I am really looking forward to hearing this and am glad to hear it's not too much of a depature from the last one. I suppose it'll leak soon enough.

weird, another friend of mine who recently heard it said it was different, and possibly better, than the first one.

it's got some good jammage and instrumental action, but the songwriting seems too samey to me. not that that's a bad thing. still sounds good. i don't know what i was expecting. i only listened once. i really really liked that last album though and this one just didn't hit me as hard.

I wanna hear more guitar solos. Are there more guitar solos?

five years pass...

So I've never heard this record. I suspect I should, right?

Yes. Although I think 4 is better.

used to love this, but i wonder if it's aged well?

The first two tracks sounded pretty fracking awesome in the car. The fact that it's such a specific retro (psyche) sound suggests it'll age well depending on your long-term tastes. Sounds a bit like Caribou's 4-piece live band sans synth, or Os Mutantes, or Nuggets.

Sick Mouthy (Scik Mouthy), Thursday, 19 April 2012 12:33 (twelve years ago) link

There's no denying it's great (especially the first couple of songs yeah), but I don't know if I'd be able to enjoy it as much these days since there were a fair few other bands who came after and did a similar take on the sound which I think I overloaded on. Still, it's a very good album.

Who else did similar stuff afterwards?

Sick Mouthy (Scik Mouthy), Thursday, 19 April 2012 12:42 (twelve years ago) link

Ach you know, the whole continuum from Ariel Pink through Tame Impala, freak-folk to chillwave. I realise it's pretty unfair to make these comparisons but when I heard Ta Det Lungt in 2004 it sounded so incredibly fresh and since then there's been a lot of stuff going along (fairly) similar aesthetic lines. But don't let me spoil it for such petty reasons. I'm gonna dig it out tonight I think.

heard 2 minutes of Ariel Pink once and thought they were utter bilge.

Sick Mouthy (Scik Mouthy), Thursday, 19 April 2012 13:44 (twelve years ago) link

2 minutes isn't really much to go on now, is it? I really like Worn Copy (which I think I discovered roughly the same time as Ta Det Lungt), but a lot of people like the latest one Before Today.

Scary Move 4 (dog latin), Thursday, 19 April 2012 13:45 (twelve years ago) link

Tame Impala - Innerspeaker. Possibly better than Ta Det Lungt (less meandering, more focused). Both are great.

Du Är För Fin För Mig still = heroic. Basically a folk flute emo song that goes out in a blaze of glory with a pretend Hendrix solo.
