Am I finally getting old?
Currents wasn't that stand out but I can't stop listening to it so I shoehorned it in. Also I've just started liking Drake and so I imagine my view of that album will be dampened somewhat. I do however love The Epic, really can't get enough of it. And yeah Carrie and Lowell isn't quite as amazing as others make it out to be, but I think it's still excellent. Honestly I haven't kept up to date particularly this year so it'll probably look pretty different at the end of the year. Also I thought Shadows in the Night was just brill.
