Offical 2012 Alt Music Thread

[Sub Sammich]

After a few listens I'm liking the new Titus Andronicus record quite a bit. Hard to follow up The Monitor but this album is damn good.

LOVING THE NEW JESSIE WARE ALBUM.

RUNNING IS A CONTENDER FOR TRACK OF THE YEAR.

ON THE OTHER HAND, I THOUGHT THE NEW MELO-X/JESSE BOYKINS III ALBUM WAS OUT TOMORROW?

 

[TrueEpic08]

Four songs into The Haunted Man...

Whoever told Natasha that pursuing "Oh Yeah" was a good idea needs to be slapped.

Other than that, I'm liking this, but I liked the first half of Two Suns as well.

Edit: I give this one thumb up. "Oh Yeah" is the only galling misstep on here. Other than that, there's nothing really great on here, but it's a pretty good album. More straightforward and Pop at times than some of her earlier work, but it coheres nicely.

For some reason, I get the feeling that some Bat For Lashes fans might not like this much though...

did anybody check the album from Beach Fossils members side project Heavenly Beat ?
i know another member of Beach Fossils put out his DIIV project and got quite a bit of praise but never really seen this one get mentioned.

album got quite a bit of play from me when i was in Italy in the summer.
haven't really back to it like that but this song came on shuffle this morning

I hadn't heard a Bat For Lashes album before this one. She kind of reminds me of Lykke Li, who's albums I've thought were good but I never go back and listen to them. I see this album panning out the same way.

 

[Deafheaven]

She has a much better voice than Lykke tho.

 

[2 Up 2 Down]

2k13 just put me on to Dirty Projectors. I'm digging the Swing Lo Magellan album

You really think so?

I can remember Lykke blowing me away at least once (probably just once) while Natasha never really impressed me on that front.
