Yeah...both their albums are good and I've been meaning to listen to them again as it's been a while.

I wouldn't call it a drone metal album, as it's more in the vein of what Earth's been doing recently, but it's certainly drone. Waves of Eyvind Kang's violas and stephen's titanic guitar crash at the shores of this great, atmospheric album. worth the listen, 9/10

Yeah, this a great album. One of my personal favorites from this year

Been listening to X'ed Out by Tera Melos A LOT lately. Superb album.

Been digging on Childish Gambino for the last couple days. Hadn't heard of him before, but really liking his stuff.

The other collaborators are members of Ghost and Jesse Sykes and The Sweet Hereafter, and I completely forgot that this had come out! Thanks for the reminder and I am all over this ****.

Teen Dream - Beach House

If you're looking for melodic dream pop, look no further. It's been on repeat since 3'oclock last night.

Baaba—The Wrong Vampire
A 2012 reinterpretation of Krzysztof Komeda's soundtrack to Roman Polanski's 1967 film The Fearless Vampire Killers performed by Polish band Baaba. Loving it. It sounds like 1960s swinging bachelor pad jazz mixed with 80s video game music, 70s synths and occasional bursts of metal.

The Ex + Tom Cora- Scrabbling at the Lock

A fantastic collaboration between Anarcho-avant-punk rockers The Ex and avant-garde cellist Tom Cora. The end result is a chaotic yet melodic album that serves as a melting pot for tons of genres and creating a wholly organic masterpiece out of them.

Ooh, I heard that album once a long time ago and remember enjoying it. It was on my "to get" list for a long time but I had forgotten about it until now. I'll have to track that bad boy down.

Thee Oh Sees - Floating Coffin

I've been binging on garage rock since seeing Scott Pilgrim a few months ago. This album is very satisfying, and probably contains the band's most memorable work of their most recent albums.
