set a goal to see 300 shows this year and fell short. Roughly 225 isn’t too shabby though. As much as I loved sitting on the couch and watching every episode of “Luke Cage” and “Stranger Things” on Netflix, jumping in my car and catching a show dominated my calendar year. I love it, and my appetite for shows only continues to grow. That’s the sorta attitude I’m interested to see take hold in Oklahoma City. As venues like the Tower Theatre and The Jones Assembly prepare to open in 2017, it’s the concert-going public that will make or break the metro area as a music destination. Big shows happen if big crowds show up. The Criterion led a new charge this year. The downtown Oklahoma City venue had an impressive 2016 concert lineup, attracting acts like Sturgill Simpson, Troye Sivan and Glass Animals before their inevitable arena stardom kicks in. (Full disclosure: I became The Criterion’s house photographer after the venue’s opening concert). The Zoo Ampitheatre also secured some big shows this year with packed performances from Twenty
One Pilots, Chris Stapleton and Weezer. Smaller venues like the Blue Door, Opolis, ACM@UCO Performance Lab, Power House Bar and several others continue to field talent that normally skips over Oklahoma. These venues made up a majority of my tally this year. Although popular artists seemingly always sell out their shows in Oklahoma, that’s the case less often than you’d think. Just pick a venue and visit on a weeknight. Sure, I loved seeing Bruce Springsteen at the Chesapeake Energy Arena and Black Sabbath at the BOK Center, but a lot of magic happens between the mega shows. Club venues and listening rooms are where you’ll see artists grind it out before they make it big, and there’s plenty of room for more patrons. 2017 could be an even bigger year for Oklahoma concerts. We’ll have more active venues than we’ve had in years. The question is, are you going to be there on a Saturday night AND a Tuesday night? Thanks for reading, and I hope you enjoy a look at our favorite music, movies and photos from 2016.

Only a few floors remain before construction tops out at the 27-story BOK Park Plaza tower. John Higginbotham, CEO of Bank of Oklahoma’s Oklahoma City operations, said the project is on schedule and his employees are preparing to make the move in late 2017. The
tower, along with two adjoining garages, is being built by J.E. Dunn Construction. “They are completing two floors a month,” Higginbotham said. “They also will be building a two-story ‘lantern' on top, so we’re looking at it topping out later this winter. They are scheduled to deliver the building for interior work in July.” SEE TOWER, 7

TOWER CONTINUED FROM 6 The move to 499 W Sheridan will include 111 employees who already work downtown at BOK Plaza, 201 Robert S Kerr Ave., and 124 employees who work at the Commerce Center building, 9520 N May Ave. in northwest Oklahoma City. “Our employees are gaining excitement with the completion of each floor of the BOK Park Plaza Building as it reshapes the skyline of Oklahoma City,” Higginbotham said. “It reflects the commitment of the BOK to this market.” The company is expected to occupy a total of 100,000 square feet, including the top four floors of the new tower. Another 250,000 square feet is being leased by Devon Energy, which is

headquartered across the street. “Functionality and synergies have been key drivers to the location and proximity of business teams within the building in an effort to increase collaboration and assure the best experience for our customers and employees,” Higginbotham said. The relocation also will involve the move of its banking branch to the ground floor at 499 W Sheridan. Higginbotham said the new branch will be “right-sized” at 3,000 square feet, designed to be a more customized, intimate experience for clients to meet their more complex banking needs. “All of the offerings of electronic banking and deposit-friendly ATM’s have reduced the need for so much square footage,” Higginbotham said. “The new branch will be located on the ground floor with good access to parking for our clients.”

rowing up, I felt like musicals and dance numbers were reserved for cartoon mermaids and meerkats. My favorite television shows often would feature a musical episode, but it always seemed like a lark. Something not to be taken seriously because it worked such a long time ago. Musicals and lavish dance numbers haven’t disappeared over the years. Classic ones featuring Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers found a home on TCM, and the ones that weren’t designed for Broadway landed on the Disney Channel, or they were “Glee.” “La La Land” is a charming reminder of what made musicals a Hollywood staple in the first place. The story is simple enough. After a few

false starts, Sebastian Wilder (Ryan Gosling) meets Mia Dolan (Emma Stone), and they fall in love in a Los Angeles that’s prone to making even a gridlock traffic jam something to sing and dance about (with the help of 30 dancers, 100 extras and at least 60 cars on an exit ramp). However, this love story gets the most remarkable when it gets honest. Damien Chazelle tells stories about people who are driven. Remember in “Whiplash” when
Miles Teller’s hands are bleeding because he’s practicing drums so hard? Well, that intensity continues. The realities of Seb and Mia’s creative pursuits (he’s a jazz enthusiast and she’s a struggling actress) complicate their relationship so that not even a stunning dance number or clever lyrics can make things better right away. “La La Land” isn’t all heavy. The chemistry between Seb and Mia is funny, electric, and at times they’re literally floating through a world that’s more colorful than a grocery store’s candy aisle. It’s sweet and sour. Everything pairs well with the excellent original soundtrack, too. “La La Land” might not lead a surge of new musicals that flaunt a classic, Tinseltowninspired energy but this film has so much going for it. I fell in love during my visit, and I’m looking forward to seeing “La La Land” again.

WASTE OF SPACE
‘Passengers’ is flawed and too fluffy for its own good BY NATHAN POPPE LOOKatOKC Editor
‘PASSENGERS’
Space is an unfriendly place. It’s also cold, infinite and just begging for countless mistakes to happen. You can add “Passengers” to the top of that list. The space vehicle for Jennifer Lawrence and Chris Pratt succeeds only in proving something that you already know. The duo are highly likable. But when they’re given a meteorically flawed story, star power can only go so far. “Passengers” is the cinematic equivalent to a Hallmark card in space. I found it overly sentimental and too breezy. Things go haywire on a routine commercial space flight when mechanical engineer Jim Preston (Pratt) wakes up 90 years early on his way to a new life on a fresh planet called Homestead II. He wanders the Titanic-size

vessel while the other 4,999 passengers continue snoozing. The most interesting thing that happens in the first half hour of the film is when Preston grows a beard. 2009’s excellent “Moon” proved you can do a lot with a single person getting stranded in space. Sadly, “Passengers” isn’t interested in thinking too hard. The pains of loneliness set in after a year of being trapped in space, so Preston wakes up a friend. Partial nudity and gooey romance kicks in before you
can say the name Aurora Lane (Lawrence). Countless shots of Lane’s character made me think the director abandoned the space epic angle to merely make a documentary about Lawrence’s body. “Passengers” feels like it was directed by a teenager even though Oscar nominated director Morten Tyldum (“The Imitation Game”) held the reigns. When drama kicks in, there’s not enough peril to ever make you think these peoples’ lives are hanging in the balance. Dialogue is dumbed down to the point of LEGO instructions being read aloud when characters remind viewers what they’re doing while they’re doing it. There’s no oxygen in space and apparently no subtlety either. “Passengers” is too fluffy for its own good, and it’s the least interesting galactic adventure you’ll see this year.

klahoma might feel like it’s in the middle of nowhere,
but the state’s talent has a knack for making waves in the music industry. Here’s a collection of a few standout
moments in 2016 where Oklahoma musicians stepped into the national spotlight and garnered some well-deserved attention.
EVERYTHING’S COMING UP MILLSAP Superstar Elton John might need help picking up Parker Millsap’s name because he has dropped it so many times this year. Not only did John invite Millsap to perform alongside him at the Apple Music Festival in London, he made the effort to catch the Purcell native on the road. On Oct. 3, John shared the following via Facebook: “In Atlanta, I saw one of the best concerts I have ever seen. Parker Millsap and Sarah Jarosz. Both were astonishingly good. And their respective musicians, too. It restored my faith in music. Bravo to you both.” That’s high praise and it won’t be the last you’ll hear from Millsap or Jarosz, who lent vocals to Millsap’s sophomore effort “The Very Last Day.” Mark your calendars for March 9 when Millsap returns to Oklahoma for a homecoming concert at the Sooner Theatre in Norman.

When John Moreland made his television debut on a sleepy Monday night in February, it wasn’t with a backing band or even a track from his latest album. He waved goodbye to conventionality, sat solo on a chair and performed a quietly devastating rendition of “Break My Heart Sweetly,” a highlight from his 2013 record “In The Throes.” “I should be dealing with my demons / but I’m dodging them instead,” Moreland John Moreland sang before Stephen [PHOTO PROVIDED BY PEARL RACHINSKY] Colbert complimented the raw performance.

SAYING GOODBYE We had to say goodbye to a lot of storied musicians in 2016, but two names rattled Oklahoma music enthusiasts, as well as fans around the world. Lawtonborn songwriter and band leader Leon Russell and the honorary “Okie from Muskogee” Merle Haggard both passed away. Plenty of high-profile goodbyes have been written for the influential artists, but I wanted to share two of my favorite discoveries I learned while researching them. Russell’s “The Homewood Sessions” debuted on Los Angeles public television decades ago, but it belongs on YouTube as a document of what a six-hour live recording session might’ve looked like in the 1970s. Pie and a baby included. Nate Chinen, of The New York Times, made a great observation about the recordings: “The footage shows a side of Mr. Russell that sometimes isn’t emphasized enough. Despite the inherent solitude of a songwriter’s craft, and his long season of obscurity, Mr. Russell was an incredibly gifted collaborator.” As for Haggard, I didn’t realize he was in attendance at Sam Quentin when Johnny Cash played his debut prison concert on Jan. 1, 1958. Haggard was only 20 at the time, and it shaped his future as a legitimate country outlaw. I guess you can file that under one of the most influential concerts of all time.

It only makes sense that the man who followed in Woody Guthrie’s footsteps would land an archive in the same city as his idol. A private collection of more than 6,000 artifacts including lyrics, films, photographs and a lot more from Bob Dylan’s storied career was acquired for roughly $15 million dollars this year. Who footed the bill? The University of Tulsa and the Tulsa-based George Kaiser Family Foundation, and Rolling Stone magazine reported the archives soon will be accessible to Dylan scholars from around the world. “There are a lot of books written about Bob Dylan,” TU President Steadman Upham told Rolling Stone. “But there are going to be a whole lot more based on these materials.”

Public Enemy rapper Chuck D has been in Jabee’s corner for years. It wasn’t until this summer that one of rap’s most famous frontmen shared a few spoken word verses on an album produced right here in Oklahoma. “What you gotta do is get everybody ready for Black Future. You know what to do you know what to say,” said Chuck D in the intro to “Monument.” “I know you can spit and I know you can bring everybody together.” A lot of people in Oklahoma believe in Jabee so it’s reassuring to see a heavyweight in the hip-hop world do more than take notice via Twitter.

elcome to the end of the reel. Now’s the time where a lot of serious movies emerge and terms like “critically acclaimed” and “tour de force performance” get thrown around like compliments on a new haircut. However, this year was special and offered an array of diverse, excellent stories. I reached out to several members of the Oklahoma film community to see what their favorite movies were. It’s a great collection, and it spans a variety of tastes. These films have exited the theater but not our thoughts. Isn’t that what the best movies do?

beauty. A small crew, which can be seen prepping between takes, carefully choreographs each song as if it were its own movie. Director Andrew Dominik (“The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford,” “Killing Them Softly”) also captures interviews with Cave and his wife that feel fleeting and fragile. It’s as if no amount of time or healing could remedy the difficulty of measuring loss. Think of grief as a painting. It wouldn’t be broadly appealing or a simple work of art. Here, it’s a series of abstract scribbles that jaggedly fit together into something equally haunting and beautiful. — Nathan Poppe

Screened for one night only in a handful of theaters throughout the state, “One More Time With Feeling” was a raw and rare movie event. The Nick Cave concert documentary is as dark as the musician’s trademark suits and unyielding as his piercing eyes. Shot in 3-D and predominately in black and white, the movie intimately details both the recording process of his new album “Skeleton Tree” and the recent loss of his son Arthur, who fell off a cliff in 2015 under
the influence of LSD. In the film, Cave can be heard in a voice-over saying: “What happens when an event occurs that is so catastrophic that you just change. You change from the known person to an unknown person. So that when you look at yourself in the mirror, you recognize the person that you were but the person inside the skin is a different person.” “One More Time With Feeling” is a well-crafted documentary of sadness and

‘HELL OR HIGH WATER’ Directed by David Mackenzie Jeff Bridges has never been better than he is in “Hell or High Water” as a crusty Texas Ranger on the verge of retirement, given to good-natured needling at his Hispanic/American Indian partner, Alberto Parker (a superbly dry Gil Birmingham), as they hunt for a pair of bank-robbing brothers all over the flat and bleak western plains of the Lone Star state. Chris Pine and especially a wild-eyed Ben Foster are also spot-on as a divorced father and his ex-con older brother, respectively, who are hitting small-town branches of the bank that’s about to foreclose on their family’s ranch. This modern-day Western from Scottish director David Mackenzie and screenwriter Taylor Sheridan (“Sicario,” “Sons of Anarchy”) is bound to be a watch-again classic, mainly for the fascinating — and sometimes humorous — relationships between the two rangers, and the two brothers. But it’s a mystery that top-billed Bridges is being classified as a “supporting” actor in this Cannes favorite, since he steals the movie. It’s the best thinking-person’s action film I’ve seen in years. — Gene Triplett, Longtime film critic

The film is broken into three chapters at three stages of Chiron’s life: childhood, high school and adulthood. Many coming-of-age tales seem to bend over backwards to keep their story relatable by keeping details vague and broad. “Moonlight” takes the opposite approach, and manages to find relatability through specificity by tapping into universal struggles through the example of one specific case. We may not have all shared this life experience, but we all struggle with finding our own identity, and general insecurities about how others view us. This film cannot be talked about without mentioning the remarkable performances from all involved. Mahershala Ali, Ashton Sanders, Alex R.

‘CHEVALIER’ Directed by Athina Rachel Tsangari On a luxury yacht somewhere in the Aegean Sea, six friends compete to determine which one of them is “the best at everything.” The winner is entitled to the coveted Chevalier ring and an exulted sense of superiority. For the duration of what should have been a leisurely fishing vacation, the men initiate an increasingly Byzantine series of challenges in which every aspect of appearance, health and behavior — from cholesterol level, to culinary knowledge, to dancing ability — is assessed and graded. As the competition escalates, friendships are challenged, secret alliances are forged, and numerous embarrassing secrets are brought to light. Directed by Athena Rachel Tsangari (“Attenberg”), “Chevalier” is a clear-eyed, timely satire of contemporary bourgeois masculinity and the data-driven cult of self-improvement. While the film’s high-concept, Bunuelian premise and gleefully absurd sense of humor find parallels in the work of of fellow Greek auteur, Yorgos Lanthimos (“Dogtooth,” “The Lobster”), “Chevalier” strikes a unique and impressive balance between broad comic satire and nuanced characterization. With elegant formal and stylistic economy, Tsangari deftly illuminates a hidden world of subtle slights, simmering resentments and barely-concealed insecurities that is unexpectedly profound and profoundly hilarious. “Chevalier” is available on Netflix. — Lisa K. Broad, OKCMOA interim assistant curator of film and video
‘JACKIE’ Directed by Pablo Larrain “Jackie” is a mesmerizing masterpiece of biopic risktaking. Beautifully rendered, it would fit on the walls of an art gallery as naturally as it would the screens of a cineplex, and is as penetrating as a Vulcan mind meld. Natalie Portman is transcendent (or, more accurately, transcendental) in a performance far more transformative than the mere affectations of look and voice.

‘CEMETERY OF SPLENDOR’ Directed by Apichatpong Weerasethakul Set in a remote corner of northeastern Thailand, “Cemetery of Splendor” focuses on the staff and patients of a makeshift hospital housing soldiers with a mysterious sleeping sickness. As the ailing abruptly slip in and out of consciousness, the narrative freely follows suit, moving between mundane observation, the fantastical appearance of ancient princesses, in disguise, and the sudden, spectacular presence of a giant floating amoeba. Waking life and dream, in other words, lose their special distinctiveness in “Cemetery of Splendor,” a surreal modern masterwork of slow cinema directed by Apichatpong Weerasethakul (or “Joe,” as he is affectionately — and mercifully — known to Americans). “Cemetery of Splendor’s” loose storytelling structure and choice of subject lends itself perfectly to the filmmaker’s signature combination of ethnograph, kitsch, Eastern metaphysics, and Thai myth — not to mention to the ultramodern and centuries-old spaces that coexist in the film, and together define one aspect of life in 21st century Southeast Asia. Contemporary reality is more darkly present in Apichatpong’s subtle references to his country’s 2014 military coup, a rare presentation of the political within the master’s work. “Cemetery of Splendor” opened at the Oklahoma City Museum of Art in March and is currently available on Netflix. — Michael J.

‘ARRIVAL’ Directed by Denis Villeneuve “Arrival” spends most of its running time on a problem that’s glossed over in many science fiction films — how exactly is humanity going to communicate with alien races who have biology, history and culture completely different from our own? Amy Adams gives one of the best performances of her career as Louise Banks, a linguist called in to facilitate communication with extraterrestrials arriving on Earth. She’s recruited by Col. Weber (Forest Whitaker), who remembers her for some previous topsecret translation work. Once she arrives, she’s paired with quantum physicist Ian Donnelly (Jeremy Renner) to somehow build rapport with these aliens, housed on one of 12 giant pod-like ships that have appeared in disparate locations around the world. The script, by Norman native Eric Heisserer, is based on the short story “Story of Your Life” by Ted Chiang. Denis Villeneuve (“Prisoners,” “Sicario”) directs with a thoughtfully paced manner that allows viewers to ponder, and attempt to code the film’s

understand those who communicate differently? Like some of the best science-fiction, “Arrival” may leave you with as many questions as answers. — Matthew Price, For LOOKatOKC

‘KUBO AND THE TWO STRINGS’ Directed by Travis Knight

‘SING STREET’ Directed by John Carney When is the last time you completely embarrassed yourself? Not the last time you were nervous, or slipped, or made a mistake. When is the last time you wanted something so badly, you blocked out everything else and just went for it? It’s probably been a while. And, that’s what makes the movie “Sing Street” so powerful. “Sing Street” is the latest musical from Irish director John Carney. It tells the story of a bullied teenager who starts a band to get a girl and finds himself along the way. Carney, who also directed “Begin Again” and the Oscar winner “Once,” is a master at grounding the musical genre in realism. While other musicals ask you to suspend your disbelief to watch characters dance on air, Carney invites you into the practice room to witness normal people raging and flailing until they discover their own voice. When they do, it’s pure magic. This was a great year at the movies for intense dramas and dazzling science fiction. But “Sing Street” was the only film that nestled its way into my heart and stayed there, reminding me what it was like to be young, fearless and in love. — Lance McDaniel, DeadCenter artistic director and filmmaker

“If you must blink, do it now,” the young one-eyed Japanese hero Kubo (voice of Art Parkinson, “Game of Thrones”) cautions viewers in the opening moments of “Kubo and the Two Strings.” Audiences will be hard-pressed to find even an instant to close their eyes as the expansive animated fable takes them on an epic quest involving a towering swordcrowned skeleton, a sea of giant hypnotic eyes and the creepiest identical twins since the little girls in “The Shining.” In an impressive year for animated filmmaking — every major studio released at least one animated effort, and Disney dropped the excellent offerings “Zootopia,” “Moana” and Pixar’s “Finding Dory” into theaters — the latest quirky adventure from Laika Entertainment introduced some of the most indelible cinematic images of 2016, from a massive ship crafted entirely of autumn leaves to an endearing half-man, half-beetle warrior. Over the past decade, Laika
Beetle, voiced by Matthew McConnaghey, Kubo, voiced by Art Parkinson and Monkey, voiced by Charlize Theron in a scene from “Kubo and the Two Strings.” [PHOTO PROVIDED BY LAIKA STUDIOS, FOCUS FEATURES/AP] has earned a reputation for doing things its own way: Not only is the Oregon boutique studio keeping the art of stop-motion moviemaking alive and pushing it forward with digital technology, but it also trusts children to handle the real-world darkness inherent in its fantastical tales. Many animated movies delve into subjects like family, grief and identity, but everywhere that most familyfriendly movies zig, “Kubo and the Two Strings” manages to zag. First-time director Travis Knight,
Laika’s CEO, channels the likes of animation master Hayao Miyazaki, epic filmmaker David Lean and movie monster maker Ray Harryhausen in weaving the yarn of the quietly determined Kubo and his flight from his cold-blooded grandfather the Moon King (Ralph Fiennes). With each strum of his guitar-like shamisen, Kubo’s musical adventures serve as potent reminders of the power of memories, magic and storytelling. — Brandy McDonnell, For LOOKatOKC
‘THE EDGE OF SEVENTEEN’ Directed by Kelly Fremon Craig

Few teen movies are made that actually capture what it’s like to be a teenager. This is often times because the people who are writing, creating, funding the films are completely out of touch with the real world. “The Edge of Seventeen” is a perfect example of a classic teen movie feel, but it’s made for modern day teenagers. This is why it is at the very top of my list for films of 2016. Writer and director Kelly Fremon Craig and crew did a fantastic job at casting Hailee Seinfeld (“True Grit,” “Pitch Perfect 2”) who plays Nadine and is trying to get through life after a tragedy. The film tackles real problems today and doesn’t hold back any punches. Literally none. This gives the audience a result of several raw moments where you’re able to feel for the characters in the film. Forget the clicks or cliches that ran high school. This film tells a story that feels genuine to its core. — Kyle Roberts, Okie filmmaker

BEST ALBUMS OF 2016
STATE’S MUSIC COMMUNITY WEIGHS IN ON FAVORITE LOCAL AND NATIONAL OFFERINGS OF THE YEAR Listing the best albums of the year reminds me of grocery shopping. No matter how much time I spend on a detailed list, there’s no way I’ll wind up including everything. That’s why I enlisted members of the Oklahoma music community to help build a collection of our favorite recordings released in 2016. My co-workers, an accomplished singer-songwriter, a graphic designer, a DJ, a drummer for the Flaming Lips and many more music enthusiasts shared albums that impacted their 2016. Here’s an abridged version of what we thought the year had to offer. — Nathan Poppe
PARKER MILLSAP, “THE VERY LAST DAY” (his Okrahoma Records with distribution through Thirty Tigers) It’s doubtful that many music lovers entered 2016 “Pining” for an album that drapes post-apocalyptic themes over its preternaturally advanced songcraft and striking sonic versatility. It’s even more impressive that Parker Millsap managed to not only give us the 11-track collection we never knew we wanted, but also to provide us with the type of album this weird and wild 2016 made sure we needed. — Brandy McDonnell, For LOOKatOKC BLAKE LUSK, “TO BE HUMAN” (Tape Gun Records) You know that thing where you fixate on a word so long that it loses all meaning? Oklahoma City musician Blake Lusk’s 2016 Tape Gun Records release, “To Be Human,” is like the opposite of that. It’s a bizarre mix of psych, garage, electronic, noise rock. It’s at once deceptively simple and uniquely complicated. It is exploratory and not for everyone, but if it grabs you up front, it will earn intent, repeat listens. — Becky Carman, Okie musician and writer CHERRY DEATH, “SACCHARINE” (Self-released) Oklahoma City collective Cherry Death has always played songs bigger than the basement shows they are usually heard from. With “Saccharine” — the band’s third full-length effort — figurehead Tim Buchanan finally sounds content to let them breathe, discarding the camouflage of distortion for an airy, gorgeous turn that flickers with bonfire warmth. — Joshua Boydston, Okie graphic designer and NMF organizer SEE ALBUMS, PAGE 24 PAGE 22

ALBUMS, CONTINUED FROM PAGE 22 WINK BURCHAM, “CLEVELAND SUMMER NIGHTS” (Horton Records) There’s no exact recipe to the Tulsa Sound, and it’s rare for any given two artists to serve it the same way. After all, it’s a mixture of blues, folk, Boogie Woogie and rock traditions. Maybe it’s more of a state of mind? If so, Wink Burcham and company were on the same page when they captured the warm, mostly laid-back tracks on “Cleveland Summer Nights.” The album is a twangy, straightforward exploration of honky tonks, restless souls and what it means to be home. — Nathan Poppe BRONCHO, “DOUBLE VANITY (Dine Alone Records) BRONCHO’s latest record “Double Vanity” is slower and murkier than its previous offerings, and the songs never build to the full climax like before. Instead the band burns and gyrates along at a pace that slowly makes you redefine what the release you thought you remember feels like. Its magic is making you realize BRONCHO isn’t necessarily from an alternate reality, but perhaps you are. Or perhaps both are real, and the only falsehood is the otherness you’re projecting on two seemingly conflicting worlds. — Beau Jennings, Okie musician and filmmaker JABEE, “BLACK FUTURE” (Grand Union Media) Jabee never claimed to the best rapper. He never claimed that he spoke for everyone. But his passions, his pain, and his power are self-evident on “Black Future,” and with production value at its very best, this album stands tall among the local selection as being one of the best of the year, but I’d happily put it up against national artists any day. — Grace Gordon, Oklahoma Rock Show co-host
A TRIBE CALLED QUEST, “WE GOT IT FROM HERE… THANK YOU 4 YOUR SERVICE” (Epic Records) We should ignore old rappers as a rule. Too many have dried up whatever wells of knowledge or style they drew from in the first place, and even more succumb to chasing trends that long ago escaped them. But A Tribe Called Quest prove much more than just the exception with “We Got It From Here…” because they prove that they were doing it right all along. — Matt Carney WILLIAM TYLER, “MODERN COUNTRY” (Merge Records) Earlier this year, I drove nearly 12 hours in one day from Iowa to Oklahoma. This instrumental record sounds like that trip felt; warm and hazy. “Modern Counry” is also nimble and transportive. The record is hinged on William Tyler’s spirited guitar playing and his bandmates’ fluid flourishes. When I close my eyes during a listen, I’m traveling shotgun in a tour SEE ALBUMS, PAGE 26 PAGE 24

Hiding in the liner notes of “Modern Country” is a quote from poet Frank Stanford that reads, “All of this is magic against death.” I’m not sure if Tyler set out to create something so uplifting, but that quote and such a thoughtful album made me feel alive. Sometimes, you just have to let the music do the talking. — Nathan Poppe MITSKI, “PUBERTY 2” (Dead Oceans) As a female musician, I understand the pressure to seem collected and confident. Music writers have a heyday admonishing “sad girls” and “overly-dramatic” women artists (that is, unless they are being depressed while also being sexy and it happens to be appealing in some distorted, antiquated way). I’m glad that Mitski doesn’t fall in line with those rules. She flagrantly released all her inner joys and demons. Her voice is clear and direct. Her words are epodic and peculiar. This is Neutral Milk Hotel, Leonard Cohen, Patti Smith and Cocteau Twins all wrapped up into one package. — Samantha Crain, Okie singer-songwriter KANYE WEST, “THE LIFE OF PABLO” (Def Jam/GOOD Music) Kanye West has a history of creating controversy and challenging music. That’s a dangerous combination for those of us who need to love an artist as a celebrity before we allow ourselves to take their music into consideration. I happen to share the widely unpopular opinion of enjoying Kanye as a villainous entertainer (provided we never elect him president) who gets to say what he wants in public and then smash us over the head with an album we’re not ready for. And West’s latest release, “The Life of Pablo,” has done just that. — Nic Ley, Flaming Lips drummer MIRANDA LAMBERT, “THE WEIGHT OF THESE WINGS” (Vanner Records/RCA Records Nashville) AND BLAKE SHELTON “IF I’M HONEST” (Warner Bros.) The biggest divorce to hit country music since Tammy Wynette spelled hers out managed to produce two albums that told the two sides of the story in totally different yet completely engaging ways. Miranda Lambert created one of the best albums of the year with her two-disc set “The Weight of These Wings.” If there’s a “most improved” category, Shelton wins it this year. Although Lambert’s weighty double album likely satisfied those searching for genuine emotion and obvious real-life references, Shelton’s “If I’m Honest” probably came up short for many looking for the same thing on his 10th album, which he labeled the most personal and reflective of his career. With all eyes on them, both Lambert and Shelton managed to do what they do best, only better, with more honesty, vulnerability and maturity. It would seem that superstars get stronger like the rest of us, because the fires of life forge them that way. — Brandy McDonnell PAGE 26

It’s a feeling that pairs well with turning up the volume knob on your car stereo and steadily accelerating without realizing you’re driving over the speed limit. Texas punk outfit A Giant Dog steers that desire and transfixes it on the gruesome, weird and fun-loving side of rock ‘n’ roll. The band’s 2016 album “Pile” celebrates the excess of the genre with a demented, dimly lit sense of humor and plenty of glammy pop vibes. A Giant Dog landed in Oklahoma twice last year and don’t make the same mistake three times in a row by missing this incredible rock talent.
