Yeah, will have to see on repeated listens how much substance there is to the songs. Definitively some interesting ideas and a lot going on, could end up being overstuffed. But still going from bad youtube rap to this in a few years is quite impressive, and I thought at least the singles and track with Maruja were very strong
Danny Brown said it made him fall in love with music again
Lomond Campbell remixes of each of the tracks from Dot Allisonās 2023 solo album Consciousology, taking the dreamy psych/folk originals and taking them more in the direction of haunting electronica, not really that similar to Allisonās former band One Dove, but moving in that direction.
Just been alerted to this excellent new release from Lash. Goth-y post-punk tunes, like a moodier and punchier Desperate Bicycles. Really, really into this
Debut album from metal band 7 Year War, released last night at midnight. Loud and heavy and guaranteed to clear the Saturday night hangovers. Have been known to drop Sepultura covers into their live sets if you want a reference point to the genre.
Iāve only heard the first few tracks so far but theyāre so categorically him. He definitely writes songs to make the world a better place. Iām pretty sure heās done a bunch of kids albums too. Love him, and as I say, wish theyād get back together.
2 x discs of early versions and sessions from his first record. A few live takes as well, it seems, which is rare considering he barely played to audiences.
That Quinnie album I posted on Fri has taken over my week a bit.
Itās so lovely, really poetic lyrics, and surprisingly intricate with orchestration. A bit like if Grimes sang over Sufjan compositions?
Definitely one @JaguarPirate or @Konichiwa_Bitches may enjoy
you haaaate sweet carolineee
instant classics imho
It was Alex G, Vines and Disiniblud taking the top 3 spots in last weekās poll.
Also, I appreciate how many posters in this thread formatted releases in the way that makes collating the poll much less hassle, i.e. āArtist - Titleā all in bold. Thank you!
What was good this week?

Havenāt listened yet, but I just noticed Latter have a new EP out. @TKC
Latter - What Lives Inside Me EP
I canāt stop listening to their 2024 album My Body Is My Sickness, itās one of the best and most dynamic punk / post-hardcore albums of the decade. A perfect 17 minutes.
