Been listening to a fair amount of The Fearless Flyers recently.
Incredibly tight and funky:

And some Wet Leg, who I love to bits:

And some Amyl and the Sniffers, which is almost pure attitude:

And a band I just discovered this week, Nova Twins, who really fucking rock:

Very PJ Harvey'ish. Their other stuff rather reminds of Mazzy Star.

Polyphia always sounds like what you'd get if you could play a maths test on a musical instrument. To me, it's devoid of any sort of emotion. But they've redeemed themselves a bit in Ego Death by introducing a solo by Steve Vai

I've been learning guitar over the last year and I'm just in awe of their technical abilities. I wish I had 1/100th the skill of Tim but yeah, they sound like machines.

On a 1 - 10 scale it scores a holy shit when it comes to technical prowess, but yeah, that's about all I can say about it

It's a bit more musical than bollocks like Periphery, and I quite enjoyed that latest one, Ego Death.
But I wish they'd show some sign that they're at least enjoying themselves.
The self-serious posturing winds me RIGHT up.

The other young musical polymath that I'm insanely jealous of, but can admit that he can at least compose something melodic and/or catchy, is Jacob Collier. There's still something about him that I find immensely punchable, but he writes beautiful music, and is a great educator.

Turned it off after 3 minutes. Sounded like someone being incredibly jealous. Or do you think he may have a point somewhere along those 17 minutes?

Nah, yer right, mostly insanely jealous.
Like I say, there is something about Collier that rubs me up the wrong way, and he can be needlessly pretentious, but I won't diss his chops.

In contrast to the butthurt yowler that you posted above Eraser, here's a vid of Jacob playing with John Mayer and Lizzy McAlpine that shows he doesn't just play or sing ridiculously unnecessary and tuneless bollocks.
It's a bit too MOR for my tastes, but he at least shows that he's got the chops to play with John & Lizzy, and his voice compliments the song beautifully:

But for something that I really enjoyed recently, here's the Fearless Flyers warming up backstage. Fuck me, they're tight, and Nate's an INCREDIBLE drummer. Bass drum, snare, high-hat. That's it:

Oi nice to see Lari on here, I've been following her for a few years now. She has mad chops! I haven't bought her latest album yet but the one before that is pretty solid all the way through. Gives me Satch vibes. She has impeccable tone.
