Albums in Stores – Apr. 16th, 2021 • Page 2

Those three were the ones I'm most stoked about. :D

 

I thought you were most stoked about not listening to GVF.

 

Just put it on and would've thought the same thing. Digging this a lot.

 

The Kenny Mason record has my attention half way through. Hip hop with influence from... my bloody valentine? Going to spend time with it this weekend.

I listened to a few songs on the Holding Absence album and it's really not my thing - I find it cloying - but I imagine if you like that sound you'll love it.

I'm sure I used to like some of Charlie Simpson's solo stuff but these new singles are so fucking beige. Could have guessed most of the chorus melody two lines into the first verse on the new one.

 

RIYL new stuff:
Chain Gang Grave
The Armed
Cannibal Corpse
Spectral Wound
Bewitcher
Oh The Humanity!
Doused
Sorcerer

-
A lot of Singles:
Quicksand, A Pregnant Light, Crime In Stereo (first new song in years), Desaster, Fear Factory, Ghastly, Vreid, An Autumn For Crippled Children, Origami Angel, Pestilence, Solstice, Vukovi, Downhaul, Amends (ft. Laura Jane Grace), Chubby and the Gang, The Ember The Ash, Stormruler

 

Tried listening to:

The Armed - this wasn't for me...at all.

Holding Absence - skipped the intro and got through tracks 2 and 3, it's alright but I was bored listening to it.

Hail the Sun - I've enjoyed what I've heard of this record thus far. Stopped listening but only bc I wanted to sample a few other records still and have only limited time. RIYL: Circa Survive, Pierce the Veil etc

Escape the Fate - its funny this is being released the night Ronnie Radke is having his first big live concert / immersive experience he claims will be something never really done before. Solid first few tracks. Great for a workout.

August Burns Red - they've always been too screamy for my taste but they do it so well.

Amy Shark - her new track "Amy Shark" from her upcoming release is gorgeous.

 

Damn I wish it was new Jakob!!!

 

I'm loving the new Black Keys song. So bluesy and laid back.

 

New Ben Browning album (singer of Cut Copy)

 

This Hail the Sun album is a banger.

 

The Polyphonic Spree surprised me today with an album of covers:

Afflatus | The Polyphonic Spree (bandcamp.com)

 

One of the better release days so far this year
While She Sleeps-Great album with great lyrics
AJ Tracey
Holding Absence-Includes a great feature by lead singer Lucas' sister which is worth checking out
The Offspring
Will likely check out Escape the Fate and Hail the Sun as well

 

The new Origami Angel singles.

 

Amigo the Devil- Born Against. An absolute masterpiece.
