Maybe. Either way, I'll think about Plenty of time between now and whenever I start thinking about the next swap anyway.

Well I guess I missed this one, but if I'm still around I'd like to get back in on this next time.

You can swap albums with me if you really wanna take part? I don't mind reviewing two albums for this round - it may say weekly in the thread title, but I'm lazy when it comes to feedback, so it's closer to monthly so long as I'm in charge

We can do a swap, I was meaning to get in this round too.

Dr.Seussicide sent me Laura - Mapping Your Dreams



Since I took forever to finish my last review I figured I'd do the extreme opposite this time and get it up right after my initial listening. I usually try to listen to albums twice but this loving this album was a no brainer.

Laura is a post rock band and I loved the whole album all the way through. The album was mostly an instrumental, I heard vocals on the last track definitely and maybe one more but they were enjoyable when they were there and the instrumentals are strong enough to stand without them.

I don't know what it is with post rock and sludge but the two genres sound super similar to me sometimes and miles apart at others and this was one of the times it sounded similar. The album did a great job of conveying the emotion Laura was trying to express, you could just feel the intensity at times.

I highly recommend this album to anybody looking for some good post rock to listen too or anybody interested in checking out the genre.

Thanks Dr.Seussicide

edit - I'm downloading Radio Swan is Down right now and I hope it's just as good.

Could someone else take this over from me please? Not that you have to take part in it, just pair everyone who wants swap albums up. I'll be gone for a while, so won't really be able to do so myself...

I'd say anyone who can be relatively trusted to be active and actually want to organize this would be fine. All they really have to do is gather interest from this thread, then use random.org to make a list.

Also, sad to hear you'll be gone for a while, Bulldog.
