my favorite albums

Ants from Up There - Black Country, New Road

A staple in my “falling to my knees at BU Beach” playlist. So deeply tragic, and additional listens only reveal devastating layers of anguish and remorse. Perfect album for bleak winter days.

Favorite Songs: Chaos Space Machine, Good Will Hunting, Basketball Shoes

Being Funny in a Foreign Language - The 1975

My favorite band finally learned how to make an album that’s under an hour long, dreams do come true! Absolutely gorgeous set of songs here, and the mere existence of “About You” automatically catapults this record into all-timer status. Makes my heart full, really.

Favorite Songs: Looking For Somebody (To Love), Oh Caroline, About You

Dawn FM - The Weeknd

Not fair of The Weeknd to follow up what I consider a modern classic (After Hours, mon amour) with yet another modern classic, one that might be an improvement on its predecessor? Unreal.

Favorite Songs: Gasoline, Out of Time, Less Than Zero
