[D_House]

Rd 1 - ####ed Up - Normal People

 

[Long Ball Larry]

1.x - Unknown Mortal Orchestra - American Guilt

 

[The Dreaded Marco]

R1  T. Hardy Morris - Cheating Life, Living Death

One of my favorite albums from the 2nd half of the year. 

 

[El Floppo]

I've been absolutely buried with work, so won't be fancy with my first pick. which is OBVIOUS and generally good advice all around. 

never fight a man with a perm- IDLES

Brylcreem
Creatine
And a bag of Charlie Sheen
Brylcreem
Creatine
And a bag of kokain
A dulcet man with a dulcet tone
From a dulcet town and a dulcet home
He hates me
I like that

 

[El Floppo]

1.x - Unknown Mortal Orchestra - American Guilt

one of my favorites this year. 

that concept album he/they put out recently is a bit... self-indulgent. reminds me of that parquet courts monastic thingee. at least in terms of hating it.

 

[Ilov80s]

[steelcitysledgehammers]

I hope no one is offended if I jump in on this.

Rd One - Royce da 5'9" - Caterpillar ft. Eminem, King Green

There are other songs released this year that I occasionally obsess over and play repeatedly, but I've been coming back to this one pretty consistently since I first heard it.

[Jaysus]

Round 2 - Jeff Rosenstock - 9/10

 Nine times out of ten I’ll be stoned on the subway
Reading backlit directives of what I should do
Dodging eye contact with anyone who looks my way
Nine times out of ten I’ll be thinking of you 

 

[Long Ball Larry]

2.x - The Revivalists - All My Friends

 

[Northern Voice]

I don't want to **** around, I just want to devastate. 

Round 2 - The Hold Steady - Confusion In The Marketplace

 

[Ilov80s]

Rd 2 Wait in the Car by The Breeders

Solid comeback album

 

[Ilov80s]

Round 1 - Mitski - Why Didn't You Stop Me?

I was shocked to see she wasn't drafted in the mid-year. I know I had 2 other songs by her as ones marke to draft but never did. Love that album.

 

[Northern Voice]

Round 1 - Mitski - Why Didn't You Stop Me?

I was shocked to see she wasn't drafted in the mid-year. I know I had 2 other songs by her as ones marke to draft but never did. Love that album.

The album came out in August, so I think only a couple singles were out at the time of the mid year draft. 

 

[Ilov80s]

The album came out in August, so I think only a couple singles were out at the time of the mid year draft. 

Hmmm...maybe just 1 song was out by then so I guess that does make sense. Time during the year all blurs together. 

 

[mphtrilogy]

Rd 2 AM:

I've enjoyed this song this year, I think her full length record comes out next year:

Jade Bird - Lottery

[JZilla]

Rd 2 Deerhunter - Death In Midsummer

 

[El Floppo]

1- never fight a man with a perm- IDLES

2- boys in the better land- FONTAINES D.C.

it's all about ALL CAPS! and ireland!

And the radio is all about a run away model with a face like sin and a heart like a James Joyce novel

 

[Northern Voice]

I'm trying to attempt to tone down my "look at me, I go to concerts" tendencies, but I think I've seen 8 bands drafted live so far :

 

[steelcitysledgehammers]

Rd Two - The Beths - Not Running

I  this entire album, but if I had to pick one song from it to listen to over and over again it would be this one.

[El Floppo]

1- never fight a man with a perm- IDLES

2- boys in the better land- FONTAINES D.C.

3- I woke up in a ####ed up america- Lonnie Holley

can't keep an artist down. this guy can't really sing, but I respect the #### out of his approach to leading an artist's life. 

 

[The Dreaded Marco]

[steelcitysledgehammers]

Since I've never participated in any of these Song Drafts before I decided to go back through the mid-year Draft to make sure I wasn't posting any duplicates.
Good thing I did, too.  Almost forgot about this one because I had first heard it live last year and don't consider it a 2018 song even though the EP it was released on is from this year (someone else had drafted another tune off this same EP).

Rd Three - King Buffalo - Repeater

These guys opened for another band we went to see last November, but they stole the show with this one song.  We all walked out in complete agreement it was one of the best live songs we'd ever heard.  I've since seen them two more times, just so I can stand in the audience and sway/headbang to this tune.  Their other stuff is good, too, but if I can only have one King Buffalo song, this is the one I want.

[Ilov80s]

Round 2:  Chris Dave and The Drumhedz (feat. Anderson .Paak) - Black Hole

Love anything with Anderson on it but I was a disappointed with his SNL performance. I swear he lip synched both performances.

 

[Northern Voice]

Ah, #### it - @Northern Voice accepting late entries with questionable (and uneducated for the current year) musical tastes?

Of course

 

[Ilov80s]

Been granting wishes like a genie to bad hoes in 2 piece bikinis.

 

[KarmaPolice]

@Ilov80s broke the Janelle Monae seal right away, so I have to go other routes.
