Freeband Gang - Future Presents F.B.G: The Movie (2013)



I don't even consider this a real post because I'm just pointing you to the datpiff page but this is most of what I've been listening to recently. If you think Turn on the Lights and Tony Montana are masterpieces you'll love this. If you're still complaining about autotune, you might not. It's hard to imagine this kind of music being done better.

Lee Hazlewood - Cowboy in Sweden (1970)



I used to think this was kind of kitschy and weird and not as good as Love and Other Crimes but nope, this is a masterpiece too. Probably better, in fact. One of the best albums I've ever heard. That's all.

Man Is the Bastard - Abundance of Guns (1992)



Yeah yeah yeah everyone knows Man Is the Bastard but this shit doesn't get much attention for some reason. I always liked them most at their most primal with the vocals pushed forward in the mix (Our Earth's Blood, anyone?) and that's exactly what you get with this one. At first I only liked those first really short fucking ragers but now I'm all FOREVER HAS BEGUN 24/7 straight up. This whole thing is the shit.

Lack of Interest - Take Another Step (2006)



This album is better than the more well known Trapped Inside, a powerviolence classic. It doesn't have the crazy awesome vocals of that other album but makes up for it with piercing guitar work and an appropriate production job. Trapped Inside is just a bit too muddy for their style, though still a good album. This one grows on me with each listen, really charming and fun in some way and very impressive for coming 7 years after their classic. Also has one of the illest album covers of all time.
