Hey snatch, are you a Karl Blau fan by chance?

yeah, dig Karl Blau for sure

Man, the new Mount Eerie album is fucking brutal, but good. I dunno how I feel about listening to this. I fully appreciate the cathartic release of art and music when dealing with emotions, but man, I feel like I'm unknowingly reading someone's personal journal.

I felt the same way while listening to it, it is quite great, but fuck

Shockingly - Im digging the new Craig Finn album. Definitely a departure musically for him.

It's pretty damn good. Second listen and I'm digging it.

New Kendrick Lamar looks as though it's going to be pretty solid.

I was soured on Milk Music after their last record, sorry for the bad pun. But fuck their new one Mystic 100s kinda rules folks. Very werid, very inspired and pretty much everything you'd want in a rock record nowadays.


Just gave the new Cold Beat record a shot today. Took a few seconds to get acclimated, but I'm hooked. Great stuff.

I'm way late to this party but this new(ish) King Gizzard album is great.

I've been enjoying the fuck out of the new album by The Courtneys these days.

This has to be the worst year for music since like the 1940s

I'm quite digging these new Broken Social Scene tracks, same with the Feist album.

[Brett]

Tracks? Is there a new one out?

First Slowdive song in 22 years.

I've found this pretty dull on the few listens I've given it so far.

I've been digging the new Slowdive record so far. Great headphones album while working.

A snc post (in the "songs of..." thread) is always to be taken seriously. So goddamn it, I'm taking this seriously.

"The Beast" I'd not heard of before, so of course hadn't been waiting 9 years for new wee beastie bits, but... Great tune. Solid , as every considered snc tune always seems to be. Here though with something extra and cruising too. Nice stuff.

Joan Shelley also never heard before. To be honest this twee, Joanna Newsom-style crap just ain't my thing.

Endless Boogie are the greatest band to ever live. So of course this tune about Kiss' set at the Kite Gig of '74 is totally bonza.

I do love the new album. Nothing unexpected or shocking, but all so, so good.

OK, onto the Nag tune - that one's 100% not my thing. Ow. My ears hurt a bit. No thanks, Nag.

And finaly, last tune as presented by snc, finishing with Gary Wong "setting fire to my loft"...meh. Not much to say.

The upshoot is that Endless Boogie have released an album this year. Go and buy a copy - they rock.

Edit - gotta stop the drunk posting. Thanks for the recommends snc. Your stuff is always interesting to check out.

That New Year song sounds great, right up my alley, after a quick search I saw it features a former Silkworm member, nice.
I quite dug the Joan Shelley too.
