Listen to my new album, Dichotomania! Matt O'Leary on all streaming platforms. - Hudba
Your commentary on the back half of this video is spot on! I find it so tired when people criticize artists for having a vintage sound/aesthetic. Even with all the praise Everything Harmony got, it felt like there was always an asterisk about that from certain groups of people, and that it was almost viewed more like a guilty pleasure. I genuinely don't see what's wrong with utilizing sounds and techniques from the past. Theres a reason people keep drawing from that well, and its because it simply sounds good. If you can leverage that with interesting songwriting (aka do more than just a pale imitation of a better band) I don't see the issue. Its what sets bands like The Lemon Twigs, Dr. Dog, Weyes Blood, Twin Peaks, Cut Worms, etc. apart from the rest!
Also No One Holds You is absolutely a GOAT Lemon Twigs song
oh definitely agree, noone seemed to realize that it’s an INTENTIONAL aesthetic choice, they CHOSE to sound that way.
Love The Lemon Twigs too 😍 Looking forward to their new album! (and you and your wife's reaction to it 😉)
Also, this is already a classic song for me!
Amazing song can’t wait album drop may
I love this single. Sorry, I have to gush: in the verse, the chord progression and melody (the leap to falsetto) gives me a huge Of Montreal vibe (Elephant Eatery and Aldhil’s Arboretum era-I had wished Kevin Barnes had been able to flesh out more of that style before moving on to his electronic dance phase).
The descending bass of the refrain feels like so many other 70s songs, but I am unable to think of a single example, which is either testament to its ubiquitousness or to the way the Twigs employed it. It works for me.
Brian’s slightly beefier delivery in the bridge gives me a strong feel of The Foundations (Baby Now That I’ve Found You). And then the end of the keyboard solo is a hybrid callback to more Of Montreal-Todd Rundgren…it just feels like they’re saying “We know you loved when you first heard these sounds and we want you to know we loved them too!”
Love this comment. I get a strong Rundgren vibe from it, for sure.
Do Hollywood is not their first album ...
yes it is....
I mean, they’re brothers, so yes they recorded a bunch of music before this. If you asked them, I’m sure they would say this is the first Twigs album.
@@MattOLearyMusic You may very well know this already, but for anyone who doesn’t, their first full-length recording as The Lemon Twigs is the cassette release “What We Know” (2014). A bit of a funny title since they now, a decade later, are concluding that “A Dream Is All We Know”. However, they don’t like it and persistently ignore it. If they allude to it, they don’t mention its name, and have consistently referred to “Do Hollywood” as their first. I personally think the cassette is glorious, but it was recorded before they were signed only because a friend requested it, so I see why it’s not counted. I would however like a vinyl + streaming issue one day, maybe on a box set of the collected works of The Lemon Twigs.
Thank you for awesome content!
i'll bet you're wrong on that ...@@MattOLearyMusic
He can't tell the difference between a clavinet and an organ. 😕
