It's.....not very good

It doesn't hold up as a whole album, but there are some really good tunes on that one. "Streetlights" is definitely in his Top 10 and probably Top 5.

The bad outweighs the good. There are 3-4 good songs

I would agree. Similar to his post SE output for me.

Jeff Rosenstock - NO DREAM



Loving both of these.

There is no way this sucks.

EDIT: This is awesome

I have a copy of that.


i remember going into a record store after already having been in one, so i checked my bag.

as i left, i got my bag and drove back to boston from providence. when i opened it, i realized that they gave me the wrong bag. that was in it, and some Bowie promo interview CD on Ryko, and maybe something else. I still can't remember what the other person got in return

Lately:


Waxahatchee, Saint Cloud


Perfume Genius, Set My Heart on Fire Immediately



and, not going to lie about it,

Emeralds - Just to Feel Anything

what a great record. not really sure if this is anyone's favorite patch of dirt to play in, but if you like electronic/ambient/drone/krautrock stylings, get soiled.

The opening of Jay's streaming show made me want to hear some Badfinger. Haven't pulled this one out in a long time. I have No Dice on the Apple label, but this one is my go-to album for Badfinger.

A socially distanced evening with Eilen Jewell. With full band.

this is a nice quasi sequel to apollo. lack of pedal steel is big but tiny piano melodies with that unmistakeable lanois/eno background wash is a great alternative

one off band from robert fripp/toyah willcox. ive never completely warmed to king crimson but fripps combo of musical and technological talent is uniquely undeniable so this sort of art pop context for him is cool to hear

not right now, but lots of times when im not at a computer lately:

its really hard to think of many better compilations

ive tried a few of lanois's pop oriented solo albums recently and theyre fine but hes clearly not as gifted a singer or songwriter as he is a studio hand. i cant say enough good things about his pedal steel on here though

has to be one of the strangest releases ive heard from an act whose fame is built on straightforward pop songs. maybe a bit too much spoken word to be in steady rotation for me but musically its gorgeous

dedicated to....well, you know to whom it's dedicated
