new music: the new new music coming out thread

[reebty]

Not that I should be surprised, but Neil Young has another album coming out. I haven't heard a note of Fork in the Road, but I bought Le Noise recently and for the first time in the decade and change that I've been listening to Young, I'm convinced that he really fucking nailed it for the first time since the 90s and it's not just that I want that to be the case.

I'm happy for Neil, but "solo electric guitar" is just never gonna turn me on, no matter how well it's done.

[reebty]

Not that I'm saying you should rethink that, but I was wary of the idea, too. I thought I'd want everything to either be acoustic (which a couple of them are) or have a rhythm section (and maybe they should), but to my surprise I ended up really liking it.

[ellaguru]

So I guess this is coming out sometime.

[Andrew_TSKS]

Oh man, what the FUCK.

[Good Intentions]

I have no idea what that could be like. Or why they'd do that.

[reebty]

Well, Lou's been a collaboration slut lately, so it fits in with that.

[reebty]

And there's no new Neil Young album. It's another archives thingy.

[Antero]

This new The-Dream-penned Beyoncé song, "Schoolin' Life," is cripplingly good.  Serious old school shit going on.  Good lord!

[Black Amnesia of Heaven]

all three target bonus tracks for that record completely rule

i get why they were not on the proper album (every other track on it cultivates this soft romantic assertion and none of the bonus tracks are remotely in that realm) and yet i do not get why they are not on the proper album (they completely rule).

[Ah_Pook]

New William Elliott Whitmore album out in a few days.



Very pleasant surprise. His last one was his first real misstep, but I'm optimistic about a return to form. I haven't done it yet, but you can stream the whole album at the above link.

William Elliott Whitmore comes from a small Iowa town on the coast of the Mississippi River...

Really?

[Thermofusion]

Now now, Jimbo. Coastal Iowa has been culturally underrepresented for some time.

Really?

maybe it's really wide at that point.

[Andrew_TSKS]

The Mississippi River forms the eastern border of the state of Iowa.

[Anne the Man]

New Carrie Brownstein and Janet Weiss project. Sounds pretty alright. Not Sleater-Kinney, but pretty alright.

[ellaguru]

Yeah, I was thinking that song on Pitchfork sounds like The Breeders to Sleater-Kinney's Pixies. Which is to say, still pretty good.

[jebreject]

The Mississippi River forms the eastern border of the state of Iowa.

Right, but I think the point is that "coast" refers to the sea. In this case, the OP actually means "shore."

[Andrew_TSKS]

Oh, I gotcha.

[Thermofusion]

Remind me again why we don't have a state called Atchafalaya?

[auto-da-fey]

on the Wisconsin/Minnesota border, we sometimes called it "the third coast," maybe it's a subtle allusion to the renowned La Crosse/tristate-area cultural underground.

[YojimboMonkey]

The Mississippi River forms the eastern border of the state of Iowa.

Having grown up in a town that could be said to be "on the banks of the Mississippi river," about 40 miles downstream from the southeastern tip of Iowa, I'm confident in saying that I am well aware of the river's position in relation to that state. 

on the Wisconsin/Minnesota border, we sometimes called it "the third coast," maybe it's a subtle allusion to the renowned La Crosse/tristate-area cultural underground.

Thought "third coast" mostly referred to the Great Lakes

Anyway I'm pretty sure rivers don't have coasts, is the thing.

[auto-da-fey]

Thought "third coast" mostly referred to the Great Lakes

yeah, maybe in--pshaw--eastern Wisconsin.

or maybe I just always misunderstood the phrase, that is entirely possible. even as a midwesterner, I can't always read midwestern humor; that damn Garrison Keillor just confounds me, and did Killdozer really think the pig was cool?
