1·1 year agoOoo thanks for the heads up. I liked their previous album.
Slint’s 1991 album Spiderland is one of my favorite albums ever. They haven’t done anything since and I have no idea what those guys are up to but I’d definitely be intrigued if they popped up again
Outkast is one of my favorite hip hop artists and I would definitely be excited if they decided to do something together again.
I can’t argue against this. It’s an excellent album
FYI I see a typo on the short list. Frankie and the Witch Fingers. (Awesome band by the way)
Awesome picture! And I love how you transformed it for your album art
I only listened to a few songs but I like what I hear so far! I’ll listen to more later. A couple of questions first…
What song(s) are you most proud of?
Did you make your own album art? It’s really cool.
I haven’t gotten to this one yet but it sounds apppealing. It’s on my list of things to check out to this week
Enjoying my Sunday morning coffee with Sonic Youth’s Daydream Nation!
Thanks to Polydextrous@lemmy.world for reminding me of this awesome album!
Here’s a song I like from 1992!
Honorable mention: all of Aphex Twin’s Selected Ambient Works 85-92
It’s my turn to post an R.E.M song! Also not a duet but that’s okay.
When I was a kid my sister bet me that I couldn’t memorize all the lyrics to this song… I proved her wrong! And I still remember most of it!
🎶 It’s the end of the world as we know it! 🎶
It was actually their 2013 tour when I saw them. So two years after this video. I was thinking it was earlier than that. I saw them at a small venue called Akron Musica in Akron, Ohio, USA.
I saw them live probably around the time this video was made! It was really cool to see them do their thing with the loop pedals.
Yes. The fast-paced vocals work perfectly for the bluegrass style
Very cool. I like hearing that bassline on an upright bass
Oh man. This is excellent.
Here is a cover of Taylor Swift’s Love Story by black midi. Their bassist who doesn’t often perform vocals sings here. And they added a saxophone solo!
I’m going to talk about some serious stuff here so move along if you were trying to keep things light today.
Scott Hutchinson from Frightened Rabbit died by suicide in 2018. Throughout his music Scott often talked about anxiety and depression and suicide. I highly recommend Frightened Rabbits 2008 album The Midnight Organ Fight. I want to link every song from that album but I’ll limit it to just 3.
The Modern Leper - Frightened Rabbit
In this song he compares anxiety and depression to leprosy and asks the question to his significant other why would you love a modern leper? Are you a masochist?
Scott often said that he openly wrote and sang about his illness hoping that it would help someone else.
Head Rolls Off - Frightened Rabbit
In this song you’ll hear the lyrics “when my blood stops someone else’s will not” and “while I’m alive I’ll make tiny changes to Earth” indicating his desire to help others by sharing his feelings and his pain.
Floating in the Forth - Frightened Rabbit
In this song you’ll hear him ask the question “is there peace beneath the roar of the Forth road bridge?” and then make the somewhat hopeful statement “I think I’ll save suicide for another year.”
His body was found near the shores beneath the Forth road bridge near Edinburgh. Making this song so much more powerful knowing that he predetermined his death more than 10 years in advance and those thoughts were constantly with him.
