This post is dedicated to Hutch, who complains that i never talk about music.
Flaming Lips-American Head. I've never been a big fan but i have a feeling this is going to be my favorite album of theirs.
Old 97's-Twelfth. It didn't grab me at first but it's starting to after two more listens. I still love Rhett's lyrics and Ken's guitar, after all these years.
Bill Callahan- Gold Record. It's about the same as every other Bill Callahan record. Which for me means i like it.
Tricky- Fall to Pieces. It seems like he's had a lot of misses but this one's a hit for me.
Bettye Lavette- Blackbirds. She's 74 but her voice sounds as awesome as ever. Nice selection of covers.
Gillian Welch- Boots #2 The Lost Songs. She's so non-prolific, it's amazing she actually has lost songs. These are as good as anything else she's released...which means very good.
My Morning Jacket-The Waterfall Part 2. I actually like it better than the first album.
Taylor Swift-Folklore. Norman Fucking Rockwell, Jr. Ok, not that good, but better than any other Taylor Swift album, for me.
I also sampled a bunch of albums that didn't really do it for me (hi Lucinda, Pollard, Conor, Bebel, and more) but why go negative?
