On the new artist end:

 

The new Phantogram is sick people.  

 

"Black Out Days" performance:

 

 

 

You may know them for this:

 

 

 

 

*in a Patrick Bateman voice

 

The band has developed and has a great feel, meshing the clear and the fuzz with a well balanced formula.  With influence ranging in areas of jazz to soul to newer styles in electronic, they simplify yet magnify and overall create well thought out lead, bass and percussion layers.    

 

On the vocal end...a lot of female vocalists nowadays have been blowing up in Lorde and in HAIM for instance but this girl has less of a sense of reservation in the way she sings.  Many female singers tend to stress the vulnerable traits of their voice and it at times can shift the energy but Sarah Barthel of Phantogram has a grunge meets soul feel to her voice that syncs incredibly well with the style the band plays.   

 

Great stuff.  Recommend and am excited about their upcoming album this year.  

 

New single "Black Out Days" a 9/10

 

 

 

On the discovered record(s) closing note:

 

Passed through Five Points in Columbia, SC the other day and found some gems at a local record store buried in the 5$ and under bins: 

 

"Thick as a Brick" by Jethro Tull

"Trilogy" by ELP

"Surfin' Safari" by the Beach Boys

 

All great albums. Latest fixes on the table: "War Heroes" by Jimi Hendrix and the new Arctic Monkeys.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      Yeah they were bad QBs - but QB's that stayed on their teams for several years.  BY is better than all of those.

      This is the right move even if you think Bryce isn't the future. Everything except signing him to a long term deal until proven otherwise. There's a decent chance we have a shot to draft a QB next year that we like.

      If we're still bad enough that Canales gets fired, especially if it's during the season, there is no way we could ever attract any HC worthy of the job if we told them they had to keep Bryce their first year. That would be 2 coaches he's gotten fired and 4 years of not performing up to par. I still say replace both of them next offseason.  I like Canales the man and I think he's done an absolutely outstanding job at fixing our locker room issues, as it was really bad before he showed up.  But I just don't see it from him with his in game decision making, I think he's held us back just as much as Bryce has, just in different ways. Canales was our Dan Campbell, the coach you hire to turn the franchises culture around for the HC after them to inherit and take to the next level.   The difference was he had some elite coordinators early on and really let him focus on his "leader of men" role as opposed to the X's and O's that Canales does himself and it's turned out well for him.
