^My favorites of the year so far. I need to listen to all the 7 or so 2018 albums I have a lot more though. I've mostly focused on slightly older albums this year. Am aiming to change that and get up to date a little more for the rest of the year.

Only heard the Clear Tamei single so far but they are defo top priority

Frownland

Hermit and the Recluse - Orpheus Vs. The Sirens

Concept album about Greek mythology. Ka on the mic weaving esoteric and dense bars while Animoss hits it with some understated and nautical production. Lyrically it's a lot to unpack and like everything else I've heard from Ka, it just gets more rewarding the more I listen to it.

My updated 2018 AOTY:


공중도둑 [Mid-Air Thief] - 무너지기 (South Korea, Neo-Psychedelia / Folktronica / Psychedelic Pop)



Not only touches of Animal Collective but a strong Kishi Bashi feel in parts, too. And of course there's a strong Hundred Waters element present, but what I love about this album is the fact that something that's not **** K-Pop has come out of South Korea. What a relief!

Alghazanth - Eight Coffin Nails


This is the Finnish Symphonic Black Metallers final album they're splitting up.

And it's a great one to go out on.

Halo Maud - Je Suis Une Ile


One of the absolute front runners of 2018 for me thus far.

Psy-Fi

Psychedelic salsa for the soul.
