posted this in the Doc thread... felt like it should get put in front of the music people too- I hadn't seen it before, and it's right in their musical sweet spot IMO...
a bunch of years before Stop Making Sense, RAI recorded the Talking Heads live in Italy (1980). if you like the Talking Heads, it's absolutely worth watching... all the same energy and joy as SMS, without any stage sets or costumes. Movie-wise, I wish they didn't just do closeups... I'd have loved to have seen the whole band play at once- especially with all that energy and joy on stage.

They didn't do themselves any favors by putting out so many songs. Or by being Jawbreaker-y while Jawbreaker was active. But, still better than almost all of the Jawbreaker-y bands that proceeded them.rockaction said:

I never got any of those bands in particular, though I was listening to Jets To Brazil the other day and quite liked it. "Speed on your breakfast plate," begins one of their songs. Interesting thought, that one.
I should probably revisit J Church and Dear You by Jawbreaker sometime. I remember a friend with an astute music mind (think he trained as an engineer at the Hartford Conservatory or something) was surprised I wasn't into any of those types of bands, really.
I also think it's interesting you're in a Facebook group. Homeowner's association?

It's a 90's punk/hc/emo group. Forget the exact title. I'm an old, man, fb is where we hang out.

The new album by Biffy Clyro, "A Celebration of Endings", just dropped today.
Gave it a listen on my walk with the dog and I was not disappointed. I see it being in contention for my AOTY pick.
Check it out!

KOMPROMAT by I LIKE TRAINS may be the perfect soundtrack for this ####ty, godforsaken year.

Really enjoy this one — already listened to Dying Breed an embarrassing number of times. Lots of fun.

Good times!
thought of you when they hit my RR today... IDLES-esque (which was a theme in my RR this week)
El Floppo
Footballguy
Jaysus
Good times!
I was working while it while it was on in the background and I did not note all of them, but I think it was some of these:
Dope Body
Alien Nosejob
USA Nails (I actually thought this one was IDELS)
Surfbort
Touche Amore
Inevitables
and the new Repalcements!
I really liked my RR this week... it was a little rappy, and I have no idea why John WIlliams is there every week, but this is the best one I have had in a while.
El Floppo
Footballguy
Thanks!
It's been giving me Surfbort, but none of the others. And it's fixated on giving me songs weekly from the dirty projectors latest thing, which is not so great. Also get some out there rap- japanese, russian, spanish language and uk grime.
Replacements?!! New, or backissue/rerelease?
I'll give the usa nails a go.

Touche Amore for the stalwarts, for the winners, for the Hogwarts, for the sinners.

Despite being squarely in my wheelhouse, the Flaming Lips never seem to land with me. This one is awesome.

Bumped his own thread (because I'm a loser, baby, and started it a while back) but Aesop Rock has a new track called "The Gates"
Jaysus
Good times!
True story: I just accidentally watched that video. No clue it was new.
ETA: it was bananas
rockaction
Footballguy
I actually haven't watched it all the way through. I posted it because I've listened to the song at least ten-fifteen times since Rhymesayers announced his album in my inbox yesterday. I'll have to check it out, then.
eta* indeed bananas. very cool, IMHO.

You might want to give The Soft Bulletin another listen. I agree that this new one is quite good. One of their best.
Ghost Rider
Footballguy
I haven't liked a Lips album since Embryonic, but the singles I've heard from the new one are good and I am reading many good things about it, so I will check it out. Wayne Coyne's voice is done (it was done the last time I saw them live 6-7 years ago), but they do enough studio magic with their trippy effects to hide it most of the time.
The Soft Bulletin through Embronic was a helluva run.

Yoshimi is my favourite Lips album.
Nigel Tufnel
Footballguy
I do like that one and Yoshimi but their output is so insane that they have a low percentage hit rate with me.
Buffaloes
Footballguy
it's their best imo. kind of came out of nowhere too considering they were a 1-hit wonder 90s band and they came with something with the sonic and thematic depth of Softest Bulletin

This one is pretty damn good, much tamer than there last few more experimental albums. That being said, Embryonic and The Terror do pair rather nicely with Ketamine.
