I feel like I'm in church when I listen to Bon Iver. Something about every song being in falsetto grates after a bit.

I can't stop listening to it. If I didn't have two kids under two I would have been watching them live at the Riverside last night. Great album.

It's still the saving grace of this year. So many releases this year have disappointed me. The Local Natives album - my most highly anticipated - was even disappointing, even though there were a handful of good tracks...just nothing remotely as compelling as Hummingbird, and some of it was far too melodramatic.

Here are some of the tracks I've been listening to recently. This indie track from High Highs has some of the airiness as Real Estate, mixed a bit with Wild Nothing.

This little indie electo-pop delight has been giving me good vibes the past couple of months.

And then this new single from The Griswolds has been pretty fun. Wish it would have been out earlier in the year to jam through the summer.

Actually feel like I'm finally starting to find a number of newer releases I like and can string together into a regular rotation.

We don't agree on most, if anything, related to the Bucks. But LSG? Yessssirrrr. "My body" was such a jam. Thanks for the flashback to Homecoming 1997. Haven't heard this song in forever. Going to add it to my phone from my library the minute I get home.

Lillard's album just dropped, pretty damn solid imo

I'd suggest stop using Spotify if you can...

http://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2016/11/for-five-months-spotify-has-badly-abused-users-storage-drives/

For almost five months—possibly longer—the Spotify music streaming app has been assaulting users' storage devices with enough data to potentially take years off their expected lifespans. Reports of tens or in some cases hundreds of gigabytes being written in an hour aren't uncommon, and occasionally the recorded amounts are measured in terabytes. The overload happens even when Spotify is idle and isn't storing any songs locally.

The behavior poses an unnecessary burden on users' storage devices, particularly solid state drives, which come with a finite amount of write capacity. Continuously writing hundreds of gigabytes of needless data to a drive every day for months or years on end has the potential to cause an SSD to die years earlier than it otherwise would. And yet, Spotify apps for Windows, Mac, and Linux have engaged in this data assault since at least the middle of June, when multiple users reported the problem in the company's official support forum.

"This is a *major* bug that currently affects thousands of users," Spotify user Paul Miller told Ars. "If for example, Castrol Oil lowered your engine's life expectancy by five to 10 years, I imagine most users would want to know, and that fact *should* be reported on."

Only 4 tracks in but G Da-yum it's good to hear new Tribe. I missed those boys.

Solid Wall of Sound is pretty...pretty...pretty...banging.

I'm shocked how good it is. Easily the best post-Marauders record and it feels like much more than a nostalgia exercise.

Me too. I've always been a fan but not rabid or anything. I think this may be there most complete work. Plus it makes me feel nostalgic. Which, as I get older, is a complex feeling. Joy and melancholy mixed into one.
