The Wilderness (Explosions in the Sky)  

Trying not to get my hopes up about this - but their description of it being "an album where shoegaze, electronic experimentation, punk damaged dub, noise, and ambient folk somehow coexist without a hint of contrivance” definitely has me interested.

-it’s probably not going to be good…but one can still hope maybe…right? 


Tim Hecker

Bottomless Pit (Death Grips)

PLEASE THIS YEAR?!?
Tool 
I know I've been saying this for the last three years...but I really think this is going to be the year this year!!! 

I'm sure there'll also be a ton of great jazz records and modern classical/avant-garde stuff that drops this year - but I haven't heard hype for those records because generally those artists don't care to hype their stuff.

Looking forward to hearing what 2016 has in store for us.

Much love,

<3
