| Seeing the Dear Hunter Tonight
Haven't had much of a chance to spin the latest album yet--I've listened to it twice, which is just enough time to realize how much you've forgotten about Acts I-IV. But Casey always puts on a great show, and half the fun is his between-song banter, so I'm definitely excited for this one. List is a mixture of recent digs and albums I'm looking to check out soon. | 1 | | The Dear Hunter Act V: Hymns With The Devil In Confessional
Digging what I remember, definitely need to listen a few more times. | 2 | | From Indian Lakes Everything Feels Better Now
These guys (this guy?) have yet to disappoint. Excited about this one. | 3 | | Opeth Sorceress
Actually just saw them play the day the album came out, and snagged a signed copy there. Like 1, have to give it a few more listens, but what I've heard so far definitely represents a major step up from Pale Communion. Then again, I legitimately forgot all about that album for a year, so that's not a particularly high hurdle to clear... | 4 | | Anciients Voice of the Void
Just heard about this recently. Band fell off my radar for a while, but I remember Heart of Oak being my jam for a solid couple of months. Guess I need to dust that one off again, too. | 5 | | Bon Iver 22, A Million
This has been my go-to going-to-bed album since Saturday--which isn't to say it's boring, but that Justin Vernon's as good as setting trances as he is trends. | 6 | | Dance Gavin Dance Mothership
I think I'm just a sucker for some sweet, sweet, syrupy post-hardcore (or, y'know, pop-funk or whatever), but all three singles for this have gotten steady rotation for the past month, and I'm definitely impressed by the turnaround time since the quite-good Instant Gratification and (seeming) consistency in quality. | 7 | | Warpaint Heads Up
Not exactly what I was expecting from the band, but definitely not a disappointment. Another one I've got to spend some more time with. | 8 | | Meshuggah The Violent Sleep of Reason
Already preordered, just waiting for it to hit my doorstep. Gonna be an intense Friday night. | 9 | | Survive RR7349
Half of this band did the music for Stranger Things, which is a pretty good indication of the synth-tastic sound on display here. | 10 | | John K. Samson Winter Wheat
Honestly never really got into the Weakerthans, but I've liked Samson's solo stuff. Plus, this has a pretty nifty title and artwork. | |
