This has been a disappointing year so far. That's been true in many respects, although it should come as no surprise that I'm mostly (and myopically) referencing my personal quest for new music. Some of my favorite recent bands have released albums this year that, for whatever reason, just didn't quite resonate with me. I'm not going to catalogue them here, as the Roy Pearl/UHM mandate has developed into reinforcing the positive rather than dog-piling on the negative. If there's any good news to any of it, I suspect we're about to experience a rebirth of righteously pissed-off artists from around the world, and their work will echo that explosive emotional state. Or, I suppose it's possible we won't fight back at all. Maybe we'll simply congeal into a sour gelatin of Tay1or Swift-ian avoidance and ooze our way to oblivion. If those are the two options, then allow this tiny gesture of a new faves mix as evidence that the former has already begun.

Your intro lowered my expectations, but I thought this was a great mix. Maybe things aren't so bad, at least musically. Otherwise, sure.
Some other recent ones I liked: The Hold Steady, Dressy Bessy, Proto Idiot, Peter Perrett. Not classics, but pretty good I thought.
Anyway, thanks for continuing to keep track of things, and finding the gems.

My intro was more complaining about the difficulty finding stuff rather than about the stuff I find. Glad you like the mix!
Redd Kross, not Cross
Thanks. I gather you haven't noticed any of the other intentional misspellings in my tracklists. Best offense is defense.
