Can I nominate Cardi B as the worst thing I have ever heard in my life? |

Greta Van Fleet is right up there with the Joanna Newsom outputs and The Monitor (which is really a 00's album at it's heart) as my favorite of the decade. Every song is consistently awesome. |

I remembered there was a new Morrissey album. Now I wish I didn't. It's pretty boring, as Morrissey and Marr often are without each other. Couldn't really get into Greta Van Fleet, ultimately just too derivative to truly enjoy. Same problem I had with Tame Impala. |

1. Manchester Orchestra - Black Mile 2. Father John Misty - Pure Comedy It was a weak year I think. edit: I guess distant honorable mentions to The New Pornographers, Kurt Vile / Courtney Barnett, and Circa Survive. |

You know what, I never really got into Joanna Newsom. I listened to Ys once maybe five or six years ago and it was too foofy. |

I'd probably like the New Pornographers' CD more if I didn't have Electric Version, Twin Cinema or Challengers to compare it to. The set a very high standard with those releases. |

I listened to less new music this year than I have in many years. I liked the new Father John Misty the most and also enjoyed the new War on Drugs and Fleet Foxes. Bagels, thanks for letting me know Feist had a new one out. I am giving it a spin now. |

Father John was in town not long ago....was teaching (and am way too old) that night, so couldn't go....but he's got a following here. We should see him next time he comes. |

I listen to music on YouTube almost all day and came across a live concert from Pitchfork of one of his shows. It is a good listen if you are working on something and want to have something on in the background. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BMuLZeAyySY |
