words about music

so I've reached that point where everything on my ipod results not in head-bopping, hearing pleasure, but eye rolling, a sigh, and skipping of every single song. and thus I realized which albums are my absolute favourite. so I figured I'd share them with the internet, because what does the internet enjoy more than pictures of cats with poor grammar eating cheeseburgers, and insulting memes? music. whether that includes exclamations of 'OMG I LIKE, LOOOOOVE THIS SONNGGGG TOOOO' or 'why would you even listen to this crap, you're like soooo uncultured', the internet definitely enjoys talking about music.

so here we go. or here I go. whatever.

oh, but first:

DISCLAIMER: 
all opinions in this blog post and overall blog are my own, and I do not expect anyone else to have or support my opinions, nor will I tear you down if you do not agree with my views. also if you post hate comments, I will call you a petty little shit, and no fucks will be given, because internet hatred is about as impacting to me as a grasshopper kicking my snow tires. so anyways.

okay, first up

Two Door Cinema Club's album, Beacon



now, I had never heard of this band before. I was on itunes, and, being the cheapass I am, keeping a close eye on the weekly free song downloads. the song Sun was up for grabs. I pressed play, and fell in love. I bought it the album, and fell head over heels with the entire album. among all the song-skipping boredom, this album is something I can listen to for days straight, and still love it.

okay, next up.

Alt-J's An Awesome Wave



it was just shy of 2am. I was wandering through the alternative genre section of the itunes store, and I came across Alt-J. at the first listen, I wasn't a fan, and almost passed over them completely. however, something about their song Tesselate made me click the 'buy' button, and lo and behold, a love affair with this album began. in extension, at least three of my friends are now obsessed with Alt-J, and I'm pretty proud of that. this is Alt-J's debut album, and, for a first release, it's amazing. they have a wonderful, unique sound, and I'm practically foaming at the mouth in excitement for future releases. the song 'Breezeblocks' has to be one of my top favourite songs of all time, and I am forever pissed off at my car speakers for being shitty and butchering the bass line.

and finally, anything by Mother Mother is, of course, amazing. I will forever be ashamed of myself for taking this long to listen to them, because, wow, are they ever fantastic. if you haven't listened to them yet, I definitely recommend you do, and I'll throw some links in at the end of this post, along with the two songs by Alt-J and Two Door Cinema Club mentioned above.

so that's all I've got for you for now. holllaaaa
