I'm not sure how the rest of you guys will take to it but it's one of my favorite songs released this year so I just really wanted an excuse to listen to it again.

Both of those were great. The first was Melvins-esque which I love. I wasn't sure about Misery at first but I enjoyed it a lot. Kinda hit close to home due to my recent break up

everything about this song was awful. i hated it. i might have hated it less if it wasn't this long.

this was terrible. the songwriting was extremely boring. i kinda liked how they didn't bring in the drums until about 2:40 (this was highly innovative, going by punk rock standards) but other than that i liked nothing about this song.

Amazing vocals and lyrics, and its chorus is perfect. I wish the instrumentals would just jump out at me a bit more however, I guess they suited the track but it wasn't anything special.

That A New Family Robot video has seven views. Where do you find this stuff? Much better choice than last week though and I think zappa-ish describes it well

VI's song wasn't bad by any means but vocals and lyrics are important to me so it loses some points there

somehow I had a feeling that your post about this one would have the word "zappa" in it somewhere and that you would love it. I am glad that you like it!


haha yeah i guess that was expected. i hope you didn't pick this because you were disappointed that i trashed your song from last week :-P

but this was truly one of the most zappa-ish tracks i've heard, and i've heard a lot of zappa-ish tracks. for instance, don preston obviously tries to emulate zappa in some of his own music, but he doesn't come anywhere close to being as zappa-ish as this guy. and preston was literally zappa's keyboard player in several of his bands!

it's also interesting (and quite unusual) that a new family robot reminds me of many different facets of zappa, btw. the '60s mothers jams (didja get any onya? in particular came to mind), '73/'74 era zappa, i even hear some of his synclavier stuff in there.

expected more from this after the positive comments from steiner and (particularly) mycro tbqh. as far as "this type of music" goes i know a gazillion tracks that are just as good as this or better. (and maybe it's a bit on the short side? i dunno, i feel like i would like it more if it went on for a few more minutes.) all that being said, this IS a great tune - this would probably be my favorite this week if it wasn't for a new family robot.

i listened to buttercup on spotify because the YT link didn't work for me. very good song, actually! very well written pop rock. i liked how it became more intense in the finale. i want to check out more by this band, though i have a feeling like i'll like their other stuff a lot less than this. (or maybe i'll love all of their stuff and hippo campus will become one of my favorite bands, who knows.)

you did at least respond positively to the band, though! or did you just randomly say "nice" about a song by a band you knew nothing about?

For some reason I couldn't stop thinking of the Beach Boys. This was pleasant and good instrumental work but at the same time nothing that special or different.

Very nice. Randomly caught these guys live in February (Literally googled live music in town that night, having never heard of them) great fucking show, and it was actually the night before the album came out. Been a fan ever since.

a friend of mine is super into jem but i've never checked her albums out, and this song doesn't make me want to. it's just kinda boring and i found nothing about it particularly great. mediocre.

had to relisten to this one a bunch of times to decide how i feel about it. i concluded that there's several bits in this song i really like and they're enough for me to say i enjoy it overall. good song but i've heard better by esperanza spalding. not as good as your previous two songs (but that was a high bar to reach, admittedly).

decent song. i don't care much for folksy stuff (as i explained when discussing the frank turner song last week), but i liked the echo effects and singing in this enough to give it my stamp of approval.

i'm not a shania twain fan at all and i've heard worse by her but... yeah, this was pretty bad. not a fan of the country-ish pop she makes and this didn't do anything to transcend that genre.

she still looks pretty good for a 52 year old woman, though, i'll give her that.
