Red Mosquito

As seems to be tradition, I'll get the ball rollin'.

Here's my Best of 2022 mix which is a bit light on for new artists for me - I haven't had much time for discovery this year, other than the odd perusal of the Albums of 2022 thread (thanks Varis for a couple of gems I may have otherwise missed ). For the non-Aussies, below is some context for the slogan on the front cover and my beloved Cats' Mad Monday AFL Premiership celebrations depicted on the back

Still a guilty pleasure of mine. This track is probably their best rocker since the Black Holes era

Not a prob with the recommends Riddles, always fun checking out new tuneage.

I look forward to checking the mix, even if I am almost physically repulsed by the artwork.

I'll post my contribution sometime in January I'm guessing

I’m waiting to hear new music released in December!

You can’t release music in December because you neither make our self important best of lists for this year nor will we consider you for next year. I’ll post a list soon

I'm not prepared to put this into a playlist

Lorde - Mata Kohore
Leon Bridges with Khruangbin - Mariella
Bastards of Light - R.H.C.P.
Sad White Reggie - Placebo
Metric - False Dichotomy
Jack White - Into The Twilight
Eddie Vedder - Good and Evil
Rammstein - Angst
Mavis Staples & Levon Helm - This is my Country
The Black Keys- Baby I'm Coming Home
Gorillaz - New Gold

Rammstein have been releasing the same song for ~20 years now. Fair play to them. It's a good song.

The Gizz doesn't move the sleepy jizz.

Unreal
