Mostly posting music I'm listening to. Weighted towards heavy sounds. Open to recommendations. Love exploring and discovering new sounds.
I liked the most recent Cult of Luna album so expected to like this. They’re performing it in full at #arctangent.
There was a moment in the first track where I wasn’t sure it was going to live up to the hype. But we got past that and this is solid, sludgy post metal.

Working through some more headliners for #arctangent. Chelsea Wolfe is one I want to see. This recent album of alternate folk/rock is very good. I could perhaps go for a slightly less cleanly produced sound but I’m being picky.

Saint Etienne on the radio this morning. Don’t think there’s a song that so instantly transports me back to my Uni years. Pure mid-90s pop.

Primus headline #Arctangent next year and I don't know that I've ever really heard them. Based on this album I'd be satisfied to leave it at that. A concept album with a concept I didn't much like.

A lot of this sounds liek I could have been listening back in the 80s/90s. New wave synth sounds with just enough of a post-punk feel to move beyond nostalgia.

Arctangent Headliners announced.
Conjurer and Cult of Luna standing out as they've been recent listens. But I'm there for as many bands as possible and I think it's the small acts that excite me most.

And finally put on the new Chat Pile, in part to tick another off the #arctangent playlist. This collaboration with Pedigo is a much slower, softer experience then I’d expect from them. I liked it a lot.

I found this album both a comfortingly retro sound and also a bit boring. I’m torn on it. It feels fully out of the 1960s but after a while it’s a little bland. Fine in small doses.

The new Ningen Isu album is pretty good. It’s a consistent, old school metal sound. None of the weirdness I normally go for, but there’s something about how rock solid their performance is that appeals.

Still got some more albums to mention.
Had a long wait in the car today and killed the battery listening to music. Luckily got it jump-started without much delay.

Seeing all the mentions of its 40th birthday I put on Psychocandy.
I think it would be fair to call this one of my formative albums. One of many bands introduced to me by my older brother returning from Uni for the holidays. Then played relentlessly on an nth generation cassette copy.

Decided to start listening to next year’s #ArcTanGent line up. Igorr is something, a weird curiosity box that I couldn’t stop listening to but wasn’t sure I really liked! I’m all for the variety but some of it just seemed a bit silly.
