Angus & Julia Stone (2014)

My (not so) recent trip to Melbourne yielded some surprising good Aussie music that continues to reward. One of my favorites was Dope Lemon’s “Smooth Big Cat” on pretty picture disc vinyl - it’s just fantastic!

Stereolab - Peng! (1992)

Fantastic debut record from a band I couldn’t do any sort of justice by trying to describe. Led by French vocalist Laetitia Sadier, this just oozes cool.

Tool - Fear Inoculum (2019)

It’s only been 14 years since their last record! What’s the big deal! Listening for the first time with my best pair of headphones, it’s something I thought I would never hear in 2019.

Radiohead - In Rainbows (2007)

Absolute awesomeness from the worlds best band from Oxford. Recently purchased on vinyl to add to my “must-have-on-vinyl” list. There’s a few “must-haves” from the R-Heads.

Hurts - Exile (2013)

One of my less-than-$2-purchases, this completely bombastic, thickly layered, schizo-genre jumper is nevertheless an intriguing and baffling listening experience. There’s nothing here resembling a real instrument but the beats and hooks are infectious.
