can't go wrong Light Up Gold and Sunbathing Animal.

Their new one is really great. Reminds me quite a bit of early Blur at times.

i don't know enough early Blur to compare, but the new PC is quite enjoyable.

I listened to this album Projector by Geese and thought it sounded pretty good. I enjoyed the wild tempo changes happening to really keep my attention and it seemed to work well. Certainly they sound much more developed than I would expect from a young band releasing their first album.

Also listened to the War on Drugs album and enjoyed that too. I guess I lied when I pledged to only listen to My Morning Jacket for the next month. Also I rarely really listen to new things so consider that progress.

yes...these guys were a band to watch on Stereogum recently. I think the track they'd featured was Disco. I liked it a lot. I'll have to check the full album out.

not sure when The Notwist released a new album this year, but anyway I'm loving it today. More overtly krautrocky than Neon Golden, which is the only other one I'm intimately familiar with.

Parquet Courts album getting almost as many plays as the Turnstile album.

Maybe more.

This Parquet Courts album is indeed solid. I'm a big fan of the track 'Plant Life', which sounds like a Young Marble Giants/Byrne collab.

Will definitely give it a few more spins.

I just think this album is perfect for the medium.

It’s actually kind of interesting to me - this band. Don’t forget that I’m a Minnesotan. So, both low and trampled by turtles are out of the Duluth area. Why are both bands so ….different.

I'd give Low a 9/10 from an instrumental/production aspect, but the vocals sit at around a 3 for me. Not very interesting melodies to be putting over these otherwise deep and textured tracks.

I'll keep trying, but damn.
