Hop Along, Courtney Barnett, and Car Seat Heardrest are all in heavy rotation for me. I've got Janelle Monae sitting on deck. |

I feel like Sparkle Hard might finally be the album that introduces Malkmus’s oddball songwriting to casual fans. It’s such a well rounded album. |

I like the new Car Seat Headrest and the new Parquet Courts, but both require more listens from me. |

Gaz Coombes of Supergrass fame released a solo this year, World's Strongest Man. As you'd expect, bit of funk overtones here, over a poppy base. At its best it's very good. Here's "Walk the Walk": |

Gave Soccer Mommy a listen on the way home yesterday. Maybe not the best music for a bike ride, but I was definitely intrigued enough to want to listen again. |
