lmao

apropos

"Soap & Skin - Lovetune For Vacuum"

This is a wonderful record.

somedude otm about OOIOO

i'm gonna do a top 100 on BSCReview.com for 2009 but I think everyone needs to hear Ike Reilly's "Hard Luck Stories," it's download-only but damn, I love that guy. great due with shooter jennings called "the war on the terror and the drugs".

No love for David Bazan here?

at first listen the ooioo didn't grab me like the last few did, but maybe i should listen more.

it's no Gold & Green but it does quite nicely, I think, especially on the short-song-heavy 2nd side.

oops Green & Gold, that is.

i wasted a lot of time listening to music this year, these are some albums that made it worth my while.
i didn't take the ordering too seriously: #1 is the absolute best and #2 is second best, but after that it's really just give or take. also there's still a lot of stuff i haven't gotten around to listening to yet that i'm sure i'll love deeply, like the new boredoms, and sunn o))) too.

1) the-dream - love vs money
2) think about life - family
3) lil boosie - superbad: the return of boosie bad azz
4) destroyer - bay of pigs
5) ty segall/black time - split
6) nadja - the bungled and the botched
