Bon Iver

Radiohead

Yellowcard



Admittedly the last one is a hard personal 5 but objectively like a 3.5

Album Rating: 4.5

Fair play with Radiohead. That's an inevitable 5 a bit further down the line just not quite yet.

Bon Iver, try Lambchop - Flotus

Had to be done boney. This album hasn't been out the stereo in my car since I bought it. Nothing can shift it at the min.

Have you tried any other Truckers albums yet?

I skimmed the big to-do (is that what its called?) and it seemed absolute class but I've invested a lot of time into Lambchop plus I always play the classics (your dig being one) so I'll defo give the others a go once I'm off me mutton binge.

Album Rating: 4.5

As a matter of fact I haven't actually heard The Big To-Do, I still need to complete this discog. I feel ya, always gotta leave time for the classics. Been jamming a lot of Lambchop as well.

They're a funny bunch. Melodies all over the shop, barely a chorus to be had anywhere and yet they are completely enrapturing.

I'm probably a bit of an odd sod in thinking Mr M is me fave at the min but I know that all the others are going to grow. You can just sense it with some bands/albums.

Album Rating: 4.5

I've still only heard Mr. M, Nixon and the new one, with Flotus being my fave so far but I'm going to have to make it through the whole discography eventually. They've got a strange charm.

Agreed that with some you can just sense that they need time to reveal themselves fully.

Even the artwork with Nixon just draws you in doesn't it. Weird.

The lyrics on this thing are some of the most stirring, thoughtful and pointed since Christ knows when.

Truth. Patterson Hood and Mike Cooley are two of the greatest songwriters alive today, and it's amazing that they're in the same band. It was even crazier when they had Jason Isbell in their lineup too.

Just checking Metacritic end of year ratings for the first time and really surprised so far with 13 top 10s this has been totally overlooked

Album Rating: 4.5

Doof these guys are very well known and respected by critics (Christgau adores them), in fact I'm kinda surprised it took this long for them to end up on your radar.

Album Rating: 4.5

I'd heard of them and I watched them play on Jools Holland once - but wasn't that impressed by that, plus their reviews at the time were middling (they'd past their early years peak) so I wrongly assumed they were a bunch of plodders

Album Rating: 4.5

I see, bad Doof!

That's strange though, I thought they had always gotten good reviews, even past their classic trilogy.

Album Rating: 4.5

They just landed on my radar too tbh, and my reasons are not even as good. I never bothered with them because their name and several 30 second song clips suggested to me that they were one of those awful alt-country bands.
