2025: Some Favs
It's sort of like if I had to load up a CD wallet with just albums from this year to carry with me into next year these are probably the albums I'd grab. (I'm probably forgetting some. This will annoy me.)
In no particular order. Generally.
-
AdwaithAlbum of the year.
-
OklouJust...yes. Undeniable? Undeniable.
-
Purity RingI love Womb and I'm honestly shocked to say I might love this one about as much.
-
Ninajirachi"No one in the world knows me better."
-
MommaThat cool feeling when you like a follow-up album more than you liked a first album (which you liked).
-
Miki Berenyi TrioWeirdly, though Lush should be a formative band for me, I never really listened to them before, which means I came to this album on its own terms, and I loved it, and then I went back, and now Lush is a formative band for me.
-
Erika de CasierI'm not a big R&B person? I am a big Lifetime person.
-
StereolabAny year with new Stereolab isn't all bad.
-
LightsMy kind of pop.
-
GanserTidal tells me I'm Ganser's 16th biggest fan.
-
Kathleen EdwardsHow have I never listened to Kathleen Edwards before?
-
Addison RaeIt's, like, fun, right?
-
BarkerSounds like leaving winter.
-
Steve HauschildtSounds like entering winter.
