New Melvins album is probably the best I've head from them since the records made when Jarred Warren and Coady Willis were in the band.

dude, i need to jump to this one soon. I been way into PJ but im ready to dive into that one today and wait for the new St Vincent on friday
Can't wait for Vincent...always such a joy to hear a new record from her. I genuinely like all her work, but, I think I prefer her when she's not adopting a new persona for the newest record, ala Bowie, and, this one feels more of a direct statement from her so far, not as distant, so, I'm really looking forward to it.
As an aside...Can I throw something else at you?
The new Messthetics album...
So...it's typically the rhythm section of Fugazi, alongside jazz/avant guitarist Anthony Pirog, and, they're incredible on the two prior records they've released so far, but, they've just recently put out an album in collaboration with saxophonist James Brandon Lewis, and...holy shit...it's freaking incredible.
Don't know if I'm telling you something you already know, but, please check it out.

Yeah, we have been discussing the Messthetics a lot on the fugazi thread! I need to check the new one out, i was a little bummed with a few things here and there but its worth more listens of course.

Man I tried with this one... It's like the worst parts of Dischord and jazz combined, instead of the best parts. Sorry team.
Disappointed doesn't even begin to cover it... To bed without dinner for you, big guy.

New Bill Frisell double album, Orchestras, is pretty great so far. Really enjoying it.
2 distinct live performances:
Disc 1 with his trio and the 60-piece Brussels Philharmonic. Disc 2 is his trio will an 11-piece jazz orchestra.
Disc 1 is very beautiful and lyrical, but, it's also a bit buttoned up for me, at times (so far). Disc 2 is much more exploratory.
Makes sense given the composition of each ensemble.
Just getting around to giving this a proper listen. Absolutely love it so far — “Rag” on the first CD (a favorite Frisell composition) sounds immaculate. I waited through that first couple minutes of improv just waiting for Frisell to launch into that riff, and was completely and delightfully caught off-guard when the orchestra did it instead. A+ stuff.
And after a few full days with Dark Matter, the sound of this record is like an ear massage. I feel like I can physically feel my eardrums relaxing as I listen.

I can't remember, did you enjoy the previous records without the sax?

I spun the last one a few times and enjoyed it, but I can't say it stuck with me.
Don't know how Pike keeps churning out devastating riffs. The guy is a god damned machine.
Hopefully, we'll get a gift from the mighty Sleep this year.
