Apr 20, 2015 Reckless Skyline by Caitlin Canty - Always musically interesting, with every song sounding distinct while still flowing together well. Her voice is a work of art.
Apr 20, 2015 I think too many people focus purely on new music instead of discovering what they've missed over the years, so good on you. Pretty much 95% of the music I get into is actually old, but new to me. A few years ago I got into The Smiths. All of their albums are good.. but The Queen is Dead is a definite classic. Elliott Smith is another favorite of mine. For a few years I only had Either Or and XO, and liked them both a lot. Just recently I've started to get into Figure 8 and From a Basement on the Hill. Some other artists I've been listening to a bunch over the past year or so that I hadn't listened to much before that are The Jayhawks, Matthew Sweet, Ryan Adams, Whiskeytown, Jason Isbell, Old 97's, Wilco, Uncle Tupelo, The Bottle Rockets, Blue Mountain. A lot of alternative country in there, a genre I've fallen in love with in the last year.
Apr 20, 2015 Have you listened to Chamberlain? The Moon My Saddle is one of the best albums I've ever heard, but it's grossly overlooked and mostly forgotten.
Apr 20, 2015 Never heard of them but that song sounds pretty good. Gonna download that album now. Always up for expanding my collection!
Apr 21, 2015 Really familiar with their greatest hits album History, but I've never looked into them beyond that. Can you recommend a certain album or two?
Apr 22, 2015 I actually wanted to ask you for recommendations haha. I've listened to their debut America only, it's very nice. It has this song which I guess makes an appearence in their greatest hits? Amazing song I recently learned that the band was formed in England, but the members are sons of US servicemen. They chose this name to underline that they're actually american, and not random englishmen who tried to make that sound. I think you'll like the album.
Apr 22, 2015 New Tame Impala comes out next week, Radiohead probably around autumn and same with new RHCP. Dats what I'm looking forward to at least.
Apr 22, 2015 Great song, and interesting backstory on the band name. Some other songs I really like by them are Sister Golden Hair, Ventura Highway, and Lonely People .. unfortunately each song comes from a different album so I really wouldn't know which album to start with either lol. Another 2015 album I've listened to a decent amount is Twin Shadow - Eclipse. I loved his 2010 debut Forget and I still play it a ton to this day, but since then he's really changed his sound. The new album is pretty hit or miss for me. I'd say Flatliners, Turn Me Up, and Old Love / New Love are highlights. An album I'm really looking forward is the new Of Monsters and Men album Beneath the Skin. It comes out June 9th. Their debut album was pretty much perfect, and the first single from the new album is very promising.
Apr 23, 2015 I haven't listened to much this year, but random jazz vinyls, some country, and mostly hip-hop.
