Porridge Radio - Long
Best Track - Long
This album was my introduction to this band and I was very impressed. I love the old-school vibes of this album and the floaty feeling it gives you like you are stuck in a 90’s movie driving scene.
“I don’t know what you’re going through
But it’s a waste of my time
It’s a waste of my time
I don’t know what you’re going through
But it’s wasting my time”
Pillow Queens - In Waiting
Best Track - Gay Girls
If you are looking for a band started by four queer Irish women then look no further because I think they may have cornered the market. This album feels like flannel and bonfires so enjoy it without the disgusting smoky smell when you wash your hair next.
“A kiss so cold I can’t stop crying”
Laura Marling - Song For Our Daughter
Best Track - Held Down
Written to her fictional daughter as a method for giving herself the praise, advice, and honesty that she can’t seem to find when trying to convince herself of something. A simple stripped-down album is a great choice if you like singer-songwriters.
“Woke up in a country who refused to hold your hand
Kept falling for narcissists who insist you call them ‘man’
You work late for a job you hate that’s never fit the plan
Stay low, keep brave”
Phoebe Bridgers - Punisher
Best Track - Kyoto
After a debut album that totally stole my heart she has gone from completely unknown to very popular, I am already mad about how much I am going to have to pay to see her in concert because I would have definitely been able to see her last summer for under twenty bucks.
“Three clicks and I’m home
When I get back I’ll lay around
Then I’ll get up and lay back down
Romanticize a quiet life
There’s no place like my room”
Fenne Lily - Breach
Best Track - Elliot
Bringing his usual mix of humor throughout this is a fun album that is worth a listen if you are unfamiliar with his work. Sometimes his songs just have a way of making you smile and sing along.
“I’m high on two day sheets
Home is where I brush my teeth
I get sick on second best
You get off to God is dead”
