Where I make note of the new music I've listened to.
I've been looking forward to this album ever since The Smile's surprise debut during online Glastonbury last year and it doesn't disappoint. The band consists of half of Radiohead + Tom Skinner of Sons of Kemet (who I should check out after this). A lot of the songs feel like "what if Radiohead made jazz".
This is the new release from MBR and based on my first listen I'm pretty sure it's my favorite. In terms of song writing, the album seems to incorporate some aspects that I really like from Keygen Church, another project by the same guy behind MBR.
Decent album. Some pretty good songs that I'll probably come back to but also some filler that I didn't really care for.
Pretty nice dream pop, felt a bit shoegaze-adjacent at times. The melodies are really hooky and I like all the riffs that are spread throughout. γγ³γ°γ°γγγγ€ is probably my favorite of the two.
Another good Grivo album. Pretty similar sound to the last one I listened to.
Groovy, hypnotic, dark. Going to keep coming back to this one.
Dark and heavy shoegaze. I like these guys.
I liked the album though I'm a bit disappointed that like half of it was released beforehand as singles. It's nice that A Blaze of Feather keep evolving their sound.
Good and energetic. I may come back and check out more but lately I've been going through artists related to Holy Fawn first.
Kinda like a slightly more depressing Grouper.
Just some good, dark metal. I think I want to check out more from these guys.
Plenty of fun songs with an apocalyptic vibe.
I've died and gone to heaven except it's not heaven it's a clown-infested fever dream hellscape. I don't know what I did wrong to deserve this Spotify recommendation.
Another interesting dark metal/shoegaze/post rock blend, though I liked this one more than Infinite Granite which was similar. There's a lot more variety here which I think results in a stronger album. Planning on listening to more from these guys.
Grungier than I was expecting going in, but I find something oddly nostalgic in that. I had always assumed that A Perfect Circle's version of The Nurse Who Loved Me was the original so it was a nice surprise to discover the actual original on this album!
Pleasantly chill as anyone would have come to expect from alt-J. This album's certainly stronger than their previous so I'm happy for that.
These guys are mixing it up a bit and have included a lot of orchestration in this album. It doesn't rock out quite as often as I would like, but it's definitely a nice listen regardless.
Definitely heavier than Infinite Granite which I still like more. This wasn't bad but just wasn't really my thing.
Really enjoyed this one. Completely hooked by the second track. Definitely going to keep listening to this album and this'll probably be one of the artists I do a deep dive into. I think I'll listen to Fantastic Planet next then go from there.
Dreamy throughout and at times pretty heavy. Enjoyable album, I'll probably come back to it again. I've been looking for heavier stuff to get into so I may check out some of the band's other material as well.
Discovered through Beat Saber modding. Both albums are fun listens and give a bit of variety but I think I like A Place Where Mountains Hide just a little more.
A seriously unique blend of Master Boot Record style computer-generated metal and baroque/organ music. And yes, that really is the name of the album.
Heard about these guys through word of mouth and I'll definitely be listening to more of them.
Very fun listen. Electrojazz isn't too bad.
I haven't been great at keeping this up to date. But here's some new albums I've listened to over the past several weeks.
I was looking forward to this one and wasn't let down. Low continues to find creative ways to use distortion effects, but also manages to make each song more memorable than most of their songs from the last album Double Negative.
It's been a while since I've listened to an album from these guys but I was pleasantly surprised. It's a new sound from them and I like it.
Good chill fingerplucked guitar.
Kind of typical indie rock. Not that that's a bad thing.
