    Album's out on Friday. I intend no hyperbole when I say that I'm expecting it to be one of the best albums ever made.

    The look of that woman/msuic video reminded me of this classic

    She's in my shameful lustage thread. Newsom could write me to orgasm tbh.

    Still a pretentious whore.

    @dino - woof! Those two songs sounds amazing. I haven't listened to much of Newsom's stuff apart from Have One On Me. Will definitely be checking Divers out.

    Can I just say F.F.S are the biggest disgrace of a band going, but their new stupid song Police Encounters is horribly catchy.

    Bam bam diddy diddy bam bam diddy diddy bam bam diddy diddy POLICE ENCOUNTERS.

    The Joanna Newsom stuff sounds great.

    You lot heard EL VY?

    It's got Matt Beringer from The National in it. Bit more poppy/dance-y than their stuff:

    I'm going in February and it was only £30. At the Hydro though so that'll sap most of the enjoyment from it.

    Nice. Is the overall sound similar to those 2 songs? I can't get Sapokanikan out of my head.

    I suppose. It's pretty varied; there are some really baroque-y bits, strings like off Ys, animal noises, and even some hints of a synthesizer.

    It gets better with every listen. Anecdotes is song of the year/decade.

    I just bought it. I've only listened to the stream so far, so differentiating between the tracks has been difficult, but as an overall piece of music it's incredible. I'm surprised Pitchfork only gave it an 8.5.

    It's on non-stop repeat for me at the minute. The last two verses in Anecdotes are so good.

    Do you think it's her best, or too early to say?

    I don't think it's quite as good as Ys, but I think I prefer it to Have One on Me.

    The "Amora Obscura" bit of A Pin, Light Bent is probably my favourite bit, I kind of wish the album ended there. The actual ending is great, but the first half of Time, As a Symptom seems a little cheesy and overdone to me. And I think that's my only gripe.

    Seeing her next week.

    Any of you shithouses in to the Sleaford Mods? I'd heard 'No-one's Bothered' on the radio a few weeks ago but I saw them on Jools and they were fuckin' awesome.

    I can't get past the lead singer/whatever guy. I think I just hate anything to do with mods as a rule.

    Divers has grown on me a lot, it's really beautiful and so singular once you adjust to her voice and the harp. I do think that if you took the first three songs and the last three songs, plus The Things I Say and possibly Divers, it would be a much stronger album, the rest just seem like filler. But that's not much of a complaint as I can just skip through. The beginning three are just incredible and A Pin-Light Bend is so good as well, it reminds me a bit of this:

    Yeah this thread is pretty much all indie that's fair, but a little bit of bass-heavy house isn't a bad thing every now and again. This track is unique as fuck, haven't heard much like it before.

    Goose Eggs and Same Old Man are the only 4* tracks in my library. I love You Will Not Take My Heart Alive and Waltz Of The 101st Lightborne Elite. Fantastic album.

    Listening to the first album I had which I listened to so much that I knew the lyrics to every song on it:



    Can still sing along to all of it

    Amazing tune, just ran it through my proper speakers and the bass is KILLAH.

    Best thing is the dumb ass is facing 25 years in jail as this video is basically a testimony.

    Still not listening to much other than Divers. Track ratings:

    Anecdotes - 10
    Sapokanikan - 9
    Leaving the City - 8
    Goose Eggs - 9
    Waltz of the 101st Lightborne Elite - 10
    The Things I say - 8
    Divers - 9
    Same Old Man - 8
    You Will Not Take My Heart Alive - 9
    A Pin, Light Bent - 10
    Time, as a Sympton - 9

    The two short tracks work really well on the album, I just wouldn't listen to them on repeat like some of the others.

    Saw her live a couple of weeks ago. Incredible, obv. Main complaint was the same as last time I saw her; percussion and other bits being too loud in the mix at parts. Kind of spoiled Divers, and the stripped back version of Leaving the City posted above is better than with the slide guitar and moog bits incorporated.

    Goose Eggs was a big highlight, she sounds incredible on it. Only show on the tour to get a Sawdust and Diamonds encore as well. :meep:

    For me Waltz of the 101st Lightborne Elite is by far the weakest on the album. The Things I Say is still the one that's been most in my head recently, even if it's the same melody over and over.

    Her breasts look delightful in the video for Divers. Don't get the fuss though. She's just a pretentious poet who can play the harp and sounds like an old woman.

    Confirmed today that they are headlining Coachella this year. I imagine they'll do at least one UK festival as well. I can't be arsed with that so hopefully there's a standalone tour on top.

    Fingers crossed for it to be Glastonbury. Wouldn't be surprised if it was Bestival like Outkast did in 2014.

    I know almost nothing about David Bowie (I've nothing against the guy at all, I've just never properly listened to him for some reason) but I've taken a punt on his new album and I really like it.

    There's some on there which is more dance-y, but it's got Alela Diane on there, who's kinda folk/indie:



    EDIT: she's on Rough Trade, who are about as indie as it gets...

    Enjoyed giving The Futureheads' first album a listen today. It's aged pretty well compared to some of the tat from that era.

    Nostalgia.

    I did the same thing the other day. I listened the fuck out of that album, often as an accompaniment to grinding for levels on runescape. I was such a cool 14 year old.

    Decent Days and Nights is a hell of a tune.
