For some inexplicable reason, Jens Lekamn's Night Falls Over Kortedala, one of the best pop albums of the 2000s, will not be available to stream or purchase very soon. Get it now i guess..
Low key, watching the superbowl just makes me depressed nowadays. Seeing a celebrity you admire promote crypto sucks. The entertainment is sanitized and the ads feel so cynical and insidious.
Big Thief solidify their status as a GOAT band with this album. Can't think of any other working group today that could make a 20 song double album and have every track be so good.
Release weekend power rankings:
1. BCNR - This is incredible, i liked FTFT, but this is a huge step for them.
2. AnCo - Wonderful return to form for the boys.
3. Mitski - Not as good as her last couple, but still pretty good!
Still need to give Saba and Cate le Bon a listen!
Black Country, New Road's frontman, guitarist, and songwriter leaving the band effective immediately. Kind of insane timing, I've been really anticipating their new record.
Can't believe the amount of music we're about to start getting, realistically might have my top 5 before the Spring. Whatever forces aligned to make Big Thief and Beach House drop double albums a week apart during the worst month of the year, thanks.
