I know I will probably get flamed for this post but the new Kings of Leon is really good. Definitely their best in a long time.
Why did I chose U.N.K.L.E.'s "PSYENCE FICTION" album for the N&G AoTM? And what are some original sample sources? Read all about it here:
Today (May 13th) is the 10 year anniversary of Swans' To Be Kind album - my favourite album of 2014 and my favourite album of the 2010s.

Someday when I decide to actually put together my favourite albums of all time list, I'm sure To Be Kind will easily be a Top25, and maybe even a Top10 for me.

i've actually never listened to a swans album in full before (mostly because the ones I would like are way too long and I couldn't get into the no wave stuff).. maybe I should finally listen to his one

It's 121 minutes, 10 tracks. It's repetitive, tribal, raw, and pummeling. But, for me, most of all, it's cathartic. You've gotta listen to it in a certain atmosphere. You've gotta almost separate or seclude yourself. It's surely not for everyone. I had no idea it would be for me the first time I heard it. But you may find It's just what you needed 😉 Lemme know if you decide to give it a go 🎧
As I get older, the notion of sunk cost becomes more of an acceptable rationalization for parting with things even if you don't get a lot for them. But I got a decent amount at Half Price Books yesterday for old VMP and other vinyl I no longer listen to. And before you ask, I don't have enough boxes to PIF things otherwise I would have.
