2023 New Music Thread (1 Viewer)

Ryan Adams’ “Nebraska” released today. Much like his album “1989”, which was a cover of Taylor Swifts “1989” album - this is a complete cover of Springsteens “Nebraska” album.
 
The new Fireworks album dropped on New Years day, I like it... it's a little bit all over the place, but it is definitely scratching the new album itch I had. Not gonna lie... I thought this album was released a few years ago, but apparently the 'rona really, really messed that up. Check out: Jerking Off the Sky
 
Looks like a great year. Just from the first list I’m excited to hear new albums from:

Wild Nothing, Andy Shauf, Folk Implosion, Young Fathers , Shame, Nation of Language, Squid, Yo La Tengo, The Cure, PJ Harvey, Michael Stipe, The National, Peter Gabriel, My Bloody Valentine.

Is a new Squid album speculation? I haven’t read anything. Bight Green Field was one of my favorites last year although I was a year behind on it.

Not sure. It’s on the Stereogum list, though.
 
Belle and Sebastian new song, "I Don't Know What You See in Me" (described as a 90s power ballad :eek:) and new album, Late Developers, out Friday.
I kind of love this.

Big fan of Belle and Sebastien but would else would you expect from someone with a stupid avatar like mine. Best Scottish band after We Were Promised Jetpacks.
There was a goof-up on the track listing on Amazon where they posted the song titles from the upcoming The National album. So I guess The National will have tracks with Phoebe Bridgers, Sufjan Stevens and Taylor Swift.

I love WWPJ but no way are they better than B&S.

John Cale has new music coming out at the age of 80. Two songs dropped in October unbeknownst to me including a collaboration with Weyes Blood.

The song he released yesterday is Cale crooning over synths and beats. It's lovely and moody and sounds a bit like what The Blue Nile used to back in the 90s.

:shrug:

Wake me when God Help the Girl does something new.


Also, I'm lukewarm on Springsteen, but why would anyone remake Nebraska? I'm looking at you Ryan Adams.

When We Were Young Festival [October 21]

Most likely traveling for these three shows. My son is the one wanting to go to the When We Were Young Festival. Like I needed another reason to introduce him to Vegas.
 
I'm trying to be more organized this year. Albums I liked in January in no particular order.

Jose James - On & On Jazz singer James pays tribute to Erykah Badu by giving seven of her songs soulful jazzy arrangements. Badu is such an idiosyncratic artist so it's interesting to hear her tunes and poetry interpreted by someone else.

Complete Mountains Almanac - S/T The Dessner brothers join Swedish singer Rebekka Karijord for a lovely folky set of songs named after the months of the year.

XL LIFE - The Boogie Down South Welsh Punk band fronted by UK rapper Traxx who sings raps and shouts his heart out. It's kind of a weird combination but it works for me. RIYL: The Judgement Night soundtrack.

The Bad Ends - The Power and The Glory Athens, GA supergroup with Bill Berry of R.E.M. and John Neff of Drive-By Truckers. Nothing terribly original but the old pros do a fine job banging out songs reminiscent of the glory days of Southeastern Conference rock.

The Reytons - What's Rock and Roll? They still sound like fake tales of Arctic Monkeys circa 2007 but there's a lot of up tempo fun to be had once you get past the obvious similarities

F----d Up - One Day .They've never really been my thing but I like what's happening in the less screamy parts.

The Tubs - Dead Meat Sometimes they sound like the Buzzcocks, sometimes it's the Smiths. The singer reminds me of Richard Thompson. Reminder to me to listen to this one again.

I follow him on Twitter. Apparently people like the new stuff. I'll have to listen.

...and now for something old.

I've given up hope of Cale's Sabotage Live album ever coming to Spotify. Recorded live at CBGB in 1979 with a band of young downtown punks, it's like Cale's version of Rock 'n Roll Animal.

I’ve crossed paths with this before, likely per you. Will give a listen again.
