Father John Misty kinda knocks it out of the park with this new record of his. It's very colorful, funny, catchy, entertaining. It's definitely going to be one of my favorite singer-songwriter records of 2015. Don't skip this one, I'd say. I hope you're well. What else is going on? What have you been listening to? What's your new fav album?
Kendrick will be, for sure.
the pale emperor!
he's performing live near me on my birthday, which is pretty deec.
Have you heard that the Tallest Man On Earth is releasing a new record on 12 may?
Natalie Prass self-titled album is pretty good too. I recommend to visit the album if you didn't listened to it yet.
please review the new peace album, happy people. i'm a bit disappointed by it.
I love you, Fantanobear
He said that "True Affection" is the way it is because the lyrics talks about technological age and not being able to communicate organically nowadays, the melody and beat should be inorganic, and it had to be synths and stuff like that.
I LOVE YOU, HONEYBEARD
Benjamin Braddock how do you wash honey out of a beard?
theneedledrop extra mayonnaise and sunflower seeds. but seri0usly dude you misspelled the track in your D BOX
theneedledrop Get your dog to lick it.
Lol you're write
Hornyboar
I personally really loved True Affection! It did stick out on the album, but it wasn't unpleasant by any means!
Asher Holmes well i'm glad SOMEONE'S digging it. :-)
theneedledrop True that! Keep on making incredible videos man! :)
I didn't like it at first, but it grew on me. I'd love to see it live.
One of my favs on the album for sure.
Also think it's probably the best song on the album and the change in sound dynamic only makes it better and adds another dimension to the album. Quite amazed this song was singled out as being bad, oh well.
You're missing the point of True Affection, Mr. Fantano. The reason it sticks out like a sore thumb (and is electronic) is because the song is about how true emotion and affection cannot be conveyed through technological means.
I'm starting a Save Cal fund. I cannot stand by and do nothing. #freecal
freecal matter
Gary Yudman Nirvana
Gary Yudman You better call Cal
GUYS the tnd patreon is the only way
"When you're smiling and astride me" might be one of my favorite songs of the year.
Drew gorgeous tune
this album's a 9 for me. absolutely stunning. his voice is also strangely reminiscent of Elton John's, which is pretty cool I think.
Yeah I totally agree.
Philip Karlsson I thought the same thing!
Or the bye bye America pie guy
Have you seen his performance of "Bored in the USA" on Letterman? It's quite worth the watch and speaks volumes about the song itself
gellingreg I'LL HAVE TO CHECK IT
theneedledrop cen we make bbies ??
I love how the description says one of your favorite songs is "I love you, honeybeard"
Damn can’t believe The Night Josh Tillman Came to Our Apartment wasn’t mentioned. Super witty and hilarious.
That album will only grow better with time. Great, great album.
+Italia Perez Agree.
Also you're very pretty.
+jaidsalgado dude.
I finally bought the physical copy of this last night, all I could find was the CD, but even that was packaged so so well. It fucking came with entirely too in depth (in a good way) "listening exercises" for every song, and the whole thing is an awesome pop up piece of art. Also it came with a really fold out poster of photos and lyrics which I can't live without. kudos to FJM and Subpop for the packaging of this awesome record - even for the CD version. I don't think I've ever been so happy with a physical copy.
Where'd you get it from? I NEED ONE ASAP
+jaidsalgado any local record store chain should have it. if not check online.
Julius Schueneman Ok thank you!
You can even find it at Target!
lol honeybeard
ARR I LOVE YA, HONEYBEARD, FRUIT PREVENTS SCURVY
Willaporte loooooool. HONEY BEARD THE PIRATE?!?!? XD
theneedledrop Nigga look in your description box
FINALLY I agree with you this year.
Holy Shit is my fav track.
Every time it tunes in you're like, 'HOLY SHIT HOLY SHIT'
+ChewyRibbit Holy Shit is a lyrical masterpiece, really unique.
(Sorry in advance for dredging up an old comment)
That short instrumental break before the key change unironically gets my dick hard tbh
Happy 400,000 subscribers, Poopthony Peetano
Nick Nightingale thanks thanks!!!!!!

There is not such thing like "too much reverb", you can never have enough.
I agree with everything you said except about the track True Affection. I thought it was a pleasant surprise and a nice change up to his usual sound. It almost sounded chillwave(?) at times. Really digging this whole record, great review Antoine Fantonio
Anthony, I love you. You've introduced me into an entire world of music, new and old. You've shown me the more artistic side of it, the grimy side of it, the side of it that I didn't really want to see, everything. You're a god amongst men. BUT JESUS CHRIST LEAVE CAL ALONE #FREECAL
WITH ADDERALL AND WEED IN MY VEINS
More often than not, I typically love your reviews. With that said, "Strange Affection" saves this record for me. The range and ability to go to that Washed Outy sort of place is my absolute highlight! Thanks for the tip on Vinyl Me, Please. I'm officially in!
Oh cool, the album art is by Stacey Rozich, the same person who did the covers for Angels of Darkness, Demons of Light 1 and 2. I'd listen to the album based on that alone, but if vpnthony lantano liked it, I better get on it ASAP
Not to mention she did the music video for Fleet Foxes' "The Shrine/An Argument." It's amazing seeing her stuff in motion.
I thought Fear Fun was kind of a masterpiece myself. I'd give it a closer listen.
you cease to amaze me fantano, the way you articulate your thoughts is so clear and makes it easy for me to tell if the album is something I should check out or not.
You mean *never cease*...
great review as always. I thoroughly enjoy all your reviews. Keep up the good work
Great review. Maybe review some older vinyl like the Art Blakey right behind you? Or post a vid on essentials for blues, jazz, et. Thx keep up the excellent work.
That's the second album I bought because of your review (first one was clipping) and I love it! Such a simple yet pleasant stuff :)
Great review as always, Anthony. Glad to see you're enjoying this as well! LOVE the satire factor on it.
This review only made me that more excited for my Vinyl Me, Please order to get here! Great review, xx
Cool review Shawthony Shanktano. This was on my list of most anticipated records from 2015.
Hey Anthingamajigtano, I recall your Join Us review, and I was wondering if you were going to say anything about the return of Dial A Song, perhaps when it's fully done. Personally I think it's a really nice return to the more TMBG album era songs, Eraser being stuck in my head for a damn long time now.
I'm digging the Art Blakey record in the background. Such an amazing jazz album.
Oh, and this FJM album is also pretty damn good.
I really enjoyed this, I feel like the songs have a lot of meaning and depth that will take a few more listens to understand. I liked the satire in some of songs too.
Will you, or will you not make a grand, epic list of your favorite albums of all time when we, as a group, get you to 500000 subscribers, or better yet, a million? Sure, you deserve it, but we're not just gonna sit on our asses and give your our preciouse, bloody, sweat filled time for you to say 'Thank You. This Kanye West album gets a decent 4.' No, we need something epic. My suggestions. Firstly, free Cal forever. Burn the whack Cal zone, or any Cal zone. Second, review Kid A. Do it. Just shoot the elephant in the room. Finally, the grand list of your top 50 favorite albums of all time. I don't care if it's going to be 3 hours long. I'll watch it, replay it, and watch it yet again. I'll show it to my mother, I'll show it to my imaginary girlfriend, Annie Clark. I'll sbow it to my cousin who's 2 years old. I don't give a shit if he doesn't understand a word. He's Korean, he's never gonna understand. Oh Anthony whyudothistometano, when will you listen to the people. The people who worship you as a god? WHEN WILL OUR VOICES SHAKE THE HEAVENS AS OUR SCREAMS ARE SO LOUD THAT IT WILL MAKE THE DEVIL PASS OUT FROM FEAR! WHHHHHEEEEEEEENNNNNNN!
Also, good review, will check the album out immediately. Sounds pretty good.
His favourite album is obviously going to be Siamese Dream... It's the obvious choice
***** So much love! We must all stand together for a Kid A review. The rebellion must STAART! WE SHALL FOLLOW OUR LEADER CAL CHUCHESTA TO VICTORY! EVILTHANY BADTANO MIGHT SAY WE WILL DIE FASTER WITHOUT WATER! BUT WE SHALL BE VICTORIOUS BY KNOWING THAT IT'S ALL LIES! I KNOW WE WILL WIN! BECAUSE I'M KOREAN, AND KOREANS ARE GOOD AT EVERYTHING!!!!!
***** Must have been a nice person........or a racist, we have those too.
***** At highschool. They got me in here. They won't let go. But someday, I know, that Cal will come here, destroy the teachers with his dope flow, and bring me freedom so I can finally do what I always wanted to do. FIND WHERE THE WILD THINGS ARE!!!!
***** Depressing portrayal of my favorite childhood memories. Just the way I like them. Next time, they should make a dark version of Olivia the Pig.
Cal is so fucking adorable, I can't take it.
I'm very interested to hear what you have to say about the upcoming SUMAC record, Anthony. The full album stream has been promoted on a few metal portals yesterday I think.
Not reinventing the wheel? This is one of the best records of our time. Incredible songwriting and instrumentation. So many amazing songs. ‘I went to the store’ is one of the best love songs ever. God damn this guy is a genius
I might be way out in left field on this one, but I honestly saw "True Affection" as his "trollish" humor shining through a bit. I half agree with you about this track being a commentary on the state of our reliance on technology, but I kind of see it as an Andy Kaufman kind of jab at his fans' expectations (not in a disrespectful way, of course). Tillman exudes this kind of humor in his live performances, and I sort of interpreted it as his way of inserting that facet of his humor on a record.
Keep up the great reviews! You should check out Punch Brothers new record "The Phosphorescent Blues"!
One of my favourite albums in a long time. Hit's me on so many different levels. A very enjoyable and fun listen as a collective
almost a year after first listening to it and this album still makes me feel makes me feel like nothing else
Spot on with the strong 8. I saw the Bored in the USA performance of Letterman (which is fantastic) and immediately preordered the beautiful deluxe, tri-colored vinyl. Really love the sounds and his personality straight addicting. The listening instructions that come with the vinyl are really well written and hilarious.
You gotta (I would like you to, and be positively surprised) review the upcoming Hiram-Maxing album. Going to be there debut, and I'd place it in some punk inspired doom metal-camp. Refreshing stuff!
really, anthony? "i love you honeybeard?" "Chateur lobby 3?" dude, you've got to proofread your descriptions.
Have you considered reviewing Madeon? Young French EDM producer, dropping singles prior to a debut album.
Totally a 9 for me. Thanks for the recommendation.
I'm in the same boat with True Affection. I kind of found it off-putting that he used a drum pattern VERY similar to the electronic drum loop found in Garageband.
I Went to the Store One Day is one of the most beautiful love songs ever written.
This record is the most emotionally honest piece of music since The Antler's "Hospice".
DISCUSS
what a fail lol
patience.
+Jonathan Scott what about Sun Kil Moon's "Benji" ?
Get rekt m9
I loved Hospice. Would probably have to agree with you. Only Hospice is a much more miserable album in terms of emotion.
Wow this is a time machine back to the days where the comment section was normal and Anthony still replied sometimes
Great album! Thanks for the review Anthony!
Please review My Morning Jacket-waterfall! Really enjoyed this review on Father a john Misty thanks!
I personally like the new wallpaper. More vibrant, plus you pop out more from it.
Y U NO Review: Benjamin Booker self titled album, Moon Hooch, Music Tapes: Mary's Voice.
LOL when did wack calzone start??? I missed the L'Homme Run episode I guess...
Perfectly said. Glad I subscribed a couple weeks ago.
Bored in the USA is without a doubt the best song I've heard to come out in 2015 thus so far. Definitely can see it being on my top 25 list at the end of the year.
I would love to see a review of Manchester Orchestra's Cope or Hope!
Had to wait till I finished my review before listening to yours....looks like we have similar feelings about it.
You should really check out The Districts new album, A Flourish and a Spoil. I've been listening to these guys for a while and this new album is just fantastic
i'd have to give it an 8 as well...Holy Shit being my favorite track.
What's the record in the corner of the screen?
Best transition ever. Love the K-9, Dawgtano!
The Phosphorescent Blues by Punch Brothers is the best album I've heard this year. You should review that.
Can’t believe no mention of I went to the store one day, most beautiful song on the album imo and a great closer
I HAVE NOT STOPPED LISTENING TO THIS
please do a review for
Bones & Dylan Ross - SongsThatRemindYouOfHome
amazing piece of art.
You know that moment you finish listening to an album and realize that you probably just heard a masterpiece? Well, I just had one with this record.
hey guys, do any of you know how anthony finds all of this music? any website, music community or something? I struggle to get past youtube/lastfm recommendations :(
Anthony, there's this new band called smashmouth that you gotta look up man.
They have some of the best choruses i think i've ever heard.
I reviewed some of their stuff on my channel. Just tune your tv to channel 9 at 8 pm on the 11th
oh man i missed it
tune in on the 14th
for the re run
This album was so fantastic. My favorites of 2015 so far have been I Love You Honeybear, B4.DA.$$, Xe, Further Out by Cloakroom, The Special Episode EP, and Panda Bear Meets the Grim Reaper (sorry Mr. Fantano but I thought it was fantastic).
Change the wallpaper my man you under the thumb in the relationship? :(
You should check out Moodoid - Le Monde Möö
GREAT and CREATIVE French psych/prog with hints of jazz
Never boring! Came out late last year
princemarleyrox i'll look it up.
Thx for the hint, that sounds gorgeous from your description of the record! Already downloading on Spotify, hopefully I like it :)
Review Bee Thousand... recently reissued on vinyl for the first time in fifteen years.
Those intro skits ate consistently funny.
imma need a review of your dog next time
Blakey's -Moanin' in the back ground. I love that fucking record. Also, even though I also loved his first record, you nailed this review, Infamy FangHangLow.
Philosophy of the World review for the next classic week?
TubeSamurai that would be hilarious.
I'm curious why you choose not to mention Jonathan Wilson as the producer. Probably had a lot to do with the sound you appreciated.
Please do a review on Phony Ppl 'Yesterday's Tomorrow' album
I say review the new debut Misterwives album when it's released at the end of the month.
Honestly, I love True Affection, I really don't know why. Strange Encounter is also very good too.
Please, review The Four Owls - Natural Order, a new LP by a British hip-hop group with a track produced DJ Premier and more dope tracks! It should be released later today (Thursday here already).
Anthony please review Jefre Cantu-Ledesma - A year with 13 moons. I would like to hear what you think of it.
*ahhh my fav youtuber has uploaded another vid. Now i can chill out with a cup of tea and see what anthony has to say about this album! Ok now that i have your attention i thumbs DOWN this video!!! screwballtano dropped the ball big time on this one. John misty back in the day had potential, his singing voice was a head turner and his lyrics were insightful about the lifestyle that he led. But this album fell ill to what i refer to as 'expectation standards' This is a term i use to describe someone that has made a good impact and built a solid reputation, but has caved in to the pressure and ultimately failed to match the expectations bestowed upon him. If you've given this comment a read what did you think of it? did you luv it did you hate it? why? what do you think i should comment on next? Jimmy Burt Gaming...comment quality control, forever!*
That actually came across as a somewhat not completely ridiculous viewpoint..
k den
You used to annoy me. Now I like forward to seeing you. Good job Mr. Gaming.
Jimmy, did you eat world?
Waiting for my vinylmeplease record to come in, before I give this album a listen!
Solid review.
One disagreement though: I don't think Bored in the USA sidesteps the love theme at all. It's very much about the fears and anxiety that come with marriage and settling down. It's the mouthful of bitterness to counterbalance the over-the-top sweetness of some of the songs that come before it.
Hey Anthony have you ever checked out Buckethead?
0:43 The way he says multi-instrumentalist lol
Thank you Rolling Stone for the article i just read on Father John Misty. Had I not I wouldn't have been turned on to this amazing artist. Good shit.Fun stories. Plinky Glockenschpiels?
what is the album behind him on shelf
Saw you on Drunken Peasants, god damn. Such a good question.
Review Pond's - Man it Feels Like Space Again pleaseee!!!
Have you seen the deluxe edition vinyl? holy crap!
It is pretty cool, but I've read that it damages the vinyl and sub pop is having to refund people.
What's the title of the record on the shelf?
What is the album in the background?
I really hope Fleet Foxes release a new album, seems the band is in limbo with no signs of escaping it
Will have to check this album out though
This album, with its' cornucopia of lyrics and soft music set in the background, that feels like it's a score and the David Letterman performance... well it all converges to convey a musical kinda vibe, And by musical, I mean a play on the stage or screen with songs sung by a character. It's all very theatrical. Thanks for your time.
The Temperance Movement's self titled début is coming to North America very soon, check it out!
This is honestly already probably going to be my AOTY. Tillman is a genius, glad you enjoyed it Anthony. What did you think about "I Went to the Store One Day" as the closer?
Patrick Mangiaforte haven't seen anyone mention this track yet. I thought it was incredible, especially the live performance La Blogotheque captured.
