They turned me off of reading entirely

[Higgs]

"Within the span of one sentence, Pitchfork's review will smear like shit, swoop like a bin chook, and bubble like bile."

[bodysnatcher]

Also the new Andy Shauf.

Both of those are getting a lot of press this week and I think they might both be awesome.

Just listened to the new Andy Shauf. I’m sure there’s more to it and I’m guessing an album that relies more on the lyrics and storytelling, which I wasn’t able to really pay attention to. But man, otherwise it dragged on and on.

Top 10 maybe?
Hello Morning
Close Captioned
The Kill
Place/Position
Do You Like Me?
Latest Disgrace
Recap Modotti
Nightshop
Break
Life & Limb

I'd maybe bump Life & Limb for Epic Problem

I think we can all agree that Scottish bands are the best bands. Scottish band Young Fathers have released a new album "Heavy Heavy" this year and it is pretty enjoyable. Upbeat, bit of pop, bit of fun. Or as Pitchfork put it "Its beautiful, unsettling, messy, at once engaging and combative". Riiight.

Anyway, here's Drum from it. I like it.

[Ello Sailor]

Pretty neat. I'm willing to bet they're partial to a bit of later TV on the Radio.

This was gorgeous btw. Love me some Ryuichi Sakamoto.

The new Caroline Polachek is fantastic

Yesss

She's so good. Pang is an incredible album and a tough act to follow, but she pulled it off

I would like more detailed thoughts about this album from folks.
