Hopefully he's completely over that terrible vocal inflection that made even the few good tracks on Album difficult to enjoy.

Pains of Being Pure at Heart were incredible last night. They played at this little all-ages venue/teen center in Seattle to about 150 people. They even played Kurt Cobain's Cardigan, which the band apparently only plays here in Seattle. Did a mixture of the S/T LP, Higher than the Stars EP, along with Say No To Love and three songs off the new album. Bought myself a sweet Pains shirt with a unicorn on it, the lead singer sold it to me.

The opening band, Weekend, were realllly good. Think shoegaze with super sick heavy basslines. Their debut album on Slumberland comes out on Tuesday, but they were selling it at the show.

I've been reading cool things about Weekend before you mentioned them. I'ma have to check them out.

The new Bruce Springsteen album of "throwaways" from the Darkness on the Edge of Town sessions is pretty fucking incredible.

I watched the documentary about Darkness on the Edge of Town on HBO a few weeks ago and was just amazed at how much quality songs Bruce had to bring to the table for those recordings. Somewhere near 70 fucking songs. Good lord.

Mr. Gundam · « **Reply #2950 on:** November 07, 2010, 02:16:14 PM »

Saw Stars again last night. Great fucking show. Amy Milan is totally preggers. They brought out a bench for her to sit on for a few songs.

Listening to Cee Lo's album

So far it's a mixture of some really great songs and others that sound like standard attempts to make a vintage sounding pop song - alright to good, but kinda forgettable. Production wise I think Sharon Jones & The Dap Kings is more consistent on that front.

but damn, when the songs rock they really rock

Yeah, I found a copy of that album for $3 at a used bookstore in middle-of-nowhere bumblefuck Maryland. Really surprised as to how well it held up, very ahead of its time... IIRC it was the first album built entirely from samples.

This is what I'm listening to now. Really awesome 80's type sound:

best coast

one of the worst things about this year. listened to the album once and thought it was aight, but her style of songwriting is so fucking awful and the fact she's getting so much praise is just sickening.

Robo · « **Reply #2960 on:** November 11, 2010, 12:34:31 AM »

I love the hell out of that Best Coast album. I find her hopeless and pathetic longing for love and attention sort of endearing, even if it is absolutely calculated -- it's exactly the sort of thing hopeless and pathetic nerds construct wish fulfillment fantasies from, and are powerless to resist swooning over. I fell for it, and can live with that, but only because she also knows how to write pretty good surf pop tunes to go along with it.

Phoenix Dark · « **Reply #2961 on:** November 11, 2010, 12:41:37 AM »

I just listened to her song "Boyfriend." Sounds like a hipster Taylor Swift

Robo · « **Reply #2962 on:** November 11, 2010, 12:50:59 AM »

If it wasn't soaked in reverb, it would probably sound nearly indistinguishable from a Taylor Swift track. That's the worst song on the album, though.

TEEEPO · « **Reply #2963 on:** November 11, 2010, 02:27:55 AM »

best coast knows actually who's she's catering too and doesn't try to sell her self as being anything more than what she is, so she's okay in my books.

it was a great summer album to have on repeat.

I didn't even know what this was and then I looked it up and heard "Sun Was High (So Was I)". Listening to the whole album now.

Best Coast is best

EDIT: Sounds like Jenny Lewis in lo-fi. I like it.

Same. The production is consistently outrageous - I hate to say it, but the guy is practically on an entirely different level at this point - and nearly every track has a hook worth selling your soul for. Shit is the real deal.

I enjoy several tracks on that album for sure. It's incredibly shallow, but fun all the same.

I still like Best Coast. Nothing fantastic or anything, but I think it was pretty good summer fluff.

I'm not really contradicting myself – it can] be a fun album, but I just got insanely tired with that sort of songwriting this summer, what with the Best Coast album and the Wavves one as well. It's welcome to me for a few weeks but that's about it.

Wait wait wait, before I waste my time on this, this is coming from someone who acknowledges that everything Kanye did past Late Registration was either forgettable or awful, correct? Is this new album like a comeback? I want to believe Kanye is good again.

I hate to once again be the voice of dissent, but I'm severely disappointed by Kanye's new album. I don't want to go too far into it and just curse myself, but at first listen, I'm not impressed at all.

J. Cole's album on the other hand...
