The new Pissed Jeans tune.
Well what else did you expect? It's completely insane.

i still don't quite get this band
they have a few good songs but it seems dead contrived most of the time.
couldn't agree more
outside of false jesii part 2
I really like Dream Smotherer & I've Still Got You Ice Cream
pitchfork calling the new one a 're-imagining' of False Jesii is a bit generous I think, it just sounds the same but less memorable.
In theory they should be my favourite band ever!
I absolutely love the video for False Jesii Part 2.
Not being picky here, but don't you rate Cloud Nothings?
That's pretty much the most contrived band I've ever heard.
All I'm saying I suppose is horses for courses.
they certainly don't sound contrived to me
but I've heard things about them. Great record though.
It really upsets/disappoints me that you don't like them
You should, because I dunno. They're great.
^ ^ ^
I can't believe you think it's contrived too! Totally does not sound contrived at all, to my ears.
Yeah really don't hear that at all
he doesn't rap about his pain or about abstract concepts or about being a badass or about goblins and orcs. It's just about normal life, pizza and being really tired. I relate to it.
He doesn't rap at all
note to self: don't write posts while listening to Action Bronson
Yeah, ditto
Especially the really tired bit. And he sounds really tired. So tired that his face is all puffy. I feel that way all the time, so it's nice to hear someone moan and holler about that against some grinding riffs, which will inevitably make me feel like that even more so.
I don't even know if that made any sense
I'm tired.
i think we should stage an intervention
this is me trying to force my way out of the room

right look
I think this shows that his usual live manner is massively affected which is okay on its own (people love Tom Waits!) but you can still have a stage persona and put your own feelings (?) into it and I don't think he does. I just don't believe him for the most part. And if you combine that with songs that don't really go anywhere a lot of the time...
i'm sorry guize
:D
oh my god
this is amazing.
great band...
can't wait for the new one. I would say more but "I'm spent"....bud dum boom tishhh
I kinda agree with mug_s
I don't like them quite as much as it seems everyone else does
I mean I like them just
I dunno
I was highly suspicious of them at first
They did little for me at the ATP Halloween gig and I thought King of Jeans was a record by a bunch of try hards.
Then they utterly blew me away at Primavera and now I'd have their past two albums as up there with my favourite records this centruy.
similarly I wasn't on board at first, but grew to really dig their last couple of albums
yes! love it
I'd completely disagree with their being contrived. I think it sounds close to how they want it to sound: layered in filth. they're not exactly re-inventing the wheel with their music and they're clearly aware of it. I'd say it was full off gross conviction - totally what the jesus lizard were channelling.
One of the best bands in existence.
Great sound - lethargic, angry, filthy, cathartic. What is there not to feel or understand? Fucking brilliant band.
Matt Korvette is a loss adjuster.
I love that Matt Korvette loves high fashion and writes a blog for Spin.
His personal blog is rather good too.
NASA do extraordinary things. Suspensef but not one of them.
*is not one of them
sorry, wrong thread :D
good but
more of the same really innit. fourth album, mix it up a bit chaps?
Love it
I love king of jeans. Their previous album was pretty good - had some outstanding tracks, but some average ones too.
Another song from the forthcoming album. Sounding good. Real, really gooooooooood.
