Song of the day:Jan 🎇

It's 2023! And the song of the day theme this month is New Year's Resolutions, involving your listening habits. This can be anything from, wanting to listen to more K-pop, or wanting to check more music from 1953. It could be wanting to listen to less albums more intimately, support more underground bands, see some live shows, or maybe release your own album. The song you pick should be an example of your New Year's Resolution. Spreadsheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1yo9Aj7t1IZwG41xFgX9kzIugIsVckENq5RnQace1WDw/edit#gid=1064224619

New Year's Resolution: To review more albums. I reviewed this crazy album with the help of Johnny last year, and am hoping to do a few more this year.

Hmmm, I suppose I could stand to let more people influence what albums I end up checking. This year was one of my most stubborn "I know what I like" years I suppose, but I guess that'd require someone else picking my rec...um fuck it I'll pick:
3The gathering
How to Measure a Planet?

January 3: Pangea
"Red is A Slow Colour"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pR2ECElNRSk

So for my resolution i would like to continue more consistently with my journey to check discogs of classic bands (see this list: https://www.sputnikmusic.com/list.php?memberid=1052758&listid=194155). This was on a very slow burner in 2022 and i would like to make some progress in 2023

January 4: BitterJalapenoJr
"Bivouac"
https://youtu.be/_AzCgE43OXg

In addition to the usual farcical proclamation of turning over a new leaf on the health side of life, I also want to work on increasing both the frequency and quality of reviews.
5Blanket
Modern Escapism

January 5: Shemson
"Where The Light Takes Us"
https://youtu.be/U-6lyvVPCOs

Things I want to achieve this year:
Write a story properly
Complete a marathon
Record more music and get people to actually listen to my hip hop efforts for the first time
Write a few more reviews on this site
6miguel
Kaleidoscope Dream

January 6: Dedex
"Do You..."
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s-BW2gKnVz8

My musical resolution would be to actually finish my 2010s backlog. I've mostly - if not only - listened to 2010s music in the past 3 years bc I'm dumb, and now I wanna finish that! woo!

"Seeing Silver in Shadow"
https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=1f8fl8MtknM&feature=share

Idk, but I don't want to make any musical resolutions, becasue this year will be a challenge already!
You see, other than sput I write for a metal site too, and I'll work for a youtube channel too (doing podcasts and informative videos). My only wish would be to do all of these equally good and bring the usual dose of obscure and overlooked music to the table.

"Hog"

I want to get back in touch with my roots and listen to more new (to me) g-funk because it's the best.

January 9: Fogza
"Hands"
https://youtu.be/pavaCuhekjc

Hmmmm... I'd like to start messing around with a few covers again, maybe build up a small repertoire and busk once in the summer as like a little bucket list thing. In terms of a goal appropriate for this list, maybe searching for more electronic music that I find palatable... Also wondering if modern classical is something I should spend more time with. Finally, kinda embracing more corny stuff from when I was growing up and not feeling bad about being a bit nostalgic.

This year I will try to check more NEW music, and review them. The rec is from an EP that I'm glad I actully got into an listened to.
11Static Dress
Rouge Carpet Disaster

January 11: JOhnnoftheWell
"Fleahouse"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sOcov5hddFY

Hmmm I think my resolution this year is to waste a little less time compulsively keeping up with S-s-s-sputcore (and to a lesser degree frontpage rymcore) and to make more of an effort to platform stuff here from off-piste (or second-hand from niche user recs), partially having picked up on patterns in my yearlist, and partially because I really don't wanna be that guy who compulsively compares everything to Opeth *cough DEDEX*

"Piss & Quiet"

Oof I don't exactly know. Listen to more music. Just started my Big Four discog run, want to wrap up my NOFX, Beach Boys, Napalm Death ones this year. Hmm. I guess I want to just get back into the groove of listening after not listening to as much music outside of the live setting.

"It's a good life if you don't weaken"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gwNVxvczgCs

I think everyone is going to hate this one (essentially a rock power ballad), but over the last year and a half this has taken on significant meaning for me, to the point that it almost brings me to tears. I'd like to get out of my small world syndrome, i want to be a more empathetic husband. i think i'd like to process a certain level of survivor's guilt that i'm carrying about leaving. i want to go see shows, i want to maybe make some friends, if some sort of secular grace allows that later in life. i'd like to work through the fear i've been living with for years; i'd like to feel what relative peace feels like. sometimes a song just carries a lot of weight, maybe gord downie was just one of the best lyricists ever and it fucking sucks he died early

"The Longest Year"
https://youtu.be/kdGlZAWWghY

I didn't have any resolutions, but our circlejerk in the Disillusion - Ayam thread brought up Katatonia's The Longest Year from Night is the New Day which I have heard far too little. And I shall remedy that, so together with the new one it's a Katatonia winter for me.

i guess another resolution is to review more. I always say this and never do, but perhaps will posting it in this thread force my hand. Uh for this album i have written something like last year may but i never finished because i'm the worst
30Karate

January 30: JohnnyoftheWell
"Sever"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0MmTDptdQdA

Resolution #3 is to review a little less stuff that someone else on Sputnik will inevitably cover anyway and a little more stuff that either a) needs the attention and took time and effort to unearth or b) I care about more deeply and not-so-secretly think is too good for you filthy reprobates

went to the gym this week and LIKED it wow this year is going well
