Dijon Mustard Posted November 6, 2016 Share Posted November 6, 2016 i been sleep Disinnocence (guitar hero was my intro to rock music tbh) so this post-punk revival band went full bore and named themselves after a tune by The Smiths, now that's adorable. i like how much space they give each member to play like a lead instrument; makes sense that a music rhythm game would be the best home for them. gonna have to agree with disinnocence and say that the drums are what matter. kinda like fellow revivalists The Strokes: if one of their songs comes on i listen for drums and only drums Excellen ooh, this i like. most "indietronica" types sound as if they're trying to hide in their music, but this guy really wants you to hear his well-thought-out lyrics. intrigued enough to put on his self-titled album and run some dutch thru the illuminating google translate online service Knight Falchion ye olde-timey jazz singers forever, honestly. this stuff's such an easy sell to me, i say, as i listen to it for free, on youtube Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parrhesia Posted November 7, 2016 Author Share Posted November 7, 2016 "ANTHONY FANTANO DIDN'T LIKE THIS RECORD, but who cares what that MELON FAced cUCK who should go back to reviewing MEMES. but yeah, it's foxing, a band who has terrible luck with their tours vans. this song is about the bassist's experiences in afghanistan. pretty sad stuff man, but it's pretty," said DisinnocencE calmly.

Knight Falchion Posted November 7, 2016 Share Posted November 7, 2016 De Zevende Nacht: quite pleasant; I enjoyed the subtle instrumentation and the dynamic change going into the chorus. Everything blended nicely too! Witness: can I, too, summon the powers of the banana clan if I recite the hymn? I hope further listening will answer this question De Jour de l'Ouverture: great voice, easy to listen to, plus French always sounds great when sung Indica: the melon is good for finding music I might like that I've never heard of, but I've always taken his opinions with a grain of salt (or several). That said, I like parts of this song (like the vocals) but felt it was a little too subdued at times Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ping Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 Pretty Girls Make Graves seems like a pretty cool band I haven't heard of until now. I'll definitely check out more of their stuff later. Spinvis is new to me as well, even though the Netherlands are only about 100km west from where I live. Very enjoyable to listen to, I really like the flow of the melody and the instrumental movement around it. I liked most of the other stuff from the last two pages, too (haven't gone through the whole thread ;) ), but those two stood out for me.

peener weener Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 @esme i loved the fuck out of this dumb shit @dijon it was pretty enjoyable @disinnicocnce 1 i liked it, i might check it out. the vocals i'm fine with, it's got that emo sadboy confessional aesthetic @excellent i can't put my finger on what this reminds me desperately of @our very own parrheisa not my style, but nick cave's voice is wonderful @knight falchion this song was adorable but it somehow reminded me of my background existential dread so thanks for that im gonna take a nap and finish it later Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knight Falchion Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 (edited) I'm only a scientist in training but I'm pretty sure that exhaling follows inhaling regardless of the gas unless sudden death happens in between and that this song is good for the soul Edited November 9, 2016 by Knight Falchion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disinnocence Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 (edited) donald trump Witness (1 Hope): the beat may have been a bit too busy, but the spacey laser aesthetic made up for it. i'll vibe with it. Le Jour de l'Ouverture: the violinist dying at the beginning was pretty good. i liked a lot of the subtle stuff in the instrumentation, but i will say i'm a little disappointed the song didn't break into a huge crescendo at the end, but i can respect them for not blowing themselves up. Alles Neu: fuck those sinister strings were great. the rest of the song was pretty good, but really, i want to emphasize how good they were dude. Inhale Exhale: my scientist licence was revoked after being involved in some... questionable experiments, but i can tell you that if you try hard enough, you probably can. it's worth a shot at least. song was good too. time for my (not so) long-winded paragraph on "further listening: foxing." Alright, so you liked this song? And you want more? I bet you do. Indica's probably the high point of Dealer (for me, at least), but don't let it sway you from listening to it, because it's a pretty enjoyable listen. Most of the album is very toned-down, soft and ethereal emo, post-hardcore/rock. There are some more... bombastic songs on the record (Night Channels, Glass Coughs, etc.) but the overall aesthetic is pretty quiet, almost to the point where there's not enough loud sections (the closing section of the album is too soft imo), but yet again, the whole record is very pretty and it's quality all the way through (considering your view on instrumental segues and/or interludes). Now, if you want more dynamic and exciting instrumentation but with the same style of Indica or Dealer, check out their debut, The Albatross. It's a lot shorter, but it's got more impact. It's generally louder, and more instrumentally interesting, but it's still houses the same style of their second record. Plus, there's no way you can deny the Bloodhound/Inuit pairing. It's just superb. So, don't listen to what The Melon says about Foxing, they're really good and you should check out at least a few more songs, just to make sure they're right for you.

peener weener Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 @disinnocence??? it was aight but didnt leave much of an impact @excellen really digging it. it gives me a big 70s vibe fsr. like he's listened to too much king crimson and mike oldfield @knight falchion i mean @esme 10/10 @disinnocence it was ok but foxing just doesnt do it for me @ping good shit @dijon that was fuken great. r&b pleases me easily Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parrhesia Posted November 10, 2016 Author Share Posted November 10, 2016 Knight Falchion reckons "Saintseneca is one of the few bands where I actually like their current alt-rock stuff better than their folk-rock origins" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ping Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 Nao - Inhale Exhale: "Dieses Video ist in deinem Land nicht verfügbar." So I watched two or three other videos of her music instead. Pleasant music, would listen to her again. Saintseneca - Sleeper Hold: Wouldn't mind listening to them again, either, but to be perfectly honest, that song didn't really seem... outstanding to me, for the lack of a better word. It's a good song, but for me, it seemed to lack something special, to make me remember it. :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
