Y'all know this is just my opinion, right? What did you think of this album? Love it? Hate it? Why? What should I review next, eh? - Hudba
UMO just sounds like how my heart would make music if it actually had a brain. I know that sounds cheesy, but it's the best way I can describe the feeling they give me. They seem to hit me at a weird emotional middle ground, between sorrow and fun. It's even eerier that he references Uchiko in Austin. It was one of my favorite date spots after I went through a messy divorce. Heavy, I know.
"Between sorrow and fun..." great way to describe it. Agreed.
Alexander Chidester Cheesy? Maybe. But true! Well said.
Alexander Chidester That's awesome, I feel that way too.
I feel like you have a beautiful brain. Id be friends with you
Its less that it sounds cheesy and more that it makes no sense
Cal is coming back.
theneedledrop Don't play with my emotions.
EpickaNESS it's true.
Fantano we want a date as to when this amazingness will happen
theneedledrop My prayers to the dark lord have bore fruit
Are you a fan of the darkness? What do you think of last of our kind?
"Puzzles" is a really genius song. This album takes a few listens, but it is very good.
Great review, Although I will disagree that it's an overly studio sound. In fact you might imagine this from hearing it, but listening to their live set on KEXP, you can actually see that it is their actual sound. I appreciated the album more when I saw that.
4:01 was not expecting him to hit that line so well
You can only tease the Chuchesta for so long before we riot. You're playing with fire, Temptony Dangertano
Review the Fallout 4 trailer.
Foojum I'm feeling a light to decent fuckyes on this thing...
I'm feeling' a mofo 10 on this.
+Foojum too bad fallout 4 sucks ass. :(
@@xMayflyx goat game along with god of war and rdr2
What’d y’all end up thinking of the game?
One of the best albums I've listened to.
I'm feelin it.. I dig the production. The songwriting is spot on. A few things stand out to me about this record, namely the instrumentation and the production. It just has a distinct flavor you know? Lot of personality. Feelin it.
I love UMO - they have become one of my favorite new bands. I own everything they have ever put out & I am so excited to go see them in concert this July---it's going to be great, can't wait!!!
Is that Mingus Ah Um in the background ? Pretty Awesome.
Yet another reason why I make sure I watch everything Anthony puts out. I had never heard of these guys before and just listened to their album (like 5 times already) thanks to this review and I really like it! Now I am trying to find more music from this genre, so if anyone has some cool suggestions please let me know haha :]
Go for bands like Ariel Pink and Connan Mockasin. Both have good lo-fi psych sounds
Dude you rock! So articulate and knowledgeable. Thanks for doing these ! Only suggestion - maybe some analysis of lyrics! Hugs from Canada.
I love the song 'necessary evil', when I was listening to it, I thought it was a band from the 70's, absolutely great sequence of harmony and feel. Great band!
I really enjoyed this album. The lo-fi flavor goes so well with the bumping beats on some of these tracks, and the song writing is a big leap forward from their previous work. Good stuff.
I saw UMO in 2011 when they opened for Weezer, I they had a really fantastic performance. They have that type of nostalgic retro-y sound to them that I really enjoy, I love the chill feel of their music. And I love love love the style their vocalist brings.
Where's the Sex & Food review melon
perhaps review "crazy yes dumb no" by the mint chicks.. it's a classic
Review suggestions:
_The Desired Effect_ by *Brandon Flowers*
_Before We Forgot How to Dream_ by *SOAK*
_FFS_ by *FFS*
Another solo from The Killers' singer, a new album from a talented girl, and Franz Ferdinand and Sparks team up.
I. AM. OB. SESSED. WITH. THIS. ALBUM. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Hey Fantano. Did you realise UMO is just one guy? Ruban Neilson. Brings the band on tour. I was surprised you didn't mention the horns on this record. Adds a nice touch.
Wow the print on your shirt looks so FRESH AND CRISP
"If we were just strangers then we would fall in love again..abandon extreme wealth and casual cruelty." For some reason I keep hearing D'angelo singing this line. I know I was not the only one hearing the Neo Soul influence on this album! Stevie Wonder and Prince were the love parents for "Ur Life One Night". Spot on!
puzzles outro is everything ive ever wanted from music
I saw that Mingus vinyl in the background, am I the only one? Love your vids too! 👍👌
I, for one, am glad that the mustache is back.
Ayyyyyyyyyye, is the gay kid who is in love with sellthony outtano! How you doing man? Haven't seen you in the comment section for a long time. How would you rate his moustache? I personally give it a cal/10. And you?
***** im trying to talking to him bitch but he he won't respond ;((((((
Nice review but I wish you would review the other album visible in this video aka Mingus Ah Um or maybe Black Saint and the Sinner Lady. Basically anything by Charles Mingus.
Gotta agree with you on the ending to Stage Or Screen. Though the song is actually one of my favorites! I kind of imagine Like Acid Rain and Stage Or Screen as a duo. Really catchy and sticky, yet a couple of the shortest tracks.
I loved it. The production is on point and way better then the previous two records. I think the mix of funk and new wave fits them perfectly. Very solid album.
Just did the dishes and listened to this album and I liked it a lot especially the track Extreme Wealth and Casual Cruelty. Basically it's UMO II with added disco and Stevie Wonder touches. Some Beatles too. I love the production and I think the main guy has a great song writing style and really cool guitar work. If there were any minuses I might say the overall neat grooviness leaves things sounding maybe a bit inconsequential but it was only a first listen. How does anyone sell any music when everything's on CZcams?
Any chance you're gonna review the new Snarky Puppy/Metropole Orkest album??
I third and fourth and fifth this
1 10, 3 9s and lots of 8s for you so far this year Fantano, you must be loving music right now bro.
Umo did a great job here, especially in production, and Multi -Love is my song of the year .
I have a few releases from this year I would like to hear your opinion on:
Leprous - The Congregation
Mew - +-
Snarky Puppy & Metropole Orkest - SYLVA
Gavin Harrison - Cheating the Polygraph
And also a few Dream Theater reviews wouldn't hurt.
Also hoping for a review of the new Tame Impala album when it gets out!
Help me Cal you're my only hope
Ive often enjoyed Ruben's acoustic acoustic versions of songs over the album's recorded versions...
and speaking of low -fi, he even plays a pretty cheap Yamaha acoustic guitar, and ironically makes it sound great lol
You forgot this is cryptic funk power poetry being broadcast from the radio intellect of Elves in Hyperspace.
This one is more consistent than "Currents" but best tracks from "Currents" edge out the best tracks from "Multi-Love". Both solid neo-psych records.
Funny coincidence, right before I saw your comment I was about to type the exact same thing
Idk I happen to think Currents a more well-rounded album. But both are great and have different vibes. With Currents, Kevin Parker went all-out futuristic, it sounds like album from outer space whereas Multi-Love embraces more elements of psych-rock from the past. So one is calling back to psych routes a bit more while the other is completely abandoning them for an entirely new sound.
What track on Currents compares to Multi-Love?
Love UMO, I liked the previous album a bit better bc it had more of the low fi sound that I dig of their's.
Still it's an album worth a week on repeat. Good stuffs.
Just gonna let you know right now Mr. theneedledrop. I love the goshdarn heck out of Universal Themes and I don't give a frick what score you give it. It is a 10/10 in my heart.
I really enjoyed this album,
thanks for reviewing it. glad you liked it.
Anthony you should review Cal!
Cameron Lillyman he's dead, but coming back.
Oh I'm glad he's gonna, I don't really know if I understand the appeal to the album. It'll be cool to hear him talk about it
It wouldve been nice for you to make note of the fact that Ruban Nielson is to UMO just as Kevin Parker is to TI or Chaz Bundick is to TYM... One man production crew to record and a group of friends coming together to flush the songs out live.
Album is insane amazing! Sounds like it headed down the same feel as Toro Y Moi's new album but kicked up the funk-fi to 11.
Hey Anthony! Can u recommend me any other Psychedelic bands that u think are awesome? Thanks, great review loved the album
You should do a track review of Ghost's new single 'Cirice', you've reviewed Ghost's stuff before and I'd love to know what you think about their newest track!
Please review Surf - Donnie Trumpet & The Social Experiment :)
I second this
Luke James has a review up now. Head over to Luke's channel.
i recommend givin the new Ghost track a listen and maybe track review. I really, really enjoyed it, best metal track ive heard in a while.
AbraxasGrey no
hejeval777 yes
Review Shahmen - All In The Circle and/or Thee Oh Sees - Mutilator Defeated At Last
Tom Servo In favor of Shahmen's review. Thought they quit but was pleasantly surprised by this release.
I don't think he's reviewing the new TOS album :(
Hey it's my cousin Cat Chuchesta! You shtill owe me seven bucks for getting doze Fancy Feast stains out of your sweater at da dry cleaners!
Ok so I'm new on Anthony's channel, can someone please explain to me what's the deal the Cutchena persona who is always stuck in a frame (who was a cat in this video). I'm honestly lost and out of the loop on this one.
Ruben is for sure my favourite NZ artist, possibly one of our best ever
this album is simply a masterpiece
Yeah the last track is the one I hate. The entire album is just straight up singles, the filler tracks are singles to my ears.. insane musicianship and creativity with this album. perfect mix between soul and psych music. 10/10
last track is one of the best by far
Agree with Dylan. The outro which feels like it could go on forever, and does go on a surprisingly long time, but also somehow doesn't outstay it's welcome and helps ease you back into the real world gently...
This album made me tune my guitar down half a step lol
REVIEW Ego Death - The Internet WHEN IT COMES OUT, I WAS SO BUMMED THAT YOU DIDN'T REVIEW FEEL GOOD D:
Not sure why you didn't review "Rituals" by Other Lives but I really wish you would've, lol.
We getting a Sun Kil Moon review?
You should try and get this record on vinyl. I found one that had this sweet pink splatter pressing! P.S. What happened to vinyl update?
But I like Cat Chuchesta...
They are from New Zealand too
consider reviewing Obsequiae - Aria of Vernal Tombs
Nice review my good man!
Love this album. I wish he talked more about the lyrical themes tho
I suggest you Delta Sleep, a math-rock band really valid. Debut album out 15th june, maybe you can review it.
Whoa, there's a caterpillar above your lips! You trained it to stay put... that's super impressive!
Please review Jamie xx and Florence!!!
Jamie XX - In Colour, Major Lazer - Peace is the Mission, Donnie Trumpet - Surf!!!
Can you PLEASE review "Devil" album by LydiaBand it has to be one of my favorite albums ever and i would love to see you review it!!!
I love like acid rain. I could jam to it all day. Hell I am jamming it to it all day so far.
HEY i know its decently old but could you review beartooth-disgusting? id love to hear your opinion on it.
Don't be sleeping on that Surf review Chancethony Rapptano
Do you feel like sometimes you listen to TOO much music?
oh wow, i was sure you were gonna give this a light 6.
I think you should review The Night Took Us In Like Family by L'Orange!
Review In Colour pls?
Fucking great album, can't stop listening to it.
👍
Anthony, how come when an album gets an 8/10, it's always only a light 8? Do you have a problem with decent to strong 8s?
I don't think I'm showing you anything new. But you really should review "Riddles are Abound Tonight" By Sausage. I would love to hear what you think about it.
0:57 poor cat. He's sad that you aren't pleased with him, Anthony!
still didn't research enough to see that it's one dude, from new zealand relocated to portland? the live band doesn't really record on the records. idk, i think this stuff is important to know before going into an album. helps you respect an aesthetic a little more, dissolves biases etc
sick stache, sick shirt, sick album
i'm digging it
Dreams Never End
jamie xx?
John Smith coming.
theneedledrop i predict a 5/10
John Smith doubt he'll say anything more positive than the resident advisor panning.
please review oblivion access when it drops i love you
Show me your hifi setup. I'm curious.
Will you be reviewing slaves' new album 'Are You Satisfied'?
Hey Dudethony, are you gonna review Jamie XX's In Colors?
Review Surf by Donnie trumpet and the social exprienent! Please!
Please do Universal Themes by Sun Kil Moon!
Why won't you review Donnie Trumpets "Surf"?
solid, interesting review
Yo Fantano, review Predatory Headlights by Tenement.
Are you gonna review Surf?
I'M DIGGIN THE SHIRT MAN
Review Surf-Donnie Trumpet and the Social Experiment
Head over to Luke James. He's done an awesome review already.
Was that Creationist Cat???
I hope our Lord Chin Chin has made sure Cal stays safe with the Damon
Hey how come you didn't review Oddisee's the good fight? It was a great album, first time I've heard someone rap in 5/4 time...and make it sound good
have yet to get into this group and I love Godspeed, Explosions in the Sky, Tarentel, and Sigur Ros. Is this a good place to start with this band?
UMO's pretty far off from post-rock, they're psychedelic with a funk twist
I don't see what those band have in common with this band?
David Rothschild I think II would be a better start for you
David Rothschild if you have to ask such a question you're better off not listening to them
David Rothschild Go in chronological order like you would with any band
Been waiting for Surf. Come on acidthany raptano!
