Tempted to turn "confirmation of your assertion" into a word filter.

I don't know if someone already mentioned it, but I'm pretty excited for the new Atlas Sound record Parallax, out November 8th. I really enjoyed the first few released tracks, and I've been a moderate fan of most of what Bradford Cox puts out there. More good news, I read the "Premature Evaluation" on Stereogum today which said there a a bunch of tracks that could have easily fit on Halcyon Digest, if that is the case I'm sure I will love it.

now...where do I find this on vinyl...

You can order it from Amazon. They have a few copies, but as far as I know that's the only place you can get it -- I was told that it was never officially released, but a few copies seem to have gotten out anyway. In a week or so, though, it is going to be released as a 2xLP with the original album as well as the album of covers so maybe you want to hold out for that.

I just got my vinyl copy in the mail on Friday. It sounds just beautiful.

then that's what I'll do. Love that cover by The National

Posted by Horned Gramma on Oct 31, 2011, 8:27pm

It's a phenomenal cover. There's a lot of other stuff on there I'm really excited to hear. I'm not huge on Frightened Rabbit, but their cover of 'My Brother Tom, The Green Beret' is really good. I can't even imagine what James Kochalka doing 'The Bus Stop Song' sounds like. And Mice Parade does one of those incredible instrumentals from the second half of the album; I think 'A Trip Down the Rooster River'.

So stoked. And I'm thrilled that you enjoyed that record -- it's so fucking good, it's just a secret that shouldn't be kept.

I still find it hilarious that I found a copy of "If a Band Plays in the Woods...?" for $1 or something absurd a week before it was even released. I'm certain it was a promo that the record store just tossed the fuck out, but there are no hole punches or scratched out bar codes or anything on the case. I think I'll pull it out and give it a couple refresher spins tomorrow.

Ha, I remember that. You sent me a PM saying, "Hey I found that album and it's pretty good" and I was all like "YOU BASTARD!".

Posted by Pea on Nov 1, 2011, 10:02am

Hahaha yup. Sadly, I couldn't find it in my stash of CDs this morning

Smile by The Beach Boys is streaming here:

It's pretty amazing (although anyone who cares about this has already heard it I'm sure). The giant box set comes out tomorrow.

How many times is Brian Wilson going to try to sell me Smile?

It's nothing that wasn't done a 1000x better on Pet Sounds anyway.

Smile box set? Supposed reunion next year? SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!

I can't help myself
