Unassailable list. Haven’t listened to 2TH yet though.


Re: MH plays on CI, too - I know you know

She also plays on Michael Formanek Very Practical Trio - which made the biggest first impression on me. So that’s 3 from her goddamn

My favorite active band in the world

And that's gotta be my vote too, I'd even likely call it the best folk rock song ever written, it's basically a perfect song

And then on the other hand the title track of "U.F.O.F." is basically my favorite dream pop song too, crushing it in multiple genres
