I agree. Post what you want! I think I'm the only mod that shows up every once in a while.

I loved everything about this. Thanks for sharing!

Well that was delightful. Although I rarely listen to ska, I have often thought about how much fun it must be to be in a ska band

I saw this one the other day. To me it seems silly to make a ranking list for something this expansive. But I'm sure it gets more clicks than if they were to name the article "300 great albums in no particular order"

 

Yard Act performing a song off of one of my favorite albums this year on Later... With Jools Holland

 

New album Frog in Boiling Water is great by the way!

 

New album from Austin, Texas slowcore duo Hovvdy. I love these guys. They're like comfort food for me.

It sounds like we had the exact same day! I listened to those 3 this morning

Oh I had no about P.S. Eliot or that Katie had a twin sister who's also a musician. Cool stuff. I have some listening to do!

Everything she does is so much fun! And Mac as the ice cream man? Awesome

 

Waxahatchee is back with another great collection of songs similar to her 2020 album Saint Cloud. If you liked that one then you'll like this one.

Yeah i can see the Plastic Beach comparison

 

This album is a pleasant surprise for me! Their debut a few years ago was basic post-punk, which I liked, but it wasn't really special. This album takes that post-punk foundation and throws a bunch of other stuff at it and it works for me. Some really interesting stuff going on here. Check it out!

 

I've liked everything MGMT has done in their career so far and I really appreciate that they do what they want despite the success of their first album.

But my initial impression of this album is that nothing really caught my ear and it's overall unexciting.

However I'll definitely give this a few more listens before completely writing it off since I have trust in these artists and perhaps it's more of a slow burn for me that I'll appreciate later.

Excellent choice. One of my favorites from them

 

I'm enjoying this new album from Vera Sola. It's something a little different for me. Kind of has a classic country western/folk feel. But with a lot of cool orchestration and intense moody vocal delivery.

Fun fact: Vera Sola is actor Dan Aykroyd's daughter.

 

Up and Comer is from Irish band SPRINTS' debut album which just came out a week ago. Also the first 2024 song to get stuck in my head! Enjoy!

 

I love these guys when I'm in the mood for something heavier. This is from their album Land of Sleeper released way back at the beginning of the year.
