So, fellow DiSers, it is that time of the week - what have you got lined up for today?
For myself, I am looking forward to Paul de Jong’s follow up to If, You Fucken Sucker (any PdY/Books lovers on here?), then heading over to check out Daniel Avery’s Song for Alpha (I am sure there are a few DA aficionados on here), and then whatever the good folks on here post that sound particularly intriguing. (I will probably check out Eels new one too, but with very limited expectations.)
Hop Along
Unknown Mortal Orchestra
Hinds
Eels
Daniel Avery
Fenne Lily
Pompey (More Is Less EP)
Andrew Younker

Wye Oak
Goat Girl

Other than the first three these are all ‘got a good rating on Metacritic and seem like they might be interesting’.
Yup, PdY all lined up. The Books are one of my all time favourite bands, and I loved his last album. Be interesting to see where he goes with this one, sounds like it might be a lot weirder.
Oh also got Daniel Avery, Hop Along and Wye Oak scheduled in too. Bumper crop day!
yeah, I’m pretty keen to get involved on that album. I can’t remember much more than enjoying their last album, but have really enjoyed the lead singles for this one.
Lot of stuff already mentioned so I will just throw in the new album from The Amazing. The single has an early Sun Kil Moon vibe to it. Looking forward to it.
