rabidfish september picks
another exciting month with some great new releases. haven't been checking much outside these, but there's still some gems in there that deserve all attention i can get for 'em. |
| 1 |  | Magnolia Electric Co.
The Magnolia Electric Co.
(americana / slowcore)
yea no, this is a classic. I remember first listening to this in 2016 or around that time, and i didn't quite get it, but i got a positive impression. a few years later and the pass of time and experience brings this to a new dimension for me. |
| 2 |  | Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith / Emile Mosseri
I Could Be Your Dog / I Could Be Your Moon
(2022 ambient / electronic)
a great collab. |
| 3 |  | The Blue Nile
Peace at Last
(sopihisti-pop)
ngl, the happy-preppy "i really love my wife, you guys! praise jesus!" energy gets a bit annoying. But the compositions are so chill and cool and simple atst i give it a pass. |
| 4 |  | Beth Gibbons and Rustin Man
Out Of Season
(folk/dream pop)
uuuh. This is better than portishead? can i say that?
well, it kinda is... |
| 5 |  | Felt (UK)
Crumbling the Antiseptic Beauty
(post-punk)
Scritti-politti-ass, prefab sprout-ass guitars. Reminds me a lot of Dean Blunt's guitar work on his solo stuff. |
| 6 |  | Alex G
God Save The Animals
(2022 indie pop/americana)
what it lacks in hard bangers it makes up in consistency and production. Best Alex G so far. still room to grow, tho |
| 7 |  | Vieux Farka Toure and Khruangbin
Ali
(2022 psychedelic/african rock)
amazing collab, kinda weird how little praise this is getting considering Khruangbin's a farely popular act and this is some of their best material in years. |
| 8 |  | Eberhard Weber
The Colours of Chloe
(ECM jazz)
Not the best i've heard in the genre or by the artist, but the only one i've found in the database. As always with jazz recommendations, i highly sugest checking out live performances, they just flow and vibe in a different (better) way. |
| 9 |  | Godflesh
Us and Them
(goat)
i've been on a redescovery moment of Godflesh's catalogue. I think i might make a rank or at least a tier list in the near future. They just rock the hardest. Us & them is underrated as fuck. |
| 10 |  | billy woods
Church
(2022 hip hop)
another amazing LP by Billy after aethiopes, AOTY contender btw. Another batch of tracks with some of his best material now? cool. |
| 11 |  | King Khan and The Shrines
Idle No More
(rock&roll)
King Khan RULES |
| 12 |  | EIAFUAWN
Birds in the Ground
(lo-fi? ig, iunno)
really cool songwriting, love the vibe of this album. Someone from Duster plays in it, i think. I don't care about Duster, tbh. |
