They just posted that they're going to be on the new Ghostbusters soundtrack. No idea if it's going to be an older song or something new though.

giant peach into blush. so good. starts at 30:00. i'm like a deadhead for wolf alice. always looking for the best giant peach. this one rules.

I was just listening to part of that Thursday night. Some good stuff, but the songs I found draggy on the album I still find draggy. Didn't get as far as Giant Peach, so I might return to it.

Are you talking about a live album or something?

No, I meant the studio album.

Ha I was using the zing app which didn't show this video. Now I see it.

This band is great.

Badass. Tour starts next month!

produced by Justin Meldal-Johnson, brad is gonna die

AAAAAAAH

no Toronto date :/

song is potentially the hardest thing they've ever put out

it's fun and seems like an ideal taster in advance of whatever the "pop" single will be

Boring.

this band is extremely good

yes

Hmm, noted...

the only new rock band i like really. or listen to. well, maybe savages too. but that is kinda linked to my worship of their singer.

although rufus is slowly but surely making me a car seat headrest fan...

can't face hearing this in case it's crap.

it's good!

this band rules

can't face hearing this in case it's crap.

This band is so all over the map that if you don't like one thing they release, just wait a week and you might like the next one.

(I liked "Yuk Foo," but this is kinda boring imo.)

(And I'm still mad at them for pulling down the original version of "Bros" from all platforms.)

Yeah they're all over the map for sure, JF otm

I like when they're doing a mash of shoegaze and grunge but when that dude sings, ugh

"swallowtail" rules, dude or no

probably should re-listen, Brad

Silk is my favourite Wolf Alice track, which is kind of an outlier?

both this and "Yuk Foo" are pretty good, but the thing is given that every Wolf Alice song I have heard sounds like the work of a different band, I never think to listen to them because I have no internal sense of how they sound.

i mean, i feel like they sorta have three modes: aggressive and sludgy, dreamy and shimmery, and the few songs that occupy the center of that venn diagram ("your loves whore"/"lisbon"?). what surprised me about my love is cool is that it still seemed to maintain an individual sensibility even as it careened between these styles?

lol and even as i'm saying all of this i don't think your impression is wrong katherine

OK this is more like it. I did not like the Yuk Foo song. That first album is a stone classic, one of the very best guitar records in years.

it still seemed to maintain an individual sensibility even as it careened between these styles

Yeah, the stylistic shifts were jarring to me at first, especially Swallowtail and Freazy. But I grew to like the whole thing pretty quickly. The variety makes it work well as an album.

Was just going to say something like this, though I hadn't figured out how to describe their modes. I don't think their is such outrageous variety in their work at all. The latest song sounds of a piece with similar tracks on their first album. I like it much better than Yuk Foo, but not sure how much I like it as such.

at least half of their template for the last album seemed to be "shutterbug" by veruca salt and i think this explains why i like them so much.

prefer the demo of Your Love's Whore to the album version but I get why they re-calibrated it for the album

Lollaalooza 2016 video kicking my ass - not since Queens or Pj has a band rocked my ass off so much

I had tickets to see them at Rock and Roll Hotel (a 400 capacity venue) on Friday night and had to sell them at the last minute because something came up. Hopefully they'll come back in 2018 and play 9:30 club or something.

obligatory Zane Lowe interview is up on Beats1 now, which I don't have access to, but usually they repost on youtube within a day or so.

Don't Delete The Kisses rules

No, but Beautifully Unconventional rules.

The beginning keeps reminding me of whatever sample "1 Thing" is built around.
