man I wish I had heard Youth Code in time for the 2013 poll nominations. I don't keep up with EBM normally but this is right in my zone, especially Sick Skinned which sounds like early Ministry or something.
― crüt, Tuesday, 14 January 2014 18:33 (ten years ago) link
So far I've been going through the 2013 ILM tracks nominations so mostly that. It's led to me discovering Bilal (prefer his other two albums really) and the genius of the Charli XCX album. Totally unrelated to that I've listened to a bunch of Sleater-Kinney albums for the first time and have become a bit obsessed with them.

yeah that one is a little weird inasmuch as he seems oddly close to his mom for a middle-aged man. But it's still a pretty sweet song. And the song about his dad is awesome.

New Alt-J so thin keep wanting 2 brush it away. Look fwd 2 Spotify commercials. Actual bests: Weeny "Left Hand Free," daycare cover art.The Pains of Being Pure At Heart's's Days of Abandon Deluxe Edition adds five keepers, esp. "Poison Touch," ft. lithe beats & A Sunny Day In Glasgow's Jen Goma, as do all the best tracks, though The Pains' own vocals have grown on me okay (still not great, but they do their bit). Nerf layers accumulate on the three duds, but mostly, this dream pop earns its tag and actually rocks a bit (most of the distinctive instrumental turns come from the rhythm section).

Also, as mentioned at some length on Robert Wyatt thread, letting the 2-disc comp w same title as new bio, Different Every Time carry meee away.
