There’s a good 20-30 minute playlist I’m sure. The whole lot is very smart. And I felt the same with the last Tool and also Nick Cave. |

I like a couple of songs, but I generally don't find Lana Del Rey's music that interesting or compelling, and this album doesn't change that. |

I have always been interested in checking out new albums that interest me and have actively done so for the past few years. I've just had a count through my "2019" albums folder and I have 128 albums in there. Far out. I have a few still to listen to but have listened to most. I really should keep an excel spreadsheet going or something. |

This came out earlier in the year, but I just recently found out about it. Min is a live composition for electronics and synthesizer by Sam Shalabi. He normally works with oud, guitar, patchwork compositions, and large ensembles, so this more minimal approach is relatively new for him. |

The albums that I still listen to regularly; Tedeschi Trucks Band - Signs Tedeschi Trucks Band - High & Mighty Sturgill Simpson - SOUND & FURY (by far my favorite release of the year) The Raconteurs - Help Us Stranger Discoveries of the year, Marcus King Band and Ocean Alley. |

Whatever criticisms of the Lana Del Rey album I've heard, and some are probably perfectly valid, I just can't get over how pleasing it is to my ears. Some of the downright prettiest melodies I've heard in a long time, and not "pretty" in the damning-with-faint-praise sense -- I mean stuff that feels, to me, really and truly elite from a compositional standpoint. I can't bring myself to care to analyze it beyond that. It's just beautiful music. There have been a few other albums that have stuck with me this year (Weyes Blood, Springsteen, Angel Olsen), but mostly I've spent the year listening to a lot of old jazz, even more than usual. That's where the mystery is for me these days |

I discovered Marcus King this year too! Got to see him twice, including a show where he played only material around his first album. They are a killer band and I am looking forward to El Dorado in January. |

Somehow I've forgotten to post about my favorite find of 2019, Kiefer Shackelford, who performs under the name Kiefer. He makes a jazzy kind of instrumental funk/hip-hop driven by piano and bass synthesizer. He put out two EPs this year, Bridges and Superbloom. Bridges Superbloom |

Michael Kiwanuka's new one "Kiwanuka" is a really tough one to beat. Sturgill is right up there though. |

What was a good loud, aggressive rock album from this year? Preferably not metal |

I guess the Black Midi album sort of counts, but I'm looking for something more visceral, less cerebral |
