album of the Huh? say what now? #86

Giraffes? Giraffes! - More Skin With Milk-Mouth (2007)

sorry forgot
really flashy and interesting math rock
very quirky and fun to listen to, kinda short too (28 min)
some nice experimentation on the shorter songs

8/10, fav song: a quick one, while she's away

album of the day / #85

Swans - My Father Will Guide Me up a Rope to the Sky (2010)

this is really good actually
one half is the "big sound" that's prevalent in their post-reunion work, other half is bluesy and resembles "people like us" from TGM.
very underrated !!

8.5/10, fav song: eden prison

album of the unspecified time period / day 85

Songs: Ohia - The Magnolia Electric Co. (2003)

black midi - Hellfire (2022)

brutal & aggressive prog rock
perfectly complemented by greep's greepy vocals

idfk what they're singing about but it sound s fnuuy...
there's lots of jazz influenc.,es,

10/10, fav song: eat men eat

album of the day / day 83

The Beatles - Revolver (1966)

oughhhm,....pop rock
a LOT of psychedelic elements here
extremely influential
very much a product of its time, you might not like it

taxman peak?!?!

9/10, fav song: tomorrow never knows
May 8, 2025 at 9:42 PM
album of the day / day 82

Natural Snow Buildings - The Dance of the Moon and the Sun (2006)

probably the best drone album ever made
the concept of winter, converted into music
there are some cozy folk interludes sprinkled in, but this is mostly just sprawling drone soundscapes

10/10, no fav song
May 8, 2025 at 1:22 AM
album of the day / day 81

Kunteynir - Вес (2006)

one of the best hiphop albums i ever listened to
vulgar lyrics that seem to be telling a story but are mostly incoherent
the instrumentals are insane. they're so fucking good,.
also IDM interludes can you believe it!!!!

9/10, fav song: дало в ноги
May 7, 2025 at 12:12 AM
album of the day / day 80

Swans - The Glowing Man (2016)

the second most immense album i've ever heard!!
walls of droning multi instrumental noise, with pounding tribal rhythmic sections in between
and a couple bluesy interludes too
i still like tbk more though :3

10/10, fav song: the glowing man
May 5, 2025 at 11:27 PM
album of the day / day 79

Can - Ege Bamyası (1972)

less hypnotic krautrock with heavy funk influences
very groovy rhythms by the drummer, interesting vocals by damo suzuki
mostly normal but soup is batshit insane
it really is a soup of sound
VERY ahead of its time!!

9/10, fav song: sing swan song
May 5, 2025 at 12:39 AM
album of the day / day 78

The Future Sound of London - Environment Five (2014)

the best prog electronic album ever imo
alien soundscapes that still feel familiar
samples here blend in like they were recorded for this album specifically
go listen NOW,

9/10, fav song: in solitude we are least alone
May 3, 2025 at 12:41 AM
album of the day / day 77

Natural Snow Buildings - Daughter of Darkness (2009)

a 6 hour long free folk/drone album
i was pulling an all nighter listening to this and i think i have an ancient disease now
this is a fucking terrifying album. don't repeat my mistakes.

10/10, fav song: black pastures
May 1, 2025 at 8:52 PM
album of the day / day 76

Tapir! - The Pilgrim, Their God, and The King of My Decrepit Mountain (2024)

a lush and peaceful indie folk/rock album split up into three acts!!
also drum machines are used beautifully.
no idea why people aren't talking about this more!

9/10, fav song: On A Grassy Knoll
April 30, 2025 at 11:02 PM
album of the day / day 75

АукцЫон - Птица (1994)

THIS is probably the best russian album if you were to ask me
not a single second wasted.
folk rock and art rock are apparently a peak combo
some elements of avant prog i think?
and smidges of art punk and folk punk...

9.5/10, fav song: спи, солдат

album of the day / day 74

Black Country, New Road - For the First Time (2021)

their debut :3
this is a brilliant example of modern art rock!!
isaac wood still sounds like he's going to break down crying
sax and violins are present in this record, not safe for children!!

9/10, fav song: sunglasses
April 29, 2025 at 1:26 AM
album of the day / day 73

Аквариум - Радио Африка (1983)

a cornerstone of russian rock!!
this record blends jazz, art, & psych rock, new wave, funk, & recordings of radio static with distorted broadcasts!
kinda like the beatles but more genres and better (sorry ert)

9/10, fav song: Вана хойя

:3c

album of the day / day 72

Boards of Canada - Music Has the Right to Children (1998)

another electronic record!!
very nicely executed idm/downtempo with some bits of ambient and tv samples
almost hypnotic?
relaxing in general, but has some danceable tracks!!

9/10, fav song: ROYGBIV

:3 (MCMXCVIII)
April 27, 2025 at 1:17 AM
album of the day / day 71

Queen (1973)

the debut album by the band with the same name!!
an outstanding record from an otherwise boring genre!
they made hard rock actually good
has some little elements of prog
overall great, but could be just a little longer

8.5/10, fav song: great king rat

:3

album of the day / day 70

The Microphones - Mount Eerie (2003)

this is a STACKED album in all senses
it's about phil becoming one with the universe after death
the sound is experimental but somehow accessible at the same time
it's just indescribable
truly a masterpiece

10/10, fav song: I. The Sun
April 25, 2025 at 1:22 AM
album of the day / day 69

The Magnetic Fields - 69 Love Songs (1999)

a nearly three hour long album, that has 69 songs. guess what they're about!
something between pop rock and americana, with some songs that are more electronic
this record has too much filler!

8/10, fav song: all my little words
April 23, 2025 at 8:56 PM
album of the day / day 68

Thom Yorke - Anima

a certain brit's third solo effort!
and oh boy, it does NOT disappoint
on par with weaker radiohead albums imo
glitchy, wonky, weird, and often ominous?
the genre is once again unclear to me
def my favourite tom yor album !!

9/10, fav song: dawn chorus
April 23, 2025 at 12:34 AM
album of the day / day 67

Sigur Rós - Ágætis byrjun

very tranquil post-rock/dream pop album!!
feels like i am watching things happen from a long distance
jónsi's voice compliments the sound of the album
almost perfect front to back
not quite a 10/10 though

9/10, fav song: Viðrar vel til loftárása
