Brand New

Daisy

Vices
Sink
Sowing Season (Yeah)
You Won't Know
The Quiet Things That No One Ever Knows

Daisy is definitely an acquired taste, but once you get into it it's a phenomenal album. I didn't like it for 3 years, went back to it about 6 months ago, and absolutely loved it. It doesn't beat The Devil and God though.

My problem, I suppose, is that I went backwards. I had Deja Entendu from day dot, then just neglected to keep up, so I got Daisy before Devil/God. Anyway, both brilliant. If they don't tour soon I'm going to have to go to them!

Not really an AC fan but the song titles are epic and belong in this thread, the music not so much.

[HARKER]

Fave album lately:
Hawkwind-Astounding sounds Amazing music(1976)

Quite an album and so freshly produced.

Surprised it gained any traction in 1976 as it sounds more post-punk than pre-punk to me, even now.

 

[mianfei]

Hawkwind: Quark Strangeness & Charm

Surprised to see that recording known to someone in Australia. I have not heard it myself ever, nor is it often listed as a major part of the rock canon, but it was on Joe S. Harrington’s Top 100 Albums, a list I respect for what it showed about the music accessible to someone in suburban Melbourne where people could basically not listen to anything outside of commercial radio.
