Its similar yeah, more poppy or straightforward, but its really good if you liked the previous one. Its a really chill, moody record.

Potential late-career re-defining album coming from DBT this Friday -- "American Band." Song about the NRA, Ferguson, the confederate flag, Robin Williams' suicide, and other sunny subjects.
I listened to the NPR stream last week and while it doesn't match the highs of "Decoration Day" and "The Dirty South," it's better than anything they've done since Brighter Than Creation's Dark.

I listened to the Chook Race one and it was pretty great.
I seem to like Australian jangly pop a lot.

Preordered LP showed up a few days early. As expected, this is phenomenal.guestT wrote:I'm confident this is going to be the best album released this year. This guy rules.

Ok, I feel like I've said this a lot over the last few months, but I mean it this time. This might be the best album I've heard in 2016. A debut album with the maturity of late era Radiohead. Infectious hooks and lush, layered arrangements. The production has no business being this damn good. I couldn't even pick the best song to make a good first impression. I highly recommend this. Granted, I also like kung fu movies.

I am also going to repost this with my favorite (and the opening) track. Well polished garage rock with a strong 80's flavor.

I like the sound of this. And I have to admit that the album cover itself is...pleasing to me, which always piques an interest.Kaius wrote:I am also going to repost this with my favorite (and the opening) track. Well polished garage rock with a strong 80's flavor.

More new stuff from Mike Smith (I've posted about his synthesizer duo album Transcombobulation a few times in this thread), this time in the form of his new The Mike Smith Company band.
The debut album is called Famous Wildlife Movies and is out October 28 on Smith's All-Set! Editions label. It combines aspects of the Transcombobulation stuff with elements of Mike's old band, Muskox, and then adds a few dashes of Caribbean flavor to make a proggy space-jazz tropicalia stew (there's a word salad style for you).
The first three tracks can be currently streamed on Bandcamp:
(By the way, it's hard to properly compose a post in this thread right now because of VinylGuy's enormous Warpaint image.)

I've seen them live through the years and I was always impressed. But last year I saw them open for Alabama Shakes and they were really bad. Just all over the place - I was worried they were finished.

Not sure on how the whole album stands up yet, but this single tune is magnificent.
