The track Blurred View on the new Big Thief is my initial favorite. So much to process on this sucker, but that one was a new direction for them, so it felt surprising, and sounded incredible.

Got an email from Subpop that I can stream entire new Beach House album! Unexpected surprise. If you ordered Once, Twice Melody through Subpop check your email or sign into your Subpop account! Listening to Chapter 4 now.
This January music explosion is insane! Beach House C3 drop, followed by great singles from Hatchie, Girlpool, Nilüfer Yanya, Animal Collective, Big Thief, and Jenny Hval Wednesday. And this morning new one from Melody's Echo Chamber!!!
If you like music with combo of heavy synths and punk tendencies (similar to The Faint) I strongly recommend you check out the EP by the Glaswegian band VLURE that dropped today.
Grandaddy fans, check out this new Jason Lytle track. Seems to only be on bandcamp for now.
The new Destroyer single sounds like The Faint with Dan Bejar on vocals … very curious about the direction of this album based on the single.
There's always an album I discover from the previous year, just after New Year, that I'm surprised I missed since it's right in my wheelhouse. This year it's an electronic/ambient album: Hannah Peel's Fir Wave. Absolutely love it.
Kishi Bashi announces mainly East Coast tour with some Midwest dates. Must see live act in my humble opinion.
The absurdity of new music genre names is only confirmed by Spotify's wrap up telling me I listened to 256 different ones this year.
Grandaddy announced a European tour accompanied by a small orchestra. I pray to all the things and gods that Jason brings this tour to the US.
Some time to relax on this 4-day weekend coincides with my deep thinking for my best songs of 2021 in the competition with some friends (bracket style) for song of the year. So one stress replaced with another; this one seems much more important …
Tuesday around this time is insane for show announcements - within minutes of each other I learn about spring shows in Philly by Perfume Genius, The Antlers and Sampa the Great, wow!
Sudden urge to listen to Catherine Wheel's Adam and Eve. It has gotten better with each play since 1997. Such an underrated album.
So Beach House has decided to keeping pluggin' along and making some of my favorite music of the last two decades. Works for me!
Jenny Hval drops a new track and announces a tour. Amazing music day
leaks are saying we'll get an announcement about a new Beach House album, which will be released Feb 18th. leaks, so can't confirm just yet. very very exciting if this is true.
I finally got my hands on Grouper's AIA : Alien Observer when it was restocked. The pressing is immaculate. Which is crucial for quiet music like this. Very happy.
Loving the new Lala Lala album. There is a beautiful duet with Ben Gibbard on the track Plates for any Death Cab fans out there.
Parannoul fans. They just posted for the first time ever on insta that a new album is dropping on October 22. It includes 4 Parannoul tracks and 6 songs by other artists, not sure if it's a collaboration album or compilation. Very exciting.
Anyone know if/when a new Gang of Youths album is being released? The recent singles have been fantastic, including the most recent "the man himself."
