VV Brown - Samson & Delilah - http://bugsy0123.blogspot.co.uk/2013...d-delilah.html

[Tom4784]

I'm very fond of Both CHVRCHES and VV's albums. My Last.FM for the last few weeks has basically consisted of CHVRCHES and Haim.

[Shaun]

HAIM are my next review

[Black Dagger]

I'm curious to see what you think of HAIM, I remember you dismissing them when they won the BBC sound of poll (I haven't seen if you've mentioned them since)

I really like them a lot

[Tom4784]

Haim are lovely.

Holy Ghost! - Dynamics: http://bugsy0123.blogspot.co.uk/2013...-dynamics.html

Yuck - Glow & Behold: http://bugsy0123.blogspot.co.uk/2013...nd-behold.html

[Shaun]

coincidentally, what's in those brackets now documents my reaction to this album:

Lorde - Pure Heroine: http://bugsy0123.blogspot.co.uk/2013...e-heroine.html

i'm quite pleased with my concluding paragraph

[Shaun]

Drake - Nothing Was the Same: http://bugsy0123.blogspot.co.uk/2013...-was-same.html

[Shaun]

Miley Cyrus - BANGERZ: http://bugsy0123.blogspot.co.uk/2013...s-bangerz.html

[Shaun]

Grouplove - Spreading Rumours: http://bugsy0123.blogspot.co.uk/2013...g-rumours.html

i'd recommend these guys, they're really uplifting and lovely (but not in a boring way like the vaccines or annoying way like bastille)

[Black Dagger]

I really liked Tongue Tied and Colours, I had no idea of a new album, will check it out

[Shaun]

this was upsetting since his 2011-12 singles were beautiful

Avicii - True: http://bugsy0123.blogspot.co.uk/2013...icii-true.html

[Stu]

I'm surprised you didn't have Avicii penciled as a wimpy cheesestring from the start, to be honest. Like I said before I'd much rather the dance infliction on the charts than the prototypical baby I'm so sorry brand of RnB that was dominating it previously but at least spin some House Mafia or something.

I always find it weird how the sounds in the biggest tracks in the world right now have pretty much all come from a lot of the style of trance that was written off as fad kitch back in it's heyday.

I'd rather hear a gunshot from my only child's bedroom than have to hear Wake Me Up one more time. I know it's pop and I know a lot of this style of music is predicated on simplistic melodies - there is nothing wrong with that - but Avicii does it in such a transparent way that it just takes the piss.

[Stu]

Oh and he's totally going to overdo that "I'm a rich DJ traveling the world having a ****ing great time making people dance. Here's my hotel. Now I'm jumping in the pool. Now time to rock the floor!" style of video too.

[Joelle.]

Oh I thought Dear Boy was one of the best on the album

[Shaun]

Danny Brown - Old: http://bugsy0123.blogspot.co.uk/2013...brown-old.html

[King Gizzard]
