Music I’ve bought in July.
Huh, I bought a lot of stuff. Here’s some of the more notable ones:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mKb02QLPnXYI absolutely love the album by Little Barrie & Malcolm Catto — I was playing it on repeat while on the balcony last week. Very slinky.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZU6UYiH19-cThe Snapped Ankles live album is great.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sER0FzJO-c0I saw Chat Pile live this spring, and I’m buying all their albums (but spreading it out a bit). The God’s Country album is fantastic — and this song has the best lyrics ever.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z2BplWSCZpYThe new Little Simz album is so good.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hnp_Y-jES8oThe band with the amusing name M(h)aol has an album out that’s pretty awesome.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bf4x36XKhsMAnd I was so fascinated by the credits song for Everybody’s In LA (that actually funny comedy show) that I bought the album. Which is by Wang Chung, who I always thought was, er, Cheech & Chong. Or perhaps Chungking Express. But they’re not. And the album is very smooth, kinda yacht rock-ey, and I like it.
Yes, it’s been a really good month for new music.
