Anyway, yes, the Senyawa album is wonderful.
The singer is so good.
I haven't felt like listening to much heavy music lately, but this is very interesting.

“brønshøj” from 2016 is just as good (better imo) and is more stripped down, has all the super weird and appealing elements and elasticity without being covered in distortion i.e. heavy

i'm not really surprised that people who listen to an eight hour long autechre record have a good deal to say about it

Pitchfork tracks list is out. A bit of a surprise at #1.
― monotony, Monday, 10 December 2018 06:09 (five years ago) link
Can you spoil it, so I don’t have to scroll thru 8 pgs.?
― underqualified backing vocalist (morrisp), Monday, 10 December 2018 06:14 (five years ago) link
it's "love it if we made it" at #1. i'm delighted by that, i'd half suspected it might get there since they surely weren't going to go for "this is america" like everyone else
also fantastic to see "malamente" at #3!
― ufo, Monday, 10 December 2018 06:17 (five years ago) link
i'm finding the pitchfork list quite agreeable this year for the most part, but i've also heard nearly every track on there so there's not the thrill of finding gems i'd missed, unfortunately

weirdest thing about the pitchfork list is that the highest rated track from sweetener was the title track!?!?
― josh az (2011nostalgia), Monday, 10 December 2018 08:19 (five years ago) link
The Pitchfork tracks list always annoys me, even though I like most of what's on it, it always seems so, I don't know, curated just behind the curve. Like of course they'll relegate This Is America to the b-leagues, of course there will be carefully chosen examples of current trends in there, but it's all so fucking polite and tasteful, nothing "problematic", nothing to argue about at all in fact. It seems to be all about what's in, not about what people love.

The Post Malone at #100 seems like a personal insult. Like "almost everything you liked this year is worse than this Post Malone track"
― mfktz (Camaraderie at Arms Length), Monday, 10 December 2018 09:26 (five years ago) link

Joey B x La Même Gang "Stables"
Hahahahahaha wtf is this? Like you can decry excessive homogenisation and playlist culture all you want but then you realise that this year someone tried to make a spaghetti western afro-trap record and everything feels a little bit better.

i thought new patek was seen as boring + disappointing? anyway i think the pitchfork is good, for what it is, but then i dont care about robyn or mitski or serpentwithfeet so ymmv

not that they're related but they seem to be the two straight dance tunes that are appearing on a lot of indie-leaning lists
― my name is leee john, for we are many (NickB), Monday, 10 December 2018 11:45 (five years ago) link
Koze has been indie-friendly for years, but 'Itgehane' is this year's 'Inspector Norse', it's just been everywhere.

Jon Hopkins is the closest I can think of but I don't think there's a like-for-like example.

I don't know why I had this feeling the Alice In Chains record could be good and I'd missed out on some glorious 'return to form', but it totally washed over me (in a bland way). Next one on the pile: that J Mascis record that also completely flew under my radar.

I like Doja Cat, but "Go To Town" is easily the better track, think it might have a good position on these lists if (a) it hadn't been overshadowed by the Mooo! video and (b) that whole "saying 'faggot' is fine" / "Doja Cat cancelled" thing.
Still do not get 'It Makes You Forget (Itgehane)', it doesn't grab me at all, may try again.
