Well, my #1 most anticipated album of the year, Colin Stetson and Sara Neufeld's "Never Were The Way She Was" leaked
It didn't live up to my lofty expectations of "best album I've ever heard"
But I still like it quite a bit, just not on par with his last 2
That man Colin Stetson is just un-fukking-real though. Brings more out of his instrument than any other musician alive. There is a track on this that sounds like he ran his bass-sax through every filter and effect in the studio. But nope, he doesn't use effects or overdubs. Nothing but clever microphone placement and mixing

I was listening to the iTunes stream last night and I liked it. Pre-ordered it anyway.
Kevin Parker JUST dropped another track from the upcoming Tame Impala album on his reddit AMA (only 77 listens on my first play, literally one of the first 100 people to hear this for the first time 
)
EDIT: looks like only a 1:30 minute soundbyte

Hey @sknk80, why is it that you seem to think that your musical taste is the "correct" one? You almost never post in this thread, and half the time when you do its to make some sort of short condescending remark. But your musical taste is blatantly stuck in a very narrow window, you love to big up noisy rock albums and little else. You are a smart guy, but apparently not smart enough to have any self awareness about this. You are like the adult version of this meme:
This thread is meant to discuss a wide variety of music, not just one lane. If you want to school people on music you find to be great, then post shyt more often. Don't just drop in for a monthly hot take on what you think is garbage. News flash: your opinion is no more valid than anyone else's. And when there is a critical consensus of somethings greatness but you don't agree with the critics, perhaps the issue is with yourself and not other people.
About that Metz though, I'm listening now and yeah its good. Gonna give it more attentive spins soons.
