I've been mad obsessed with Deer Tick and The Babies for a bit now.

Deer Tick had some demo type things he released on a CD-R called Greatest Hits before he got signed, then re recorded most of them with a band and ruined them.  So, it is hard to get the right versions on you tube, but just get Deer Tick- Greatest Hits if you know where to get stuff.

The Babies are so dope.

Oh, and Parquet Courts are just the best band, but I think I already said that.  Thanks for the tip on them Paul.  Teenage Cool Kids are real good too (that is the main dudes first band.)

Found the right Deer Tick!  Just type Deer Tick Greatest Hits into you tube, here is the first track:

The Hotline:Miami soundtrack is blowing my mind. Slick 80s sounds. Scary 80s sounds. Jesus.

Also the game is impossible. I can't get past the first level because I have shitty reflexes.

Very cool video (watch it).

Remember when there were so many posts on TOUAMB that it made sense to ignore some? Like making this thread so WOMBAT could ignore music posts? Things done changed...

I still don't read the fantasy sports threads. Maybe I am missing important Content.

Tonight I got drunk and listened to The Strokes. I went to see them in 8th or 9th grade and the ad for that concert was the first time I heard of the conceot of "hipster."

recently I played Parquet Courts for my brother and I said I thought it sounded like the strokes but more raw, "didn't you like them? I remember you liking them"...
"yeah in like 10th grade."

harsh bro. harsh.

People always say they sound like the strokes, and like, I see it obviously, but I totally totally don't see it too.

In that vice documentary they did someone asks what they sound like and one of the film crew says they're from New York and sound kinda like the strokes.  The guy who asked what they sound like responded someone has to.  That's my favorite response ever.

I feel like they do some of the same guitar moves as the strokes, but in a way that is less polished/restrained. More punky energy.

I also read that the drummer learned to drum by imitating Strokes records.

I don't think we made this thread so I could ignore it. Maybe we made a movie thread so I could ignore it? I definitely can't keep up with this thread though. It's a really big deal for me to decide I like a band. It takes a lot of research. Clicking on all the links in this thread would be, I don't know, too much of a commitment or something. If I don't feel like I have time to stop and listen and seriously consider, I don't want to do it.

I don't much care for "I don't like this thing that everyone else likes" posts. For the most part, who gives a shit, let people like what they like.

But I gotta say: I cannot get into Courtney Barnett. She has some positive elements (the guitars, mostly), but her speak-singing style is just not a thing I can listen to over and over again. And she's apparently on every freaking podcast I listen to, and I have to fast-forward through it.

Truth, the music choices for the Hotline Miami games are impeccable.

Here's some of my favorite tracks in Hotline Miami 2:

Scattle - Remorse
Perturbator - Technoir
