Cloud Nothings dropping a new album tomorrow and sounds like they have another to release after that, one they actually recorded together instead of remotely
EP is out today via Single Lock Records! It represents a lot of late studio nights, conversations in tour vans, etc. And it’s just the beginning. Play it loud. Fly with the Bird. Stream it wherever you stream. https://orcd.co/speckledbird https://speckledbird.bandcamp.com/releases Speckled Bird is a Muscle Shoals-based indie rock band made up of players that tour with Alabama Shakes, Cedric Burnside, John Paul White, Lee Bains & the Glory Fires, Belle Adair, The Prescriptions and Nightmare Boyzzz. Recorded over multiple late-night sessions at Portside Sound (formerly Muscle Shoals Sound Studios), this is a collection of musicians shaking off the current sound of Americana to make music like what they grew up with.

thought The Waterfall was pretty solid actually always like it when bands are just all oh hey here's a new album out of nowhere enjoy
Bully - Every Tradition the single she released last month (Where to Start) is probably my favorite song of the year so far. Can't wait for this album
Also, I liked it. Magic Bullet, Wasted, Climbing The Ladder, Getting Back all great. I do reserve the right to change my opinion or add other songs though.
Where it at? I thought I remembered one from back in the day but couldn't find when searching earlier.
Feel You and Wasted are both incredible songs. The rest of the album is great as well. A good deal better than Waterfall 1 imo.
Finally giving the Pure X album a listen. I remember loving Fantasy when it was released as a single. Didn't realize the album dropped a couple months ago.
Got a casual listen in first thing this morning and now my Spotify won’t launch on my mobile. Pain in the ass.
Feel You, Magic Bullet, and Wasted are all going to be incredible live songs. I can just imagine Jim and Carl shredding for 5 minutes on that last part of Wasted.
These are definitely my top 3 after the first listen. I don't know that I'd agree on it being better than The Waterfall. The Waterfall was *almost* a concept album, I felt. There's maybe 1 song off 2 that would sort of fit that theme. Calling it The Waterfall II is kind of a mistake, imo, but I get why they did it. You can certainly tell that most of the songs off both were recorded close in time to one another.
