  • LettuceInAmbers Thx, looking forward to delve into it.
    April 10 11:47 AM
  • LettuceInAmbers Any chance of getting your New Wave playlist from the Build an album 3 round? Would be very interested but I don't know where I would find the tracklist
    April 9 02:30 PM
  • DoofDoof Liked the van houten first two listens, been a bit distracted as heading on holiday tomorrow but hopefully will revisit while out there - listened to the new Ride today and I definitely think I will stick with the van houten ahead of that in th battle of the psychedelia bands, pretty uninspiring
    March 29 01:30 PM
  • SlothcoreSam Half of it is excellent, then the other half is Aussie pub friendly rock.
    March 25 04:00 AM
  • SlothcoreSam Yo Anat, you checked the new West Themberton yet? Saw you liked their previous effort.
    March 25 12:03 AM
  • DoofDoof Thanks, will get on that
    March 24 03:07 PM
  • bighubbabuddha licks your head, now it is shiny
    March 23 11:42 AM
  • DoofDoof reviewed...badly reviewed really...a personal take anyway!
    March 21 10:52 AM
  • DoofDoof Pitchfork are saying he should have gone for a full new sound like the opener and a couple of others but I am of the opposite opinion - that the contemplative second half is near perfect for him
    March 19 03:04 PM
  • DoofDoof the new Devon Welsh is interesting, was going to bury it after the first song but I will be damned if later some of these songs suddenly hit me with the realisation they might be some of the best of the year. Probably a mixed bag but also I feel there might just be the depth for a bit of a cult classic if I can get fully acclimatised

  • bighubbabuddha we are both bald
    March 11 04:42 PM
  • DoofDoof Matt Maltese singing This is the Day by The The?
    March 8 09:24 AM
  • DoofDoof Yes, I had hyped this release day and everything disappointed me to some degree, at least on first impressions! (will revisit everything though, maybe not the Courting) The Ty Segall might even claim my favourite of this week, it had something buried in the hour long run time, which is unexpected. Super intrigued what your new material will sound like, good luck with the final touches.
    January 26 02:53 PM
  • DoofDoof I was thinking the other day that the music I am least inclined to revisit right now is mid 00s indie sort of stuff so bad timing in that regard, I just hardly listen to anything from that era or any Pitchfork-core from those days either at the moment. To me it seems to be playing pop with quite a straight bat whereas before there was experimentation and maybe some mischief and subversion. The debut was at least fun to listen to which ever way you stacked it up.
    January 26 12:59 PM
  • DoofDoof What are Courting doing with the autotune? Some of the instrumental choices are quite promising but the song writing and vocals have fallen off a cliff :/
    January 26 12:47 PM
  • Manatea Lol the review had a reference to Aaron Rodgers and Mars made a comment about it and it turned into an NFL thread ever since. DGD discussion not allowed
    January 21 03:03 PM
  • Manatea Uhhhh the way the niners played tonight? Rams Super Bowl practically confirmed. Also i have to invite you to the premier nfl sput thread https://www.sputnikmusic.com/album.php?reviewid=85271
    January 21 06:51 AM
  • Manatea One more good draft and we?re going to the bowl next year
    January 16 03:45 PM
  • neekafat ok thank you!! promise i will be good next time!
    January 14 09:47 PM
  • neekafat Hi hi I am sorry I was visiting with family but im back, did I miss a round??
    January 14 12:10 AM
  • Feather Your profile pic went real well with that demand
    January 11 10:30 PM
  • Manatea Yeah we?re playing on house money my guy. If we get to divisional drinks are on me
    January 7 07:01 AM
  • Manatea Tbh i would prefer the eagles out of anyone because they are collapsing rn. After that would be the lions just because that matchup would literally be epic. I dont like the idea of a cowboys game in Dallas again?
    January 6 07:25 AM
  • Manatea I just want like 1 50 yd bomb so that he can be done and we can not play him the rest of the game you know? Honestly it?s just been fun to root for the rams this season. Also I would be extremely pleased if stafford goes god mode again for the playoffs
    January 5 07:27 AM
  • Manatea Puka gonna break the record this weekend
    January 4 03:47 PM
  • Koris Not quite my tempo
    November 19 06:07 AM
  • Squiggly Sup anat. Have you heard the new Ex-isles? Do you plan on reviewing it? If not I would like to take a shot at it.

    September 1 02:54 PM
  • zakalwe The latest Jungle is impressive definitely worth a listen
    September 1 02:35 PM
  • Pangea Yes sir! I'm doing it today, doing a final listen and writing the comments. Appreciate the looking out!
    August 23 10:15 AM
  • JohnnyoftheWell HI thank you so much for expressing interest in Sputmix 2023! There is one (one!) bureaucracy barrier for you to overcome - please hit up this form and send your info over asap, so I can get a database going and pin down what this thing is gonna look like. Love! https://forms.gle/zkKtidhnXpgYUsUv5
    July 22 06:37 PM
  • DoofDoof 'I Am a Bird Now' below the new one - very interesting. It is a lot closer a call than I would ever have predicted that is for sure.
    July 20 07:38 PM
  • DoofDoof seems a bit slight compared to the previous one though, I rate it a shade lower
    June 4 12:59 PM
  • DoofDoof yes, think one of the reasons the album is already getting dismissed/overlooked - I already enjoy it a lot, some great lines/deliveries from Baxtah in there.
    June 4 12:58 PM
  • Pheromone lmao
    March 3 10:44 AM
  • Sunnyvale Sounds good, thanks!
    September 6 07:48 PM
  • Sunnyvale Hi Anat! I'm putting the finishing touches on a review for The Lounge Society... Let me know if you were planning on publishing anything for it today/tomorrow and I'm happy to hold off putting it out for a few days, as I did you give you first dib on it. It's still staying on steady rotation for me!
    September 6 06:36 PM
  • Pangea Hi Anat, do you have a song for sotd? the theme is nature https://www.sputnikmusic.com/list.php?listid=200646
    September 6 01:47 PM
  • SlothcoreSam Hey anat, new month new Song of the Day, you wanna give us a rec, the theme is duets. Any genre as long as there are 2 singers. You wanna give us a song for SONG OF THE DAY, the theme is duets, any genre, just need the song to feature 2 different singers. https://www.sputnikmusic.com/list.php?listid=200376
    August 2 12:09 AM
  • zakalwe Definitely mate lovely bit of background music.
    June 12 03:57 PM
  • DoofDoof I prefer it to For Those I Love where I still feel the emphasis was on the poetic nature of the lyrics - the music connects with me and stands out a lot more on the Real Lies. Still like the FTIL album though
    June 9 11:22 AM
  • DoofDoof ello mate, check the new Real Lies, amazing stuff
    June 6 06:39 PM
  • Atari eh you can have first dibs but I might write something later if I find something interesting enough to say. gotta love all the fish tank references, haha. also, Never Any Horses is just heartbreaking..
    May 20 08:28 PM
  • Atari think you'll cover the new Craig Finn?
    May 20 07:35 PM
  • dedex yoooooo anat BY ANY CHANCE do u have a live tune for this month's SOTD thank uuuuuuuuuuu
    May 10 06:38 AM
  • Pheromone can we be friends
    March 29 08:48 AM
  • zakalwe One from last year that I still listen to a lot is Signals by Marconi. Definitely worthy of your time if you haven?t spun it.
    March 14 04:21 PM
  • zakalwe Nice One. It took me a few listens to really hit home but it is honestly a top 20 possibly even top 10 of all time for me. The closer is absolutely ****ing magnificent. Genuinely life affirming and not laid on too thick like a lot of their material. Amazing record.
    March 14 04:00 PM
  • dedex aw bro that's swee
    March 11 02:27 PM
  • dedex grats on reclaiming your title :]

  • JohnnyoftheWell heya anat bby, good question tbh. I think the original average was unacceptably high and people were rating for only the first installment, which rather annoyed me, but I should probably hnn

  • zakalwe New Jungle album is a blinder.
    August 14 06:10 PM
  • Koris Hey, glad to see that someone else here rated the Sayonara Wild Hearts soundtrack! That was one of my favorite games of the last few years... I'm actually kinda kicking myself for not including one of its songs on my SOTD list entry

    February 11 01:32 PM
  • YoYoMancuso i love that comparison! we actually discovered frame and canvas a few weeks ago and were shocked at how similar our sounds were
    February 10 04:41 PM
  • YoYoMancuso random thought but i also released a project a few months back and think you'd like it! https://open.spotify.com/album/36WJOSePq5ktBwaYeAHGfc?si=ANLbZf5PQxCs7Za1hApppw
    February 10 03:42 PM

    February 6 01:30 AM
  • Pheromone I loved it. Truly
    February 4 10:36 PM
  • Pheromone that daniel knox is an already contender for aoty good rec (dare i say..... great rec?)
    January 27 07:08 PM
  • Pheromone he's definitely on the good side of his influences AND, this isn't an artist for google, but Prolapse - Pointless Walks in Dismal Places !
    January 22 05:05 PM
  • Pheromone This daniel knox is a nice mix of nick cave, the veils and a bit of scott walker thrown in there - I really like it so far
    January 22 02:49 PM
  • Pheromone Long Fin Killie - Valentino, as with your rec it's a bit eccentric at the start but grows. Really can't think of anything similar to it.
    January 21 12:32 PM
  • Pheromone also i have a few rec's that i think are up your street, but wont drop em all at once - do you fancy kinda slowcore chill stuff, kinda punky 90s indie stuff or really creative n somehow unknown scottish-indie?
    January 21 12:18 PM
  • Pheromone I meant more so that it took time to find anything from the year to be that into. Saying that, though, Purple Mountains s/t is an all timer and that was 2019
    January 20 10:38 PM
  • Pheromone it'll be my first 2021 listen so if 2020 and 2019 are anything to go by, it'll be a 3 - ill jam it tomorrow and lyk what i think
    January 20 10:13 PM
  • Pheromone yo replacement doof, what was that 2021 album you said to try out? (I could have checked discord but this seems a more poetic form now)
    January 20 09:31 PM
  • Pheromone i listened to your new song - ****in gorgeous man x
    January 12 10:42 AM
  • Pheromone did you end up getting tickets for the arab strap' show? i plan on it but cant fork out the money rn so hoping it doesn't sell out
    December 23 12:10 PM

    October 29 04:33 PM
  • robertsona hmm! At first I thought it exceedingly simple in some way, and I wouldn't say for me it wholly distinguished itself from other alt-r
    October 28 05:18 PM
  • robertsona listening to it now! thanks for the bump
    October 28 04:46 PM
  • robertsona yes yes swear to it. papa's birthday celebration coming up but sunday for sure

    October 15 03:11 PM
  • robertsona I think you might really like Pure Adult?s 2019 EP and new single. They?re doing a livestream on Friday that will be genuinely high quality so you can check that out too on the off chance that you get to it by then heh

    July 5 12:21 PM
  • zakalwe Morning. Enjoyed it the vocals remind me of Stephen Jones from Babybird solo material.
    June 26 08:15 AM
  • zakalwe Nice one for whacking up that new doves song mate. Lovely surprise. I remember a Cherry Ghost record from around 10yrs being quite a thing. I?ll give it a go.

    November 12 09:20 AM
  • DoubleDD banned for another week I think - watch this space. I think it was because I used the 'other F word' to make a pun about Slipknot fans identifying as Maggots. Ill advised. I basically feigned outrage and said labeling their fans F aggots was too strong. I need to work on my sense of humour
    August 12 09:36 AM
  • DoofDoof starting to get into the babybird - see what you mean about the noir vibe, sometimes its almost trip-hop ish
    July 22 06:17 PM
  • Trifolium Nice, thanks man! Checking right now, sounds very good so far.
    July 2 09:07 PM
  • user "your username would have been an apt title for this record" lmao
    May 18 02:01 AM
  • DoofDoof It?s a futile exercise but you just have to do it all the same - just like real voting
    December 11 10:53 PM
  • DoofDoof Are you voting in the user's poll? Award Paddy Hanna 41pts and he might just make the user's AOTY list ;D
    December 11 10:41 PM
  • Papa Universe And Also the Trees - Born Into the Waves
    November 26 03:20 PM
  • Papa Universe appears like something you might find enjoyment in: https://thetoweroflight.bandcamp.com/album/the-tower-of-light-2
    November 25 01:47 PM
  • Papa Universe you might enjoy Father Murphy - Rising and Ivar Bjornsson
    October 12 08:33 PM
  • DoofDoof There are five, maybe six, songs on that album I hold really dear and that's one of them, perhaps the very best of them...and I'm still not ruling out it could end up my AOTY. I actually have had two or three weeks not listening to it for the first time since I first stumbled on it, not that I got tired of it.
    July 31 07:53 PM
  • DoofDoof Classic, trying to think what I usually presume the lyrics are on that song. Glad to hear he was the gracious sort, that album is so joyful I couldn't get my head around the idea he isn't also a top lad
    July 31 03:39 PM
  • luci snooping in on your convo with doof... this matt maltese record is a riot. hilarious and engaging. beating fjm at his own game this year
    June 12 11:12 PM
  • DoofusWainwright Definitely review it, it's something totally different and right now this site has reverted to type so much and only the most obvious stuff is getting much traction. Even Lucid's Rosehall review didn't get as much attention as I was hoping, but I like that stuff off the beaten path gets some exposure. I'll focus in on the lyrics properly on my next listen, sure they'll start seeping in if those examples are anything to go by lol
    June 12 09:29 PM
  • DoofusWainwright having a little listen now...you see I thought I was already listening to the most schmaltzy singer/songwriter discovery of the year in irishman Perry Blake's 2002 release 'California' - this will rival it. Impressive. I think this rec has arrived at the perfect time for me, fits right in with my current listening. We must have an approx 90% overlap in what we've both listen to this year, you just don't like that Beach House ;)
    June 12 09:14 PM
  • DoofusWainwright Matt Maltese, not a name I'll forget, will check. Are you tempted to put up a 'Half Year 2018' list? I will put up one next week, from April on this year has been chocka
    June 12 08:59 PM
  • DoofusWainwright It reminds me a little bit of ?Mangy Love? by Cass McCombs - can see it growing on me
    June 7 10:25 AM
  • DoofusWainwright I?ve been waiting for the Jurado to appear on Spotify but I guess I?ll find a stream elsewhere. I like some of this previous stuff but never had him down as a world beater before. I did notice this album got a better reception than usual though. What stands out about it?
    June 7 05:40 AM
  • DoofusWainwright Almost like a Thom Yorke ballad sung by a fragile wounded version of Kate Bush, you've found another cracker here, guess there might be more hidden gems on the same label then?
    June 6 09:11 PM
  • DoofusWainwright Ah, have a good trip. They're hardly recs, I know they're both favourite artists of yours - both AOTY contenders in my book. I will pick up a copy of the Moffat next month and digest it properly, but I really enjoyed my first listen of it. The TFS is very dense but trust me, it all comes together after a few listens.
    May 15 07:39 AM
  • DoofusWainwright I think the Tropical **** Storm album might be better than 'Feelin Kinda Free', incredible guitar work throughout.
    May 8 07:22 PM
  • DoofusWainwright If you want more Irish vocals try Microdisney ?We hate you South African bastards? - rereleased with the less offensive title ?Love Your Enemies?. It?s a comp of their early stuff, more sparse and experimental than what followed. Cathal Coughlan is one of those singers where I love most everything he does
    May 3 12:20 PM
  • DoofusWainwright ha, that is a really unexpected sound - it warmed up as the track progressed, I liked it, maybe not quite as much as the first track you linked me from the album. What is the release date again? I also tried the The Longcut rec but only the once, will give it another play soon, it was definitely a good first listen. Haven't got too much to rec right now, I like that Paddy Hanna album I reviewed but it is probably too lightweight for your tastes
    April 28 08:58 PM
  • DoofusWainwright Yeah, I gave it about a week off, worked wonders. On holiday right now so listening to a lot less music than usual so it really stood out all the more for that too. Dunno if I?ll 4.5 it but it?s definitely top 10 of the year so far
    April 8 09:03 PM
  • DoofusWainwright Will check soon, tried the Protus Opus today and have to say it continues to impress me, in terms of genre it?s all over the place but despite that it still has easily one of the best track flows of anything I?ve listened to this year
    April 8 08:58 PM
  • DoofusWainwright I am 50/50 about their previous stuff, do you think the new one is this their best release?
    April 1 09:40 PM
  • Papa Universe I know it leaked some time ago, but I honourably wait for the official release.
    April 1 09:26 PM
  • DoofusWainwright On my third try of Protus Opus - yeah, it's a great great rec. It could creep up to a 4.5 for me too, something very addictive in there, nice unified atmosphere considering the minimal ingredients reading the bandcamp description!
    March 28 02:34 PM
  • Papa Universe but you might also enjoy the new Frigs, Buck-Tick, The Soft Moon, Silent EM, Mind Spiders, Actors, , ********, Shopping, Vox Low, Screature, Sex Park, Exek
    March 21 06:59 PM
  • Papa Universe Ought, The Dead Mantra, Kandekt, (kinda) Screaming Females
    March 21 06:54 PM
  • DoofusWainwright First listen and the Acollective has a really perfect palette of sounds but i'm not sure about the variety or song writing quite yet. Some of it even reminded me a bit of Half Moon Run or Foreign Fields. Have you ever tried 'What I Kept in Hiding' by FF? Very lush sounding indie, maybe a little twee/cheesy in places but I think it all adds to the effect - you might like it.
    March 18 01:37 PM
  • DoofusWainwright lol - it's been Elliott Smith/emo'd. Clever how the arrangement is altered - reversed?
    March 16 10:49 AM
  • DoofusWainwright Well it has the intriguing bandname/cover art combo down. Will check it soon, suddenly the flood gates seem to have opened on 2018 releases, loads out
    March 3 09:51 AM
  • DoofusWainwright Good ol' Moffat, that song sounds incredible
    February 21 08:31 AM
  • DoofusWainwright Opinion of the Wild Beasts live album? Only gave it one go so far, not really what I was hoping for on first impression.
    February 20 12:12 PM

  • DoofusWainwright The Hookworms album is up there with the No Age for me, I guess they"re my top 2 so far for 2018, but it's very early days. The Wasuremo might join them - in agreement, I liked the closing run on that album the most when I tried it today.
    February 12 10:08 PM
  • DoofusWainwright ?Boogeyman? is 10/10
    February 12 10:16 AM
  • DoofusWainwright Wasn?t sure you would, nice. I do prefer the first half of the album personally but it?s pretty solid throughout. Only listened to the Wasuremono twice so going to give it another try today, I liked it but I?m not sure how much yet.
    February 12 09:25 AM
  • DoofusWainwright I will give it a go, how?s 2018 treating you? Haven?t got much new to rec so far this year, the No Age has grown on me a bit, might be too ?90s reverential for you, not sure.

  • DoofusWainwright Bumped the Hundred Waters to a 4, also downloaded it to give it more of a proper go. Starting to work it?s magic on me, it definitely sounds more confident than the previous album. Maybe slightly too much of the same good thing vocally in that I almost get maxed out by the singing style by the end, but that doesn?t mean that it isn?t all very good nonetheless.

  • DoofusWainwright I?ll give it another go, I?m not sure why I?m finding it less dinstinctive than the previous one so far. If it?s an anatelier top 5 of 2017 I?ll keep trying, I can?t remember a time I didn?t agree with one of your recs.

  • DoofusWainwright It's...not everyday listening, if you know what the film is about you should be able to start getting an idea. 'Happy' music for demented serial killers with chipmunk-y vocals. I only listened to two songs - might return to it out of curiosity. The rec was amazing though, listened to it three times in a row straight off the bat.

  • DoofusWainwright The Andrew Hung went into his Greasy Strangler soundtrack on Spotify...now that sounds different
    October 19 04:11 PM
  • DoofusWainwright I know, it feels wrong. It was a joke for Zak and Boney - I might review the Rover album sometime soon and then I'll decide whether to go back to Plainview.

  • DoofusWainwright The band UniqueUniverse is rec'ing at the moment, And Also the Trees have more than a little of that current Veils atmosphere about them. Been listening to his favourite of their albums, 2007's 'the Rag and Bone Man'. Give it a try, think you might like it. A bit of Nick Cave in there too.
    September 10 12:42 PM
  • DoofusWainwright I listened to it a second time and 'Really Free' stood out as my favourite. Starting to think there's something infectious about the album though, will give it some more time.
    September 1 08:13 PM
  • DoofusWainwright First listen of the Otway Wild Will Barrett and I'll definitely return to it, seemed a bit hit and miss on first impression but probably just needs time. Vocals very actorly in an almost Bowie fashion, liked them.

  • DoofusWainwright Always up for a pint, hopefully I can make it down. Early married life, trying for a family, so a lot depends on all that. End of September if there are still tickets I'll make a call one way or the other.
    August 26 09:22 PM
  • DoofusWainwright Impressive they can sell out Ally Pally, didn't realise they were that big. Tempted to look into getting tickets for that.
    August 26 08:35 PM
  • DoofusWainwright I've been going over the messages I got while away, just getting back into the swing of it - never heard any John Otway to my knowledge, will investigate. Really chuffed the Everything Everything is so strong, think thereve been a lot of knee jerk dismissals of it but there's something so inviting about it to me :/

  • verdant sure, thanks for the welcome, hope to see you around, etc etc
    July 27 02:05 AM
  • DoofusWainwright Treguard is an alt, rating the artist rather than the individual album. The others are genuine other living breathing sputters. Great album, still thinking of reviewing it?
    July 16 04:40 PM
  • cosmopazz hey wanna give my new pole younger album a try (no probs if you don't) http://poleyounger.bandcamp.com/album/specifically-greek-stoner-bands
    July 15 03:30 PM
  • DoofusWainwright Listened to both albums today. The KU I missed off the other list as I was using RYM to filter what I've listened to this year and it hasn't actually been entered into their database. That's top 15, and I've listened to close to 200 albums so that's going some. 'Hyacinth', 'Turque', 'Spring Elevator' and the closer...some classics on there. Need to get a copy of the previous album. Early days with the Cameramen, it's good, just not sure how good quite yet.
    July 3 09:25 PM
  • DoofusWainwright 'Drunken Serenade' is so good on the Cameramen album
    July 3 10:21 AM
  • DoofusWainwright In agreement that the Algiers vocals make that album borderline unlistenable
    June 30 03:38 PM
  • DoofusWainwright I looked them up on RYM and saw a comment saying the singer has an account there too, definitely impressed after a first listen and I'll road test it this week, give it a few more goes. The Rome album repeats itself a bit, I mean it's impossible to listen to the two most full bodied songs back to back because they're so so similar. Something about the atmosphere, the album has a real sense of time and geography, plus I like the anger betrayed in his voice at points. It's snuck a 5 rating for now
    June 30 03:37 PM
  • DoofusWainwright Loving the rec so far, downloaded it as it was nmp, naturally. A couple of songs I wasn't sold on first spin but stuff like the opener, 'Dreams', 'Onwards/Upwards' and 'Dune' were incredible straight off.
    June 30 03:17 PM
  • DoofusWainwright There's a bit of goth in them thanks to the vocals and some of the instrumentation, can imagine fans of Depeche Mode or The Cure liking the album
    June 30 01:43 PM
  • DoofusWainwright Ah, both posted recs at the same time, will give them a go
    June 30 01:29 PM
  • DoofusWainwright Tentative rec, have you ever heard of 'Flowers from Exile' by Rome? A tiny bit of a Lone Wolf vibe in there
    June 30 01:28 PM
  • DoofusWainwright That new KU album is excellent again, sounds like the exact music I'd want to listen to at a festival when all I wanted to do is kick back a bit and close my eyes in the sun.
    May 27 05:10 PM
  • DoofusWainwright I remember the previous KU rec, will definitely check it soon as
    May 25 05:28 PM
  • wtferrothorn Hey man, I appreciate all the submissions you sent in for the Submit My Singles project. Though one small thing; that Bonobo track, while the album it is off of did come out in 2017, came out back in 2016. I'm def going to include the other tracks you sent in, but by technicality I can't put in that one, sorry.
