Here's a list of stuff I've been digging recently.
The National - Trouble Will Find Me
Indie (2013)
Beautifully hopeless and seamlessly crafted. Their most intimate and in my opinion greatest album to date.
The Blood Brothers - Young Machetes
Post-Hardcore (2006)
Always been a fan of their raw power and unbalanced energy, listening to this album quite a bit in the last few weeks and it's just awesome.
Ulver - Peredition City
Post-Metal (2000)
Slick, refined album that makes me picture an urban city by nightfall, under the street lights and with the light drizzle of rainfall, a hooded figure stalks the back alleys. Just has that kind of atmosphere about it. Great record.
J.Cole - Truly Yours 2 (EP)
Hip-hop (2013)
One of my favourite rappers of the modern era, the always likeable J.Cole drops a completely solid EP which he says isn't, but hopefully is a precursor to how his new album's going to sound. Consistently good as ever.
