Last two weeks. Saving tomorrow's drops for Q2 consideration.
Close to rounding out Q1 favorites chart...

🔥
  • 100 gecs - 10000 gecs [another helping of bite-sized tunes to thrash violently around to]
  • deathcrash - Less [yeah...thanks a bunch P4K. Very intriguing slowcore]
👍
  • The Daily Bread - Invisible Cinema [thanks, @NateOEB]
  • Downfall of Gaia - Silhouettes of Disgust
  • H. Hawkline - Milk for Flowers
  • Lonnie Holley - Oh Me Oh My [hmm...this has the sound of an album released by a legendary artist within 365 days of their future passing. Knock on wood, I know...]
  • Lia Kohl - The Ceiling Reposes
  • Kruelty - Untopia [thanks, @musicjunkiegreg]
  • mui zyu - Rotten Bun for an Eggless Century
  • Sleaford Mods - UK Grim [certainly different, but I don't mind it at all. Far better than Spare Ribs from two years ago]
  • Yves Tumor - Praise a Lord Who Chews but Which Does Not Consume; (Or Simply, Hot Between Worlds) [stuck between here and the highest tier. Leaving here for now]
🤷‍♂️
  • Fever Ray - Radical Romantics [why do you like this so much, P4K?!?!? I almost thought about moving this down]
  • Shalom - Sublimation
  • Tei Shi - Bad Premonition (EP) [some OK songs, some dull. It's too safe overall. I still want to see her live tho]
  • Theophonos - Nightmare Visions
  • Joe Westerlund - Elegies for the Drift
👎
  • William Basinski - The Clocktower at the Beach (1979) (archival) [pretty amazing how Basinski still manages to create ambient music that doesn't spark joy for me at all]
  • Bub Styles - Outerwear SZN 3
  • Miley Cyrus - Endless Summer Vacation [bland, but not enough to be outright repulsive]
🤮

None.​
