The Vaccines - Combat Sports I was very pleased with this when it came out. It might be as good as their first album. |

Cut Worms- need to go back to it. I bet Rango would dig it
nothing.nowhere- I'm all in on emo rap at this point
I also listened to Ski Mask the Slump God and threw a couple tracks on my "best of the year" playlist, but I don't know if I'll go back to the album as a whole

Also Tweet several of my favorites for the year are on your list. If the name of the game was 2 opposite albums that I recommend it's for sure Neko Case and JPEGMAFIA. The Neko album is a bit of a departure for her while remaining true to her sound. Last Lion of Albion is probably in my top 10 tracks for the year thus far. A lot of longer tracks, some guests too. JPEGMAFIA has enough interesting/experimental stuff while not completely straying from the genre into total noise territory. A word of warning, if you're driving while you listen to it you might end up driving way fucking faster than you mean to. |

Ovlov: TRU - This is a 90s throwback, very Dinosaur Jr./Built to Spill feel.
Illuminati Hotties: Kiss Yr Frenemies - I know a lot of people really dug this one. It's a good slice of indie noisey pop. Fun record.
Denzel Curry: TA1300 - Soundcloud rap, but kids got skills.
Ganser: Odd Talk - post-punk, very Sonic Youth influenced.
Tanukichan: Sundays - shoegaze/dream pop project. A bit more varied than other new bands in the genre.
Tim Rutili/Craig Ross: 10 Seconds to Collapse - Basically a Califone album, which means its pretty good.
Tropical Fuck Storm: A Laughing Death in Meatspace - Name aside, it's kind of a post-punky in the realm of Iceage but not Preoc.
Sorry to Bother You Soundtrack: I dunno, it's just a fun listen.
Hermit and the Recluse: Orpheus vs. the Sirens - this is the latest project from Ka (the rapper). If you dug any of his other work, you're sure to at least enjoy this moderately.

2017 carryovers:
Gordi (singer-songwriter doing those loop pedal things)
Gang of Youths
2018:
The Beths (terrific power-pop)
Niklas Paschburg (classical/piano/almost electronic-ish)
serpentwithfeet (TVOTR-esque)
Sudan Archives

I'm excited to see Gang of Youths at Grandoozy. Definitely slept on that one in 2017.
I like this thread.

i'll offer up some of my metal findings for the year. i havent done my huge Bandcamp binge yet so im sure im missing some gems in there.
Watain - Trident Wolf Eclipse
really great left turn to experimental brutality after some boring black metal albums. very noisy and loud but still has solid riffs.
Mammoth Grinder - Cosmic Crypt
really fun grind/sludge record. very abrasive but still melodic.
Tribulation - Down Below
fab euro-vampires doing very pretty and clean black metal riffs with rough vocals but not screaming. like if Agalloch were doing Bauhaus.
Portal - Ion
pretty much straight up noise. kinda death metal but it's purposely produced to kinda mute the riffs.
Atlas Moth - Coma Noir
straight heavy riffing throughout. great big hooky choruses.
Old Tower - Stellary Wisdom
like if 8 bit NES music was written for the latest Lars Von Trier film
Black Bible Tyrant - Regret Beyond Death
very very angry blackened sludge with a kinda atmospheric tinge
Insect Ark - Marrow Hymns
instrumental riffing from a female duo
Harakiri for the Sky - Arson
hardcore and crust punk anthemic stuff
Sumac & Keiji Haino – American Dollar Bill – Keep Facing Sideways, You’re Too Hideous to Look at Face On
whack-ass experimental avant garde loud and silly
Panopticon – The Scars of Man on the Once Nameless Wilderness
blackened-folk metal for when you're [] in the woods
Wiegedood - De doden hebben het goed III
Oathbreaker side project. much angrier and louder
The Body – I Have Fought Against It, But I Can’t Any Longer
more ambient and electronic than the last one. some really great additional female vocals
Fotocrime – Principle of Pain
new wave revival stuff from the dude from Coliseum
Zeal & Ardor – Stranger Fruit
crossover between black metal and "soul" music. last album had some electronic bits but this one seems to lack those
Gnaw Their Tongues – Genocidal Majesty
just fucking mindnumbing noise
Orange Goblin – The Wolf Bites Back
good comeback after a pretty uninteresting album a few years ago. fun hooks and catchier choruses
Skeletonwitch – Devouring Radiant Light
definitely more kvelertak-y on this one. Maiden-esque guitar work but with wolvhammer dude on vocals
The Lion’s Daughter – Future Cult
electronic-heavy sludge outfit from stl
Jungle Rot – Jungle Rot
probably the best death metal album in a while

The Beths are fun. That was a good album.
*checks to see if they're playing Denver*
They are not playing Denver.

I have memory of listening to that Zeal and Ardor album but it's not on my spreadsheet which leads me to believe I didn't listen to it
