Slow Pulp
Veruca Salt

There has been so many amazing albums this year I know I'm for sure forgetting some 1. Big Ideas- Remi Wolf If you were to ask me one artist that would show my vibe, it'd be Remi
2. The Accident-Good Morning This album just came out and it's all I've been listening to... it's already a life long favorite
3. Charm- Clairo This is the first and only album I've ever listened to, but it was a big one this summer. Up until then I literally thought she was a teenager.
4. Alligator Bites Never Heal- Doechii I think about her growls during her Tiny Desk concert multiple times a day
5. I Got Heaven- Mannequin Pussy I GOT A LOUD BARK, DEEP BITE!!!! 🗣️
6. I Wanna Run Barefoot Through Your Hair- Christopher Owens Beautiful sounds about love, what more could you want
7. News Of The Universe- La Luz Someone here recommended this album right when I joined... I don't remember who but thanks 🫶
8. New Sound- The Geordi Greep I Love Shaking Ass To Geordi Greep
9. Fruit for Flies- The Army, The Navy the HARMONIESSSS!!
10. Bodies Laughing- The Smile I'm a Radiohead girlie thru and thru, of course I loved this album Givens because you know why:
BRAT- Charli XCX

it's been another week so that means a lot of music! first time listens:
⋆ *NEW* billy woods - Not gonna say the name of the record because it's pretty offensive, but this is an amazing new album that I enjoyed a lot. It's so dense and claustrophobic with these crazy grimy and sample-heavy beats, all paired with billy woods rapping his ass off. Easily an AOTY contender for me, 9/10 for now but planning on listening more!
⋆ Brand New ~ The Devil And God Are Raging Inside Me - Can't believe I never checked out this album, it was really really good. Loving literally every song, especially Sowing Season, Limousine, and Not The Sun! what's been in rotation:
‣ The Smiths - HECK yeah
‣ Jeff Buckley - I put my mom on Jeff Buckley this week and she liked him!
‣ femtanyl - Every single song constantly on loop, I keep trying to find similar artists or songs but there's NOTHING :(
‣ Cameron Winter ~ Heavy Metal - Obviously. Geese band too
‣ BCNR ~ Ants From Up There - Obviously again
‣ Weatherday ~ Hornet Disaster - Still loving this record a couple months after release, definitely top 3 of the year for me. Just great noisy slacker rock all the way through
‣ Jane Remover ~ Revengeseekerz - Current favorite album of the year
‣ Adrianne Lenker - <3
‣ Paris Texas - A few songs on repeat from the double EP, mostly infinyte, mudbone, and No Strings. Just really fun music! Looking forward to some more listening this upcoming week!!
Rewatching it right now is hitting something very specific in me that I needed - some kind of outlet for grief & pathos & humor Current favorite quote: Albert‘s unexpected “I love you, Sheriff Truman”
