As someone who’s gotten sucked into the local scenes of the northeast. I highly reccomend to go see your local acts. You’re bound to fall in love with one of them. And having that connection while they grow is priceless. Listening to music is cool, but you can also be a part of it. It’s amazing.
How did Alex G’s “huah!” on “Blessing” not immediately come to mind? Anyway, this record is great, but for every 8 Anthony gives, the more curious Blue Rev’s “light 7” becomes.
feeble little horse is the goat. their first EP 'modern tourism' slaps and it has some great B sides on the bandcamp release, including a cover of when you sleep. FLH til i die !!!
I'm so stoked to see this band getting such recognition!! I played on the same bill as them at their 2nd show ever back in August 2021, and they've been killing it ever since 🤘
@@elijahadams350 they didnt seem super gazey when i saw them (i think it was their 2nd or 3rd show or something) but it's cool seeing them pop up on show posters
I know right? This album’s production is really good. But I just think they have to up their pen game. Imagine this album’s style but with passable lyricism. That’s album of the year right there. Okay maybe I’m overreacting but still
holy cow I'm so glad to see feeble little horse getting traction. saw them open for Snail Mail earlier this year and fell in love with them since. feel like they have big things in their future, really bummed they canceled their tour tho
I listened to this album this morning on the basis of how interesting your review made it sound and, low and behold, how interesting this album is goes toe to toe with how interesting your review is.
Heard Sweet in one of my hipster indie playlists and enjoyed it. Since it’s so short, I’ll definitely give it a listen! Love me some good shoegaze no matter the age.
After you spurned Mandy Indiana and Water From Your Eyes, I kind of figured this would be the next one to get dismissed - but I’m so happy you loved it! Such an intimate yet creatively expansive collection of songs
PLEASE LISTEN TO The Girl, The Cat, and The Tree by LAUSSE THE CAT. the production, lyrics, themes, and story telling are top notch for being fairly unheard of. It is LAUSSE THE CAT's only album but I think its one of the best British rap albums I've ever heard
YEAHHHHHH FLH!!!!!!!!!!!! this album and their first record had been on constant rotation for me. i really hope this gets them some recognition because i wanna see them live so fuckinf bad but no one rly comes to st louis
I was listening to this yesterday after seeing the very good critics in the different blogs, it's a very good album indeed! They are so young and talented
I swear 90% of the music I've liked this year sounds like loads of words put in a random word generator "I loved the new Boss Baby ft Aiken Jointz song - Pancake Accelerator"
My friend recommended this to me when it came out and I didn't really listen to it till a few days ago, I haven't been able to listen to much else since god knows why it's just in my brain
I'd be interested in hearing a review of a symphonic metal album, I don't think you've ever reviewed one? A couple of examples from major symphonic metal bands are Nightwish's "Endless Forms Most Beautiful", and Within Temptation's "The Heart of Everything".
I saw this band live along with soccer mommy opening for snail mails valentine fest. (Amazing set and only 350 occupancy at Ottobar one of the best venues ever) FLH was pretty good but I never could have seen them being as good as they are in the album. I’m hoping they become more comfortable on stage. The new indie rock renaissance with bands like momma, flh and horsegirl is amazing especially to one who wasn’t a fan of the indie electro or whatever sylvan Esso is (so many people love them but I don’t understand.) I’m hoping that this new direction gets some more traditional indie fans as many shows lately have has such a bad crowd (Alex g + phoebe + etc)
@trapd00rspider yeah it was awesome, Sophie did an acoustic set with the hits + the debut of Switzerland live. It was a mystery until I saw her come in with a pizza box lmao.
They are dazed like few others, the only band they remind me of, not musically, but precisely for the type of mood are the Flaming Lips. Great couple of albums imho, great review of course.

I'd agree, but it'd make it very rare. He should add more colors if that the case. 1 and 2 red, 3 and 4 orange, 5 and 6 green, 7 and 8 blue, 9 and 10 yellow.
I feel like part of the yellow flannel though is to get clicks on his videos. If it's either 8, 9 or 10 then it creates more mystery and someone will be more likely to click on it just to see what score the album got. If it's only reserved for 9's and 10's then the score is much more predictable and less people will watch his videos.
Well, the yellow flannel just means he loved an album, as they all get added to his Loved Playlist. I’m also pretty sure he’s worn it in “strong 7/light 8” reviews before. The man can’t control how many albums a year he ends up loving/hating lol.
I love how Fantano called 2023 mid and the entire universe came together to prove him wrong
the past 2 weeks have been incredibly stacked in terms of releases
4 IN A ROW
And he hasnt even reviewed King Gizzard yet 😱
The yellow flannel wave said not this year, melon
Wait till he reviews king gizzard and the not to mention there’s a new swans record coming out on the 23.
there have been a lot of yellow flannels recently. thank you for giving me permission to listen to these albums anthony ❤️❤️
Anthony: 2023 has been mid
Also Anthony: 7 yellow flannels in June alone, and the month isn't even over yet
The Pittsburgh indie scene is so underrated.
Actually I have no idea, it's just something everybody says about everywhere.
Shin Guard was amazing, at least.

Wow, I'm so happy this album got the yellow flannel. It's well deserved for sure.
I'll listen to it tomorrow
I haven‘t listened to it yet but I disagree.
😂
It's incredible
How did Alex G’s “huah!” on “Blessing” not immediately come to mind? Anyway, this record is great, but for every 8 Anthony gives, the more curious Blue Rev’s “light 7” becomes.
That was my immediate thought when he said that. The way that HUAH tore through my soul when I first heard Blessing.
i thought of the stooges & a buncha other old garage rock bands. but alex g really can’t be clocked wow. his influence grows n grows.
That's exactly what I was thinking midway through this review!
Blue Rev was mid tho
Came here to say the same thing
feeble little horse is the goat. their first EP 'modern tourism' slaps and it has some great B sides on the bandcamp release, including a cover of when you sleep. FLH til i die !!!
"There hasn't been many good drops recently"
Gives five yellow flannels in a row on the same week.
I'm so stoked to see this band getting such recognition!! I played on the same bill as them at their 2nd show ever back in August 2021, and they've been killing it ever since 🤘
Love seeing some familiar pittsburgh faces in the comments! Feeble little horse deserves every little bit of recognition
Pittsburgh's shoegaze scene is about to explode and I am LIVING IT UP.
Fax
tbh there arent really many shoegaze bands here lol. we got silver car crash and feeble little horse. mostly hardcore bands tbh
@@meltedusb7533 you havent heard ex pilots and gaadge?
@@meltedusb7533bruh what about james castle? it doesn’t get anymore shoegaze then them
@@elijahadams350 they didnt seem super gazey when i saw them (i think it was their 2nd or 3rd show or something) but it's cool seeing them pop up on show posters
she’s upgraded her basket of fruit
Freak is one of my favs on the whole album, incredibly catchy imo

@@grasseater7374i like the lyrics
@@grasseater7374 Calling the writing on this less than passable is wild

I love seeing pittsburgh music get more recognition. The local scenes have some really talented acts!
Pittsburgh's diy music scene is an absolute gold mine
The scene is great, you guys ever listen to brightside?
i agree. although you have to sift through a lot of bullshit to find like the good good bands when it’s good it’s great
yay for more Pittsburgh bands getting recognition! we have an amazing scene that so many people totally ignore or don't know about ❤
Yo Sherry what’s good!!

Oh hell yeah, their debut was fantastic, glad to see they’re keeping it up and Anthony is giving them they recognition they deserve
FOUR yellow flannels in a row? That's gotta be a new record
Ah, another positive review from my favorite youtuber, Anthony "2023 has been mid so far" Fantano.
I love how stacked this year has been so far
After you spurned Mandy Indiana and Water From Your Eyes, I kind of figured this would be the next one to get dismissed - but I’m so happy you loved it! Such an intimate yet creatively expansive collection of songs
Pittsburgh loves you too, Anthony.
PGH DIY represent! I saw them live the day after the album release, they were great
PLEASE LISTEN TO The Girl, The Cat, and The Tree by LAUSSE THE CAT. the production, lyrics, themes, and story telling are top notch for being fairly unheard of. It is LAUSSE THE CAT's only album but I think its one of the best British rap albums I've ever heard
This is one of my favorite indie/showgaze bands out there. Really beautiful stuff.
Dude this is so surreal, I remember hearing about these guys when they were just a local band of college kids, it was like a year and half ago
They played a house show on campus like 2 months ago lol
YEAHHHHHH FLH!!!!!!!!!!!! this album and their first record had been on constant rotation for me. i really hope this gets them some recognition because i wanna see them live so fuckinf bad but no one rly comes to st louis
seeing flh play dingy ass basements last year to seeing this in my recommendations tday is CRAZYYYY
There’s been so many yellow flannels recently that scrolling through this channel is like passing the banana section at the grocery store.
SHOUTOUT PITTSBURGY
Damn I just discovered them recently. Solid band
Their first album is really great as well!
@@horsetorso9232 Yess. I bump Dog Song 2 almost every day.
I was listening to this yesterday after seeing the very good critics in the different blogs, it's a very good album indeed! They are so young and talented
Love this record. I get more of a Swirlies vibe than MBV, though. Hope they reschedule their tour soon!
I swear 90% of the music I've liked this year sounds like loads of words put in a random word generator
"I loved the new Boss Baby ft Aiken Jointz song - Pancake Accelerator"
Thank you for introducing me to this album. One of my favorites this decade now.
I’m just gonna assume every yellow flannel for someone I’ve never heard of is gonna be an 8/10
This album really took me by surprise when it came out. Let the yellow flannel extravaganza continue!
1:49 never heard a hugh in an indie song yet put blessing in the fav tracks in his god save the animals review
Such a good review! This album is really something, wasn't expecting at all. Will you review QOTSA - In Times New Roman...?
You really think he won’t?
The internet's busiest music nerd
Fantano slowly getting stereogum-pilled. I love it
Me too
So glad you love this album as pgh native ::)
Where do you find these albums I try my best to keep up with new releases but this completely came out of nowhere
self note - subtle vibrato on “Nouns” at 4:27
Sweet/Slide is such a banger of duo of tracks.
2023 seems to be the year of the 8's
4 yellows in a row, 2023 might finally be picking up
My friend recommended this to me when it came out and I didn't really listen to it till a few days ago, I haven't been able to listen to much else since god knows why it's just in my brain
YELLOW IS THE NEW RED

Pittsburgh DIY represent!
I absolutely love this album. I wonder if early Liz Phair had any influence on the band
Thought the same thing. Like a neon soaked May-queen.
fantano finally discovers modern shoegaze
Seeing them the 28th. I can’t fucking wait!
Great suggestion Anthony this is much more my taste. Appreciate you taking that into account.

pittsburgh diy rise up
Based this album is awesome. Sweet is a sick song
One of the best recent albums out there
When does the new Kari Faux album review come out
We love to see Xiu Xiu’s girl achieving a well-balanced diet
They are dazed like few others, the only band they remind me of, not musically, but precisely for the type of mood are the Flaming Lips.
Great couple of albums imho, great review of course.
Killer Mike- MICHAEL
Has there ever been such a yellow flannel streak? ( all 8 or higher in such a short amount of time )
thank god i got the vinyl before fantano reviewed it
Girl with Fish feels like its more of Hayday offered, which is fantastic cause Hayday was so short but so good. It's more of what I wanted.
4 yellow flannels in a row. I don’t remember the last time this happened but it’s been minimum 2 years. 2023 really turning it around.
So many 8s this year!
FUCK YES IM SO HAPPY YOU REVIEWED THIS ALBUM
Melty, bright AND crispy?!?! Now I'm hungry.
4th yellow flannel in a row. I can’t believe what my eyes are seeing 🥹
Steamroller goes hard as fuck
Glad this got a high rating
so many yellow flannels recently. exciting
So this is the "yellow flannel after yellow flannel after yellow flannel"-moment he talked about and hoped for recently...
mentira!! não consigo parar de ouvir freak essa semana toda
Yeah ! I'm glad you gave them a shoutout, they're a great band

Feeble little horse, my family’s nickname for me as a child
He called the vocals on the Wednesday album “forgettable”, but somehow thinks this isn’t?
x4 yellow flannel combo!
LET'S ARGUE: Yellow flannel should be reserved for 9's and 10's tbh
He’s been giving out too many 8’s for the yellow flannel to really mean something again
I'd agree, but it'd make it very rare. He should add more colors if that the case. 1 and 2 red, 3 and 4 orange, 5 and 6 green, 7 and 8 blue, 9 and 10 yellow.
Nah these people are trippin. An 8 means its REALLY worth listening to it
I feel like part of the yellow flannel though is to get clicks on his videos. If it's either 8, 9 or 10 then it creates more mystery and someone will be more likely to click on it just to see what score the album got.

I am curious as to why you haven't reviewed the latest Feist album ("Multitudes"); it's been out for ages.
He covered it in a YUNO Review. He said it was fine.
@@dancerarinz556Thanks for the heads up.
You gotta buy more yellow flannels cos this year is NOT mid
yellow flannel's been working overtime
I cannot wait for king gizz to break the yellow flannel streak
Such an awesome take
10th yellow flannel in the past month, for anyone wondering.
We’re on a 4 yellow flannel streak let’s goooooo
Should review the latest SUPEREGO album - a track with Mali Jo$e - experimental pop alt hip-hop outta Boorloo (Perth)
Best band and album out!
This the year of the 8/10 albums
four yellow flannels in a row!
Nice I agree!
Great album review.
wow he actually reviewed this
4 yellow flannels in a row is crazy
Review the latest Weird Omen Live album Anthony. It's a really good punk album
Can’t wait for the overused: “Anthony if they had named this album ‘a buttplug with a star on’ you would have given it a 10”
Can you review Youth Lagoon already?
