Its so good no seriously

I've come to tell you I've got scabs on my head.

Reminds me of Paul Simon 

Seems like the lack of well-paying jobs for educated individuals in this country could become a problem pretty soon, especially since no one can afford a used car at the moment.

Squealy album today. We all liked it - but as always, we had some issues with it. Follow us: @musicforahotterfuture on ig

Audio is of course fucked for this ep, but you're used to it by now. We discuss the latest product of the Disney Channel pipeline: Olivia Rodrigo. Its ok. Basically what you get when you have a small army of talented producers, writers and musicians write an album for a child star. Also the usual talk of stuff we watched last week. ig: @musicforahotterfuture

We all thought it was kinda indulgent. Of course pitchfork loved it, everyone knows they deadass deaf af. Stay til the end for the talk about a Danish film about alcoholism and laugh-riot American Psycho. We also talk about Casino and Manhattan. Follow us on ig: @musicforahotterfuture

its good. we all liked it.  pls follow: @musicforahotterfuture on ig. 

wailing, static and vacuum cleaner noises . . . but its not mbv o_o IT IS GODS WILL THAT YOU FOLLOW US ON IG: @musicforahotterfuture

I went to target and picked up a bag of rap tracks, does anyone want one? New boatload of crud from J. Cole, everyone come and eat it up. This shit sucks. Also, audio's slightly fucked. Will fix for next time. I have a disease and the only cure is you following me on ig and commenting your terrible opinions on my posts: @musicforahotterfuture

We have decisiveness and indecisiveness in this in-person episode, covering the whole range of certainties. FKA Twigs' voice is as soothing, dynamic and striking as anyone's on this album. She delivers something truly atmospheric, even with a sometimes very sparse mix. Listen in. FOLLOW US ON IG . . . please: @musicforahotterfuture

Wails of a drunken marauding bachelor echo through the mic - and fill your headphones with some serious sounds. This record took us by storm, and for the remaining episode we concern ourselves with whether it could be better, and how. Tune in for a nuanced discussion of how to critique a record that, on its face, is so good in so many areas. Those triumphs notwithstanding, we still find some ways...

Unknown Mortal Orchestra's 2018 album Sex and Food makes no mention of food - not even once. Hunnybee doesn't count. As for sex, its music so thats all over the place depending on how touchy your ears are. This one's got yelling and whispering, all through a mic connected to a chorus box connected to a delay pedal connected to a reverb circuit connected to a very deep puddle connected to Ableton,...

"46 minutes of confusion." "sounds like a car idling, and goes about as far, too." We're all on the same page for this one, folks. A lot of forum denizens might not be too happy with what we have to say about this record. A good old droning record to ease the nerves and boggle the mind today. Listen in. Follow us on instagram! @musicforahotterfuture

Cacophonous wails of an overactive copier today, and . . . its good? All three of us are on this one, and all of us get deep into the impressive orchestration of this electromechanical feat. Tune in.  Hit us up on ig! @musicforahotterfuture 

Broad agreement on this one. Concordant takes on Danny Brown's Cypress Hill-esque Dante's Inferno-reminiscent semi-concept album. Give a listen. Follow us on Instragram: @musicforahotterfuture

Just Parker and Sam for this episode. We talk about Perfume Genius' 2020 effort, why it's great, and why its hard to appreciate its long spans of silence and incredibly quiet composition. But its not bad, we're bad. Still, wait for the rec, this one isn't as simple as the others.

Great discussion in this one. What defines a concept album? Is a consistent sound necessary for an album to be considered great? What can be gained by deviating from a consistent sound? This and more, all with regards to HAIM's 2021 effort. Listen in.

Massive polarization in this one. The Garden manages to deliver an album that is both new and unique, without most of the good things associated with those two characteristics. Its about as fun to listen to as listening to someone at a bar tell you how they totally would have been a contender if they had just been somebody. Listen in for our worst episode yet.

Split opinions in this one. We have a special guest, our roommate James. We delve into Grimes' futuristic world of screaming and howling.

Fleet Foxes this time round. Nico, Parker and Sam discuss Indie Folk and how bad Mumford and Sons is (not really, actually, yes really). Anyways, Crack-Up is better than anything Mumford and Sons put together, but certainly no less likely to be played in an independent coffee shop. 

Nico's pick for this week - we're talking Freudian. Technical issues plague this episode - so we left them in for your listening pleasure. This one's wild; give a listen.

Sam, Parker and Nico delve into some dreamy psych-rock inspired dreampop with jazz influences. A lot of substance for such a short album. Listen in.
