If Kevin Seconds can write and record 400 songs in 2015, I can listen to 500 albums that I've never heard before in 2016 and blog about it.

This is going to be my project for the upcoming year. Rolling Stone publish their annual list as well as an 'all time greatest ' list. But I'm certainly not using those albums though I may take a few.

Please list suggestions here. If I've never heard it before and it looks interesting, I'd like to check it out.

...Do you have a suggestion??

Hardy-har-har.

Seriously though, you looking for alternative type shit or like small local bands or bigger bands that you might not be aware of and that we think you'd like or god awful shit that might be fun to destroy?

Anything. Except rap/hip hop or country

How much are you planning to write about each album?

As a once dedicated blogger, I think with the amount of albums more than a couple of sentences for each album is over-ambitious.

Yes, I agree. Will only be a few sentences unless I really like it.

I think you might enjoy this.

Whooa, this is REAL good. Sounds like a well recorded update on old schooly skate thrash.

I was reading Small takeover today and I found some good stuff;

Mefisto - The Megalomania Puzzle
Strange band.

the Everly Brothers' "Cathy's Clown,"

I have no clue what you're looking for but if it doesn't have to be strictly Punk/Hardcore:
http://iamshark.limitedrun.com/products ... ater-vol-3

I don't really remember a lot about the bands on the first 2 volumes but I got hooked on a couple of bands on the third compilation. I personally really liked the emo/math rock tracks on this compilation. Some bands on this compilation have never released anything though. Some are famous (like toe and American Football). And it's legally free.

Forgive me if this sits on the wrong side of the borders of your taste.

This is fine. Will add it to my list. Thank you.

Is the Desperate Journalist self-titled album on Spotify? If so, give that a spin and see what you think. Based on some of the other albums you've reviewed, you may like it. I dig it plenty, one of my fav's from 2015 that not many people seem to know about.

Noted and thank you!

It would be cool if the guy that ran that blog ever replied to comments and became sociable with his 2 blog followers.

Agreed. I recommended an album in a comment on his Rose Tattoo review and the guy totally big-timed me and didn't respond.

Just in...this Desperate Journalist is indeed REALLY good. Just the kind of stuff that I've been on a kick with recently. thanks!

Well, of course you need to check out the debut Too Many Voices record that came out last year!

(It's on Spotify and all those other streaming services as well).

Cool, glad you enjoyed it! Smiths-y guitar jangle without all the Morrissey crooning. Vocalist Jo has a killer voice and they're pretty great live to boot (seen them a few times). Not toured outside Europe yet but I'd imagine them going down well in some music circles around North America. I'll have to think of another one for your list.

Yes, I definitely hear The Smiths' music in there. I listened to the whole album around 4 times in a row. My favorite songs are Heartbeats and Distance.

Give the Red Rockers "Condition Red" as spin.

I played that album already last year. I like it.

I need suggestions. I'm getting as stale as Scanny's underpants.

I'm giving all the dead rockstars' music that I never heard a rest.

I need fresh music from new artists, that AREN'T assholes. Well theoretically they could be assholes. I'd just prefer to not know about it.

Silver Screams
The Thirteen
The Gerunds
Municipal Waste
Black Flag - My War

here are a few that may be new to you

Volunteer - Goner

Cool. I liked the first song. Sounds sludgy so I bought the EP.

Looking forward to checking it out this weekend.

Get Rad - Choose Your Own Adventure

https://getrad.bandcamp.com/album/choose-your-own-adventure

How is this quest coming along?

Listening what I got offline but will update the site this weekend.

The remixes of M's 'POP MUSIK' should be able to carry you through the end of July at least.

Do you write about EPs? Or only full lengths?

One day I will have to dig out my 45rpm of "Pop Music" and send it to you.
