Of ninajirachi - I love my computer, slayyyter - worst girl in america, underscores - U ?

Have you listened to them and if so, opinions?

Bonus recommendation that has nothing to do with the others: Boko Yout - gusto

Omg hi !

Yes I'm aware of 'I Love My Computer' and I've listened to the most popular songs (iPod Touch & Fuck My Computer) but I planned on reserving it for an album of the week (I try listen to one new album every week !). I can easily do it next week as it's been getting more into my rotation lately (extra computer time :p)

I also have listened lots to the 'It's You - underscores 'It's U' remix which kind of served as my reminder to go listen to the ninajirachi album because it's been on my radar since its release lol. This single was so fun while waiting for the underscores album and the single Tell Me (U Want It) released like a week later, lotsa hype for me.

It seems really good and right up my alley with the hyperpop sound and as someone who spends lots of time on my computer (graphic designer)

I didn't actually know Slayyyter at all before Coachella this year but i've heard talk about their sets so they're now on my radar hahah. I'll try listen to their album over the summer as an album of the week meethinks. I really don't know much about them, a vague idea of their sound? It'll be a surprise.

And underscoreeeeeesssss! I was waaaaiting eagerly for this album, had it presaved on spotify (alongside the BTS album that was dropping the same day?! and yes i'm a kpop stan eek) and I made it my album of the week that week and the ARIRANG album the week after haha. My favourite on it has been "The Peace" but I've really enjoyed everything. The songs I've spent the least time with is probably 'Innuendo (I Get U) and 'Wish U Well' but I still like them, when the acoustic guitar starts in 'Wish U Well' I was like :0!!!! classic ending (bc it reminded me of 'Good luck final girl'. Overall I think the 'U' concept as a subject for the album is cool and executed well. 'Wallsocket' had a bigger impact on me but I don't really mind 'U' is really solid and a fun listen.

I'm not that good at being openly critical about music but I'd love to hear your opinions on the albums too! The trifecta is noted to be part of my albums of the week 2026 (AOTW 26) :)

My favorite song is probably bow down or maybe taxes

I was kind of hesitant to listen to them because of their sudden popularity but the hype was worth it! Their sound feels so fresh but at the same time I think they fit in well with this wave of experimental indie rock bands like bcnr, black midi etc.

It’s fun to see a New York band get popular because I looove the 2000s garage rock revival and the earlier punk/new wave scene that took place there!

Anyways that’s my geese talk hope you enjoyed

Ayy geese talk I have enjoyed !!

I started listening to Cameron Winter earlier this year, I did his "Heavy Metal" album as an album of the week in May.

And I found geese thru the single Taxes actually! I kinda knew them at first as the band Cameron Winter's is in, (not to discredit the other members ofc) I think Taxes is really good, I like the music video, love the lyricism, good song. Little tragic lines like these are simple and clever. I like how the note is held for quite a while on "down" as well.

(I've been doing a little sketchbook of lyrics I like for fun, trying out some fake-posca knockoffs and I suppose practising my freehand typography. It's low-stakes and enjoyable.)

I also like 100 Horses and ofc Pays du Cocaine on the "Getting Killed" album, it was my album of the week last week so I'm still on early listens with the other songs.

I watched their live performance of 3D Country on KEXP it was coool. And I've listened to some of their covers;

Justin Bieber's "Baby" - I was kinda obsessed with this and downloaded the song via youtube to mp3 so I could put it on my spotify playlists. I used to hate bieber when i was younger but I actually really like this cover, it's funny bc he's talking about his 13yo first love but it's actually pretty fun and the Ludacris verse nearly sounds like Elvis Presley with the way they've arranged it. Reminded me that in covers your should try make the song your own :)

Talking Heads' "This Might Be The Place"

Bee Gees' "Staying Alive"

I like bcnr and black midi too, I've listened to Georgie Greep's The New Sound album too so makes sense I like this scene / wave.

My own sheep photography to go with your photo :) (I love sheep!)
