Oh that's weird, last time I was at my parents' house I took back The Satellite Years CD that I bought when I was young because I couldn't remember what the hell it was. It holds up quite well I think despite the post-rock and 'core elements jarring a bit at times.
Neither of those new songs do much for me but it's nice they're still around!

It sounds like... Postal Service? Not bad, mind.

New interview/feature in Stereogum makes it sound like quite something.
While the title track and “Bastardizer” are laser-lit, howl-and-point anthems that could conceivably elevate them to the status of alt-emo festival staples like Manchester Orchestra, Circa Survive, and pre-downfall Brand New — all of whom they’ve opened for — there’s not much contemporary comparison to the nine-minute ambient odyssey “Five Cups” or the IDM-goes-post-hardcore frenzy of “Gameshark” or “Heartbeats” merging swirling house rhythms with atmospheric post-rock guitars.
― Simon H., Tuesday, 19 June 2018 18:04 (five years ago) link
pre-downfall Brand New
certainly a way to put this
psyched for the record though, it is getting majorly hyped
― flamenco blorf (BradNelson), Tuesday, 19 June 2018 18:08 (five years ago) link
though usually the records that ian really enthusiastically hypes i end up being pretty cool on (ex. harmlessness, goodness, surprised the foxing record doesn't end in "ness")

that *is* exactly how i feel whenever i read things about the new foxing record so

also lol @ the bit about Chris Walla getting mad at them over the bagpipes

the new restorations record is outstanding!!! riyl: the gaslight anthem but powered by emo

hearing both the national and the weakerthans in it too. it's awesome
― flamenco blorf (BradNelson), Monday, 25 June 2018 17:23 (five years ago) link
oooh always dug these dudes but haven't heard much from them for a while
― I want to change my display name (dan m), Monday, 25 June 2018 17:44 (five years ago) link

i don't really know how to judge self defense family records but this seems pretty excellent

I have listened to "Slapstick" way too often for the Foxing album to be two godddamn months away
― Simon H., Tuesday, 26 June 2018 17:13 (five years ago) link
it's an incredible song
― flamenco blorf (BradNelson), Tuesday, 26 June 2018 17:40 (five years ago) link
the new Mom Jeans songs are really fun, and they're touring w/ awakebutstillinbed so I might have to go see that
― Simon H., Thursday, 28 June 2018 18:38 (five years ago) link
simon have you checked out that restorations song. idk why i think you'd like it but
― flamenco blorf (BradNelson), Thursday, 28 June 2018 18:40 (five years ago) link
I did! I like it!
― Simon H., Thursday, 28 June 2018 18:42 (five years ago) link
hell yeah
― flamenco blorf (BradNelson), Thursday, 28 June 2018 18:45 (five years ago) link
They must have multiple vocalists? The guy on "Wales" is a dead ringer for Bry Webb.
― Simon H., Thursday, 28 June 2018 18:48 (five years ago) link
i think it's all the one dude
― flamenco blorf (BradNelson), Thursday, 28 June 2018 18:51 (five years ago) link
but then i've only just gotten into this band with the new record lol
yeah it's the same guy! he has a bizarre range; there are moments on the new record where he sounds like matt berninger and gord downie combined
― flamenco blorf (BradNelson), Thursday, 28 June 2018 18:54 (five years ago) link
super weird, also made me realize I really miss the constantines
― Simon H., Thursday, 28 June 2018 18:55 (five years ago) link
also checking out the Just Friends album since they're on the Mom Jeans/awake... show and WHAT IS THIS
― Simon H., Thursday, 28 June 2018 19:40 (five years ago) link
like, Jeff Rosenstock meets the Go! Team with the occasional dash of pop and soul? and rapping?

made me realize I really miss the constantines
otm
For anyone interested, this excellent live Restorations set features most of their best older tunes plus provides a great view of their instrumentation (incl. one main vocalist, two backing, & drummer making drummer faces).

despite really liking the band I've never been able to shake the view that they basically come off like a bunch of dads who bought cool equipment with money from their day jobs and somehow made v good grownup dad-indie rock
― I want to change my display name (dan m), Thursday, 28 June 2018 20:34 (five years ago) link

i wish i had known about lp3 when it came out, would've been totally obsessed with it
― flamenco blorf (BradNelson), Thursday, 28 June 2018 22:14 (five years ago) link
at least i'm totally obsessed with it now
