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

This is easily one of their best albums, if not their best which is saying a LOT.

If i havent heard one piece of material recorded in 2019, i would have been fine. that said, here’s some good stuff that came out this year:

Swans,
Purple Mountains,
Carla dal Forno.

then here’s some other albums i enjoyed, tho i wouldnt call it best of anything or something of the year. just a bunch of good records.

Stephen Malkmus, Big Thief’s both albums, Freddie Gibbs & Madlib, DJ Muggs & Mach-Hommie, Dury Dava, the Flaming Lips, Fontaines DC.

Iggy Pop is incredible on stage even ain his 70's. I also very much enjoyed Max Cooper’s live performance, his record is okay but it seems the visual part was pretty important too.

Track of the year: Not by Big Thief.
