Curt McGirt Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 This is the last song I heard this year, played by a local band on Channel 3 WCIA, while our Crack WCIA Newsteam were getting drunk and filming it. Which of course can only remind me of something far more positive I CAN ONLY ASK THAT MUCH FROM THIS YEAR GODDAMMIT GIVE ME A NEW YAMAKAWA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone? @BL88 the last time I did it the turnout was like five people, and my idea for a replacement (the album club) slowly deflated. so, if someone else wants to try, sure.

Curt McGirt Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 Out of the hundred or so albums I've bought this year, there's only two that come to mind as being 2016 originals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 So, you bought? Corey Feldman - Angelic 2 the Core: Angelic Funkadelic / Angelic Rockadelic Train - Train Does Led Zeppelin II Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 No, I don't really want to eat a load of sleeping pills immediately, no matter how bad the year went. It was Tower - S/T Ripper - Experiment of Existence You can probably find both of those pimped in the metal thread. I have received some punk tapes and 7"s from this year but still playing catch-up. Everything else is burned stuff and at a glance I see one ridiculously deranged, glue-sniffing German hardcore record, my friend's long-term band's final EP (which is depressing as hell), a fair to middling power metal record, a much better and more ridiculous power/speed metal record and... nada. But not everything is filed by year in my computer. Given things, I think it's best we just let this one slide. Maybe just say the top ten for last year is Purple Rain, Songs I'll Always Sing, Songs from a Room, Ziggy Stardust... take your pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lamp, broken circa 1988 Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 I definitely have a top nine, and the top five is all stuff I return to frequently and will for another few months at the least. I just don't want to wrangle again. 1. Nicolas Jaar - Sirens 2. Thee Oh Sees - A Weird Exits 3. ScHoolboy Q - Blank Face LP 4. Jenny Hval - Blood Bitch 5. Danny Brown - Atrocity Exhibition 6. The Hecks - The Hecks 7. Bon Iver - 22, A Million 8. The Avalanches - Wildflower 9. The Fat White Family - Songs For Our Mothers Ten bounces between three different records (Gonjasufi, Scallops Hotel, Solange), most often landing on Scallops because Milo's my favorite MC. Honestly the big thing that cut into my music intake this year was being hobbled and house bound, counter intuitive as that seems. I take public transport so I used to take a longer route on the way home to try new records, and if I vibed with what i heard I'd put it on the big speakers when I got back to the house. Maybe instead we could put together like a favorite songs list? Everyone gets one track, so we end up with like some retrospective playlist.

Curt McGirt Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 New RTJ could arguably be more political but it's still great. "Thursday in the Danger Room" though... ugh, it just wrecks me. Didn't help hearing that right after what would have been a late friend's 30th birthday. Oh, and I'd be down for a favorite tracks thing, specifically because my Rixe 7"s just came in the mail and the better of them was from last year. French-speaking Oi! with a black panther on their logo and a name that translates to "brawl", what's there not to love? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it should have been more political, but I also see where you are coming from. I think they balanced the album really well between the political and making fun hip-hop songs. I've heard people say that they didn't like this as much as 1 and 2, but I think this one is great. I've been trying to catch up on all the music I missed from last year, but keep coming back to "Run the Jewels 3" and "Awaken My Love." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 The political thing is part of a convo I had with a friend of mine on Facebook today about the album. He said that Killer Mike has been in the mix all year (talking to Bernie, etc.) but there are only two or so songs that hit on anything political, then said "well, they probably finished it before the election". And also, "well, it's also not MY band" haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jstout Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 Dunno if this is the best place for this, but if you missed Sturgill Simpson on "Saturday Night Live" last night, get to Googlin'. Fantastic performances. I used to think he was the future of country music, but he's transcending country. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curt McGirt Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 Because I got these in the mail today too I had no idea Algy Ward from Tank played bass on the latter Also, if you haven't heard that before, you should really really listen to it. It's like Damned's version of London Calling, only (IMO) better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
