Favorite Albums Of The (GASP) Decade???

[VREEEEVROOOOOW]

I tried narrowing it down to ten:

MONO - For My Parents
Godspeed You! Black Emperor - Asunder, Sweet and Other Distress
きのこ帝国 - 渦になる
Lumber Lung - Lumber Lung
Snowing - I Could Do Whatever I Wanted If I Wanted
Rebecca Brandt - Numbers & Shapes
rest of my life - What We Lack In Size, We Make Up For In Devotion
Football, Etc. - Audible
James Blake - James Blake
Carly Rae Jepsen - Dedicated

It's a bit arbitrary, I suppose. I could name ten more—twenty, fifty, more. The other MONO albums, the other God's Pee albums, the next two James Blake albums, SOPHIE, The Innocence Mission's last one, Dinosaur Jr's last one, MBV, Sigur Rós's Valtari, Saves the Day's s/t, Emotion by Carly Rae Jepsen... and that's avoiding what's already been mentioned, like Alcest, and just an endless slew of good records.


Anyway here's the best five minutes of the decade—last five minutes of: https://monoofjapan.bandcamp.com/track/unseen-harbor

12:10 has probably the best wall of guitar I've ever heard.

SOPHIE

Now we're talking! GFOTY! AG COOK! I love all that stuff!

[coldbrightsunlight]

I just can't remember what I've listened to over the last decade that has been So Good I Have To List It. I don't know what the bar for this is

The bar is: You'd be prepared to argue with D.o.S. for the entire duration of your first pint together.

No Falls of Rauros from either of you?

We both mentioned them

But yeah, I am tempted to go back and look at the best of the record threads from days of yore because I'm sure there's at least 50,000 records I'm missing here.

Like all the bong records from '10 onward. Probably Mana Yood Sushai if I had to pick one?

Falls are on my list ya goon.

[goroth]

Edited my list with a couple of ones I forgot.

And apparently 2010-2012 were the three years that music forgot. I really didn't listen to much new stuff then apparently. But man, 2013 hit hard. That was awesome.

Not sure if I need to make it public or something, but there's my list.

Not enough, obviously.

[coldbrightsunlight]

I couldn't even choose ONE. Surely that's a good mention. They've had a good decade.

Sunn - Monoliths & Dimensions,

Nice pics @cantremember! I saw Puce Mary live a couple times. She is super talented. Interesting choice on the PRURIENT pick of the decade! I listened to that COSMIC CHURCH album during a 'Nothing But Black Metal November' in 2015. Good times!

I mentioned it earlier but picking even one from THE BODY is tough. That's a good one to go with. That CD is in my car somewhere.

I used to like IRON LUNG a lot. I should put that album on today. Thanks m8!

I missed Puce Mary the only time (that I know of) she played in AZ a few years back and it bums me out hard thinking about it. I like a lot of prurient but that album is one that I listened to the most. I like that really long one he did a few years back but trying to make it through the entire thing is a chore.

I was really into black metal for a long time as you can probably tell haha. I soured on it after being in a band with some dudes and they wanted to go down a bit of a sketchy path, needless to say I moved on.

As for the body, all the waters should have probably been my pick but I think that one came out pre 2010, I could be wrong.

Iron Lung Playing a few shows with them at the beginning of the year and I'm very stoked on it. That album is great, they're great. Very stoked to see them live again!

I've been saying for years he's better off in a short and sweet format. My two all time favorite from him are less than 20 minutes (ANSWER TO GOD and UNMASKING THE INSECT).

I'll check those out! His catalog is so big I feel like I have barely scratched the surface. I also like Frozen Niagara but I get a lot of if mixed up if I'm being honest.

[goroth]

Shit, I remember liking Necrot a fair bit. Will have to check that out. And I know that I didn't give Mgla enough time, so I should remedy that too.

Mgla might be my favorite black metal band of all time. I love the guitar work on pretty much everything they've done. Highly recommend.
