Channel Orange – Frank Ocean
One of the best soundtracks for a reflective walk of all time, Channel Orange took Frank Ocean from an Odd Future R&B guy with buzz directly to the mainstream of popular music, where he has remained, enigmatically, for about a decade. Who knows if he will ever put out another album again. If he does, Continue reading

Blonde – Frank Ocean
A follow-up to Channel Orange on my blog and in real life – or maybe not my blog. I have no idea how you all read this shit. If you are reading this on an email, come on over and comment that you read this on an email. Or just text me that you read Continue reading

Go For Your Guns – Isley Brothers
The Isley Brothers are one of the more underrated groups of all time simply due to the amount of Isley Brothers songs that we’ve all heard and did not know they were Isley Brothers songs or songs by the Isley Brothers or samples from Isley Brothers songs. Right? Seriously though, the amount of renditions/samples/covers of Continue reading

The End of Comedy – Drugdealer
In comparison to the other Drugdealer album(s?

While I still appreciate certain songs on Continue reading

But Here We Are – Foo Fighters
Thank you, Dave Grohl, once again. This album had a lot leading up to it, and honestly I wasn’t sure if it would ever come out. I admire Dave Grohl greatly – not just for his musical ability but for being someone who views life in an incredibly positive, emotionally intelligent way, and has dealt Continue reading

Anything in Return – Toro y Moi
A staple of my blog, Toro y Moi aka Chaz Bear’s 2013 release Anything in Return really put him on the map, marking a transition from chillwave to more traditional house music. For many, songs like Rose Quartz and So Many Details strongly associate this album with riding around in GTA V. Core memories. Overall Continue reading

Street Worms – Viagra Boys
A re listen to an amazing punk/rock album from one of the strangest but best bands currently out. If you do not know the V boys, they are a Swedish band that got an initial pop from their Cake like song ‘Sports’ which contains some of the better lines you’ll hear, including: BaseballBasketballWeiner dogShort shortsCigaretteSurf Continue reading

OK Computer – Radiohead (redux)
Hello again, mothafucka. This one is going to touch a lot of different shit so be prepared. Or maybe it’ll just touch like three things. First off, apologies to the people that do read this blog. I would be lying if I didn’t admit that hearing from people about my lack of output was nice. Continue reading
