Top 11 Records - VoS-related
First of, I am the guy who cannot count, second, I write too much stuff so I cannot cut, third, I think 11 players are a team, so here is my team for 2024 (in alphabetical order)!
Buñuel - Mansuetude Quite the opposite of its title, this record is not a meagre thing, but very opulent, when it comes to musical ideas in Noise-minor.
Top 5 records - Non-VoS-related
Crippling Alcoholism - With Love from a Padded Room If you love storytelling, darkness, Blackened Folk and one of the few voices that come close to Mark Lanegan’s (RIP) - this band should be one of your go-to’s!
