Satisfaction Skaank? - This ain't the Sherrone Moore thread.

Wow--Did not know Sk@nk was a prohibited word.

I'm with you on War on Drugs. I only discovered them a few years ago and really like their sound. I'm not good at describing music but haunting and ethereal come to mind with them. Just looked at a couple of their live performances this week on youtube and they're great live. I didn't know until recently that Kurt Vile was with them at the start before going out on his own - I like some of his stuff and can see the connection.

I knew they were a Philly band and I don't know if they are considered a Philly sound but it struck me how different their sound is from the Philly sound when I grew up in So Jersey in the 50's-'60's with the Delfonics, Spinners, Stylistics, etc.

They got better and better since Vile left. And the band got bigger and bigger. Although Slave Ambient....the last album he played on by the band...is a pretty good album.
But it's mostly Granduciel....love his guitar. But the sound the band creates is awesome too. And he's created at least a dozen tunes that would make my list of all-time favorites.

Please post songs. That's what this thread has been about for over 5 years

Please post songs. That's what this thread has been about for over 5 years

Why would I do that ?
Anyone can just Google the band or the particular song and presto...lots of videos of tunes by the band appear.
Try it with the songs I already mentioned above or some of my many other favorites by this band.
Try Pain or Strangest Thing or Red Eyes or Thinking of a Place or Under The Pressure. It's real easy to do.
Or you could just Google The War On Drugs and you'll get access to pretty much all of their great tunes.
You don't need me to link it for you. It's easy.
Trust me, if I was able to do it anyone can.
BTW, you gotta try the live version of Harmonia's Dream. I was listening to it while I typed this and I swear I got a buzz. Awesome tune. I gotta go smoke a bone and listen to it with my headphones before the Army-Navy game comes on.

Going to see these guys in Philly this week

Dogpark

 

[knightru]

Saw this local band in Philly and can’t recall if I already shared it here

the happy fits

 

[DJ Spanky]

Awesome new Taylor Swift song:

Interesting history to that song, apparently he's been doing it live since around 1999, but couldn't get permission from the Stones management company to put it out. Lots of pirated versions floating around.

 

[Knight Shift]

New song from John Eddie, now living in Nashville, based for a long time in NJ.

There's a live version of Harmonia's Dream that's currently on You Tube from a show the band did last week in Philadelphia at a club called Johnny Brenda's.
They did shows there on the 18th, 19th and the 20th. The show on the 20th included visits from Kurt Vile and Joe Walsh. After doing two of his own tunes, Walsh joined Granduciel for an absolutely awesome version of the Drugs' Under the Pressure. Both killed it with their guitar work. It's my new favorite thing to listen to.

 

[Knight Shift]

New music from John Corabi, who was singer on a one of Motley Crue's album. Nice sounding guitar rock.

 

[Knight Shift]

Liking the new Alter Bridge Album:

 

[Knight Shift]

New Black Crowes:



Wow, this is good, bluesy rock: AK and the Red Kites

 

[RUShea]

Been listening to The Band Feel a lot lately. They started showing up in my Instagram feed last year and I went and saw them live when they came to town. I'm hooked. Got an old school Zeppelin Black Crowes-ish vibe. Just good ol' rock & roll.

The picture reminds me of Til Tuesday/Aimee Mann.

Sounds a derivative of Peter Murphy



or Iggy Pop, Candy.

 

[bac2therac]

Suddenly its 1993 again im there

I heard this on WDHA and had to stop and park and google their playlist immediately to find out wat this was

Awesome..Alice in Chains are their idols

Not hearing it. There is a real dark metal band called Oubliette from Australia that may want to have a word with The Oubliette's attorneys. Can an AI cease and desist letter be generated?

Just played on Altrok, Brookdale's station 90.5 HD2- Traitrs, I was ill, you were wrong. Similar sound

Below is a link to Rick Beato's video highlighting his top ten favorite songs of 25. I love the range and quality of the songs he picked, a few of which were also faves of mine this year, such as the Bon Iver, Been Stellar and Men I trust tunes, and I also loved the Rosalia, Addison Rae and Stephen Wilson tunes and the ones I didn't know were still interesting. Worth a listen.

Uhhhhh, no. It's not a terrible song, but it's so derivative of similar songs that it just doesn't do it for me.

I haven’t heard any of these songs previously. I appreciate Rick’s never ending quest to turn more folks onto jazz, a noble mission. I liked the songs by Mei Semendes, Bon Iver and Rosalia. My favorite newer band that I heard this past year is The Heavy Heavy, a UK band with a fresh type of retro guitar/soul sound:

 

[RUGuitarMan1]

New single release (I Got You) by The Tedeschi Trucks Band, which is my favorite current touring band. New album called “Future Soul” coming out March 20th. Highly recommend hearing them live if you get the chance:

New Rob Zombie--It's heavy.

Just listed to this literally 10 minutes ago. I'll probably pick up the record. Big fan of TTB.

NJ's own Lorna Shore

Geese on SNL over the weekend:

Looks like they were referenced much earlier in this thread, long before they really blew up last year (and before their frontman Cameron Winter released a solo album in late '24 that contributed to the blowup). I mentioned Vampire Weekend in here a few months back, and Geese opened for them for several dates last year. Safe to say their days as openers are done now.

 

[Caliknight]

Stephen Wilson Jr. is pretty awesome. A better Springsteen and not an asshat.

 

[knightru]

The Molotovs released a new album today. If you enjoy The Jam and similar acts — this is right up your alley.

Geese and Goose are two different bands?
Goose is pretty big, and if Geese is different, would think Goose would have objected. Anyway, new Juliana Hatfield. Nice to hear new music from her:

For the record, Goose was formed in 2014 in Conn. Geese was formed in 2016 in NYC. I’m familiar with the music of Goose much less so with Geese. Of what I’ve heard, I found some interesting sound from Geese which I’ll have to explore further. As I always say, “What’s good for the Goose is good for the Gander”.

Heard this the other day and loved it and the comparison to Paul Weller and the Jam is spot on.

Been a huge and growing fan of MJ Lenderman the last couple of years (posted at least one of his songs in this thread) and he just got a pretty incredible accolade with his version of the This Is Lorelei song, "Dancing in the Club," being named Rolling Stone's #2 song of 2025 - it was certainly in my top 5. See the short blurb from RS below and have a listen.

And if you like that jangly, alt-country-indie sound, MJ Lenderman is also in a new band with Waxahatchee's Katie Crutchfield, called Snocaps and they're touring together as co-headliners and I assume will play Snocaps tunes, too. Really like this one, called Heathcliff, from the Snocaps album.

That’s pretty good , reminds me of early ‘70’s Southern California country rock. The guy is from a really good music town, Asheville NC.
