i'll be your mraz (NickB), Thursday, 3 October 2013 20:49 (twelve years ago)

No idea- I just liked the cover, and based on Pete Swanson's recent output figured I should give it a shot when it comes out in (IIRC) a week

a fifth of misty beethoven (cryptosicko), Tuesday, 12 November 2013 06:29 (twelve years ago)

catching up: dig the black milk, zoltan, pillar without mercy (hate the text design tho), tropic of cancer, saltine, pusha (great!)

drake, neko case, danny brown, audrey o'day & the weeknd are abysmal. how does that even happen?

CANONICAL artists, etc., etc. (contenderizer), Tuesday, 12 November 2013 07:07 (twelve years ago)

p.s. also love the castles, fuzz (great album too!), black lizard, cosmic machine comp, gabriel soloman and black devil covers. good shit. doomriders is nice, but not a patch on darkness come alive.

http://www.austinchronicle.com/binary/1fca/music_phases6.jpg

^ power trip - manifest decimation (not a knockout, but nicely creepy)

like the parkay quarts! looks exactly like they sound.

CANONICAL artists, etc., etc. (contenderizer), Wednesday, 20 November 2013 09:34 (twelve years ago)

somewhere between early fall and early pavement then?

but my heart is full of woah (NickB), Wednesday, 20 November 2013 09:56 (twelve years ago)

When I interviewed them they stressed how much they hate being compared to both those bands lol

the Shearer of simulated snowsex etc. (Dwight Yorke), Wednesday, 20 November 2013 12:09 (twelve years ago)

Great job of asserting some aesthetic distance there guys

but my heart is full of woah (NickB), Wednesday, 20 November 2013 12:19 (twelve years ago)

That's hilarious. We HATE being compared to the two bands who we sound the most like and whose entire visual aesthetic we draw from!
