Saw Beach House last night on the first stop of their tour in Charlottesville, VA. The new album transitioned superbly live. Here's the setlist if anyone is interested:

Troublemaker
Other People
Norway
Walk in the Park
Wild
Lazuli
The Hours
Equal Mind
Silver Soul
New Year
Zebra
Wishes
Take Care
Myth

Turtle Island
10 Mile Stereo
Irene

My only gripe is that they didn't play more from their previous records. Only 1 song from Devotion. I was pulling for Tokyo Witch, hehe. Finally got Devotion on vinyl though, so that's a plus.

No way am I going to the show near me unless they are playing Master of None.
 
Not really feeling the new beach house album. I hate that their sound is getting louder and louder,sounds like an m82 album or something. Teenage dream was like this too but i thought it at least had better somgs. Gimme more of devotion!
 
Hm, I haven't done one of these in at least a month:

I had a four disc set(!) of CW rarities that got lost somewhere along the way a few years back. Should see if that stuff still bouncing around on slsk... Also, the lack of live videos on Youtube is disappointing, but then I remember that the band broke up before small-ish consumer camcorders (let alone smartphones) were really commonplace.
 
I love all of you that do album art + artist and song name + YouTube link. Bonus points for genre. I always get loads of new music from these threads, and this month has been spectacular so far.

Cosmic Bus really made it standard : )

Anyway I must say I'm experiencing the greatest of phenomenons with Daughn Gibson's All Hell, have you ever listened to an album from start to finish and instantly realized that it was destined to be in your top ten or your five favorite albums of all time list? This hasn't happened to be since I first heard Swans' White Light From The Mouth Of Infinity
 
Cool to see all the love for Money Store...haven't decided yet if I like it as much as Exmilitary, but it's really good. Also been listening to this:

dawn-richard-armor-on.jpg


Armor On EP by Dawn Richard. I guess she was in some Diddy-run girl group, but she's gone off on her own and doing some really good stuff. Video
 
Honeycomb sounds like something that could have been Sung Tongs or Feels :)

EDIT: and Gotham is also quite nice.

No, this is ridiculous. Honeycomb sounds like being dragged to a noisy carnival hungover and nothing like the two albums you mentioned aside from maybe Avey's vocals. If anything it's Strawberry Jam.

Hmm, was a while so I listened to any Animal Collective album so I guess could be wrong. The rhythm section struck me as being more in line with those two albums then Strawberry Jam and their last album, less beats and more live instruments.

It's definitely reminiscent of Strawberry Jam. Either way, both songs are great!
 
Skindred - Roots Rock Riot

Haven't listened to this record for years but for some reason it grabbed me today.
Especially addicted to the following song at the moment.

Skindred - Ratrace

I could party all night long...which I'll probably do anyway.

The Marvelous Dream

A bit impenetrable for me in most parts to be honest. Damon sounds incredible as always, though. Definitely a handful of great tracks on here.

As the soundtrack to an opera, I'm assuming it works best paired with the visuals of the show, but an interesting listen nonetheless.

I just saw them a few weeks ago in Ft Lauderdale. About 100 people were there. It turned into a really intimate show with Richard interacting with the crowd, talking to us and stuff. I managed to converse with him for about 20 minutes after the show. A really cool fucking guy and he's been clean for close to ten years.
 
Will someone else please love the new Daughn Gibson album even half as much as I do?

It actually didn't grab me much on first listen but now that I have had time to digest it, I really do love it. Unlike anything I've heard before and Gibson's voice is terrific. Amazing atmosphere too.

It definitely gets better after re-listening to it.
