Excited for this new Lingua Nada record that keeps getting delayed. I guess they lost a couple members and chose to flex a bit harder on the pop aspect of their sound (while also doubling down on ring modulators and octave pedals).
First listen, it sounds a bit like Reflections that morphs into a mix of styles from both 10,000 days and Lateralus. Musically it's really fantastic, I'm unsure about Maynard's singing here though. Kind of turned off by it from the first listen, but I'm sure it'll grow on me.

I did not like new tool. I’d be thrilled if it was just like lateralus, and it sort of is, but for a 10 minute song there was almost nothing interesting to me... maybe 13 years between new music is actually a bad sign
New Bon iver has dropped 3 weeks early and I am pumped though
maybe i'm streaming terrible dj right now if i am its here

Best thing I've heard or seen Danny Carey do in the last decade was get up on stage (out of the audience from a couple of rows behind me) with some former members of King Crimson that were opening for Dream Theater in 2012 and jam for about half an hour on one of 3 drum kits on the stage.

That sounds awesome, but to be fair Danny sounds amazing on this new track as well.
I'm not a huge Bon Iver fan in general, but this new album is rad. Feels like it takes the abstract glitchiness of his previous album and combines it with actually fleshed-out songs. The whole thing is streaming on Youtube and other services now.

Slipknot's "We are not your kind" released today, and it's awesome. 20 Years Later, Slipknot is probably the best they've ever been? I'm only a half-way into this record and I love it already. It's a great mix of styles of their roots and later melodic records with some new experiments thrown in.

I've been jamming the new Slipknot album since it came out on Friday. I think Spiders, Nero Forte, and Not Long For This World are my favorites on it.
Spiders is just so different for the band. Very experimental, eerie, and slow paced, but it's a real jam. Even if you're not a fan of Slipknot I suggest giving it a chance.
Big Thief released one of my favorite albums of the year so far, and they're closing out the year with another one. Apparently the new one is the "earth twin" to the previous album's "celestial twin", i.e. the previous one was spacey and psychedelic and the forthcoming one is pretty raw, with minimal overdubs. Excellent indie rock, this band is on a hot streak.
It's a Lo-fi chillout remix album of various Pokemon songs produced by Mikel and mastered by DJ Cutman. I'm listening to it over Spotify and it's really nice ambient music with some familiar nostalgic harmonies and low bpm electronica. Very good relax music. They've also made a Zelda & Chill album which is fantastic, and I highly recommend. There's also a Mario & Chill by a different composer but under the same record label that is also pretty good, but not at the level of Zelda/Poke & Chill.

Anyone know where I can find the version of Who Shot Ya by Notorious BIG that sounds like a remix with a fast piano riff throughout it? It was in Mark Ecko's Getting Up but I can't find it through the soundtrack listings.
Some songs really bring me back to childhood, and conjure up images of my family on vacation, or watching TV late at night in the summer, or driving with the windows down with the radio on https://youtu.be/5ZnPF53I0FM
Also here's something I recently discovered through Twitter, a John Carpenter inspired track from a rap act I had never heard of before called clipping. Its really good! I really like it! https://youtu.be/fIrpLBShe1A

Oh man, clipping. are fucking dope- this song is like a pitch perfect deconstruction of gangsta rap and the hashtag flow:

I've always been a huge fan of TDWP. They've grown so much from silly song names and the classic 2000s metalcore sound. Transit Blues was a great album and Dead Throne/ZombieEP are excellently heavy. Stoked.

Sounds like Daveed Diggs of Hamilton fame
That's because it is.
They also put out a pretty excellent sci-fi concept album a couple years ago.

New single! It's slower than I would expect from a first single, but it's pretty great sounding. More progression along the Transit Blues route and has a Sierra from Bad Daughter feature. Love the mix here too. They have a new song called Switchblade that they've performed live which is going to sound amazing with this mix.

I am dumb, this was literally a sped up remix made for the game and I had to just look it up on Youtube.
Think I like the original version more having listened to it a bunch of times.

I do like some of the wrinkles he throws in on the newest track, but I prefer him exploring a more traditional battery, rather than all the exotics.
If I want to chill and be enveloped by world music percussion I'll throw Terry Bozzio on.

It's a thrash album! I really like it!
I am loving the shit out of Infest the Rat's Nest, but no, King Gizzard is not knocking Megadeth or Mustaine off my Thrash Rushmore.
Anthrax, though...
