i was reminded that this song exists randomly, and i had to listen to it because it's one of those songs that just makes me smile. it's unbelievable. you wanna talk about groove? this, my friends, this is a groove. this is a chunky, funky, low-down and dirty type of groove.

a chill, spare, and sweet little r&b-flavored pop song/diss track that addresses how some fans and haters alike are too emotionally attached, intrusive, and judgmental, and should learn to respect others' boundaries. video is also aesthetic or whatever the kids say.

the minor key changes were very weird to my ear on the first listen, but i could tell it would grow on me. it's super boppy and layered, with some slithery brass and just generally a lot of elements going on, making for an interesting earworm.

The Antlers are going on tour to celebrate the 10th anniversary of their album Hospice. Darby Cicci has left the band, so it'll just be Peter Silberman and Michael Lerner along with "old friends and guests." They'll be performing the album in full. The album will also be rereleased as a double LP on white vinyl with packaging and artwork by Zan Goodman, who did the art for the original album packaging. Tickets go on sale on Friday.
I can't wait to sob in public with a bunch of other people.

I cannot believe it has been ten years since Hospice.
I cannot believe it has been ten years since Hospice.
2008/2009 is when I pivoted from listening to nu-metal and alt rock and into indie, and looking at the list of albums released in 2009 has me kinda emotional. Lots of memories tied up in this music.
Other albums hitting 10 years old this year:
Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix- Phoenix
Twin Suns - Bat for Lashes
Merriweather Post Pavilion - Animal Collective
It's Blitz! - Yeah Yeah Yeahs
Actor - St. Vincent
Manners - Passion Pit
Veckatimest - Grizzly Bear
XX - The XX
Blood Bank - Bon Iver
Aim and Ignite - fun.
Crack the Skye - Mastodon

jgeis i am heavily objecting to your album - artist ordering there.
That Antlers stuff is like, that’s a good album and all but this kind of stuff always just seems like a blatant cash grab when the band has clearly run its course. Last album was nearly five years ago and that had zero traction, 1/3 of the band has moved on...

In other recent news there were a lot of really great releases last Friday, Deerhunter, Sharon Van Etten, James Blake, Pedro the Lion, Toro y Moi, and The Twilight Sad all put out new albums. I've personally been blasting that new Twilight Sad album, it's really excellent.
Also Phoebe Bridgers and Connor Oberst dropped a surprise album this morning under the band name Better Oblivion Community Center. It doesn't appear to be up on Google Play Music yet but it is up on Spotify for those that use it.
God, 2019 is the year of Good Music

Heavily underrated, and kinda their last really good one unfortunately.
I don't think it's all that underrated and honestly I like all their new stuff except for the Emperor of Sand and even that one has some good tracks.
Might have just been my bubble but it seemed like it wasn't super well received by a lot of fans.
Maybe!
From my experience your sentiment is far more common and I'm the outlier.
I liked The Hunter and once more round the sun a good bit.
But that's how you'd say it to someone IRL. "Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix by Phoenix."
No, I'd say Phoenix's Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix
