Did Hecker talk shit about WATMM or something? I am real curious why he's a running joke to so many of y'all.

some legendary fiction is to be found in the love streams thread.  exactly how it started is probably an unanswerable question.

haha awesome, it's been a while since I perused watmm regularly. Fun reading for tomorrow 

Rough Trade's AOTY list, they seem to be more in common with watmm than blerp is.

I need to check this out again - seems like one of those that randomly clicks multiple listens later

That's a different list from the official Rough Trade albums of the year 2018 list

This only stood out to me because I've been involved with shooting footage for Mark Peters' video, and I knew his album was at number 8.

Already tried again due to the end-of-year praise it's getting here, but still nothing.

have to say the Suspiria OST is quite special, been punching myself to play that more

might check a few of these out

but I'll be giving the Arctic Monkeys a wide berth though, I hate that geezers voice with a passion and the new songs I've had to endure while listening to BBC6 just are a no-go zone for me.

Yes and it deserves its presence in that list.

man I was a such a Doom fanboy up until Born Like This - after that I kind of lost track of what he's done

saw him live in 2005 - decent show but a bit short, way late - at least he didn't have a stand-in there

What the fuck? Had no idea either and I love the guy. And generally, when he releases something there's so much to do about it that you can't miss it even if you're not in the hippity hoppity community. Cool beans, gonna listen right now!

It felt like a future classic from the first listen. Beautiful stuff.

Marie Davidson Working Class Woman

Marie Davidson's fourth solo album is her most introspective but playful work yet, as well as her most sonically daring.
