American Pleasure Club - A Whole Fucking Lifetime Of This (February 16, 2018) Album • Page 3

We Were Teen Suicide

 

im finally listening to this, im about half way through and feeling this. it feels like the last album was just condensed to be a little less messy, but also generally more optimistic than the last one too. this isn't what i expected (i didn't listen to the singles) but i enjoy it a lot so far

 

Good post until he undermined his entire essay with the final sentence

 

i feel like that was just an ironic and tongue in cheek nod to his reflexive habit of undermining the shit he cares about -- sam has pretty regularly over the years talked about how he isn't a fan of his own sincerity bc he isn't sure why he should feel self important enough to think his thoughts matter, but i get what you mean too. don't think it undermines the whole essay though

 

i like this album significantly more than anything else he's released

 

This is beautiful

 

what a great article

also what a fucking amazing record

 

About to give this a try. Anyone who knows my taste, think I will like it?

 

I hear this as being the new generations bright eyes. Maybe I’m off, but just the vibe I get

 

been listening to this so much. Beautiful acoustic tracks, diy rock shit, weird synths, a fucking jungle tune... Sam threw everything at the wall and somehow it works

 

Do you like it? I can see you saying it's good but not to your tastes all the time

 

I can understand the comparison

 

Yea, that’s close to how I feel ha

 

well fuck guess i gotta check this out

 

For anyone that’s new to Sam’s work, the Julia Brown records are essential. His best work, especially the first one (though I’ve not heard this yet).

 

As someone who has had their car stolen, yes I would

 

Ricky eat acid is his best work by far imo but that's way more my style than his other stuff

 

library is the only song i still listen to by him

 

REA is sick too, that track that samples Drake is one of the best. I think he found a really organic mix of the REA style and the more indie rock or w/e style of his other work on the last JB record.

 

Oh do you and Sam have beef?

 

i was just saying that song was good!!!

 

I'm crying from laughter omg

 

From what I’ve seen of yr posts yr gonna be all about this

 

I dont really hear bright eyes but there are some real shoegazy moments on this album. Not a fan of everything on this but when it gets good, its really good. I liked the last album but this one feels more concise, more fully realized.

 

i didnt mean it sounded like bright eyes, i meant more this could be the next generations bright eyes, like the indie band that sort of really grabs a hold of an audience and gains a cult following
