| Finishing Out 2020
I actually thought I might be done with new music for 2020 a few weeks ago, but I've since come across a few more albums that interest me. So these are the last few LPs (and an EP) I plan to listen to before finalizing my Best of 2020 lists. | 1 | | Hallas Conundrum
I heard one of their songs rec'd for this month's SOTD list and really liked it. So since they have a 2020 album out that I haven't listened to, I'm going to give it a whirl. Thanks garas! | 2 | | The Snogs Boyfriend's Dead
Sandwich Bubble's review for this one caught my attention, so I'll pick it up this weekend. Thanks Sandwich! | 3 | | PRIZM All Night
JoyfulPlatypus posted a list yesterday of 2020's Most Underrated Albums, and of all the LPs on the list, this is the one that caught my attention. Thanks Joyful! | 4 | | Blackmore's Night Here We Come A-Caroling
I wasn't planning on picking up any new holiday music this year, but then I saw that Blackmore's Night is putting this EP out on December 4. They were supposed to put out a new full-length studio album this year, but I guess the COVID squashed that. So even though it won't figure into my Best of 2020 lists, I'll happily pick this up. | 5 | | Jesu Terminus
Not sure yet if I'll pick this up or not, but it might be worth a shot. Sharenge rec'd a song by this band to the November SOTD list, which I'll be listening to this weekend. If I like that one, I'll take a flyer on their new LP. Thanks Sharenge. | |

11.25.20 | So Happy Thanksgiving, Sputnikers! | JoyfulPlatypus
11.25.20 | Glad I could help! Definitely let me know what you think of it. | zakalwe
11.25.20 | Now forgive me if I’m wrong but I have a strange feeling that 3 is going to be bloody awful. | Divaman
11.25.20 | Really? What makes you think that? I'll let you know one way or the other. | Bedex
11.25.20 | Jesu is cool | zakalwe
11.25.20 | Call it sput intuition. Either way the bird on the left is a corker. | JoyfulPlatypus
11.25.20 | In all fairness, the cover of 3 would make it seem pretty lame. But I still stand by my opinion that it's very solid synth pop. | Divaman
12.04.20 | I see what you mean, zak. I don't hate them, but they're definitely more pop than synth. Their description said something about hearkening back to the '80s, and I get what they mean, but it's not what most people think of when they think '80s. These guys remind me of bands like Expose or Nu Shooz. | Dewinged
12.04.20 | Hallas! Hope you like them Diva! |
