Hmmm if we're naming great metal bands of the past decade I think we should drop Deafheaven too even though they only have two albums and one is only decent (while the other is incredible)

Frownland 05-20-2015 09:13 AM

Oh I had forgot about Sunn O))). I mean ****ing Sunn O))) man. There's no way Machine Head can top them.

YorkeDaddy 05-20-2015 09:15 AM

I dig me some Sun O))) but they're kind of different enough genres that it's hard to compare them for me at least

Listening to it now, and after 8 minutes in, I'm liking it. They convey a sort of "falling endlessly" feeling.

Still, as far as best metal goes (modern and otherwise), Sunn O)))'s probably my favourite.

I love Sacred White Noise, one of my favourite albums of last year. I hear where you're coming from with the falling endlessly, but I'd describe it more as being lost in a haunted house of mirrors.

Weedeater - Goliathon

Weedeater's latest album where they do their thing and their thing rules.

Amazing drone album from a buddy of mine. This is one of his sleepier albums I guess you could say, but it's a very fine experience that a whole bunch of you would enjoy

I'm digging the cover so I may listen to it for that reason alone.

Loving this a lot after it was posted in the concept albums thread. Reminds me a lot of Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots except maybe even better! Not sure yet but I'll be spinning this several more times in the next few days.

Frownland 05-25-2015 04:08 PM

Love The Mollusk quite a bit, it's got some of my favourite standout Ween tracks. I like Godweensatan quite a bit too, mostly because it's so much more raw than the rest of their discography.

I'll definitely be moving onto the rest of their discography. Usually when I get into a band like this it's because of one really good album that I have to spam and digest for like two weeks before I get the rest of their albums though :P

Josef K 05-25-2015 08:03 PM

My favorite of theirs has always been White Pepper. Just in case anyone was wondering.

sidewinder 05-26-2015 01:21 PM

The Mollusk is where it's at, but you really can't go wrong unless it's La Cucaracha.

Titus Andronicus - The Monitor

I've mostly listened to the Airing Of Grievances and Local Business especially, always putting this record on the back burner but God damn if this isn't the best Titus Andronicus record. Top 5 Favorite bands, right here.

YorkeDaddy 05-26-2015 05:27 PM

Yeah if the rest of Ween's discography is anywhere near as good as this I'm in for a great month or so of spamming their stuff until I need to move to something else

I've listened to The Mollusk front to back I think 10-15 times in the past three days, I think I'm obsessed a little bit

TrioVD - Maze

This album's a weird fusion of math rock, electronic, avant-prog, free jazz, sludge, classical, and a bunch of other styles. It sounds like the lovechild of Zu and Zs, but still very much its own breed.

Has anyone listened to Multi-Love by UMO yet? I think it's ****ing superb. A lot of funk and soul influences. 'Necessary Evil' is easily my favourite song right now.

John Cage - Sonatas and Interludes for Prepared Piano

If only this album (or any of his prepared piano recordings) were as well known as 4'33".

Goofle 05-27-2015 05:30 PM



Posted about this a while back, but I've been enjoying it ever since. Absolutely love this approach to vaporwave/future funk.

Paul Lansky - Homebrew (1992)

Oh man that's good. Some of the best electronic music I've heard in a while tbh.

Paul Lanksy is really incredible! His other albums are also brilliant.

In Colour by Jamie xx

my cat is now sitting on the speakers trying to get that bass for herself

Acid Eater - Black Fuzz on Wheels (2010)

Really epic noisy garage rock beast.

^ arguably the best rendition of the song that I've ever "heard"

Strangely enough, it sounds exactly like the Ufomammut song I was listening to right before beginning your post.

Now imagine if ****ty jokes about prepared pianos were the norm.

YorkeDaddy 05-30-2015 11:35 PM

Those are not comparable

Been hugely digging on this blackhandpath mixtape that Goofle posted a while ago.

The Pop Group - Y

I've been spinning this album quite a bit ever since Citizen Zombie came out. Some of the wildest, sporadic, you-took-too-much-acid post punk you'll ever hear that doesn't self-identify as no wave. The fantastic vocals really make it for me, but literally everything else about this album helps me love it.

I enjoyed Citizen Zombie. My first foray into post-punk?, and I loved it. I'll give this album a go as well. Is there any essential post-punk albums I should check out?

Goofle 06-01-2015 05:51 PM

There's literally too many.

As per: https://rateyourmusic.com/collection...s.rd/post-punk

Glad you liked it man, but be warned that Y sounds like an entirely different band than TPG's sound on Cotizen Zombie. Like Goof said, there's tons and tons and tons of great post punk out there and that list looks pretty good. Here are a few of my favourites:

This Heat - Deceit
Gang of Four - Entertainment!
The Fall - Hex Enduction Hour
Public Image Ltd. - First Issue
The Birthday Party - Prayers on Fire
Glenn Branca - The Ascension

Joy Division's Unknown Pleasures is a classic too. I'm not too crazy about it myself but it's worth checking out.

Sun Kil Moon - Universal Themes

I was nervous going into this. Didn't have real big expectations (although I'm not sure why tbh.) A lot of Benji's high-points resonated well with me, yet some of the other tracks wore off their appeal after awhile. With this album however, my fears were struck down and my expectations were toppled. This is the ****. It's still fresh to me with a lot to swallow, but I'm lovin' it. It's an appropriate evolution for Benji 2 and I'm consistently digging these styles. Once It's more established in my mind I'm hoping I'll love some of these as much as Carissa, Truck Driver, Jim Wise, I Watched the Film the Song Remains the Same, Richard Ramirez Died Today of Natural Causes and Micheline.

This year I think is definitely crushing 2014 for me. There's still a lot to come and some unconfirmed hopefuls.

JOANNA NEWSOM WHEN.

Plainview 06-02-2015 05:35 AM

This is still one of the best albums ever as far as I'm concerned.

Also:
Surf by Donnie Trumpet and the Social Experiment is actually really very good.
