I don't listen to music anymore.

As good a year as any, IMO

Even just from artists I already knew I could make a rather solid top 10 already.

if it weren't for your post months ago, i'm not sure i'd have found Jake Xerxes Fussell.

that's been a good one from this year.

Been listening a fair bit to Texas Moon an EP by Khruangbin & Leon Bridges - Pretty good

Especially dig the last track on here - Mariella. Love the guitar tone

i've been listening to Bummer Year by Good Looks virtually non-stop the last couple of days.

solid 90s alt-rock vibes.

Glad someone else is finally acknowledging this record.

it's so fucking good. i checked their Bandcamp page to see if they had anything else, and i found out they're playing some random venue in eastern Oklahoma.

too bad it's on a weekday, so i won't be able to make it out to see them.

talk about a real bummer year.

I thought the Porcupine Tree album was a little patchy. Probably just personal preference, but a number of songs seem to meander needlessly before kicking off. That kind of song structure isn't new for PT, but they've executed it better in the past. It's a great sounding album, though. The production is immense.

7 track or 10 track version?
i prefer the expanded one
not their best work for sure, but i really liked it, it sounds so good

This chorus is pummelling me. Emily Haines is unreal.

New Clutch drops 16th Sept. Hopefully the bops slap just as hard as the album cover.
