Great clip @Matt and killer album.

This band was the closest thing to RATM that I've ever heard in terms of intensity (and big hair).

I managed to see them in Paris when they briefly reformed, which I am thankful for.

I saw Sparta in a tiny London pub this summer with about 60 punters. Sad in some respects of how they don't have more recognition, but they they still have such great songs.

I’ve never seen them but I got to see Mara Volta.

[SKT]

I don’t know what to make of this

[SKT]

Top albums seems right

Tagging @popvulture for the Dutch Interior rec

greatest Christmas song:

[ARNC]

@SKT my listening age was also unexpectedly high (70), maybe skewed by artists #4 + 5? Top albums looks about right (and probably owes something to this place).

[SKT]

@ARNC man tell me about it. I owe so many musical discoveries to the forum. It must only take a few albums to bump that listening age

Here we go.

[popvulture]

@SKT yes!!! And glad to see Neil got some major play. Ditch Trilogy forever.

Sort of a weird year for me for Wrapped because I ditched Spotify for about 6 mos due to their Sith Lord CEO. Tidal annoyed me too much, so I’ve come back until I find another replacement… but anyway here’s my list

Also, RIP Steve! ️

@popvulture that Chicago Sessions was another of your recs that got a lot of spin by me last year. Will check out the Ty Segall record too

No vinyl today:

@anodyne said in Music:

Any Will Oldham/Bonnie Prince Billy fans?

Very much so. I am the only one whose favourite album is Greatest Palace Music. That version of Gulf Shores is one of my all time favourites. I See a Darkness is such a beautiful album. One hell of a songwriter.

[Daysleepers]

There are two clear outliers there. I cannot abide pop music, unless it’s a swooning sad lady.

[SKT]

More wrapped stats. Wilco heavy this year because I went to 2 shows and my son loves these 2 songs. Panda Bear is all @GraemeE

[GraemeE]

@SKT imho the best side project to come out of the animal collective crew

Glad you dig

Ironically I just looked and #3 on my list was something you had suggested to me a while back

[SKT]

@GraemeE man thats a great song…love this list too

@Daysleepers @anodyne 1000%

Lost Blues and Other Songs is my favorite of his so far. "West Palm Beach" and "Horses" on there always gives me epic feels, and "Ohio River Boat Song" is a great opener. I love how unvarnished the whole thing is.

@popvulture were you in Mississippi when he played Jackson (Martin's) and Hattiesburg (Thisty Hippo) in 2004? Those were fun.
