I actually like his voice. His lyrics are pretty good too, its just the music behind it sometimes doesn't draw me in. With Coachella coming up I'll listen to more than Lifted, but he seems hit or miss with me. Some songs of his I really like though.
casadaga is one of my favorite albums of all time. the first seven tracks are all outstanding. gonna have to jam that when i get home this afternoon.
The first single from the new Architecture in Helsinki album was unveiled today. Sounds pretty good. http://soundcloud.com/modularpeople/architecture-in-helsinki/s-5QN25
We are not even halfway through the year yet and some pretty amazing albums have been released. It is my opinion that 2011 has already surpassed 2010 in quality. I have listened to 13 albums and here are my rankings: 1 - Panda Bear - Tomboy 2 - PJ Harvey - Let England Shake 3 - Radiohead - The King of Limbs 4 - The Strokes - Angles 5 - Pains of Being Pure at Heart - Belong 6 - Wire - Red Barked Tree 7 - TV on the Radio - Nine Types of Different Light 8 - Fleet Foxes - Helplessness Blues 9 - Asobi Seksu - Fluorescence 10 - James Blake - James Blake 11 - Gang of Four - Content 12 - Low - C'mon 13 - Elbow - Build A Rocket Boys! Still looking forward to the following: Kanye West and Jay-Z Coldplay M83 Wilco Aphex Twin (if released) Beck (if released) Beastie Boys Nick Cave (if released) Friendly Fires (if released) Lee "Scratch" Perry RHCP Battles Portishead (if released) Blur (if released)
daaam. how did I miss Asobi Seksu? will be getting that tonight. M83 - can't wait for that one. new Battles is around on the net. I think it's good, but really weird, which is odd considering it's battles afterall.. Tyondai's absence is def noticable. very little math rock if any is on the album. no more chipmunk vocals though. http://www.weallwantsomeone.org/2011/03/09/new-battles-ice-cream-feat-matias-aguayo/
