12.11.20 | Cool list bro. Balls on Donny Benet | Lord(e)Po)))ts
12.11.20 | Have i shamed you for posting ur list before the year is over yet? | Lord(e)Po)))ts
12.11.20 | This would be a good list if it was posted at the end of the month tho | DDDeftoneDDD
12.11.20 | The answer is yes
And dude...I even put his #1 on my digs list...
Too bad you can't handle Mr. Experience.
| anat

12.12.20 | There are always good albums in December | Lord(e)Po)))ts
12.12.20 | Dude vagina white knight robertsona is the sjw of sputnikmusic | anat
12.12.20 | speaking hypothetically potsy what would you peep if we lived in, say, january | Lord(e)Po)))ts
12.12.20 | Well if it was January i would say that my interest was piqued by 1, 8, 13, 51, and 74 for instance
I'd also give you props on 89, 79, 69, 68, and 40 among several other quality picks that might also make my own list when it comes out at an ethical later date | Lord(e)Po)))ts
12.12.20 | But alas | JesperL
12.12.20 | lots of great stuff and lots i feel like i should know, love the love for no joy! | NorthernSkylark
12.12.20 | Sweet list. Totally missed the new paddy Hanna and Asif Avidan release. | anat
12.12.20 | @pots dang well now i'm regretting not waiting, would love to have known what has piqued your interest and what you'd give me props for :/ | anat
12.12.20 | @jesper the ecke wu was your influence if i recall? | anat
12.12.20 | @northern you might find the hanna a bit difficult at first, it's very different to frankly i mutate. didn't quite grow on me as much as i might have wanted it to but still a treat | Lord(e)Po)))ts
12.12.20 | If you had posted this in January and I asked you what your top recs for me would be what would you have said | anat
12.12.20 | i did actually rec 13 to you in your shoutbox so that still stands, esp as it jumped out anyway
on top of that, i'm not sure 1 is gonna be your bag but worth a pop. otherwise 5, 21, 49, 51 | Lord(e)Po)))ts
12.12.20 | Oh that must be why it sounds so familiar | Lord(e)Po)))ts
12.12.20 | 5 was pretty good | zakalwe
12.12.20 | 14 was my grower of the year.
The bleedin hell is 40? Amazing cover. | Lord(e)Po)))ts

12.14.20 | glad to see 33, 38, and 45 | anat
12.14.20 | hey thx for stopping by deedee | dmathias52
12.15.20 | Hadn’t heard of Joshua Burnside, but really enjoying that album. Excited to delve into it more, could really see it growing.
Any other folk-ish stuff like it on here that I should check? | anat
12.15.20 | nice dmat, i'm glad you like it, it caught me off guard too
as far as the other folk entries, 14 is much more traditional but a must, 15 sits somewhere between the two, 24 is a venn diagram with emo (it's the mineral singer), 42 probably also worth a shot | Pangea
12.15.20 | excellent list anat. definitely a bunch of stuff i need to check on here | anat
12.15.20 | we’ve a fairly sizeable taste overlap I’d say pangea so you go nuts | fogza
