Re: American Band- 9/30/16

Luckily, KH is definitely not one of my favorites (sounds half-finished; where's the chorus, Cooley?) That's interesting. Made me realize that Cooley has a lot of songs that are basically a bunch of verses with guitar solos where the choruses would be. Uncle Frank, Self-Destructive Zones, Perfect T...

Re: hiss golden messenger/mc taylor

It's gonna be really tough for me to make any of the shows on this tour. Originally I thought I could swing both the Madison and MPLS shows, but now I've got people coming in from out of town that weekend and it's just not gonna happen. Pretty bummed about it tbh.

During the last 2-ish minutes of the song, I hear "Zip City"...

Re: What's Everyone Listening to?

http://upcomingvinyl.com/pics/covers/h/hiss-golden-messenger-heart-like-a-levee.jpg There have been some outstanding new releases in 2016. "American Band" captures the social/political mood of the year; "Schmilco" made me fall in love with Wilco again; "Paging Mr. Proust" and "Life in the Dark" fea...

Re: American Band reviews

I'm curious, why has Pitchfork not reviewed AB? Finding it difficult to give it a low score :lol: They've actually be reasonably fair over the years to the boys. GGB got a 7.7 and Stephen Duesner is actually a fan. Duesner is, on the other hand, the guy who gave Jason Isbell's Something More than F...

Re: hiss golden messenger/mc taylor

The last ten minutes were an emotional roller coaster (slight exaggeration). Hadn't received a shipping confirmation yet so I tried to find my original order confirmation. Couldn't find that either, so I started to panic that I hadn't actually ordered the record. Began imagining a dark future withou...

First 2,500 vinyl pre-orders will receive red vinyl. Red vinyl will be available ONLY through the Drive-By Truckers webstore and US indie shops
Funny. Mine's definitely red-ish, from Amazon.

Re: American Band- 9/30/16

I haven't really had a chance to listen to the vinyl yet (new turntable is coming today), but I have a feeling that when I do, "Kinky Hypocrite" being relegated to a separate goddamn record is really going to bug me. #shouldabeenyoubaggage

It's actually dull red with black smudges and streaks. Is that a thing or am I special? Plays ok so far.

Based on the 3 songs I've heard, unless the remaining tracks are nothing but personal insults aimed at my family and favorite sports teams...this will be my AOTY.

"Once they Banned Imagine" reminds me of something but I can't place it.

Re: American Band- 9/30/16

My take on Ever South is that it's a fine piece of writing that barely meets the minimum requirements to be considered a "song." I just find it to be super boring. I do enjoy the way the bass rattles my car, though. The bass on this album (composition, performance, tone, production, everything) is f...

I forgot about the first one technically being a CAH album. Which is weird, because the other guy sings on about half the songs.

For the first time in about a dozen pre-orders, Amazon has let me down. Said it was arriving today all week, now it says tomorrow. I can still download the mp3s, so it's all good.
