Did you not like the Vagabon album much? I thought that would be on here for sure.

 

i haven't gone back to it in so long. i love the embers but i barely remember anything else from it. i always say that my lists are just current snapshots, and it's so hard especially in a year like this to include everything i think is good so i inevitably miss listing things i think are good albums. and i don't have time to relisten to every single thing i enjoyed this year, so i focused on the records with more replayability for me to see where they fit in. unfortunately that vagabon record was left out even though i really love the embers.

 

my just missed records were

adult mom
alex napping
allison crutchfield
bethlehem steel
cool american
the front bottoms
iron chic
spencer radcliffe

 

Another Ratboys mention, another like

 

still sad i missed half their set eariler this year, ugh. my friend was running late and they went on early. love that band to death

 

In fairness, I missed every Chicago show they played this year. This includes when they opened for Pet Symmetry and got to the venue only to find it sold out.

 

Yea I find it ridiculous I haven't seen them in like 2 years considering how frequently they play. I'm so excited to see them at Schuba's next month

 

Thank you for this post because now I can try to make amends lol.

 

Haha no problem, hopefully I'll see you there! It's with Snail Mail, Stef Chura, and Lomelda, so it's a pretty stacked lineup

 

They must not have been added to the TNF lineup when I saw it advertised before.

 

that lineup is so stupid good, god damn

don't miss any act

 

Snail Mail best band in the world

 

going to be so weird seeing them get enormous this year
