Holy fuck a guitar album won alert the press

for the six others just cool enough for TMV, just read a thing with Omar saying he'd eventually like to reunite with Cedric, Jon Theodore and Eva Gardner(!), too bad Ikey is gone but maybe they can track down Linda Good?

I don't know why they would ever reunite with Linda Good - Omar told Nardwuar a pretty funny story about why she was fired:

aw poor linda good! thrown under the bus for taking notes! I could have sworn that Omar had some unkind things to say about Theodore too, but here we are. seems Omar has maybe mellowed a bit, or at least has grown more gracious about his collaborators in recent years, fwiw I quite liked what little I've seen/heard from the couple months Good was in the band

not complaining, just surprised

Forgot to vote, but would have split the Radiohead/TMV tie either way so it's cool

Best album from this year was Send, btw

imago, Tuesday, 12 July 2016 09:29 (seven years ago) link

the event dynamics of power asynchrony (rushomancy), Tuesday, 12 July 2016 12:00 (seven years ago) link

Whoops, missed this one but would have voted for Welcome Interstate Managers which is one of my favorite albums ever.

Yes! I love Welcome Interstate Managers. It's a classic.

kornrulez6969, Tuesday, 12 July 2016 12:52 (seven years ago) link

I'm one of the two people who voted for it. It's my favourite Fountains of Wayne album.

true

American indie rock from this period is so fucking dreary

Even if you disqualify Electric Version (Canadians), any year that featured Pig Lib, Gallowsbirds' Bark, and Ghosts of the Great Highway couldn't have been that bad for Amerindie.

Got about 7 minutes into the Wrens album. It sounds very much of its time.

TARANTINO! (dog latin), Wednesday, 13 July 2016 07:48 (seven years ago) link

The first four songs after the intro (Happy, She Sends Kisses, This Boy is Exhausted, especially Hopeless) on the Meadowlands are pretty flawless. The vocals take a bit to get used to, but the songs are worth it.

Thirteen Grand, Ex-Girl Collection, Everyone Choose Sides--there's only like two non-intro/outro songs that are less than 9/10
