new tortoise

new stuff that sounds like tortoise

My friends’ band Cougar, great great record.

I’ll rep for that, too. I loves the Cougar.

Kaki King’s ...Until I Felt Red was produced by McEntire and reminds me a lot of things like Tara Jane O’Neil, Halfway to a Threeway-era Jim O’Rourke, and Slowdive. Recomended.

Recommendation noted! I love Kaki King. When I saw her earlier this year, before she actually went on I could hear her jamming on the random abandoned drumkit in the downstairs/green room @ The Dame, really throwing down! Then she came up and played that really pretty mellow one with the slide.

my album, if someone puts it out. someone put it out!

new tortoise

really? details?

Is Kaki considered post-rock? I’m not quibbling defs, just didn’t know she claimed/was claimed as such.

Oh, I liked that Tied + Tickled Trio live dvd that came out. The new song on the audio portion kinda sucks though. Maybe they will have a new record in ’07.

Well, there IS that potential rumored quasi-Slint reunion (Pajo I think said that everyone wanted to get back togeether and make music, but not under the name ‘Slint’)

I don’t know that Kaki considers herself post-rock, but I’d be hard-pressed to consider some of the tracks on her new album anything but, esp. considering the pedigree of her producer.

NB: I’d never heard of her before, but I get the impression that the post-rock guise is a new thing for her. Her Wikipedia article sez:

With the prominence of electric guitar on the new record and the addition of a full band, The Onion AV Club has called the sound a “post-rock makeover” for King.

Mono—You Are There.

i know it’s not “technically” post-rock, but that’s exactly what i hear when i listen to it. the soft melodies. the mix of electronic and real instruments. it sounds like what tortoise coulda become had they listened to more dance music.

What’s this like?

new Guy Fixsen-produced Piano Magic album will be out next year.

it sounds like what tortoise coulda become had they listened to more dance music.

it sounds like what fila brazillia coulda become if they weren’t such jokers

Sickoakes remind me of Bark Psychosis circa “Scum”...(i.e. slow-building instrumentals that gently pulverize)...

Explosions In The Sky—All Of A Sudden, I Miss Everyone

The Oktober People—? (“Last Song” is a new track online here: http://www.myspace.com/theoktoberpeople )

Aw shit and I was just checking yesterday afternoon!

guess what, it sound like every other explosions in the sky record

It sounds really good. I’ll be buying it.

more like explosions in my butt, amirite

I’m looking forward to the Arbouretum record. I’m not even sure if they’re all that post-rocky, but they’re on Thrill Jockey.

I know! Let’s be boring and have canapes.

Hurting, I’d say Arbouretum isn’t post-rock, it’s like the dead meets helium meets...something. Still working that out. Anyway, it’s a superb record, and they’re amazing live.

Yeah, The Dead was the first band I thought of when I saw them. I almost wanted to call them “post-jam”
