Also, the new Nachtmystium album is a grower, tell your friends

Welp it got me on the first listen. Honestly part of why I love it is because of it's potential to cause hilarious bullshit like this to exist.

Thank you Stewart Voegtlin, every time I think I spend far too much time waxing masturbatory on the philosophical implications of a fucking metal record or somesuch, I can always spring by yr site and be reminded that I could be so much worse.

I mean, come on, 18 footnotes guys! Haw haw frickin haw

scratch that it is actually really good

Yeah I heard Post Acid a while ago and was like 'hey this isn't what I thought he would sound like'

I'm enjoying this album.

On another note: new Blonde Redhead. Queue excitement.

Chris McCaughan from The Lawrence Arms is putting out another acoustic album in August.

I am very excited. "Four Five One Two" was just brilliance.

Ugh, that website is the worst. It's like a haven for people who think the guys from metal-archives aren't already goddamn pretentious enough. It's as though when writing reviews they spend more time looking words up in a thesaurus than listening to the dang music

amok · « **Reply #704 on:** 19 Jun 2010, 08:12 »

That's the worst review I've read since the infamous 'Kid A' one.

Quote from: some douche

Like the Nachtmystium moniker, this “stance” conveys (a sort of) message, but means (exactly) nothing.

This guy's writing makes me want to punch him in the dick.

And for the record, I had to edit this because when I read the review I initially thought it was even worse than it was because I mixed up which footnote was attached to the above quote. In my defense, as Dovey pointed out, there's fuckin' 18 of them.

Here's two of this year's best releases, which (as far as i could see) haven't been mentioned in this thread so far:

Bonobo - Black Sands
Kammerflimmer Kollektief - Wildling

JD · « **Reply #709 on:** 23 Jun 2010, 16:11 »

Kveep's been all over Bonobo. Haven't heard that second one though.

evilbobthebob · « **Reply #710 on:** 23 Jun 2010, 16:24 »

End of a Year have just put out another excellent release, You Are Beneath Me. Assuming you've never heard of them, they're post hardcore/emo from New York. You can pick up a couple of their tracks free @ www.deathwishinc.com. I might put the album up on the hardcore thread tomorrow.

TheFuriousWombat · « **Reply #711 on:** 24 Jun 2010, 09:13 »

New Blond Redhead in September which should be good. Hearing that the new Arcade Fire album is 16 songs also makes me think waiting so long for it might well be worthwhile.

SWOON! at My Gravitas · « **Reply #712 on:** 24 Jun 2010, 10:44 »

So Julie Christmas' solo album is supposed to be released this fall

My erection has an erection, that has an erection of its own. It's like an infinite chain of exponentially shrinking boners

Fractal erection would be an awesome name for a band.

Yes I know what he described isn't fractal.

Scandanavian War Machine · « **Reply #717 on:** 24 Jun 2010, 16:04 »

whenever I have to say that band name outloud (which, admittedly, is almost never) I always just open my mouth a little, like I'm about to vocalize, but then just make a really surprised face instead.

"have you guys heard of

? they're not terrible!"

scarred · « **Reply #718 on:** 24 Jun 2010, 19:11 »

i rather enjoy a lot of their singles, i am just too lazy to get into their albums when i know that they'll be on some kexp comp

speaking of bands i'm not really into, HEALTH's DISCO2 is fucking fantastic

JD · « **Reply #720 on:** 24 Jun 2010, 20:50 »

shit this has been a good year for metal so far

SWOON! at My Gravitas · « **Reply #721 on:** 24 Jun 2010, 21:54 »

Speaking of, Kongh's new album is super duper great. That particular song sounds a lot like a slowed-down Baroness, but the rest of their stuff is probably most comparable to Yob

De_El · « **Reply #722 on:** 24 Jun 2010, 23:40 »

HEALTH//DISCO2 is definitely decent, at least for the CFCF, Pictureplane, SALEM, and Tobacco mixes on it. I think USA Boys is def the best track, though.

scarred · « **Reply #723 on:** 24 Jun 2010, 23:57 »

agreed.

StaedlerMars · « **Reply #724 on:** 25 Jun 2010, 00:03 »

I meant to get back to you on that. Definitely, USA Boys. Best track.

The RJD2 instrumental mix "Inversions of the Colossus" is also really good.

StaedlerMars · « **Reply #725 on:** 26 Jun 2010, 01:20 »

Oh, and new Of Montreal track

gosh guys way to not be excited: new thermals track

TheFuriousWombat · « **Reply #726 on:** 01 Jul 2010, 06:51 »

No surprise here, the new Dirty Projectors/Bjork collaboration is an unlistenable mess.

scarred · « **Reply #727 on:** 01 Jul 2010, 13:34 »

i feel the same way about the new books album.

i mean if it was instrumentals it'd be okay but they throw in so many goddamn samples that it ruins everything.

of course i never really liked the books to begin with, so there we go.

Koremora · « **Reply #728 on:** 01 Jul 2010, 19:57 »

On the other hand HOLY FUCKING SHIT THE NEW BOOKS RECORD IS THE GREATEST THING I HAVE EVER HEARD WHAT THE FUCK YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

The intricate layering of samples that leads to a Dadaist ridiculousness coated in meaningful emotional epiphanies and vice versa is PRECISELY why The Books fucking rule.

Some surprise news...

New Android Lust! "The Human Animal" comes out on July 22nd...this was announced less than a month before the release date.

And SPV has finally cleared up its financial difficulties it seems, so the long delayed new Skinny Puppy album appears to be coming out on August 31st, after several delays.

On that note, you can now download a new Ohgr track called "Tragek"(one dollar), as well as "Welcome to Collidoscope" and it's dozen or two remiixes(these are free) from his website.

Well shit this new Danzig album is actually pretty rockin'

New Deerhunter just announced for September. Should be awesome. And apparently there's a new Panda Bear album out that month too.

David_Dovey · « **Reply #738 on:** 12 Jul 2010, 06:19 »

Every review I've seen of it has said that it's mediocre at best and I wouldn't say it quite lives up to the first four records but it's certainly the best out of anything past that and just good fun besides.

Inlander · « **Reply #739 on:** 12 Jul 2010, 08:37 »

Dovey you should be listening to the new Darren Hanlon album because it's ace.

Oh wait I guess you'll have to wait til this weekend because your local record store isn't run by the guy who also runs Hanlon's label. Bummer.

I've been listening to Gangland Buries Its Own pretty much nonstop since Friday. I'm embarrassed to say how many times I've listened to the song Black Swans and Oxycontin in a row.

I should probably get off my dead ass and rip the CD for upload.

Got the new Phosphorescent album and it's magnificent. One of my AOTY contenders.

Latest Taylor Deupree album is fantastic and generally his label, 12k, is doing awesome things.

Although the new Giuseppe Ielasi, 'Tools' is all about each track being made from only one sound source (a rubber band, polystyrene box, etc.) and it makes it sound like this is a really novel thing to do when e.g. Matmos did it 11 years ago? And it didn't seem very inventive then either.

Still, fucking whatever, it sounds great.
