New Tortoise track (free mp3) is nuts
P-Frank:
Tortoise is a band I've had trouble getting into for awhile, but I am looking forward to seeing them at the Pitchfork Festival in Chicago because I am sure it will be one of those transcendent moments where I just "get" the band instantly (see: Okkervil River).

Out. Get out.
TheFuriousWombat:
Don't get me wrong, I love Tortoise a lot. That's probably why I hate this song. See, I love the music Tortoise has made in the past. This...this is something else altogether. Some weird almost-power-metal wankery. I think I'll go back to 'Millions Now Living...' and 'TNT' thanks very much.

I love the music that Radiohead made before Kid A and Wire records like Pink Flag. Doesn't mean I don't like what they do now. It is just different! Let artists progress rather than stagnate.
TheFuriousWombat:
I'm all for progress as long as it's moving towards something better. I just think this song is suggestive of an awful direction for any band to go in.
