AFI (The Blood Album) by AFI

Nothing interesting here. Totally only listened to half of it.

Hang by Foxygen

I'm not crazy about this style. Seemed perfectly cerebral and stylized in interesting ways... but I just had to skip it after about 5 songs. Probably will come back to this one.

J'ouvert by Wyclef Jean

Couple ok songs (Hendrix, Life Matters, If I was President, Lady Haiti) but nothing that was banging. Also The Ring was interesting lyrically.

VOIDS by Minus The Bear

Dug Give & Take and one other song I can't remember now. Pretty ok album, probably would listen to it again, but also nothing terribly interesting.

Dream Machine by Tokio Hotel

Will never listen to this album ever again. I wanted to strangle someone.

Volcano by Temples

IDK - kind of like the last Temples record I listened to. I could see myself getting into it more, but really just don't find it that intriguing. Seems like a messy lackluster emotionless ride probably not worth my time? Idk convince me!

Heartworms by The Shins

Somehow I like Mildenhall... it's totally different for them, but I think they executed it really well.

Otherwise, while I have some kind of long lost interest in the Shins, I don't really find this album terribly interesting.

Grower?

Ok so I slowed down and listened to Heartworms and Volcano a couple more times. Heartworms didn't really do much for me, but Volcano actually is turning into a grower.

Spirit by Depeche Mode

Some stuff had some fantastically powerful lyrics. Musically wasn't terribly interesting. Ok and all, but nothing terribly interesting.

34 albums in and I gotta slow down and listen to some of these and really assess them.

For example, I'm digging Elbow's album a bit more. Thought it a bore at first, but it's really growing on me.

LCD Soundsystem's album became slightly less intriguing. Like not bad at all, but I nearly eargasmed to it before and now I'm just like, wow, this is great still. Might be my mood, but there's a chance Beck will kick it down to 2nd place? Dunno.

Part of me wants to skim so more albums and part of me really is just happy with what I have so far. It's plenty.

Media junkie?
