Jeff Rosenstock - POST- (January 1st, 2018) Album • Page 9

Jeff Rosenstock

He's on Going Off Track this week

 

easily top three favorite songs for me. love that song so much.

 

Really hard to keep it at 50. Such an impressive discography. This is all chronological

Runner ups: I'm Too Cool For Music, Stand There Until You're Sober, Get Warmer, Even Winning Feels Bad, I'm Terrofied, This Is A Singalong, Can't Complain, 80's Through The 50's and anything on Worry

 

Even though it was the album that got me into BTMI, I've often viewed Get Warmer as a rather straightforward, almost inconsequential record. Listening in full for the first time in forever, it seems to be a pretty clear turning point in terms of Jeff's songwriting structure. Moving away from the chaotic nature of the first three while still maintaining the bits and pieces of experimental flourishes that make his albums so special.

 

Jeff Rosenstock Made the First Great Album of 2018

 

Hm weird, us Brits don't have Get Warmer on Spotify yet you Americans do. COUNTRYIST!

I agree I think everything from that record on is basically perfect

 

Is there a general thread for Jeff? W/e I just noticed that BTMI! Campaign for a Better Next Weekend borrows some of the melody of Following Through by the Dismemberment Plan and I really enjoy the idea that Jeff was also trying to make his own "night record" the way they did by calling back to them like that. Anyway.

 

I heard 9/10 in a fucking Starbucks today. Is Jeff officially not cool any more?

 

Dumb Jeff Rosenstock Standards

 

is this a typo erik

 

It was a Dumb Starbucks joke, poorly executed :(

 

Yeah, Worry fucking rules still

 

I’m one of those people that didn’t get into him until Worry. I even went to a show of his prior to it and just left before he went on.

I was always aware of him because my younger brother was a huge BTMI fan. I think I tried to listen to Album Minus The Band and it just didn’t click. I’ve always respected the idea but just figured it wasn’t for me. I really wish I had been more into it at the time as he’s quickly become one of my favorite musicians.

 

I got into Jeff from WORRY.

 

Still can't stop listening to this

 

Live on Stereogum

 

About 10 years ago was when I got into BTMI and my intro was To Leave or Die in LI but soon after I fell in love with Get Warmer as his first proper great album from start to finish. I think in part, from what I understand, it's based on and written during his year of living in Athens, Georgia. Couple years ago Jeff did that Rank Your Albums and he put Vacation as his favorite, which was kind of surprising he'd list his final as the best as it just recently came out. But in retrospect I've been coming around on Vacation and kinda view that and Get Warmer as a tie for favorite.

 

This album is a blast. The thrilling thing about his music is never knowing which way a song might pivot. In the middle of a gnarly rock song he can pivot to sugar hooks or anthem choruses and back again on a dime.

 

My friend sent me he Spotify link to Post- and I liked it. Though I've been listening to BTMI non-stop alone at the office for the past 2 hours. I never even knew about this dude before now.

 

Boy are you in for a treat.

 

If anyone ever sees a "Teenager" 7" for sale let me know!

 

First thing I've listened to by him. This is great.

 

how could you spend so much time on these forums and not?
