January Roundup Vol. 2

 

Here we are again. Another year, another month, another roundup. I've got high hopes for music in 2021 and hopefully we will see some return of live music and being able to see artists we like live in person. Anyways let's get into Volume 2 of my monthly playlists!




Vilano- Greetings!


Vilano is really cool and a new listen for me. They bring back that mid 2000's pop punk sound that's so addicting to me. Greetings starts off in a similar way to Veara's My B-Side Life then branches off into its own thing. There's some really good drumming in both songs as well which also made me correlate the two. Another song I've been digging is Who We Are (feat. Fronzilla). It's a completely different sound but it's pretty much just a Myka Relocate song with Fronz, which in all honestly is really good.



Juneva- If You're Jezebel, Then I'm Bill Murray


If you've read through enough of my posts, you know how I feel about post-hardcore. Juneva only had 2 EPs, but there's some really good content that has old school influences and I love it. The Magnificent Sycophant is another really nice song and it's much more groovy and even alternative sounding which is a nice switch up.



Cut Both Ways- The Road


Oooh this is some nice heavy stuff that was a catalyst for a playlist I'm working on. Cold is another absolute banger and expect both songs to be on the aforementioned playlist!


Honorable Mentions:

Dude Japan- Horseshoe Crab

Variant- Qualia

Void Of Vision- Kill All Of My Friends


I'm quite disappointed in the lack of posts so far this year, but I've got plenty of ideas for posts. A lot of my music related activities has been playlist building lately. I've been working on a couple as well as beefing up some of the one's I've posted previously. Anywho, keep an eye out here or on the Facebook Page for more content! FB page gets random songs and shared posts a few times a week!

February Roundup Vol. 2

  Shame, shame, shame! I've been quite lazy on the blog front of things lately but I will always try to post my monthly playlists since I'm always looking for new music. FB posts are still at least a few times a week so there's that. Nevertheless, February had a lot of nice music for me, and it'd be a crime to not share some of em. Worst Party Ever- False Teeth This is that perfect sing along type of emo. I've definitely glanced over Worst Party Ever before and I'm glad I finally listened to them. False Teeth is really great but Road Trip is like, wow factor for me. It's vocally reminiscent of another band that I cannot remember but its right there, agh. Regardless WPE will be a frequent listen for me going forward. For The Win- Crash and Burn For The Win is not super unique per se, as you can draw a lot of influences but that's not to say the music is bad. Crash and Burn is a nice feelsy and vocally wholesome song but I cannot help but internally laugh...

The 2020 Roundup!

  Man I don't even know how to start this one. 2020 has been an absolutely wild ride from start to finish. I'm sure it's been that way for everyone and it's a year no one will forget. Perspective and growth have been some keys to move forward with and hopefully the world is a little better on the tail end of everything. I'm not here to go on about all of that though, it's 2020 roundup time! A duality of playlists from the beginning of this blog back in February wrapping up this insane year. Let's get into it and look back at a few key bands and songs that got me to this point writing this post! First though, I've got 2 playlists for everyone today. One of them is a full compilation of each monthly playlist that are viewable on this blog. An "exhaustive collection" I call it, although it's only 234 songs. It would be way too much for me to write about everything I listened to over the year, or even on a monthly basis. Most of my monthly roun...
