Ah, my top three would have to be

MPP
Strawberry Jam
Sung Tongs

Haven't actually heard Centipede yet.

It can't compare to the rest of their stuff, but still very good, worth a listen for sure.

What about Feels?

Supersilent - 6 (2003)

I went into this thinking it would be a challenging listen. Turns out, it was actually quite accessible! Avant-garde experimental improvisation out of Norway.

Supersilent - 8 (2007)

I thought it'd be more of the same, but it's sufficiently different not to be repetitive. Nice!

Earthborn Evolution by Beyond Creation

been very much behind on the death metal of this year (a shame since I thought last year was very strong for the genre) so im doing some catchup. really dug these guys' 2011 release so im expecting good stuff here.

if anyones got some good dmetal from this year lemme know. thanks.

What other albums have you checked out?

That's the only one so far. Actually, I wouldn't have even known he did solo stuff if I hadn't seen your Lastfm list. :)

What's coming up soon, though, is Fast Cars, Danger etc, Labor Days, None Shall Pass, and Skelethon. In the next few days.

Labor Days and None Shall Pass are great albums. Keep us posted.

I'd recommend listening to Skelethon, then Labor Days and then None Shall Pass. If you like them and want to continue checking Aesop out after that, listen to the latest Hail Mary Mallon album instead of his other solo work.

Cheers, but I listen to everything in alphabetical order. Otherwise, I lose track.

That's unfortunate. I suppose it doesn't matter so long as you listen to his best work anyway.

Indeed. Don't worry! I don't become biased against artists because a particular album might be anything less than stellar. It's all good in the end. :)

I meant to say I hope listening to one of his "worse" albums early on doesn't put you off continuing through his discography.

It won't. I'm happy to give every artist several chances. Besides, I'm predisposed to like Aesop Rock because of Hokey Fright.

Just bought Monuments To An Elegy ... Smashing Pumpkins.

Beyonce - Beyonce (2013)

My first brush with Beyonce. It's musically quite good but lyrically quite filthy.

Bruce Springsteen - Born to Run (1975)

Wow. After that Beyonce filth, this is a breath of fresh air!

Still isn't better than Relationship Of Command. Still my 3rd favorite record of all time though.

Having reached his eighth day of life, my son was circumcised today. If he's old enough for that, he's old enough to lie in my arms and listen to Highway 61 Revisited with me. Our first album together!

She & Him - Classics (2014)

What a charming album! 13 covers of classic songs, recorded live and accompanied by a 20-piece orchestra.

Giraffage - Comfort (2011)

This is exactly my kind of music--beautiful, quirky, bouncy electronica.

(BTW, your censor sucks, MB! I've gotta trick your censor to write Giraffage, because you're oh-so deathly afraid of any little, bad, offensive word getting out and making the poor, wittle members cwy!)

Nope.

Giraffage

It censors me.

Just listened to the noises of two hours of swimming!

Which album is that?

Swim Team 2014 Dubstep Mix :laughing:

Couldn't find it on a Google search.

Jens Lekman's Oh You're So Silent Jens and Aztec Camera's High Land Hard Rain - they were a Hanukkah present, and as stupid as the whole concept of Hanukkah presents is, they're good albums so I'm happy.

Any album by Jens Lekman is a perfect gift for the holiday season. His music just has that quintessential wintery feel to it.

The Flesh Prevails by Fallujah

saw someone mention this here recently, but cant for the life of me remember who it was. sidewinder maybe?? anyway I didn't really have any strong feelings for their first album so i was only cautiously interested in this but I was in a death metal mood so thought id take a shot at it. and well it is much better than the debut. kinda has that "death by drowning" feel to it (as best I can describe the sort of dreamy nature of it). its been something ive listened to quite a bit the last few days, which has been a nice surprise that I keep coming back to it

http://www.portalsmusic.com/wp-conte.../unnamed-3.png

Words cannot describe my love for this album. I know it's a very unpopular opinion, but this Andrew Jackson Jihad album is my hands down favorite. I just found the download code inside my vinyl issue so I went and got the sucker. I think that every track is just absolutely killer on it, ooo I'm listening to it the second time tonight.

Tribal Jazz Rock from TexASS on lovely, lovely milky wax.

today I bought two of my favorite albums (Carpenters' "Close to You" and ABBA's "Voulez Vous") as 8-track cartridges.

this is terribly impractical but I couldn't think of a better way to start my collection.

TOKiMONSTA - Desiderium (2014)

Her latest. Very nice. Huge fan.

Ben Howard - Every Kingdom (2011)

Folk always hits home, but this is something special. Wow.

Watch The Throne - S/T

The track with Beyoncé makes me want to puke, but the rest is pure masturbatory bliss. I truly believe Hova and Mr. West jerked off every last drop of ego in this record.
