On Spotify here thankfully - another corker from the lads!

Intrigued by the new Avery. I quite liked the first, but wasn’t amazing.

Someone on Twitter described the first as a ‘paradigm shift’ or something. Not sure how many albums he’s actually heard.

Thanks @Pale-eyedBadger. I didn’t know about this, but have now just listened and it is indeed a lovely thing. As is this thread!

I’m not into that kind of music usually, but a very strong entry. It gets more intense in the second part of the album, which I liked. I’m going to play it again today I think.

This is really great so far. Thanks for the recommendation!

The Daniel Avery album is excellent, definite early Aphex/Autechre vibes :grinning:

Somehow got Wye Oak and Weyes Blood mixed up in my head, so was a bit confused/disappointed with that one :upside_down_face:

Well, tomorrow is almost upon us, but that’s for another thread. Some great records out last week, and I appreciate everyone’s suggestions above. However, I’d particularly like to thank @rich-t for directing me towards Fenne Lily (how was the gig @BMS1?), and @Pale-eyedBadger for the skinny on the Colorist Orchestra & Lisa Hannigan’s EP. Both wonderful records. I am also guiltily enjoying Tom Misch’s Geography (whilst wearing my beige slacks and sipping my warm water, obvs.) - not mentioned above, and possibly not a record that hits the prime DiS constituency. (Actually, I am increasingly worried I am going a bit MOR-ish …).

In all fairness, I’ve not listened to it yet. Spending too much time with Hop Along and No Thank You

#82

You should! Really. For me, Hop Along hasn’t really clicked. But I will try No Thank You right now. I know it got a mention above, but I don’t think i got around to listening to that one.

#83

What’s your fav from the Hop Along album? Prior Things and the back half of Abel gets me every time.

#84

You are welcome! The first I knew about it was when a track popped up in my release reader on Spotify.

#85

Yer man from No Age mentioned these at the gig in Bristol recently.

#86

I saw Fenne Lily at The Moth Club. Good performance. She’s a cut above those in her genre.

That was my “review” on the Last Night’s Gig Was thread. Good gig. I enjoyed it. I work about 10 minutes walk from The Moth Club and so it was a nice finish to a long day at work. Not sure if I’d necessarily see she again though but enjoyed Tuesday’s gig.

I’m really liking this album, I’m glad I gave it a shot… I’m not familiar at all with the members’ other bands (though I remember hearing and liking one Frightened Rabbit album years ago, not sure why I never continued with them) - I guess I’ll have to add Frightened Rabbit, Minor Victories, and Editors to my to listen list.

I haven’t settled on a favorite yet but today “Old Team” has delivered.

#88

Agreed, it’s a great record. Getting better and better.
The Minor Victories album from last year (possibly year before) is also very good. It has Rachel Goswell from Slowdive on vocals. I also love Editors; they have quite a back catalogue now, including a new album released a few weeks ago.

This is brilliant, cheers!

I love the Teen Creeps album actually, can’t believe this hasn’t been mentioned more!

Yup. It’s really good fun. Can see it being my holiday soundtrack next week.

Midas Falls released a new album on Friday, it’s a mix of electronics, post rock and shoegazing.
The singer reminds me of Tori Amos and it’s brilliant.

Seriously, I’ve been trying to ween myself of post rock and then 3 great albums get released in one day :confused:

#93

this is really good isn’t it? I get a seafood vibe off it!
