I look great from the back. |
The whole month of May I was planning on doing the June Playlist early. I kept emailing myself suggestions, so that when it came time to put together the list, it would be a breeze. And here we are on June 2nd and I'm just finalizing it. As I was putting the list together I listened to the new one from The Darkness... it's kind of a turd.
At any rate, here's June! Same as always, one new album and one "classic" album a day. This month finds the youngest album I'm passing off as a classic, Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds released in 2011.
There are also a lot of broads this month, Florence And The Machine, Heart, Blondie, Janis Joplin, Melody Gardot, and Imogen Heap... it just kind of worked out that way.
New stuff is mainly freshly released albums, with a few records from last year that I wanna "catch up" on. (Broken Bells, Hold Steady, Imogen Heap, Mac DeMarco)
Oh! Since doing the Year Of Music in 2013 and this year, I have listened to over 700 albums! And not one of them was from Joy Division! What a crime! So, I threw Unknown Pleasures at the end of the month.
Enjoy!
