Lucman's 1500 Ratings Celebration
So I've hit the big 1500. Time for a look back at some of the best records I've discovered since using the site. |
| 1 |  | O'Brother
Garden Window
My most recent discovery. Every track here has at least one moment that leaves my jaw hanging. What a phenomenal debut. |
| 2 |  | Converge
Jane Doe
Thanks to Sput's undying praise I too got to experience this monster of a record. |
| 3 |  | Destroyer
Kaputt
An ode to one of my favourite users. I've found a lot of treasures through our lovable doofus. |
| 4 |  | There Will Be Fireworks
The Dark, Dark Bright
If it weren't for Sput I wouldn't have found the record that I would eventually come to call my all-time favourite. |
| 5 |  | Yellowcard
Southern Air
Another ode to our one and only Sowing Season. The vast majority of my discoveries have been through his superb reviews. |
| 6 |  | Frightened Rabbit
The Midnight Organ Fight
RIP Scott. This record still means so much. |
| 7 |  | Mineral
EndSerenading
I was only vaguely familiar with emo before joining the site but Sput made me fall completely in love with the genre. |
| 8 |  | Laura Stevenson
Wheel
The sweetest thing I have heard to this day. Still have quite the crush on this girl. |
| 9 |  | My Bloody Valentine
Loveless
Here's a funny story. It took me forever to listen to this because I used to think it was a record by Bullet For My Valentine. It wasn't until I bit the bullet and put it on that I realized my idiotic blunder. |
| 10 |  | The Menzingers
On the Impossible Past
If there is one thing I have learnt during my time here it's that you guys know your punk music. |
| 11 |  | The National
Trouble Will Find Me
A Sput icon soon turned into an icon of my own. I think I might even prefer these guys over Radiohead at this point, although of course, I adore both. |
| 12 |  | Rolo Tomassi
Time Will Die And Love Will Bury It
And finally, we have last year's astonishing piece of metal delivered by Rolo Tomassi. It was thanks to Sput's hupe train that I originally hopped on board and I will be forever grateful for it. |
