I want to highlight the Zoe Bayani album. RIYL frame fronted indie rock like Julia Jacklin or Soccer Mommy. She is a smaller artist but I’ve always loved her chord progressions and vocal harmonies. I also highly recommend her previous EP (Worst Nights)!

Midfield

Anberlin
Savings EP
Pangolin

 

Bleachers re-recorded Wild Heart single. It’s…in line with the last album.

 

Slow week. Mostly just Footballhead, Why?, and Anberlin for me. Curious enough about the new Pumpkins to give it a try as well.

 

ooooh thank you for these!!

 

This new Jack White is filthy. I can’t stop listening. AOTY candidate for me.

 

The Strike - American Dream... I won't even listen to anything else this week because it's that effing good.

 

Midfield, a great pop punk band. Nice to see a full release from them.

 

is that a dig? Might be my favorite of his

 

The new Marigold is pretty great

 

Savings
Anberlin
Jack White

 

Footballhead
I Love Your Lifestyle
Jack White
Slumped
Smashing Pumpkins
WHY?

 

Jack White and Smashing Pumpkins for me. Already listened to vinyl rips on YouTube for the new Jack White and yeah, definitely AOTY candidate for me

 

my band poor sport put out a new song 'last call' - FFO Hot Mulligan, The Story So Far, PUP
Would love to hear your thoughts!

Production sounds great!

 

Just finished the new Pumpkins, it's their best since Zeitgeist IMO, however, i'm still not digging it greatly after the first listen. It's like Billy put heavy guitars back in the mix because he thinks he is giving the fans what they want, but the melody and song structure aren't there for me anymore. They need a producer that can bring Billy's voice back in the mix and maybe give direction to the songs. (Not that Billy would allow it) To me, it's like he has the musical equivalent to when an athlete has the yips.

 

Thanks!! We were lucky to get Zach Tuch to mix/master, he did Heart Attack Man's last record - amazing guy to work with!

 

Didn't hear about the Midfield full length anywhere. Your list is always so clutch!
