I have sadly been totally preoccupied with work and personal issues so I am way behind on this year's releases. Knowing my crappy taste, any recommendations on under-the-radar stuff I probably missed but should give a listen?

I'll stan for that Black Belt Eagle Scout record. Had never listened to them before and ended up enjoying it. Also the Alex G record is solid, tho I prefer Rocket.

Black Midi and Niufer Yanya were on my list of "heard this once, didn't hate it". I'll give 'em second chances
Edit: Purple Pilgrims are a Flying Nun band, adding them to the list too

Post by sthubbins on Dec 3, 2019 9:50:48 GMT -6
people already like Angel and this album sounds big/grand so it feels like you should consider it to be great. It's good but possibly her worst full length
