I was just listening to Perfect From Now On last night.
At least, I tried to.
Sone of those songs are so inexorably linked to my past that I can’t really “go there” anymore.
One song in particular. (Hint: Mothers)

“The Plan” from Keep it Like a Secret is a goddamn glorious opening track.

How was it? He's back to a 4-piece now, right? Got tix for that album tour this summer. Pretty pumped. I always enjoy watching Doug play.

Wait, do you think Keep it like a Secret is new?

It was good. Doug's still a stonefaced professional. Yup, it was a 4-piece with two of the guys of the brazilian band Oruã filling in on the drums and the second guitar respectively. They were also their first support. I guess these days it's Doug plus whoever he's touring with right now. Not quite sure who was on the bass though. Really enjoyed myself. And Oruã were quite nice. It's a bit of a blend between Neo-Psychedelia and some shoegazy elements. Bought their current album.

I think he was asking how the concert was. They're touring the 20-year anniversary of KILAS right now.

Ya, like Antagon said, they are touring this summer, playing that album in its entirety for its anniversary. I am quite excited for the show, to be honest, but it's still a few months away over here. That is what I meant by "album show," not as in "promoting their newest album."

And I am glad to hear it's at least a 4-piece again. I have seen them several times, but the last time was just a trio. The swirling and overlapping guitars and textures is what makes live BTS what it is, and as a trio it just did not quite cut it. I am not familiar with the band those players are from though. I might have to go check them out before the show.

GAAAAATCHA....

Great album.

Perfect From Now On, though ...

Feeling angsty, so decided to listen to In Utero again. Listening to someone more angsty than me usually makes me feel better.

Oruã - Sem Benção / Sem Crença

This is a GREAT album! I fucking love it!!

I finally appreciate Confusion is Sex. You've won me over.

Hey, what happened to the original album cover?

I can’t even remember it now, but I feel like it was cooler.

Remember seeing them at ATP and being blown away. Never heard anything of them since though.

I think they had like 3 different cover artworks for this album if not 4. I know, it's confusing.

There's nothing wrong with love is the best one

Melanie Radford?

It was Stephen Gere, apparently. I just saw him listed in the credits of a video someone shot during the gig.
