It was a good music week.
Goddammit, I can't adequately describe how excited I am about the upcoming War on Drugs album. Their new song has been driving me crazy all week: https://soundcloud.com/secretlycanadian/the-war-on-drugs-red.../
YES! This album (I hope) will be great. Their first album was a really good listen that I go back to now and then and the track you linked to is another good from them.
Misteur Valaire's new album Bellevue I really like their stuff, Golden Bombay is my favorite album of theirs so far. I've never heard of another band quite like them (but i'm not really knowlegable in music), do any of you know of similar stuff?
I received a $50 gift certificate to iTunes from my father/mother in law for Christmas. I have a ten hour drive ahead of me this Thursday and need some new music. I reached out to two friends edisonbaines and sounds_sound and asked what to get. edison recommended the latest album Breathe Owl Breathe, here is an older song of theirs titled "Swimming". sounds_sound suggested Sun Kil Moon, an album I've never listened to aside from Glen Tipton. I'm looking forward to the drive. Beyond that, I checked out the new Broken Bells, After the Disco. edit: I also listened to Peru Maravilloso: Vintage Latin, Tropical & Cumbia per edisonbaines suggestion. -A fantastic listen. It was cold and rainy last week but once I listened to that album, it warmed up.
i've been seeking out the coziest winter albums that suit the gloomy weather. 1. the microphones - the glow pt. 2. ace album that's essential for wrapping yourself up in a blanket and drinking hot cocoa. melancholy and moving; it's my favorite album of the moment. 2. electric president - electric president. a 2006 release that is SCARILY reminiscent of the postal service; they incorporate the same dramatic synth swooshes, cutesy-lonely lyrics, and indietronica elements. beautifully arranged album. check it out this insant if you're a fan of tps. 3. the antlers - in the attic of the universe. ITAOTU is a comfy, quiet little concept album. it's slow and nuanced; it might be my favorite album by the antlers. 4. lorde - no better. no better is a new single lorde released a few days ago that didn't make it onto pure heroine. i like the clean hip-hop style of the song. it's short, but infectious and sweet.
