Not read the thread at all. Finally given this a spin or four and absolutely love it! Reminds me a bit of Big Star… if not them just all the good fun stuff from the early 70’s, big
watch this it’s amazing and is only available until Tuesday
Todd Rundgren!!!
Very up for this
Love how anyone from Big Star is involved in some way. First band I thought of as an influence when I heard Lemon Twigs debut
From last night’s 'Later… ’
Couldn’t really get along with Go To School, TBH. It’s such an odd mix of 70s homage at its best and Of Montreal at their worst (and by that I mean the stuff they released after hissing fauna…). I’ll be one moment and then full the next.
i don’t get it, they sound like the house band at a really shit pub
This album has totally not hit the mark for me. First album is ridiculously great though
Interesting, not heard them before Jools
First album is gold. New one is hit and miss. 80% miss though
Probably the peak moment so far
They keep switching line ups which is odd; neither the girl on bass (who is in this clip) nor their original drummer (who’s not) seem to be involved anymore.
Yeah this, love the first record, so much fun. New one ain’t doing a lot for me. Always great live though
Haven’t heard the first one but this new one is pretty much the worst thing I’ve listened to all year. The only vaguely comparable thing I can think of is that Sack Trick album about penguins on the moon. Just awful.
Twitter, after the longer Jools show last night was 50/50 ‘worst thing ever’ to ‘OMG this is fantastic’. A good sign for the future, a lot of great bands divide people early on.
I have to say I dunno why they seem to wind certain folk up so much.
Still baffling why DIS don’t quite seem to warm to these guys.
Anyway…
gave the new album it’s first spin last night, enjoyed it on first listen, certainly stood out a lot more than the 2nd record.
