The Nadas are basically the Tragically Hip of Iowa. Clams would dig this track for sure. The version on ICYMI is a little more uptempo, and I prefer it, but it's not on the Youtubes.

Re: What's Everyone Listening to?
I LOVE this album. Can't stop listening to it. Ultraviolet and Circuits in the Sand are my favorite tracks but the whole album is solid imo.whatwouldcooleydo? wrote:
King Tuff- The Other
After a few listens I still don't know quite what to say about this. I absolutely love his previous two albums (King Tuff and Black Moon Spell), and this is pretty different all the way around for those two. If this album was the first thing I had heard by him, I have no doubt that my feelings would be more clear and that I would dig this. However, the previous two records left such a mark on me that I can't unhear them when listening to this. I can tell that each listening grew more on me than the previous, so maybe I'll report back once I have more listenings under my belt
I keep it all together for the sake of the kids.

So rude, WWCD. He even asked nicely. I apologize on his behalf, Clams.whatwouldcooleydo wrote:Do you need us to listen to it for you as well?
I haven't listened to King Tuff's older albums very much, so I'm coming into this new one pretty fresh. I caught his show last week at the Rock and Roll Hotel and it was fantastic. It appears that "Psycho Star" is the single from the album, and it was fun live because of the disco vibe, but "Ultraviolet" is definitely my favorite track. I really liked KT's band, with the exception of his keyboard player. She's a fine keyboard and french horn player, but I found her stage presence annoying. The harmonies at the end of "Through the Cracks" on the album are beautiful (Jenny Lewis sings backup vocals) and the slide guitar on that track is also quite nice. The guitarist KT is touring with is really, really great. "Infinite Mile" and "Birds of Paradise" are catchy, upbeat tracks. Ty Segall plays drums on most all of the tracks on the new album and also co-wrote the track "Neverending Sunshine". Another tidbit -- King Tuff is one of Ty Segall's Muggers.

I’d say it’s more LSD dipped than whiskey soaked.whatwouldcooleydo? wrote:cortez the killer wrote:But is it "real rock and roll"?
