A song from his next album, Take Care.

Eyes Be Closed by Washed Out

It’s finals time, and this is the song that’s on repeat. A pretty great tune.

Jetlag Blue Version by Vondelpark

Not the song I wanted to post, but the 10mb limit got in the way. Does not matter, this is a gorgeous EP. It’s perfect for those lazy summer days spent under the sun (not quite upon us yet, but soon).

Tiny Spiders by the Soft Moon

This coming to you thanks to Fauxpop. It’s an intense, pounding goth song. What could be better?

Futile Devices by Sufjan Stevens

There are longer songs from this album, but I think this one captures the dour vibe of this album quite well. Some truly lovely words in these two minutes. The album also has cathartic moments, particularly at the end. Worth a listen. 

King Night by Salem

All credit to Pitchfork on this one. Epic.

Angela Surf City by the Walkmen

I’ve long been fan of the Walkmen. Songs like “Wake Up” and “The Rat” are still potent. I had a bit of trouble really getting into Lisbon. The response to it has been so overwhelmingly positive, that I kept giving it listens, figuring I had missed something. I can’t say I’m totally blown away by it, but there are standout songs. This being one of them, naturally. 

Empty Hearth by The Body

Long Flight by Future Islands

This album is excellent. The vocals are varied, and they take some time to appreciate, but it’s very worth it.
