I finally figured out what Glass Beach reminds me of - the second Paper Airplanes record. (the Glass Beach is way more unhinged and ambitious tho)

idek what Turnover count as anymore but both of their new tunes are chill and lovely, seems a shame it didn't come out in time for summer
― Simon H., Thursday, 12 September 2019 13:56 (four years ago) link
lastly idk how I missed that there's a new Tiny Moving Parts out Friday and they've released three excellent advance tracks? nothing really new but no one else writes concise hooky math-emo quite like them

aaand brad was not lying about the Microwave album. it's seriously good
the TMP is also good but in a more "on par" kinda way (nothing wrong with that)
― Simon H., Saturday, 14 September 2019 08:19 (four years ago) link
yes the microwave is a scorcher

Can't stop listening to Modern Baseball's complete discography these past few days. They were such a good band, I really miss them.

While I'm here, I've got to also recommend the equally difficult to categorise and wonderful Glass Beach
whoa what the fuck is this record

I wanted to like that Microwave album a lot because it reminds me of so many bands and sounds that i love, but couldn't fully get into it. I've been obsessed with the Glass Beach album since mentioned in here. Jesus. seem like really nice people too. got back to me after I said some nice things on instagram and they were lovely. Hope they come to ny.

it might have been a mistake to instinctively skip last year's Cursive record cause the advance tracks from the new one are sounding solid
― Simon H., Tuesday, 1 October 2019 14:23 (four years ago) link
holy crap this glass beach album is so balls-to-the-wall, it's like if los campesinos wrote the soundtrack to la la land

the new 95-minute Jeff Rosenstock record gives you a very good sense of their show right down to the anti-harassment warning, even if I'm mad "Get Old Forever" somehow didn't make the cut
― Simon H., Friday, 18 October 2019 05:13 (four years ago) link
*live record, sorry if that made anyone too excited lol
new 95-minute Jeff Rosenstock record wait what?... Aw shit yes, I'll be in on this today
― Jonathan Hellion Mumble, Friday, 18 October 2019 06:37 (four years ago) link
i also just discovered the glass beach record lol
― ciderpress, Thursday, 24 October 2019 22:05 (four years ago) link
weird coincidence as I was just relistening. great album!!
― Simon H., Thursday, 24 October 2019 22:06 (four years ago) link
Has anyone else tried the Weatherday album? Strong Brave Little Abacus vibes, but much faster and brighter. It takes roughly two seconds to begin digging the album a lot, and although it doesn't sustain that heart-in-stomach feeling all the way through, there are some insane highs.

good question. haven't listened to the full album yet, but the singles were all excellent.

i'm obsessed with the album. it gives me goosebumps.
i thought Plastic Cough was OK, but this one is a huge leap forward (pardon the cliche)
― alpine static, Thursday, 7 November 2019 18:43 (four years ago) link
Oh wow, neither of you were lying about this Great Grandpa album.

― american bradass (BradNelson), Friday, 8 November 2019 16:40 (four years ago) link
oh wow this great grandpa album! the band name really put it off but i finally just put it on and i'm so glad i did!
― Mordy, Monday, 11 November 2019 21:57 (four years ago) link
I hesitate to make the comparison but it makes me think of a slightly more extroverted/rockin' Big Thief

Rosenstock + Stevenson have a Neil Young covers EP out! For some reason!

as much as I like that album I do get a "this is the one right before the amazing one" vibe from it
― Simon H., Wednesday, 13 November 2019 18:13 (four years ago) link
that’s probably/hopefully true
