Re: Your Top 5 Bands and/or Musicians of all Time
I don't discover a lot of new music, as I mostly listen to dad rock and 70's prog (shoutout to all the dads out there), but I've been pretty obsessed with a new band who put out their first album this year called "the first glass beach album". It's a really interesting mix of MCR-style 00's emo and more recent AltJ-style folktronica. Really fun record.

Re: Your Top 5 Bands and/or Musicians of all Time
Without a doubt my favorite 2020 album releases:
Sleepy Sun - Fever (Desert God quickly jumped into one of my favorite songs) edit: turns out it's a 2010 release, go figure
King Buffalo - Dead Star (I like a few tracks more than others, Orion (2016) was a stronger album for me start-to-finish from them)
Glass Animals - Dreamland (How to Be a Human Being (2016) was tough to follow)
...plus several hip hop singles.

I believe that album came out in 2010. Thanks for bringing that song to my attention though. I only know "Marina".Eli Watson wrote: ↑Thu Dec 31, 2020 12:08 pm Without a doubt my favorite 2020 album releases:

Rachel Fannan was awesome with them. I saw her with Black Mountain on their last tour. I really dig Black Mountain, but they really need to fire their sound guy. Saw them at the Bluebird in 11/19, and it was way too loud and distorted.
Speaking of Black Mountain:

Happy 74th birthday to David Bowie:
This week is also the 5th anniversary of his death. I was in Los Angeles in February 2016 and visited his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, which his fans had lovingly decorated for Valentine's Day:

I don't know if I could live without the music of Charles Mingus. I certainly wouldn't want to try:

I also thought 9patrickmurphy was at least 60 years old. What's up with that avitar?9patrickmurphy wrote: ↑Thu Dec 31, 2020 10:25 am I don't discover a lot of new music, as I mostly listen to dad rock and 70's prog (shoutout to all the dads out there), but I've been pretty obsessed with a new band who put out their first album this year called "the first glass beach album".

Let's tie this in to the "when are you old" thread.
If you thought the south park clip was funny, then you are old. If you didn't think it was funny, you are really old. If you just thought it was pointless and stupid, you are not old yet.
