New Real Estate song. Probably the best song I have heard from them yet musically, although not as good vocal melodies as their top songs



Also, Mac DeMarco leaked. Giving it a listen now only half paying attention, but really enjoying it a lot from what I am picking up

arcade fire first album was everything after was nas after illmatic status to me, I can't see them being enjoyable live, but maybe I could be wrong. Can't go wrong for $22 at Wells Fargo

I found that album really enjoyable because of my love for the Dre inspiration. But Vampire Weekend wrecked all competition last year

I can understand you preferring it but people act like AM released a crappy cd

 

[Roaden Polynice]

I really like Atlas.

Though it sorta tails off at the end. From "Had to Hear" to "Primitive" it's all top notch, then there's a weird tonal shift with Alex Bleeker's song which sounds sorta country and really slow, like slow for Real Estate. It's short, and the harmonies at the end of the song are good, but it just sorta breaks the momentum of the album and the tone of the album. Then it sorta sputters into where the rest of the album was with the last two songs but never really gets going again.

Gonna give Mac Demarco, Sun Kil Moon, and Metronomy a spin now

 

[Adam3000]

The Sun Kil Moon is definitely an interesting album but I'm ready for him to just shut the fukk up by the end of it, which sucks because the later part of the album is the best part.
