[img] [/img]

Moderat III

(I dun pics 😀 )

[i]album of the year lists always seem, [s]to me anyways[/s] [b]on STW anyways[/b][/i] TO ALWAYS FEATURE OLD STUFF!

Moderat III ... ahhh yes 8)

album of the year lists always seem, [s]to me anyways[/s] on STW anyways TO ALWAYS FEATURE OLD STUFf

....and/or really wilfully obscure stuff that you wonder whether people really do actually, truly, enjoy listening to.

I'm hoping this thread deal with this... 😉

Bon Iver, 22 A Million

Moderat is not obscure.

I've been listening to Andy Stott quite a bit.

Rudimental - We the Generation

Tim Presley's 'The Wink', Oren Ambarchi's 'Hubris' and 'Quixotism', Carl Stone's reissue of 'Electronic Music from the Seventies and Eighties' the track Shing Kee in particular, all fried my brain. Robert Beatty's 'Soundtracks for Takeshi Murata' also featured heavily. My poor wife!

2016 has been and totally astounding year for new 'and new to my ears' music!

New albums (last two years).
Jamie Lidell
James Vincent McMorrow
Clutch
Highly Suspect
Kaleo
The Allergies
Kevin Morby
Conor Oberst

Old Stuff.
Credence Clearwater Revival - Willy and the poor boys
James Brown - in the jungle groove
Screaming Trees - Dust

They seem to be the most frequent over the last couple of months

Nothing on this thread has been obscure so far... 😀

Moderat III is great!

[i] wilfully obscure stuff [/i]

Nothing has been [i]obscure[/i] since Dave Lee Travis left Radio 1.
Ever heard of "The Internet"?

New electronic stuff that I as played loadsa timez

I don't enjoy any of them, but force myself to listen to stuff that isn't on "The Radio".

Devin Townsend Project - Transcendence
Clutch - Psychic Warfare

Oooohhhhkaaaayyyy..... aaaand relax... 🙂

Nice album covers thou' - might check 'em out.. 😉

Second Love by Emmy the Great. Her worst album by miles but still great in places, it took me a bit of effort to get into it though.

Also, it's from 2008 but I never heard it til this year so it still counts, I've had The Airing of Grievances by Titus Andronicus on pretty much constant play. It's the best Crocketts album in ages.

And Megalomatic's mini-album/massive EP Hunt For The Midnight Sasquatch, which is [i]ridiculously[/i] good. Like And So I Watch You From Afar crashing into 3rd album Biffy, sung by Robb Flynn.

Seckou Keita 22 Strings
Julie Fowlis Gach Sgeul
Blowzabella Strange News

[i]Nice album covers thou' - might check 'em out.. [/i]

You should 🙂

First one is Katie Gately - "Color"
Last is James K - "Pet"

Check em dude! 😀

Ahem, excuse me, but [b]jimw's[/b]?! That's obscurity!
"Blowzabella is an English band who play bagpipes, hurdy-gurdy and an array of acoustic ...." oh.

Radiohead's Moon Shaped Pool took me a while to get into, but now really enjoying it.

Slaves (both albums) - Can't wait to see these guys later this month

Sturgill Simpson - A Sailors Guide to Earth - includes a fantastic cover of Nirvana's In Bloom

Rival Sons - Hollow Bones

My most played album by far was Fleetwood Mac's Rumours, ~39 years old but full of classics! 8)

Another Tom waits here, rain dogs followed closely by closing time

I rather like the new madness album despite never liking them previously and the new Kings of leon is very good as my recent released favourites

Of very late, I have been enjoying:
Bad Bad Not Good IV
Common Black America Again
Late Night Tales Sacha Scene Delete

Also liking and listening to frequently in the car :
Moderat III
Moon Shaped Pool
Metronomy Summer 08 for its unashamedly 6music dad-pop appeal

Not impressed by this year's offerings from DJ Shadow and the Avalanches

British Theatre - Mastery
Mutiny on the Bounty - Digital Tropics
Vennart - the Demon Joke
Run the Jewels - RTJ2
Falls - One Hundred Percent Strong
Marriages - Salome
Deftones - Gore

I've checked my most played list. Seems I don't think too much of 2016.

This. 25, Adele by a country mile of music bought in last 18 months 😳 Radiohead I bought and it's awful.

Ry-X - Dawn
Pumarosa - well their 4 released songs

on vinyl...

rolling stones 'sticky fingers' deluxe re-release, specifically side 1 of record 2. quite the best sequence of stones tracks i've ever heard.

Leonard cohen... not long discovered him. most played are old ideas and songs of leonard cohen.

Pixies - Head Carrier

Checking what was released in the last two years that I've ripped:

Meg Baird - Dont weigh down the light
Bonnie Prince Billy - Pond Scum (worth it for Death to Everyone alone)
Chastity Belt - Time to go home.
LoneLady - Hinterland
Bob Dylan - that 65-66 thing (awesome, maaaan)
Velvet Underground - Live at the Matrix (like, even more awesomz!)

Although the most played cd of late is Leaves From off the Tree by Meg Baird, Helena Espvall & Sharron Kraus, folking amazing....

Very likely to be this:

I have listened to this a lot too:

[img] [/img]

Very rarely listen to the radio anymore so don't hear new stuff, tend just to recycle stuff I've not listened to in a while. So recently I've been listen to The Clash London Calling a lot. Also the Sigur Ros album with gobblegook on.

All of the Parquet Courts...

National Treasures - had a few Manics gaps to catch up on
