Diggage From Kenya
Well I've been in Kenya for over a month now and it's been far too
long since I've posted a *cough* "list=digs" list. So, here's a
massive list of what I've been listening to for the past month. Mainly
the first 10 or so. |
1 | | Manchester Orchestra I'm Like a Virgin Losing a Child
This stands for Simple Math, METN, and I'm Like a Virgin Losing a Child.
Fuck me this band is amazing. |
2 | | La Dispute Wildlife
5/5, obviously |
3 | | Godspeed You! Black Emperor Godspeed You! Black Emperor
I'm real happy for you La Dispute, and imma let you finish, but Godspeed
made the best album of ALL TIME, OF ALL TIME. |
4 | | Zeds Dead BBC Radio 1 Mini Mix
Needs more votes. It's only 10 minutes long and my favourite bass-drop in
all the dubstep I've heard (so like all five mixes) is at like 6:30 check it out

machine! |
13 | | Clogs Lullaby For Sue
Bryce Dessner from The National plays some pretty kickass post-rock |

I hated this band at first but they converted me with their fucking AMAZING
live show |
29 | | Frank Turner Love, Ire & Song
Let's begin at the beginning... |
30 | | The Morning Benders Big Echo
default genre on iTunes: "surf-pop" hahaha awesome, not changing it |
31 | | M83 Hurry Up, We're Dreaming
The intro track slays the rest of the album in my opinion |
32 | | The Boxer Rebellion Exits
check out my friend's website, they do acoustic sets in the back of a
campervan it's pree cool
http://www.soundsofthecampervan.co.uk/2011/09/10/the-boxer-rebellion/ |
33 | | Priscilla Ahn A Good Day
Does liking this make me gay? oh well. |
34 | | Portishead Dummy
so pissed I'm missing them live in Vancouver. I hope I get another chance. |
35 | | Frightened Rabbit The Midnight Organ Fight
It takes more than fucking someone to keep yourself warm |
36 | | Gold Panda Companion
3.4 average pfffff come on now. This is almost as good as Lucky Shiner.
kickass artwork too, one of the best of the year in my opinion. |
37 | | The Antlers In the Attic of the Universe
Amazing band |
38 | | Wild Beasts Smother
like Arcade Fire but with a vocalist who does even more drugs than Win Butler |
39 | | Big Boi Sir Lucious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dusty
lookatthewayyoulookatme (daddy fat sax) in my Cadillac, six woofers and
four amps |
40 | | Bon Iver Bon Iver, Bon Iver
Gorgeous album cover |
41 | | Laura Marling A Creature I Don't Know
The master of the 4/5 |
42 | | The Roots How I Got Over
one of the "coolest" hip-hop groups around |
43 | | Kanye West The College Dropout
I just started digesting the rest of his material because MBDTF was my
AOTY for 2010. This album is awesome, I love the skits. |
44 | | A Winged Victory for the Sullen A Winged Victory for the Sullen
Almost as good as Stars of the Lid |
45 | | Les Discrets Septembre Et Ses Dernières Pensées
I dl'd a bunch of that "blackgaze" shit cause this really cool girl recommended a bunch of albums to me and I thought I'd love it but nah, it's
ok. This and that one Alcest album are (weak) 3.5s for me. Nice listen
though. |
46 | | Emeralds Does It Look Like I'm Here?
seriously read the thread for the review for this (it starts getting good with
my comment on page 2). Eno straight loses his shit, hilarious stuff. |
47 | | Souls of Mischief 93 'til Infinity
Wax's song "2010 til Infinity" (which uses the beat from the title track on
this album) introduced me to this group. Really cool hip-hop from the 1990s
featuring Del the Funky Homosapien (among others) |
48 | | Wax Scrublife
a rapper that got signed because of mass youtube hits, but he's actually
good. the track "2010 til Infinity" rules, one of my favourite rap tracks. |
49 | | Boris Heavy Rocks II
yeah apparently I like Boris now |
50 | | Stendeck Scintilla
Dance music for INTELLIGENT PEOPLE ONLY |
51 | | Kendrick Lamar Section 80
slays for days. he's going to be touring with Drake apparently though. eww. |
52 | | Menomena Mines
Go home, I'd like to |
53 | | Jeromes Dream Completed 1997 - 2001
Some of the weirdest vocals I've heard from a screamo band. Still rules
though. |
54 | | More Than Life Love Let Me Go
AND I WONDER, HAVE YOU EVER SCREAMED MY NAME IN THE MIDDLE OF
THE NIGHT? |
55 | | The Radio Dept. Clinging to a Scheme
Pretty pissed I didn't catch their set at Sasquatch 2011. Love the album cover. |
56 | | House Boat The Thorns of Life
the closer "Bug Out" fucking rules |
57 | | Jonsi Go
a yoooooooooaewwwwwwwwww |
58 | | Japandroids Post-Nothing
Oh it's raining in Vancouver, but I don't give a fuck, cause I'm far from home
tonight (so true for me right now) |
59 | | Wye Oak Civilian
I thought this was boring at first but then I saw them (kill it) live and forced
myself to revisit it. Great album. |
60 | | TOKiMONSTA Midnight Menu
Dear Jash: I hate you for not catching her show in Victoria. Sincerely, Aids. |
61 | | Into It. Over It. 52 Weeks
One of the cooler concept albums I've heard in a while. |
62 | | You and I The Curtain Falls
so fucking good. fans of Touche Amore should check this out. |
63 | | James Blake Enough Thunder
First a Feist cover now a Joni Mitchell cover? Go Canada. |
64 | | Trophy Scars Never Born, Never Dead
Still a 5 (oh and fuck fish) |
65 | | Natural Snow Buildings Waves of the Random Sea
"What genre is it?" - some guy "Umm, other?" - me |
66 | | How Do We Jump This High? Funny/Not Funny
Every once in a while when I see Hep Kat post, I check out his dig. I am
rarely disappointed. Pop-punk (obviously) |
67 | | Chuck Ragan Covering Ground
Folk solo project from the frontman of Hot Water Music. Somewhat of a
bluegrass vibe going on too, really awesome stuff. |
68 | | La Dispute Untitled 7"
Don't believe your ears nor trust your mouth. I think that every single
feeble doubt-soaked promise of trust had a mind to leave you out in the
rain with your hands to the train tracks, pulling the ropes with your teeth.
But you're too weak and you're too tired, child, lay down, I will tear every
ghost from your dreams. |
69 | | Mouse On The Keys An Anxious Object
Japan delivers once again. |
70 | | Laura Stevenson and the Cans Sit Resist
Album of the motherfucking year |
