I only listened to Solange once in the background and was kind of turned off. That’s probably unfair and I should check it out properly.

 

Been a slowish music year for me. But here's what I got so far:

The Twilight Sad - It Won/t Be Like This All the Time
Mono - Nowhere Not Here
Bad Religion - Age of Unreason
American Football - American Football
Full of Hell - Weeping Choir
The Callous Daoboys - Die on Mars

 

I forgot about American Football. Haven't even listened to it yet. I'm sure I'll love it once I get to it.

 

Mine's something like:

Mike Mains & The Branches - When We Were In Love
Nina Nesbitt - The Sun Will Come Up, The Seasons Will Change
The Maine - You Are OK
Better Oblivion Community Center - Better Oblivion Community Center
Carly Rae Jepsen - Dedicated
The Japanese House - Good At Falling
Anna Tivel - The Question

Second half of the year is going to have some heavy hitters for me whether they're already announced or expected to be soon. Nothing outside of my top 4 is safe.

 

@Jason Tate Is there going to be an official list from chorus?

 

Yep. Blurbs being written but everyone right now. Probably be up tomorrow if we get it all in.

 

Posting to remember to make a list later
