2024 Album-A-Day: Week 24

Category: Music

UPDATE: I have since listened to the Smile Sessions. I can't decide which I like more, but they're both great. I didn't count it as part of my list because it's essentially the same album. This will come up again later. As always, recommend albums you want me to hear, and » Continue Reading

Aaaaalbuuuuums. Click here for plaaaayyylliiiist. Recommend more aaaaaallllbuuuums. June 3rd: Absolute Torch and Twang by k.d. lang and the Reclines This was my first experience with Canadian lesbian country crooner k.d. lang (all lowercase, because she likes e.e. cummings), and I had a good time. I used to think I just wasn't a country person, but I » Continue Reading

Feel free to recommend albums, and click here for the playlist. May 27th: The Big Roar by The Joy Formidable The first time I heard "Whirring" by the Joy Formidable, I knew I needed to know more about this band. This Welsh alt-rock trio's debut album (holy shit I'm starting to sound like Fantano) is full of » Continue Reading

2024 Album-A-Day: Week 20

Category: Music

Feel free to recommend more albums, and click here for the playlist. May 13th: Histoire de Melody Nelson by Serge Gainsbourg This was my first excursion into french pop in the 70s, and this album definitely caught my attention. I like the crunchy baritone guitar sounds and the tight grooves and the orchestral flourishes, most evident on "Melody" and "En Melody" (the song titles ar » Continue Reading

Continuing to link to the playlist even if I don't think anyone's read a word of these. But this is more for me than it is for anyone else. May 6th: Happiness... is Not a Fish That You Can Catch by Our Lady Peace This is a band I've been meaning to learn more about for a while, as this particular album was on Crash Thompson's wall of favorites for a lo » Continue Reading

1/3rd of the way through this project. As always feel free to recommend albums, and check out the playlist. April 22nd: Souvlaki by Slowdive This is another one I've been meaning to get around to. Apparently, there's debates over whether this album is better that Loveless » Continue Reading

Feel free to suggest other albums. I don't think my current list will last me to the end of the year. Also the playlist link. April 8th: Rated R by Queens of the Stone Age I've listened to Songs for the Deaf before, so it was natural that I would love this. It's brutal, punchy, but has a sense of h » Continue Reading

Playlist April 1st: Sad Songs for Dirty Lovers by The National I've listened to a few National albums before, but I wanted to look at their earlier work. This is a good example of how, after their first album was vaguely country-ish (I've heard some of it), the National had a very clear idea of what they wanted to be: dark, dramatic, sometimes sarcastic » Continue Reading

Link to playlist here. Like you give a shit. March 25th: The Return Of The Space Cowboy by Jamiroquai Funky basslines. High-pitched vocals. Groovy keyboard licks. Jamiroquai's funky-jazzy style is something I don't listen to nearly enough. "Just Another Story" makes it clear from the beginning that this is going to be an epic journey of rhythm, and tha » Continue Reading
