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.

Ello Sailor wrote: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

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