I'll give it a go. He seems to be in a good creative space right now. There was a few crackers on the last Ride record, his first solo record was better than I expected & I've enjoyed his electronic Glok moniker.
Not expecting much & a double Andy Bell record is a little scary, but fair play. Nice to see he's got the creative itch again.

Yep, first song is a backwards sounding mess, which sounded dated by the mid 90s. This can only improve

Ok, well crafted and varied enough for keeping more or less the interest for the fucking long runtime. But come on, was it necessary?

Yeah, wasn't worth the effort I put in.

The new Big Thief album out today is marvellous.
A 20 song behemoth, but it doesn't outstay it's welcome. Some new ground explored (inlcuding a couple of country tunes which should sound naff, but after a couple of listens are actually great), but still distinctively Big Thief.
I loved the last 3 albums, but this is another step up for. First album i've fallen in love with this year.

Hey Steve, you're the kind of guy that still enjoys fingering his bumhole to the pains of being pure at heart right? If so, I think you might like Kids On A Crime Spree's album. KARL NOW WE ARE TALKING - fuzzy/pop on Slumberland Records. I might have just came. THIS IS SOUNDING GREAT.

Big Thief and Beach House, which are 2 meh bands with a pretty narrow sound palette releasing double albums too sounds a bit like hell (heaven for big fans obvs). I'll give them a listen because they hit quite nice spots here and there but come ooooon

I'm really liking the Beach House album (thought that was it until recently when I found out part 4 was due this month). I guess if you're going to do an album that long then releasing it in 4 separate parts over a few months is one way to go about it.

I don't get Big Thief. I listened to the new record this morning, It's perfectly fine I guess? Though that is pretty much my reaction to any of their material I've heard.
I'd never heard a single song from Spoon until this morning. I decided to try their new record, I've no idea if this is a reflection of what they usually sound like, but needless to say it was one of the most offensively gutless pieces of shit I've heard in a very long time & I won't be ever hearing a note from them again.
I'm not sure I've ever heard Beach House, will give the new one a go as their headlining green man.

edit: RYM tells me I listened to an album in 2015 and gave it 3 stars. I remember nothing of this.

KARL NOW WE ARE TALKING - fuzzy/pop on Slumberland Records. I might have just came. THIS IS SOUNDING GREAT. It sounded reet up your street. Check out Artsick too. Album came out the same day on the label, think it features a member of Kids on a crime spree too.

I suppose JP will be in straight in here to claim he found them first, like when Moz discovered the pains of being pure at heart.
