n/a, would I like Psychic Paramount?

the various designations of "metal" are seriously the most vexing thing to me

"Veronica Falls" sounds like Hollywood sadcore to me.
I just call(PP) mind blowing, loud psychedlic noise. I believe they were labelled post-rock in their formative years.
― Damo Suzuki's Parrot, Monday, 30 January 2012 20:22 (twelve years ago) link
See I like PP II as a full album because it maintains the heavy swirl and general noisy loud feeling for a sustained period. One track is great but it's more effort for me to get into- and then out of- that mood than it is to just kind of let it go for 40 min or so (or however long the album is, not sure exactly, am at work computer atm) I can see how people wouldn't have the patience for it, but that's part of what I like.

Hollywood sadcore goes for the dreamy slow vibe, doesn't it? That's nothing like what V. Falls do.

jaymc i don't think you would, it has some post-rock elements but it's probably too loud/abrasive ... but who knows?

ive been loving the WITTR lately (after i voted unfortunately). <3 the dead can danceisms in the first track
― ≧^◡^≦ (diamonddave85), Monday, 30 January 2012 20:23 (twelve years ago) link
also the 'knife sharpening' sample in track 2 is pretty badass
― ≧^◡^≦ (diamonddave85), Monday, 30 January 2012 20:24 (twelve years ago) link
i think i forgot to listen to the new WITR, is it significantly different from their other stuff?
― congratulations (n/a), Monday, 30 January 2012 20:24 (twelve years ago) link
the psychic paramount used to be Laddio Bolocko, who were one of my favourite bands. TPP doesnt disappoint at all.
― Armand Schaubroeck Ratfucker, Monday, 30 January 2012 20:24 (twelve years ago) link
ooh i liked their last record but i tuned out metal completely this year so havent heard this one. sweet album title though
― ciderpress, Monday, 30 January 2012 20:24 (twelve years ago) link
Psychic Paramount are psych but they feel quite jazzrock in a high velocity Last Exit sort of way. huge xps
― Derartu Cthulhu (NickB), Monday, 30 January 2012 20:24 (twelve years ago) link
Jaymc I'm not sure if you would like PP or not -- it's kinda aimless compared to what I think you usually like. But iirc I first heard PP when n/a recommended it to you, me, and Dan M last year around this time!
I didn't vote for WITTR but I like them alright.
― La Lechera, Monday, 30 January 2012 20:25 (twelve years ago) link
and the WITTR is the best album they've made I think. Love all their albums though. Fuck the tr00 kvlt black metallers who don't like them
― Armand Schaubroeck Ratfucker, Monday, 30 January 2012 20:25 (twelve years ago) link
Outloud is one of those things I wish I had the time to do - just don't see how I'd fit it in though, in practise :(
What kind of music is veronica falls? Soz if this has been gone over, am on bberry and only skimmed

I definitely like what Wolves in the Throne Room are doing musically more than Liturgy

VF, to me, sounds like some sunny Cali late 60s stuff filtered through C86 sonics and presented with a little more gloom than either.
― Johnny Fever, Monday, 30 January 2012 20:27 (twelve years ago) link
... embarrassingly, that is so OTM
― I spend a lot of time thinking about apricots (DJP), Monday, 30 January 2012 20:28 (twelve years ago) link
"Bad Feeling" is a great VF track to get a taste imo.
― Johnny Fever, Monday, 30 January 2012 20:28 (twelve years ago) link
I've never heard the band. I was just riffing on the name.
― jaymc, Monday, 30 January 2012 20:28 (twelve years ago) link
Metal, taking back the wolves. Suck it, indie rock!
You'd fit in fine, Lex, considering the variety of stuff that gets played – but on the other hand, you might not like a lot of the stuff that gets played.

Re Pyschic Paramount: "aimless" and "abrasive" certainly aren't my thing, but "post-rock" and "jazzrock" are. I guess I'll have to listen.
― jaymc, Monday, 30 January 2012 20:29 (twelve years ago) link
I wonder if any of the 14 metal albums I voted for will place. Probably not.
― EZ Snappin, Monday, 30 January 2012 20:29 (twelve years ago) link
xp - You would have to at least pretend to be tolerant of the stuff that gets played.
― La Lechera, Monday, 30 January 2012 20:30 (twelve years ago) link
Haha maybe just as well I can't do it then

outloud is mostly kerr and j3ff t 24/7 with some occasional dance crew, take that how you will

I should give it a go at some pt though - always interesting to try out music social media things that actually catch on (so many don't)

FALSEHOOD AND LIES.
You don't have to pretend to be tolerant, you just have to not be overwhelmingly negative like KJB :P.
― Gamera died for our sins (J3ff T.), Monday, 30 January 2012 20:33 (twelve years ago) link
Well, we do have KJB in there regularly and he hates almost everything! But yeah, most people are pretty respectful of what others play. It's nice to be nice. You're more than welcome to join in, lex, as is everyone else - it's an open place.
― emil.y, Monday, 30 January 2012 20:33 (twelve years ago) link
xpost hahaha
Reminder: KJB prefers live recordings over studio work.
― EZ Snappin, Monday, 30 January 2012 20:34 (twelve years ago) link
I think KJB's taste overlaps with mine significantly!

My only experience with Outloud was dropping in a handful of times while my wife was out of town, but I heard in there what ended up being my #2 track.
― jaymc, Monday, 30 January 2012 20:36 (twelve years ago) link
I think Lil Kim

If Cosmic Dead places, I think that that will be proof positive of the effectiveness of the outloud hivemind this year.
― Gamera died for our sins (J3ff T.), Monday, 30 January 2012 20:38 (twelve years ago) link
This album is almost expressly made to push all my buttons, but failed to do so every time I gave it a listen. :(
― Johnny Fever, Monday, 30 January 2012 20:39 (twelve years ago) link
This is one that I couldn't get with when it was released in the summer, and I resolved to give it a try in the winter, but when the winter came I just defaulted to actual Fever Ray instead. Not bad at all though
