New Music Friday!

  • Geese - 3D Country [recklessly entertaining. It's a wild cross section of post-punk talk-singing tropes (Squid; Black Country, New Road), alt-country twang (Black Crowes, Ween) and guitar craftiness (Television, The Strokes). This gave me geesebumps through the majority of listening. A much better venture than an unlistenable singular GoOsE

Imma hafta go back to this one. Now, including you, several people have been raving about this one. Maybe I missed something with my first listen 🤔

I HATED them when I saw them open for Jack White, but I'll be damned if I didn't straight up enjoy the heck outta this record.

So it's partly my age, partly my location / exposure, but I have never listened to Blur minus maybe two singles. So the new album is my first real experience with them. And it's really good! I think I'm gonna try diving into the rest of their catalog now.

I didn't realize the new Andrew Bird was another one of his outside instrumental albums, but that's okay. It's perfectly pleasant. I didn't quite hear any sort of field recordings type of sounds in the background (maybe I need a closer listen) which is a bummer cause I am a sucker for that.

Listening to the Andrew Bird right now - it's delightful.

I would start with Modern Life is Rubbish and work your way forward. That's what a friend recommended to me many years ago and it worked out great.
