fertuiee Posted January 2, 2013 Report Share Posted January 2, 2013 The Special Goodness – NaturalThe Special Goodness have a new album. For those not in the know, it's Pat from Weezer. Y'know, the cool one. It used to be him and Atom Willard, but it's just Pat doing everything now. Their album Land Air Sea is the BOMB. Then 9 years of nothing, and now this. YEAH! Even if it's nowhere near as good as Land Air Sea, it's still guaranteed to be 1000% better than anything Weezer have done after Maladroit. I'm a few tracks in, and there's no shit rap songs or songs about being a badass doing drugs.Sounds good so far. Definitely more of a 'studio' album. Lots of neat production stuff going on, where as Land Air Sea sounds a bit more stripped back and ambient.This is great, love his drumming and the sound he gets from them, love the guitar tone too... this actually sounds like it couldve been released around the same time as Pinkerton. Really good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soda Jerk Posted January 2, 2013 Report Share Posted January 2, 2013 I agree. The tone of everything is really good. I think some of the drums sound programmed too, but I love that sound. I love the guitar ton on Land Air Sea too. Sounds like glassy Strat tone, but it's so thick. That album has more riffs and hooks, but this seems a bit more of a grower. There's quite alot going on. That fuzzy bass makes everything seem so dense. Digging it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flights Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 http://open.spotify.com/album/4MTlkJJ3bbZmv9e21EHl3LKinda a blend of aphex twin and Brian eno. Tasty ambient beats with soft pads behind them and some of the most reverb-y and delayed guitars. All the songs almost blend into one huge piece. Really interesting. It's got awesome artwork too!

Physical copies of his releases are frustratingly expensive (or were last time I checked). And the vinyl pressings of 'Glider' were hella pricey.

The material he releases under his own name is pretty good but I'm with you on preferring The Sight Below.

Soda Jerk Posted April 12, 2013 Report Share Posted April 12, 2013 Is anyone finding Spotify a bit of pain since it updated? It looks a bit weird, but I find it all a bit clunky and slow now. Don't understand why the middle bit is all light and grey either, when every other part of it is dark. Looks like a bit of a mismatch. I don't like how I have to pick who I follow now. Before, it just automatically followed anyone who I'm friends with on Facebook who uses Spotify. Boo-urns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stroopy121 Posted April 12, 2013 Report Share Posted April 12, 2013 Yeah, it's a bit fucking cack. Thankfully I seldom use it on my desktop anyway, but I still want to write a strongly worded letter to someone calling them a cunt for it. xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Gold Posted April 12, 2013 Report Share Posted April 12, 2013 Yep, it runs slow as fuck on my work connection now. Major bummer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soda Jerk Posted April 12, 2013 Report Share Posted April 12, 2013 I've got shithot fast fibreoptic, but the program itself is clunky. My connection bares no effect on that. Before the update, it was slick and simple. Something that searches for and plays songs doesn't need to be overly complex. The old lay out worked for the past 3 years. Why change to something that looks horrid and is buggy? Sort it out, Spotify. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soda Jerk Posted April 14, 2013 Report Share Posted April 14, 2013 I'd never heard them, though now I've realised they did 3 albums on Sub Pop, so I don't know how I missed them. Man, those melodies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woodsinho Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 Massive YES to Tony Danza, East of the Wall and Intronaut. Ace albums. Will have to get on the rest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soda Jerk Posted April 27, 2013 Report Share Posted April 27, 2013 (edited) This isn't on Spotify, and nobody cares about the Bandcamp recommendations thread:http://capsule.bandcamp.com/ Capsule! I posted their recent album, No Ghost, in here a while ago. They have a new EP called [A]. They got heavier, and louder. Too good.
