JamieTwort: JT's Half Decade

JamieTwort 03.07.15	A list of my favourite releases from 2010-2014. List is very loosely ranked and was meant to be 100 but it won't let me edit the list without losing half of it so 90 it is.
Cygnatti 03.07.15	i wasn't ready for this yet : (
Jots 03.07.15	why can't you edit? i thought the new updates resolved that kerfuffle
ShitsofRain 03.07.15	stay trve
JamieTwort 03.07.15	The last time I clicked edit it went back to 50 albums for some reason so I'm scared to do it again.
treeqt. 03.07.15	thought about doing this but with seperate 20-25 entry lists for each year but then didn't
RadicalEd 03.07.15	good list, still need to catch up on a few of those.
Yotimi 03.07.15	Nice. 14 is my 1
treeqt. 03.07.15	my one is not one of those ones thus i shall make my list
Relinquished 03.07.15	s(l)w(i)e(s)e(t)t
EyesWideShut 03.07.15	anybody know a lank to that Aidan Baker albom
JamieTwort 03.07.15	http://brokenspineprods.bandcamp.com/album/hypnotannenbaumdronefuzz-pwyc Assuming that's the one you meant or did you mean Already Drowning?
treeqt. 03.07.15	dank lank
ComeToDaddy 03.08.15	Fantastic list man, especially great to see 6 as high as it is. That album has an inexplicably low average considering its quality. What's 4 like?
Havey 03.08.15	yep
treeqt. 03.08.15	4 has an inexplicably low average imo oh wait some fuccboi just 3.5ed it gues it's not so inexplicable after all 💁
Havey 03.08.15	thanks
treeqt. 03.08.15	heartbreak
treeqt. 03.08.15	feeling a strong nah to a light absolutely not on that one honestly
Havey 03.08.15	it's just simple math
JamieTwort 03.08.15	Cheers guys and thanks for the feature.
RadioSuicide 03.08.15	props for 17s inclusion it's fucking top-tier tallest man idc what anyone says.
JamieTwort 03.08.15	Yeah it's easily my favourite release from him.
Keyblade 03.08.15	absolutely amazing list wanted to do something like this last year but with songs and i completely forgot lol
JamieTwort 03.08.15	Thanks, Key. Damn would have loved to have seen that.
JamieTwort 03.08.15	That's more like it, it let me finish it this time.
Cygnatti 03.08.15	this list makes me feel like i should make my 2014 list after all...
JamieTwort 03.08.15	Do it.
EyesWideShut 03.08.15	the album covers in this list flow nicely together
JamieTwort 03.08.15	lol yeah they kinda do.
Torontonian 03.08.15	awesome list jamie as always. any on here you'd think i'd like?
JamieTwort 03.08.15	Thanks man. You should check out the 2 jazz albums on here, 86 and 99. I think you'd probably like the latter more out of the two. You might also like some of the psych albums on here such as the two Pond albums and White Denim as well as maybe Black Bombaim at the heavier end of the spectrum.
Torontonian 03.09.15	Sweet! won't check today but probalby will tomorrow . Thanks!
YankeeDudel 03.09.15	i'm feelin this
JamieTwort 03.09.15	Sup Yankee
Atari 03.09.15	tallest man on earth and grouper, nice. there's a lot of stuff i haven't heard on this list but i'm sure it all rules
JamieTwort 03.09.15	I'm sure you'd dig plenty of stuff on here. Have you heard 57 yet? I seem to remember you saying how much you loved Woods' newest album.
guitarded_chuck 03.09.15	impala m/ dope list i will listen to some new things now
Atari 03.09.15	yeah i loved woods new album but haven't heard any of their other stuff, will check 57 for sure. need to listen to alien observer again too, didn't realize it was your favorite album of the last 5 years
JamieTwort 03.09.15	Cheers, chuck. @Atari: Alien Observer is definitely one of my all time favourite albums. I kinda wish it was on this site as a separate album like it is on RYM as that's my #1 really, not the A I A comp/double release.
JamieTwort 03.09.15	Dream Loss is good too though, don't get me wrong.
klap 03.09.15	Bend Beyond was v legit, one of my fave records from that year
JamieTwort 03.09.15	Bend Beyond should probably be higher on this list actually, although the ranking kinda goes to shit after the top 20 anyway.
Frippertronics 03.09.15	just switch 4 to 1 and you got a list bud
JamieTwort 03.09.15	Alien Observer though.
Lord(e)Po)))ts 03.10.15	thanks for the mention and great list
Lord(e)Po)))ts 03.10.15	thats the worst album on this list so im not surprised
Keyblade 03.10.15	list gets better every time i see it
JamieTwort 03.10.15	Cheers, Pots. 87 was a questionable inclusion in some ways, it was pretty high on my 2014 list and I loved it at the time but I've hardly listened to it since.
Torontonian 03.11.15	22 is awesome
JamieTwort 03.11.15	Yeah, all 3 of their latest albums are really good. I don't think there's another band around at the moment that does what they do better than them tbh.
JamieTwort 03.11.15	"What's 4 like?" Sorry, I missed this. 4 is Japanese singer/songwriter folk with gorgeous female vocals plus some very nice acoustic guitar playing, yet it's much greater than the sum of those parts.
thunder15 03.12.15	listening to 13 on bandcamp rn, so beautiful. wish I could find it floating around online
JamieTwort 03.12.15	I've got Jimmy's (Venn Rain) email address somewhere, which I could give you. You can email him and he'll probably give you a download for free.
ComeToDaddy 03.12.15	That sounds wonderful, I'll definitely try it out. Despite it's live setting, would you recommend listening to that before the studio works, or is that all you've heard?
Keyblade 03.13.15	"listening to 13 on bandcamp rn, so beautiful. wish I could find it floating around online" you can try slsk, i probably have it up there. or dl it for like 3 bucks which is what i did, it's definitely worth it
JamieTwort 03.13.15	"or dl it for like 3 bucks which is what i did" You can't buy it any more, same goes for most of his discog pre-2014, hence the email suggestion. The old Venn Rain bandcamp page has gone. "Despite it's live setting, would you recommend listening to that before the studio works, or is that all you've heard?" Yeah it's fine as a starting point. I've heard her studio albums and none of them are as good as that live performance (they're still great though).
Chortles 03.13.15	oooo dope list
JamieTwort 03.14.15	Thanks dude.
JamieTwort 03.17.15	Sup Cap
JamieTwort 03.17.15	Oh glad you got that sorted out. Oh sweet, will check. Not too bad, off work sick today though.
JamieTwort 03.17.15	Thanks bro.
YetAnotherBrick 03.20.15	this list is jaw-dropping
JamieTwort 03.20.15	Why thank you.
Frippertronics 03.21.15	not everything needs a description
JamieTwort 03.21.15	Nothing's ever enough is it?
Frippertronics 03.21.15	can't satisfy the insatiable i guess
JamieTwort 03.21.15	Adding albums to your lists is clearly too much for you. I don't have time to write 100 descriptions for a list, maybe you do? yet you choose to make useless lists instead.
Frippertronics 03.22.15	oh shi
Ryus 03.22.15	you tell em jamie, this list is more useful than all of his lists put together : ]
JamieTwort 03.22.15	Cheers, Ryus.
Snowdog808 03.29.15	I'm glad I'm not alone in enjoying 55 among Sputnikers with >1000 comments.
JamieTwort 03.29.15	Heritage will always be among Opeth's better albums for me.
Snowdog808 03.29.15	Where would you rank it in comparison to their other albums? I personally think it would have fit right in with other acts of the 70s.
JamieTwort 03.29.15	It's definitely top 3 or 4 for me, i.e. one of the 4 Opeth albums I still listen to. I find it a very refreshing take on classic prog, certainly a more interesting take on it than most throwback prog release which are generally really uninteresting. Songs like Haxproxess don't even sound that much like 70's prog.
Frippertronics 03.29.15	4 still rules hard, and still gotta write something for it wtf am i doing
Snowdog808 03.29.15	I'm sure you'll do it justice as usual Fripp.
Frippertronics 03.29.15	yeah if could figure out what exactly I'm going to say about it. I binged on it for two weeks after I first heard it, so I definitely gotta get back to it at some point. I may do some 2014 stuff that got ignored (Angel Guts: Red Classroom, 0%, etc) while doing my usual thing.
Snowdog808 03.29.15	@Jamie It is certainly more modern sounding than one of the classic prog albums from the 70s on various points, but I was mostly saying it how it's quality is high enough to stand with many prog releases back in the day. I've (surprisingly) heard only about 4.5 Opeth releases, those being Blackwater and Still Life in addition to their two most recent, and I agree with you that Heritage is better than Pale Communion and up there with their two most loved albums on the site. I've heard about half of Damnation, and I like Heritage better to be honest.
JamieTwort 03.30.15	Neither Blackwater Park or Still Life are amongst those 4 Opeth albums that I still jam. It's actually more like 3 now anyway as Orchid which was once in my top 4 has grown off me a lot. MAYH, Morningrise and Heritage is all the Opeth I need.
Snowdog808 03.30.15	I still have to check those first two out, but I'm sure I'll like them as we are mutual Heritage fans.
JamieTwort 03.30.15	They couldn't be more different from Heritage but yeah I'm sure you'll dig them (talking about MAYH and Morningrise which aren't their first two as that includes Orchid).
JamieTwort 04.30.15	Tweaked this a bit recently.
Frippertronics 05.01.15	yada yada 4 = 1
JamieTwort 05.01.15	Not quite.
Frippertronics 05.01.15	But quite so.
JamieTwort 05.01.15	1 and 2 though... (1 being Alien Observer without the Dream Loss half of the A I A comp.)
Frippertronics 05.02.15	tbh I haven't heard either of them but really should but I know in my heart~ that 4 is the one for me will most likely dig A U R O R A is still shite.
JamieTwort 05.02.15	A U R O R A isn't shite at all but it's no longer on here because I haven't listened to it since like mid 2014. It might get back on here if I listen to it again and dig it as much as I remember.
JamieTwort 06.02.15	Needs more updating.
twlight 07.18.15	100
PappyMason 07.18.15	Really sweet. Surprised there's no Fly Lo though.
JamieTwort 07.18.15	Thanks. Flying Lotus doesn't do that much for me. There's lots of other jazzy instrumental hip-hop stuff I'd rather listen too.
