Posted

Props to listening to Beck's album when nobody else did.

Hot Thoughts and Everybody Knows are gr8. 

Posted

dean & how long :clap3: 

DEAN truly is the king of r&b, glad you listen to him. 

& the way charlie BLEW out his vocals in How Long gave me life, grow them vocal nodules :clap3:

I love some Beck music, but this year releases didn't really works for me :michael:

Posted

Will be here for the next one :flower:

Next update within the next hour or two. This set is pretty fun.

yay Kimbra. Everybody knows is so good and the last song I liked from her was Settle Down

Posted

Kimbra, Spoon, and Big Boi tracks I heard so far :fan:

 

Really like the Kimbra and Spoon tracks, Kill Jill was cute for a bit though

Posted

Beck, Phoenix, Spoon, Real Estate and Destroyer :clap3:

125. Sorority Noise - No Halo (Emo/Indie Rock)

 

Sorority-Noise-Youre-Not-As-As-You-Think-1489510263-640x640.jpg

 

Spoiler

 

 

Slightly emotional with a kicking chorus to boot. 

 

124. The Body & Full Of Hell - Didn't The Night End (Power Electronics/Sludge Metal)

 

447_900.jpg?1498580341

 

Spoiler

 

 

A combination of sludge and powerviolence surprisingly mixes well. I like the neat trap element that's incorporated in this scream fest. This certainly is not for everyone.

 

123. Kesha ft Eagles Of Death Metal - Let Em Talk (Pop)

 

Kesha_-_Rainbow_(Official_Album_Cover).png

 

Spoiler

 

 

When opposites attract. This track has a lot of edge and charm along with that "**** the haters" message. This collaboration surprisingly worked and its high energy appeals to me.

 

122. Converge - A Single Tear (Metalcore)

 

Converge_The Dusk in Us.jpg

 

Spoiler

 

 

This track is about Jacob Bannon's new father lifestyle and how that gave him a new perspective on life. A kick ass opener for The Dusk In Us. 

 

121. Nadia Reid - Richard (Contemporary Folk)

 

5060168041227_500W_500H.jpg

 

Spoiler

 

 

She has a lovely voice and Richard has that Kurt Vile style that I use. 

 

120. Joywave - Content (Indietronica)

 

joywave_content.jpg

 

Spoiler

 

 

The buildups to those explosive moments are entertaining, and albeit on the dramatic side, still a good thing. 

 

119. Mount Kimbie ft Micachu - Marilyn (Garage/Art Pop)

 

lovewhatsurvives.jpg

 

Spoiler

 

 

I appreciate Blue Train but Marilyn fits more into vocal approach that i'm looking for from them. 

 

118. Sabrina Claudio - Belong To You (R&B)

 

Sabrina_Claudio_-_About_Time.png

 

Spoiler

 

 

Her breathy vocals are pretty appealing and sit well with the sensual trap production. and the chorus is silky smooth :heart2: . 

 

117. John Maus - Touchdown (Hypnagogic/Synth Pop)

 

john-maus-screen-memories-video-tour-dates-box-set.jpg

 

Spoiler

 

 

One of the most catchy songs about football.

116. Manchester Orchestra - The Grocery (Indie Rock)

 

ablackmile_manchester.jpg

 

Spoiler

 

 

The intro transition gets right into business and The Grocery combines both the calm & aggressive aspects that Manchester possesses. The subject matter revolves around faith and resistance of suicide. 

 

115. IDK - Black Sheep, White Dove (Hip Hop)

 

iwasverybad.jpg

 

Spoiler

 

 

This track is about his mother's passing and reflection on their not completely functional relationship beforehand. Black Sheep represents IDK, White Dove represents his mother. This could be hard-hitting/emotional for some. 

 

114. Baths - Adam Copies (Glitch Pop)

 

baths-romaplasm.jpg

 

Spoiler

 

 

Noisy pop done right. 

 

113. Xiu Xiu - Forget (Art Pop)

 

Xiu_Xiu_-_Forget.jpg

 

Spoiler

 

 

The beginning is kind of minimalist but when the chorus comes in and those blasting synths occur then it's a whole new ball game. The way Jamie yells out forget add an uneasy yet engaging feeling. 

 

112. Mac Demarco - Moonlight On The River (Indie/Folk pop)

 

mac-demarco-this-old-dog_jpg_250x.png

 

Spoiler

 

 

Mac's longest song  turned out to be my favorite, The way the song 2/3rd in changes into this wall of sound added a cool and "experimental" touch that makes it standout.  

 

111. Milo - Magician (Suture) (Abstract Hip Hop)

 

who told you to think_milo.jpg

 

Spoiler

 

 

Barely over 2 minutes, but Milo pulls off some adept tricks with the beat and wordplay.

Let Em Talk, grower and a bop :clap3: 

Marilyn sounds nice

 

Sabrina is nice, credits to @Mark Rih for introducing me to ha

Wow @ both of us having Xiu Xiu in our updates today :clap3: Forget is probably my fave on the album :heart2:

A Single Tear is a banger and I also loved Adam Copies and Content :clap3:


Should prob check out Mount Kimbre's and Sabrina's albums cause I see them get mentioned a lot.

Posted

Another "No Halo" mention! Manchester Orchestra's best song (or one of their top five)! CONVERGE!...even if it's not one of my absolute favorites from that album, but it still rules!

 

Tommy knows how to bring the goods. :beatfreak:

If u want to get into Mac then start with 2 or Salad Days first. They're more representative of his style.
