Behind again on logging these, so short reviews:
-
Imaginary Appalachia – Colter Wall (Country * 2015)
April 2026 | Listened on vinyl with Ian. Our second Colter Wall listen. I’m a fan. -
Heaven or Las Vegas – Cocteau Twins (Dream Pop * 1985)
April 2026 | Listened with Jason in the car on a Sunday morning. | Cocteau Twins are one of Jason’s favorite bands, but this is the first time I’ve really listened. I liked it, and it was the first album that gave me a brainstorm of listening to a band’s whole catalog. Stay tuned for a Cocteau Twins week. -
Hello Nasty – Beastie Boys (Hip-hop * 1998)
April 2026 | I listened to this DOUBLE ALBUM with Ian, and … to my great surprise, I didn’t hate it. Since high school, I have filed the Beastie Boys in my head as “not for me.” But I’ll pretty much listen to anything Ian asks me to. And, truth be told, I’m glad I gave this album a chance. I liked it.
