Joe’s Hiplist Vol.2
It’s been strange weather in my hometown just few weeks before summer… and these songs came to order by themselves…
Craig Finn: I Need A New War
Sometimes I want to say that Craig Finn has made the same album again, changed a few names, addresses, maybe the people who inspire him have changed, but they all resemble each other; he has exchanged chords with that part of himself belonging to The Hold Steady, washed his face two times before going to the supermarket.
Glen Hansard: This Wild Willing
It is sad that Glen Hansard has still not reached the level of studio recordings that we expect of him longingly, but the albums are getting better and better, and the songs are more and more connected to his melancholic masculine music appearance, so with each new album, we’re really looking forward to hear the next one.
Tom’s Hiplist Vol.1
Songs picked in order to resurrect good karma in not promising situation, and it worked…
The Tallest Man On Earth: “Then I Won’t Sing No More”
Kristian Matsson, aka The Tallest Man on Earth, has reached the end of his five part series, When The Bird Sees The Solid Ground, with the beautiful “Then I Won’t Sing No More”. The series started out as a vision to create music outside of the restrictions of a typical album cycle. Matsson began recording and releasing music as it was written and pairing each song with a video episode, expanding on his longtime interest in photography and filmmaking.
Leah’s Hiplist Vol.1
Playlist created while doing laundry, ended up here out of pity for Joe’s psychoses…
