-first alison krauss & union station album in fourteen years.
-great grandpa is top of the pile for me.
-deafheaven will be getting more spins, too.
-allegedly the new yasiin / alchemist album is supposed to hit, but i'm not holding out hope.
-might scope out the new will smith album for a laugh.
-also will check out palymra, mumford, and jivebomb

 

Listening to Wallows and Lucy Dacus. Both disappointments after first listen. Wallows EP definitely seems like b-sides from their newest album, nothing close to as good as that one. And the Lucy Dacus one is surprisingly boring. Hope it's a grower.

 

Underoath all day

 

Spotify Release Radar really has become useless. Huge release day, and the playlist is a shuffle of stuff that already appeared on it previous Fridays / was released a month ago.

 

They've been doing this for awhile now, I hate it too! Thankfully, all the songs that are older are on the bottom of my playlist but still, why even have them in there!?

 

spotify are the OG sloplords

 

That’s what we’re here for! But seriously, curating your Spotify release radar can be a pain. You need to follow artists, not just listen to them — that will get them and related artists popping into your RR more and more regularly. But yeah, the playlist refreshes each week but stuff from previous lists remains towards the bottom until it ages out.

 

Even worse for me, it adds stuff like e.g. new release from Great Grandpa, but it's the latest single released a moment prior to the album, gives me an impression this is what's new from them and I'm still in the dark with the possibilty to get on with the full album. I mean, this is a problem for me when I start checking out new releases after midnight on a thursday night, I still have many hours then to see what you guys are all putting here
