Agree with everyone else - this is a great albumAfter one spin I can say without reservation that this is my favorite Sturgill Simpson album.

I love Menzingers and was looking forward to adding Hello Exile to my personal AoTY short list... but it is pretty much a hot mess. I am not an audiophile, but the mix is so bad I don't even want to listen to it. I had Friday off with a hike planned... I listened to the album on the drive there, and was pretty down before I started my hike - lolTried to listen to the new Menzingers and the new Sturgill Simpson, and didn't make it through two full songs for either.
They're still not landing with me but she certainly leaves it all at the tiny deskI legit got chills at one point in every song during the Charly Bliss Tiny Desk Concert - they absolutely KILLED Young Enough (2nd song). I am going to have a hart time not ranking this #1 on my AoTY year list at this point.
Big fan of the album but I find her a little hard to watch for some reason. She has a lot of energy but it feels like work.They're still not landing with me but she certainly leaves it all at the tiny desk
Oh she definitely taps into my dirty old man but I'm just not feeling the tunesBig fan of the album but I find her a little hard to watch for some reason. She has a lot of energy but it feels like work.
Just gave this record a listen - would have missed it otherwise - I think it's pretty fantastic considering it's coming from the bass player of Guns N Roses (and I'm a GnR fan). It's not what I would have expected at all and it really fits in with most of the new music that I gravitate towards.Shooter produced the latest Duff McKagan album that came out early this year. It's more country than rock 'n roll and the dark material suits Duff's voice.
I was going to make some snarky comment to this about PUP not being your number one but then I realized nostalgia and too many drunken listening album sessions mean it might not be my #1 either.I legit got chills at one point in every song during the Charly Bliss Tiny Desk Concert - they absolutely KILLED Young Enough (2nd song).

this is really, really good. I mentioned loving the original album which helps- but I love what a giant dog's done with the placeYou are correct, sir.*A Giant Dog?Just diving into BLack Dogs cover of the entire Neon Bible album. So far so good.
And it was a fun listen. One of my favorite albums from then, and still solid too to bottom. Loved hearing the tunes again for the first time in a while as reworked covers.
He/they are pretty consistent imo. All the more impressive considering they're putting out like 19 tracks a week.The last few tracks from GRMLN have been excellent.
It's pretty good--more rocking and less dreary than some of his other recent stuff.Mark Lanegan..
interest: piquedHaven't listened to the whole white reaper album, but something about the tunes I've heard so far that seems more pop/produced than I like...and Im sure they're going for that power pop sound, but not working for me yet.
It reminded me at times of Free Energy (who I can't believe were almost a decade ago)interest: piquedaven't listened to the whole white reaper album, but something about the tunes I've heard so far that seems more pop/produced than I like...and Im sure they're going for that power pop sound, but not working for me yet.
It's funny- a song came on at the end that I immediately playlisted...much more loose and garagey. Then realised it was from 2015.I'm listening now...I think you'll love it.interest: piqued
Same, though less schticky and with better songs.It reminded me at times of Free Energy (who I can't believe were almost a decade ago)
Driving and dreamy are apt descriptors. Really liked that song. The YouTube comments contextualized it a bit, too. Nice crescendo at about four minutes in.Eephus said:Corridor is a Montreal guitar band with a record on Sub Pop that manages to be both driving and dreamy. They sing their songs in French which might be a turn off for some but for me it adds a certain je ne sais quoi to their sound.

They were on my Google feed at lunch for some reason...hadnt heard of them and didn't check them out yet, but will now. Thanks for the heads-up!Eephus said:Corridor is a Montreal guitar band with a record on Sub Pop that manages to be both driving and dreamy.
