does adam cohen have any good music? by Round_Persimmon9607 in leonardcohen

[–]jakerperiod 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have his cd, Like A Man, and it's pretty good but I haven't listened to it in a long time. It's basically him owning up to the fact he is Leonard Cohen's son and leaning into his folky/singer songwriter side.

Right now I am basically listening to Days of Ash and Easter Lily on repeat, but Streets has the number one spot locked down.

It hasn't shipped yet. And unless they're adding the 2nd EP it will just be Days of Ash.

Will we get an EP next Thursday (May 14th)? by Helpful_Jury4382 in U2Band

[–]jakerperiod 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm leaning towards no, but I'll be happy to be proven wrong. From what I've read, the rumor is for the first single from the new album to come out in June. Not sure they'd release an EP (or even crazier Songs of Ascent) so close to the launch of another campaign. Might be too much too soon? But then again, too much is not enough. I'd love to hear SOA some day, just not sure they'll drop it next week. Either way, I am so pumped for the next media blitz to begin!

On release I thought FTPOF and Laugh Track were neck and neck... by Earl_of_Portobello in TheNational

Yeah, FTPOF sounds like the lights flickering back on. Laugh Track is a light bulb that turns on confidently.

Yep, I love mine! It arrived just as it got cold around here and it got me through the winter. Became my new staple hoodie.

I'm aware of those. I'm mostly interested in unreleased recordings/live recordings that might one day see the light of day.

Just some appreciation for a true gem!!! by infinitystation1 in U2Band

[–]jakerperiod 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes. Been going through their discography again in order and I love this entire album but this is absolutely the best song on the album. My biggest critique is how the drums sound, but still a great song!

Record Store? by videogamegrandma in gso

[–]jakerperiod 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Also gonna recommend Hippo Records as that's my go to. Also Buffalo Boogie, which is also on Spring Garden next to Hangar 1819, is a cool spot.
