Bright Eyes - Five Dice, All Threes (September 20, 2024) • Page 14

What is veggiecore? Is it like hardcore but vegan or something?

 

the album is out today

 

Loving this a lot.

 

“You were beautiful before and then you weren’t”

 

Last verse of Hate is golden.

“the artificial poets from the future are here”

 

this is pretty good, sort of predictable. sometimes I wonder if he's pigeonholed himself

 

I mean, he has. He doesn't write like he used but this is still very good.

 

yeah I like this but its def not rewriting their book or whatever and thats OK

 

this is good and fine, nothing really blew me away on first listen. Really like El Capitan. will definitely give it some more listens this weekend.

 

As someone that has a visceral reaction to poorly explained card games, that intro track is a one and done play for me lol.

Enjoying the rest so far, I don't listen to much music like this anymore

 

my favs are Bas Jan Ader, Trains Still Run on Time, and The Time I Have Left. hated Hate

the Scorcese line in the closer is a total miss

 

I'm the opposite. I like every clip of dialogue they weaved into this

 

i always like the spoken word/dialogue portions of these albums. they're always done very well.

 

it's not a card game

 

loving the old timey interlude stuff. i think my early favorites are hate, all threes and trains still run on time. i don't think this hits the highs he hit on weeds but that's fine.

 

ok yeah the Scorcese line is dumb but the closer absolutely hits. what does conor have against marty and the mets???

 

bas jan ader and real feel 105 are my favorites.
find it as a whole pretty underwhelming. doesn't come close to down in the weeds.

 

This is better than the last one (which I do enjoy a bunch)

 

this feels a little bit looser and lighter than the last which gives it a really fun quality to me. I really like it a lot.

 

This changes everything, thank you!!!

 

glad to help

 

This and the new Cursive album seem to have lots of similar themes. Lots of middle age doom vibes. Reminds me of the Ugly Organ/Wide Awake & Digital Ash era. I’m liking it.

 

Saw them in STL in 2022 and the music was great, Conor’s singing actually sounded really good. But he was fucked up and awkwardly rambled between songs in a way that like, makes you kind of stare at the ground and hope it ends soon. Seems things have devolved since then but a couple years ago I was actually impressed with how good the music was given the hoopla about Conor’s demeanor etc

 

this is my take from seeing BE back to back on that tour in Seattle and Portland.
