Yes you must. It'a at least as good as The Brothel. Do you have Spotify? Wimp?

 

I don't have either, but I can get a Spotify account. Whether the American Sptify will have her album or not, though, I can't say. Would it better to get Wimp? (I've never heard of that site/program.)

So it's almost April... meaning 1/3 of the year has already gone by. It's definitely been a slow year for music but here are my 5 favorite albums so far (in alphabetic order):

 

Beach House - Bloom

Chromatics - Kill For Love

Grimes - Visions

John Talabot - fIN

Julia Holter - Ekstasis

 

Also special mention for Burial - Kindred EP. It's not an album but it's undoubtedly the best music release so far :love:

 

And also 5 worst albums (in alphabetic order):

 

Lana Del Rey - Born to Die

of Montreal - Paralytic Stalks

The Shins - Port of Morrow

Sleigh Bells - Reign of Terror

Tennis - Young & Old

I don't know if it's worth it, it depends how you listen to your music.

 

I could just give a link :tongue:

 

 

I've just heard White Foxes and now must hear the whole album :dazzled:

Is it streaming somewhere?

And she's kinda hot btw

 

Yes, you must! I think it's on YouTube if you just want to listen to it.

Yes :wacky:

Thank you so very much, Will! I appreciate your kindness. :hug:

 

Anyway, to get back on topic, I listened to Emeli Sandé's debut album, "Our Version of Events." It's pretty awesome. If you like soulful pop, you should check it out.

also the new Miguel EP is definitely worth listening to if you're into R&B

Great shoutout for the Blondes album btw. One of the few 2012 albums I've been enjoying.
