Great album. The backstory to it is kind of insane.

I heard one of this guy's songs this morning on your Avant-Garde country playlist you made on 8tracks. Definitely will check him out, kind of sounds like what Steve Von Till of Neurosis went in the latter half of the last decade in between making Neurosis albums.

David Pajo's folky covers of old Misfits songs. I can't believe I missed this until now. Sometimes it borders on sounding intolerably cute but most of the songs work really well in this context.

Shigeto's album Full Circle. A really unique and interesting mix of sounds here; clattering bottles, whispers, claps, monks, telephone dialing, etc. A few standout tracks for me are So So Lovely, Children at Midnight, and Relentless Drag.

Kitchens of Distinction - Love is Hell

Finally made it into the good stuff for 1989 after months of unremarkable albums and nearly writing the year off. Good shoegaze album. Starts off a bit slow, but it really comes around after Prize.

1989 really wasn't that bad, you had Doolittle by Pixies, Disintegration by The Cure, Playing With Fire by Spacemen 3, Paul's Boutique by Beastie Boys, The Stones Roses S/T, 3 Feet High and Rising by De La Soul, On Fire by Galaxie 500, Chasing Promises by Breatless, 13 Songs by Fugazi, Complete Discography by Minor Threat, Naked City by John Zorn, Hats by Blue Nile, Borderline by Asylum Party, Pretty Hate Machine by NIN and Tweez by Slint...

It wasn't the greatest year for music EVER, but personally speaking, there's a lot to dig from those twelve months.

There's a lot of decent and good stuff there, but On Land and In the Sea is the only album I would say I love from 89. I'm on a quest for a really solid top 20.
