2022: My Year In Music

MY TEN FAVORITE ALBUMS OF 2022
(IN NO PARTICULAR HIERARCHY)

/// Alvvays - Blue Rev
Playing only the best of the 80's, 90's, and today! 

/// Goon - Hour of Green Evening
The album title kind of says it all.

/// Maria Chiara Argirò - Forest City
Spectral bodies after the rain.

/// 
Toro Y Moi - Mahal
Groovy and woozy as ever.

/// Sơn FM - Points of Light
Let's get far out... far out to take a deep dive.

/// Palm - Nicks and Grazes
Wild interplanetary vibes man.

/// Disq - Desperately Imagining Someplace Quiet
Variety is the spice of a young, raucous life.

/// Animal Collective - Time Skiffs
After years of tripping, meditation may be on the horizon.

/// Nick Hakim - Cometa
Dudes got soul.

/// 
Talkdemonic - Various Seasides
Bathed in refracted light.

::: || HONORABLE MENTIONS OF 2022 || ::: 
i-sef u-sef - consistency
R&B = Rhythm & Bassoon.
Spoon - Lucifer on the Sofa
Never not good.
Zen Mother - Millennial Garbage Preach
A wicked wind this way comes.
Kae Tempest - The Line Is A Curve
Let them rap at you for a while.
MJ Lenderman - Boat Songs
A bag of Southern-fried funny bones.

::: || MY FAVORITE LIVE PERFORMANCE OF 2022 || ::: 
Animal Collective at The Knitting Factory - Boise, ID
It was a long time coming, but I finally got to bliss out to one of my favorite bands of all time.
