Actually, you can. I've seen them live performing Quique a month ago and to be honest, it was quite an awful performance. Very disappointed.

EUGENE GOT ME HOOKED ON ROLO TOMASSI

https://youtu.be/63guoWW5Y3E

ah shit it is gooooooooooood

really satisfying the way deerhoof used to satisfy—in their latest album (the only one i’ve heard so far) i hear the joyous blend of prog and hardcore and metal and the loud/quiet/loud dynamic on a whole new fucking level.

last night listening to time will die i was thinking of the story of jimi hendrix’s “manic depression” (he wrote that song cuz someone told him he played “like a manic depressive”), and thinking no no no, this is the real manic depression

loved it

need more now. NEED MORE NOW.

:o I'm so, so, so glad you like it man, I wasn't sure what you'd think.
They rule hard, and yes, the new album is probably my favorite so far. They're one of those bands that makes you excited about music again.

WELL, I've been mentioning them on here since 2007, glad you paid attention :mad:!


haha, kiddin' (even if it's true, I just checked my posts about them), I'm glad someone else is catching up with their releases.
Well done U-genie.

ha ha ha, im sorry i must have spaced it

in 2007 i think we were still ripping and sharing yes? there was that yahoo group.... otherwise one had to go to a store, and look, and find stuff, and then figure how to split the money between all the wishes...

what can i say, access is better these days

but hey! better late than never, right?

belated belated thanks

nicfit 12.12.2018 01:57 PM

aaaah, the yahoo group! we're old, aren't we?
It feels weirdly good to be kinda "back" here for a while.
And yes, it sure is better late than never, also because their releases are pretty consistent and it's not a case of "oh, you should just listen to their debut, now they're shite..".

Bytor Peltor 12.12.2018 04:13 PM

hey nic, good to see ya coming around

btw i looked for other instances of "rolo tomassi" on this board and there were none earlier except in someone's show attendance list posted 2016

maybe you posted pictures not words... e.g. like eugene's cover above

now starting from the more-or-less beginning (the untitled ep is not on apple music looks like)

 


rolo tomassi - hysterics (2008)

nicfit 12.12.2018 07:00 PM

You gotta use advanced search, rolo as keyword, show posts (rather than threads) and my username. Results:

http://www.sonicyouth.com/gossip/sea...archid=1923600 (Dunno if this link works, but you can replicate the search with those directions). Not trying to prove a point, eh, just explaining how I found them out coz my first search came up empty and I was kinda puzzled (till I remembered how you have to dig into the advanced search to find stuff in here)

The Next Day, then later today, and I'm done with David Bowie's studio albums.

nicfit 12.12.2018 07:26 PM

Btw, I’m listening to this, never ceases to amaze me:
Suffocate for fuck sake - Blazing Fires and Helicopters on the Frontpage of the Newspaper. There Is a War Going on and I'm Marching in Heavy Boots

 


Their bandcamp: https://suffocateforfucksake.bandcamp.com/
If you are lazy the full album is on youtube too: https://youtu.be/Cj6LDz646rc

Did you spend some time with the other two of the big three?

(“Station to Station” and “Low”; those + “Blackstar” = my Bowie Trinity.)

I've been working through the discography over the last few weeks, intermixed with other bands (my preferred method of listening).

Low is absolutely the best; it's one of the albums that's on my 'to purchase ASAP after Christmas' list.

Haven't listened to ★ in ages (it was the first one I did), but I remember I quite enjoyed it. Most of the rest have just blurred together in a haze, there's a lot of Bowie.
