Metals is such a great album
― niels, Saturday, 22 April 2017 09:50 (seven years ago) link
I haven't listened to Metals in a while but I have fond memories of "the Circle married the Line".
― AlXTC from Paris, Saturday, 22 April 2017 10:07 (seven years ago) link
I actually don't know many of the songs by name since I just put on the cd and listen all the way through bcz it's an awesome album

A COMMOTION!

this is her best album by some distance imo
― ToddBonzalez (BradNelson), Friday, 28 April 2017 16:00 (seven years ago) link
"any party" is stunning
oh i'm referring to the new one as her best record, not metals
― ToddBonzalez (BradNelson), Friday, 28 April 2017 16:01 (seven years ago) link
the brief sample of mastodon's "high road" on "a man is not his song" is both lol and amazing
― ToddBonzalez (BradNelson), Friday, 28 April 2017 16:40 (seven years ago) link
Interesting! I played it through once yesterday and thought it was her most indulgently tuneless set of songs, I'll try again though.
The Mastodon sample just had me thinking an extra tab was open
― monotony, Friday, 28 April 2017 22:51 (seven years ago) link
idgi, there are so many tunes on this record
― ToddBonzalez (BradNelson), Friday, 28 April 2017 22:52 (seven years ago) link
sounds very odd to me sonically, but also fresh - look forward to spending more time with it, certainly less straightforward than metals though it has a lot of the same qualities
― niels, Monday, 1 May 2017 17:54 (seven years ago) link
my exact thought was "fuck, did the promo tab move into a different album by mistake, that happens sometimes"

yeah clearly this merits multiple listens, gets better and better

it's in 6/8 but each verse clips the last beat from the last measure
― Raw Like Siouxsie (James Redd and the Blecchs), Saturday, 11 December 2021 23:03 (two years ago) link
Reference to mountains and metallurgic percussion might fire Wagnerian association some of us already have with that time signature.
― Raw Like Siouxsie (James Redd and the Blecchs), Saturday, 11 December 2021 23:08 (two years ago) link
Anyway, don’t know if I ever listened to this whole album before. Good stuff.
― Raw Like Siouxsie (James Redd and the Blecchs), Sunday, 12 December 2021 02:49 (two years ago) link
Her best album by far, even if her best-known songs are elsewhere
― sctttnnnt (pgwp), Sunday, 12 December 2021 23:05 (two years ago) link
New album out April 14 produced by Feist with Mocky and Robbie Lackritz, with additional production from Blake Mills.

Metals is her best album (even if the biggest singles are elsewhere), so this is great to hear. And personally I think Blake Mills elevates just about everything he's involved in. So I'm excited for this. I liked these first three songs though need to spend more time with them.
― sctttnnnt (pgwp), Wednesday, 15 February 2023 17:31 (one year ago) link
New songs are lovely

Awesome new songs yes
I saw her live set a year ago playing a lot of these songs and it was so supremely good
― pee change (flamboyant goon tie included), Wednesday, 22 February 2023 16:03 (one year ago) link
Metals is her best album
I discovered her with "The Reminder" and am still most partial to that one.
― immodesty blaise (jimbeaux), Thursday, 23 February 2023 15:01 (one year ago) link
The Reminder is such a beautifully constructed album that still sounds tremendous. Her most immediate hooks and my favorite, too.
― Indexed, Thursday, 23 February 2023 15:04 (one year ago) link
I love the reminder too though I think it loses some momentum with the 1-2 of The Park and The Water. I’ve always felt it was a brilliant album undermined by its sequencing.
― sctttnnnt (pgwp), Thursday, 23 February 2023 15:38 (one year ago) link
Yeah these are great.
Weird how some of her songs now make me think of James Blake singing them.
― change display name (Jordan), Thursday, 23 February 2023 15:49 (one year ago) link
I like “Hiding out in the open” a lot ! The other new tracks I need to listen to more.I totally missed her latest album “Pleasure”. I suppose it isn’t great ?
― AlXTC from Paris, Friday, 24 February 2023 13:17 (one year ago) link
Pleasure is good but it’s also my least favorite of hers.
― sctttnnnt (pgwp), Friday, 24 February 2023 15:44 (one year ago) link
I quite enjoyed Pleasure, it's a bit rawer and rougher around the edges than The Reminder or Metals but I like her rockier moments.
― ˈʌglɪɪst preɪ, Friday, 24 February 2023 17:50 (one year ago) link
I am really enjoying the new one, it's so clear and light, like a veil has been taken off her voice and playing.
― assert (matttkkkk), Saturday, 15 April 2023 02:22 (one year ago) link
It's a very good Feist album. If you like her, you'll enjoy it. If you don't, I can't see this being the one to convince you.
― Indexed, Monday, 17 April 2023 16:45 (one year ago) link
feel like every album since and including metals has been an idiosyncratic masterpiece, she's just the best

I keep playing it so will fourth the sentiment!
― Indexed, Tuesday, 2 May 2023 22:17 (one year ago) link
whole album is so good but "of womankind" -> "become the earth" -> "borrow trouble" is where i feel like mania and depression are gonna pull me apart
― flamenco drop (BradNelson), Friday, 19 May 2023 20:55 (one year ago) link
I saw her last night. Do anything you can to get a ticket imo

If one skips the opener, Multitudes is about as perfect a Sunday morning record as I can recall.
