Some goodies. However, I'm not on board with the opinion of most for this week.
- Ethel Cain - Preacher's Daughter [I had no idea what to expect...and this one had me in its grasp from the first seconds of "Family Tree (Intro)." Comparisons to Lana Del Rey, you say? More like LOWna DUSTERey. How is this going to sound in a small venue in ~3 months?!?!?]
- The Smile - A Light for Attracting Attention
- Action Bronson - Cocodrillo Turbo
- Quelle Chris - DEATHFAME
- Ibeyi - Spell 31 [first time I've listen to this duo; which means that yes, I haven't listened to the relevant N&G AotM, either. Probably should rectify that. As for Spell 31, this was lovely and I might move to in time]
- Kendrick Lamar - Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers [still good, but not a bona fide classic like most in his 2010's run. It does contain the exceptional "Mother I Sober," a candidate for song of the year. Obviously will be returning to reevaluate; could very well move to , very dense]
- Patricia Wolf - See-Through [more environmental/nature sounds on this compared to I'll Look For You in Others. This offering doesn't have me as entranced, but it is very much a worthy follow-up. "Recalibration" should have been longer!]
- Maria Chiara Argirò - Forest City
- The Black Keys - Dropout Boogie
- Florence + the Machine - Dance Fever [sorry, N&G]
- Ibaraki - Rashomon [sorry @musicjunkiegreg, but I'm not connecting with this]
- Moderat - MORE D4TA
- Emma Ruth Rundle - EG2: Dowsing Voice
- Sunflower Bean - Headful of Sugar
- UFOMAMMUT - Fenice
- Jack Harlow - Come Home the Kids Miss You [not as bad as the internet/reviewers would have you believe, but it isn't good either. Cringe bars + production choices aplenty]
None.
