I'm really digging that new Grimes track. Yeah, its sound might be similar to Top 40 hits but Flesh Without Blood is a cut above. The song has tone, some great hard-hitting bass drums, and a slight industrial tinge that makes it very toe-tapping and if more Top 40 Hits had as much personality as Flesh Without Blood I would listen to a lot more pop radio.

More pop music should be like Art Angels (i.e. really good and memorable)

Xiu Xiu's new album FORGET is streaming on Noisey. It's my album of the year so far. Explosive noisey sound. I'm not a big Xiu Xiu fan, I've only heard Air Force and that's it but this album is hitting me hard.

skooma512 posted:So the new Magnetic Fields album, 50 Song Memoir, drops on Friday and NPR has pretty much the whole album up. Just listened to 69 Love Songs a week ago. It's hard to recall songs and not let the music fade into the background especially up past two hours of listening time. I listened to just the first Disc so far and it's all good listening. Something about Magnetic Fields songs just make them standout amongst the rest of indie pop.

skooma512 posted:Oh man, try the albums before that. They're such a treat the first time or the 1000th (last.fm says I'm 7000 plays deep, but that doesn't count driving) . You're not the only one to recommend me the earlier Magnetic Fields albums and I'll check them out after I let 50SM sink into my skin. In other news, I finally gave Mac Demarco a chance. Beforehand he gave me a bad impression, he seemed smelly. But then I put on Salad Days and holy moly that was a good listen. Blue Boy is great and Passing Out Pieces sounds like dark Beach Boys. I love being put off by someone and then falling in love when I give them a chance.

DFA is definitely a one-album band for me. There sound can't carry anything past their debut and everything this release since then has been meh.

I dont like Mac Demarco as a musician but Salad Days might be one of my favourite albums. People tell me that Demarco is "jangle pop" but I have no idea what that means and that genre name is stupid. I put on Salad Days and I have a good time. There's something about that album that's discretely sinister while at the same time being poppy and accessible. It's like listening to great music when you got a fever. This doesn't seem derivative to the music of the 1970's, its fresh.

Agreed. I love poppy Beck like Sexx Laws, Girl, and Nausea but Sea Change is in my top 10. Beck has done well with many different kinds of music, I'm just not enjoying what I've heard from Colors.

One of my biggest fears is that one day I will meet MGMT because they'll beat me up for pronouncing their name "MGMT" instead of "Management".

Really digging this new album Carousel Kites from Paul Steel. It's masterful prog/psychedelic pop with immaculate production. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HDNuEk9dwT8

drat, I relistened to Richard Dawson's Peasant and if that album don't have texture I don't know what's what. Solid from front to back.

I grew up with nu metal and pop music of the late 90's and early 00's so We Appreciate Power is a synthetic nostalgia trip for me. Kind of reminds me of Orgy and their brand of 'death-pop'.

Parquet Courts was one of my tops when it came out but I look at my Top 25 and it's not on that thing. Joy as an Act of Resistance from IDLES on the other hand...

I tend to forget how much I like 7. I had only listened to one Beach House album prior and I didn't care for it. But I dunno, this new one stands out to me. It's definitely going to end up on my top 20 at the end of the year. I don't think the rest of Beach House's discog is worth pursuing though.

The first time I heard SOPHIE's album it blew me away. Second time... it held up okay but a few of the song's grated on me. I third listen might turn me around. Regardless, it's a very unique well put together album. My indie release of this year might be Moonsong's Lethologica because that album is just ace song after ace song. It's excellent from start to fin.

Since the Elon Musk thing I'm getting over Grimes' eccentricities. She's still one of my favourite musicians but I'm definitely not loving this ride any more.

Paper Lion posted:I've been a big fan of Men I Trust for a couple years and they've finally put out this album and it's wall to wall amazing, they're sort of all over the place in terms of inspirations but tend to be easily explained as "dreampop with some sick basslines" please give them a chance!!! I actually just finished listening to this and by the end I was bored. The first half is great but it goes on for too long.

I don't pay attention to every corner of the rock scene but it seems like in the last decade psychedelic rock made a comeback. Indie rock might not be as popular as it was in the 2000s but rock's still kicking.

There was no way this list was going to please people. I just ignored it and enjoyed my own personal favourite albums of the last decade, which I think is a more diverse collection.

Okay, so maybe I've been hard on rock releases this year including indie rock but Birthday from Pom Poko was an incredible release. My appreciation of rock, indie rock, and indie music in general goes up each time I listen to this album.
