Mid-Year 2020 Lists (Best of 2020 Thus Far) • Page 5

That Kenny Mason album is good? I dug “Metal Wings” as a single but never got the the album

 

I’m enjoying it. That’s the only one that made me check the title but it’s all enjoyable

 

Rolling Blackouts is definitely beach music

 

Swimmer by Tennis is big time beach music for me

 

Halsey, Mt. Joy, Tame Impala, Dua Lipa, Coin, The 1975, Bieber, Hayley Williams among the records I've listened to the most. Mt. Joy may be my favorite of the year so far. Phoebe's will be on the list. Only listened once so far. Ocean Alley comes out tomorrow. Highly anticipating that one.

EDIT: The Weeknd is high on the list

 

Phoebe’s keeps growing on me. Not that I disliked it at first, but more and more sticks out to me

 

Kenny Mason reminds me of a more focused Brockhampton, like just Kevin with a rock tilt. I fuck with it.

 

That’s a great description

 

I guess I had to update because Punisher dropped. Top 16 is pretty set in stone the rest is a rough order.

 

Dylan, Tenille Townes, HAIM, Killers, Courtney Marie Andrews, Alex the Astronaut, Lori McKenna, Ruston Kelly, Blitzen Trapper, Colter Wall, David Ramirez. Of ones that are just hopeful, not announced: Dawes, Bleachers, The Night Game, Counting Crows.

 

Your taste is perfect lol. Normally I'd rec someone with taste like yours with an album that you're missing but you've got all the obvious ones covered lol. I guess I'll rec the Cheerbleederz EP since Phoebe from Happy Accidents is also in that band but I'm guessing you already know that lol

 

I know this was from yesterday but The Bombpops would be a great beach listen

 

love seeing Dominic Fike on there

 

hoping for a release! we'll seeeee

 

I am sad we didn’t get him doing the full version of peach by himself like he did for camp flog gnaw

 

show me a video, i didnt know this exists!

 

15:49

I was there and he was pretty meh

 

Dogleg - Melee
Code Orange - Underneath
Waxahatchee- Saint Cloud
Run the Jewels - RTJ4

That it’s but I haven’t heard a lot of stuff. These are all great tho

My favorite EP is probably Pummel - Our Power. Once shows can happen again I need to see them. Gonna be fun.

 

fair enough, I won't fault him too much for his live show yet as a new artist. I'm mostly at the point where I hear SO much potential that I'm holding onto hope that he puts out something truly great

 

hes going to make fantastic music I stan him

 

@irthesteve do you agree that the Dominic Fike interlude on the Halsey album is a song of the year candidate yes

 

I..... no, sorry. I don't really like that album much

 

I am mostly kidding but I really like Dominic going for that summer beach vibes on that one song

it fits his style

 

It's a good song

 

I actually didn't know that, I'll definitely give it a spin. Thanks for the compliment!
