Youth Lagoon's first album is much different. Tough to say whether you would like if if you didn't like Wondrous Bughouse, it is much more lo fi and the vocals are heavily processed to the point that they are unintelligible. It is very touching though, I really loved it. It was one of my top 5 albums of 2011 (I think that was the year it was released).

Give that Wondrous Bughouse at least 3 listens in headphones before you give up on it. It is not an immediate album, it takes a bit to process and familiarize yourself with. Very few pop moments on it which was surprising to me.

But back on the subject of his first album, check out these 2 videos to see if you might like the album. The first video is just a good song from it. The second video is a must watch, one of the best music videos I have ever seen.

I'm halfway through The Lovely Bad Things new album "The Late Great Whatever" and it is damn good.

Also has anyone seen How To Dress Well live? Got tickets to see him in T.O. next month hope its a good show

I saw him at The Great Hall in the fall and it was kind of disappointing but I think it was more of the venue's fault. There weren't many people there and there was a loud fan or something going the whole time that was clearly pissing Tom/the band off.

My friend saw them at the Drake a few months before and said it was much better.

still playing the 2 new Strokes songs along..already mentioned it, but surprised at how much i'm looking forward to their new album.
never really looked forward to Angles at all.

still not listened to the Phoenix album yet.
seems to have gotten quite a mixed reception so far..but like someone mentioned it'll probably grew on them time summer comes around.

keep forgetting to listen to the Youth Lagoon album as well.


was just about to mention this song..anyone got a download link ?

The new Youth Lagoon is excellent, I never really got into the first one. And a new Smith Westerns track, should be great if it's anything like Dye It Blonde.. Can't listen to it yet though. What's the feedback here?
