Lets see.

I started off this week by seeing Tyler, The Creator. It was a sort of strange show, I felt old, people seemed to be more obsessed with Tyler than with his music (he kept taking pictures with peoples iphones from the crowd). It was at a small venue which was great but it was only Tyler so he kept cutting off songs after a few verses cause they were collabs with others. He intro'd Yonkers by saying he "fucking hates this song". Other track links for those unfamiliar: Bastard, Goblin, and Sandwitches

Musical style: offensive violent rap.

There really isn't anything new I've been listening to this week, but here goes:

* videosforpictures - Might have posted them before, been listening to them a fair amount this week. They are releasing a new album and it sounds good so far. They are sort of lo-fi noisey folk. Tracks: The Drop pt. 1, Dried Out and Hotel Prison

* Fidlar - Seeing these guys in a few weeks and so incredibly excited for it. It should be a great show. They make such perfect punk with a bit of dance and surfer feel brought to it. Tracks: No Waves, The Punks Are Finally Taking Acid and Max Can't Surf. Max Can't Surf is definitely their most radio friendly song in my opinion, so catchy.

* Car Seat Headrest - I think this is the only music I "found" this week. Reuse the Cels really wowed me when I first heard it and I bought the album based on that (for my named price of $5). The rest is the fairly good, I recommend just giving that track a listen and seeing what you think. It is sort of alt rocky with a lot of echoy reverb.

* Honorable mention: Meowtain - Amazing name, pretty good music (lo fi pop).

Oh my lord this Fidlar stuff is laid-back. I haven't heard lo-fi captured this well in basically ever.
