music and excitement

[I'm Hardcore]

when was the last time a new band made you feel genuinely excited about music? by new i mean c.2013. kind of a serious thread, because i haven't felt like that for awhile myself.

music and excrement

yeah new music is pretty shit. fucking vampire weekend the best album of the year pitchfork? ooook

[redbreegull]

there were a few albums from 2013 that got me pretty excited but mostly from bands I was already into. People are all about Deafheaven and I thought their album was really good, but the kind of music they play is a little bit on the fringe of my tastes and I don't necessarily think it's something I will keep coming back to in years to come.

I'm not even sure when the last time was I heard something totally new and felt really pumped about it

[slunken]

Probably wu lyf when "heavy pop" came out

gettin' old

[redbreegull]

yeah I am afraid it has to do with getting to a certain age and it being more difficult to find new music that connects the same way as when we were younger. I always thought I would avoid this because I like music from many different eras, but maybe that's not how it works.

When I was in high school I thought I hated basically everything new and that most good music dried up at the end of the 90s, so I rejected new music without giving it a chance. Then I finally realized the 2000s had a ton of great bands and I had a period of prolific musical discovery. Now, I keep looking for new stuff to turn me on but I can't find anything that I think is as good as the bands I like from last decade

no thrill of the new to old hands

brain plasticity is basically gone by 30

ever seen a radiohead office chart? they're super-eclectic for a reason

When MBV's new album came out.

I've been trying to listen to more music released roughly within the last decade. I've gotten into Deerhunter and Danny Brown so I guess when they release another album I'll be quite excited about that

[redbreegull]

Deerhunter is one I have not really checked out, maybe that's something I should try

new deerhunter is oaky, there's some goo stuff on there i would suggest starting with Microcastle & Halcyon Digest. I'd listen to digest first but purists would probably say Microcastle

great band live though holy balls like omg if you like noise jamming you'll probably get a huge erection
