agree with @Woob_woob ...I have a very deep list of "ya, I like that" albums...like pretty much everything on my list has shuffled between top-tier to lower reaches to off my list entirely and back...nothing really "exceptional" (with perhaps the exception of my #3...which might really go down...

I drive a ton for work...like, 25,000 miles a year just for work, plus whatever little personal trips and excursions I venture out on. and it's frequently on when I sleep. but still...I get my $12/months worth, for sure

"more than 100% of other listeners" so...I won Spotify? *edit*...I just did the math...there are 525,600 minutes in a year...so I spent about 44% of the year listening via Spotify

definitely a bit skewed by sleepy-time music and running music...but I'd say this still pretty well checks out

ya...as I listen a bit deeper, I feel like they're cut from the Arab Strap mold...you're giving me compellingly dark music but vocally I'm just not locked in like I am for similarly styled bands like Shame and Protomartyr

Me - I feel pretty good about my list Rough Trade - Dry Cleaning is #1 album of 2021 Me - missed that one...let's listen Dry Cleaning - ***opening base-line*** Me - fuuuuuuuuuck

actually...giving a more thorough listen today...Dave gonna end up a lot higher. a lot higher. damn.

ok...heading into the home-stretch...this is kinda where I'm at, though certain to be some movement as we wind down toward the season of @Woob_woob Lists: 1. shame - Drunk Tank Pink 2. Goat Girl - On All Fours 3. Atmosphere - WORD? 4. Black Country, New Road - For the First Time 5. F.S...

absolutely in love with this new F.S. Blumm & Nils Frahm LP..

just got back from Elements...incredible music... everything else was approaching Fyre Fest-level failure

ok. here we go. let's take drugs with strangers again...

big Jungle fan...was ready to fly cross-country to see them live (and still would had life not butted in)...but yo...the track Truth sucked a lot of wind out of my sail. it sounds like off-brand, late-era Black Keys...like spot on, could've been on Brothers as is. still optimistic, but fearful...

well overdue getting a pseudo-ranking together...this will undoubtedly change drastically by December, but it also helps me to try to organize new tunes I've been digging 1. shame - Drunk Tank Pink 2. Bowerbirds - becalmyounglovers 3. Black Country, New Road - For the First Time 4. Floating...

I'm late to the Modest Mouse discussion...but I didn't see "Wooden Soldiers" mentioned in this discussion...and I think that's a damn banger...maybe because it feels like an elevated-production version of a cut that'd fit on Ugly Casanova Sharpen Your Teeth beyond that...it's a solid...

10. Amason - G! Fest (Faroe Islands), 2015 - set and setting, for sure, but I was mesmerized listening to them and thrilled to see them kinda make a splash stateside later that year 9. Brown Bird - Dirt Floor Recording (Chester, CT), 2013 - played to a room of 30 a few weeks before Dave's cancer...

quoting this because I take issue with QOTSA being lumped in, but I digress... 'rock" is such a broad category...maybe not so much bc "rock" itself has changed, but more bc we've parsed out genres upon genres to better separate style and mood. Protomartyr has been my favorite kinda "dark"...
