Just dropping a few albums I've enjoyed over the last week or so.
Ada Yakusheva - Greatest Hits >bard music, folk, qt-core, comfy as fuck Dang I've been loving this album, crazy comfy, lovely singing voice, just real delicate and warm.
Roy Acuff - Great Speckled Bird and Other Favourites >country, bluegrass, gospel Kinda more religious Hank Williams, pretty good lil tunes, short and sweet.
Various Artists - Classic Maritime Music from Smithsonian Folkways >sea shanties, a cappela fuckin 5 stars nigga, this album is the best thing i've heard all year.
After a run with Rodan, Retsin, Sonora Pine, and Ida, O'Neil released her first entirely solo album in 2000. A staple of her songwriting, the album is a very sedating piece about loneliness, birth, and despair. It moves between different kinds of arrangements of varying complexities includingthumb pianos, violins, and guitars, setting the stage for albums to come in some ways, but other ways unique to Peregrine.

Tara Jane O'Neil - In The Sun Lines (2001) (320) >Folk, minimalist, singer-songwriter, ambient, slowcore
Only a year later did she release her sophomore work "In The Sun Lines." This slow, multifaceted work complete with sweet and somber melodies, strings, bells, noise, along with O'Neil's own sweet and somber voice, almost seems to have been written from a dream world far from Peregrine. Being alone in your head seems to be the theme of this album, the first, stellar track, about a person refusing the company of another while they slit their own wrists.

Tara Jane O'Neil - TKO (2002) (320) >Folk, minimalist, singer-songwriter, acoustic, slowcore, ambient, beats
This is a bit of a detour, but not without merit. The tracks with vocal work are the best ones here, love lost and people lost songs. But there are songs that foray into beat making for better or worse.
John Hughes
Tara Jane O'Neil - You Sound, Reflect (2004) (320) >Folk, minimalist, singer-songwriter, ambient, slowcore
This is one of O'Neil's most well known works, and certainly one of her most accessible and technically competent. The songs here are powerful in a way albums previous didn't quite capture. Some of the best guitar playing O'Neil has done. There's a subtle shift in theme from albums previous, almost an acceptance of the despair and loneliness and a desire to move away from it.

Tara Jane O'Neil - To Trace A Raveling (2006) >Folk, minimalist, singer-songwriter, ambient
This was a compilation of two EPs, Tracer and A Raveling, collected exclusively on vinyl. Tracer is very lullaby like and plays out like a single 13 minute song despite being split into three tracks. A Raveling is more typical of O'Neil, but that's nowhere near a bad thing. All Mine Eyes is one of the best tracks she's ever arranged, and the rest of them are nothing to sneeze at. A Raveling ends with a lovely cover of "The Phoenix" by Judee Sill.

Boredoms - Seadrum/House Of Sun (2004) (320) >Rock, sun rock, tropical, energetic, Japanese
In keeping with their previous effort, Vision Creation Newsun, Boredoms continued with their ascension style music with Seadrum/House Of Sun. Seadrum is an energetic romp of drums and pianos and beautiful vocals courtesy of Yoshimi-P. House Of Sun is a collection of guitar playing by Seiichi Yamamoto prior to leaving Boredoms in search of other projects. It sounds like the playing he did on Circle but stretched out for 20 minutes, it's absolutely fantastic.
Bentley Williams
Organised Konfusion - Stress: The Extinction Agenda >Essential East Coast Hip Hop
This is the Warner Music Japan track listing, and track names, for Boredoms' first masterpiece. It takes on a very different flow than the more well known Reprise Records version.
Note: TV Ramones is 3 minutes long, but only a small section of the track has anything going on.

Hey fuckhead OP. Seriously include "sharethread" in the op or subject of the thread. I can't filter a thread like this to top.
