The album is out, barges mercilessly past everything to the top of my list for 2025. Beautiful stuff

New Mynabirds today, so that's getting most of my attention. But Rosalia is up next. Really excited for it.

Did not like the Rosalia single so I suspect the album won't be for me. I love her voice but her music is always a little too somber and downbeat for my liking, and this classical-infused direction she's taking could not be less appealing to me.

I love that she has such huge breadth stylistically, that she can produce something like "Despechá" which is a straight-up dancefloor merengue and then these lushly orchestrated lieder-operettas like "Berghain", and they're both equally emotional

Rosalia’s Lux is clearly a great album that has different emotional layers and exquisite vocals but im not sure it has a lot of staying power to me. Once the hype is gone, and boy this one is being hyped, im not sure it will be played more at home than Motomami
I will probably got the vinyl tough and cant wait to see her again live

Hard to know for sure. We'll see. I love Motomami a lot but to me the real point of comparison will be El Mal Querer

Big fan of the new Silversun tune. Kinda sounds Neck of the Woods-esque. I'm all in.

I just heard one of their songs for the first time and I’m baffled by seeing them described as hardcore/post-hardcore/etc. They sound like Flock of Seagulls with a lil bit of chugga chugga heavy guitars underneath.

They used to be a lot more hardcore-leaning.
