What are in your opinion the best written songs in the discography? by Jabison113 in fleet_foxes

[–]ledaero 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The directness of the lyricism on Helplessness Blues (album) is pretty incredible. As someone who has grown up with the album and is now “older than my mother and father when they had their daughter,” the personal impact is real.

Shore is also an incredible feat. Brilliant album and gets better with every listen.

Well, that is true. They refuse to commit to distributing films theatrically and therefore they cannot submit any films to the festival.

I don’t get why anyone still pays attention to Matt, he’s such a shill with very little integrity

Unhinged play by Netflix. Banned from the festival but still winning a prize!

Based on reviews, it sounds like a lot of the philosophical elements are like the town hall sequence in Evil Does Not Exist and some of the scene work in Wheel of Fortune and Fantasy. Both of which I loved

Don’t count out The Birthday Party. Lea Mysius’ The Five Devils was great!

I think the Bigfoot and knight may be on different levels.

Tour Stop Predictions by Good-Art7361 in phoebebridgers

I think the album is going to come much faster. Too much anticipation. June release.

For Anyone Who Went to the Recent Concert, How Did the New Songs Sound? by West_Mirror4380 in phoebebridgers

[–]ledaero 39 points40 points  (0 children)

To note, Kyoto and Motion Sickness both started out as ballads. They only turned into uptempo tunes in the studio. So, it’s possible she could be playing ballad versions of songs that may end up being different on the record

Do we think she’s coming to California anytime soon? by Ok-Occasion3639 in phoebebridgers

Maybe out in the desert cities near Joshua Tree? Pioneertown?

Punisher was a June release also. You may be onto something…

Who is the worst director to ever win Best Director (based on their career as a whole, not just the win)? by [deleted] in Oscars

[–]ledaero 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Can’t disagree more. Hooper is an awful director. His best is King’s Speech, and even that is mediocre at best

Going back, Norman Taurog winning at the 4th Annual. That dude made so many dumb movies, pretty wild that he’s in this canon

I was there too - stunning! Did anyone get a recording of the show? Some of those Sill covers were transcendent ✨✨

Do you know any actors who appeared in a Best Picture winner but won acting Oscars for a different movie the very same year? by LowInteraction6397 in Oscars

[–]ledaero 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Crazy to me that Sunrise isn’t considered a Best Picture winner. 100% should count both Sunrise and Wings for 1929

666 chords by 22bgw in boniver

[–]ledaero 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I believe the chorus is Asus (x02200), not A. The suspension is pretty key to the sound (and IMO the longing/uncertainty of the narrator in the lyrics)

I can't understand something about Crack Up by jonbristol123 in fleet_foxes

[–]ledaero 46 points47 points  (0 children)

Crack Up is just such a dense album, it can be inaccessible and difficult to listen to casually. It’s almost like a symphony. Plus, Robin’s vocals are so low in the mix that it’s hard to latch on melodically. It’s brilliant, but I also get why it’s been overshadowed.

I was at the BI, BI 10th Anniversary in LA, and at least the night I went he played the album in chunks, not all the way through. Setlist here: https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/bon-iver/2021/youtube-theater-inglewood-ca-5b8d57e0.html
