Møster!'s latest is sublime. If they can get on PA in time it'll probably be album numero uno for me. If not, the honour will probably go to E9. Now I'm in the process of investigating my latest batch of 2015 albums. Was very impressed with Magma's Slaǧ Tanƶ when I heard it for the first time last night. Tonight it's time for the latest from Guapo, Zs and Zombi. Btw, did you ever get to check out Krokofant? Their latest is even better than their debut from last year, IMO. Give them a listen if you haven't, you won't regret it. Oh, and John (Mellotron Storm) did a really good review of their debut, cumpolsory reading, of course.

 Another album to my "to check out" section of my AOTY text file. I don't think I'll be able to listen to them all in time

Very nice list there Audun and quite a few I will be looking into myself. That Møster album is bound to end up on my doorstep at some point.
Great to see Elephant9 at the top. It will most likely be my AOTY unless something crazy happens (I develop a sudden taste for prog metal fx). Just got the new Hooffoot and necromonkey albums and they too are bound to end up at the very top. Show me where it Hertz proves that it's perfectly possible to pay homage to the old Berlin School pioneers without sounding like a complete rip-off and furthermore add some real twang of their own. Hooffoot is vinyl only (although there might be something about an upcoming cd release) and a FLAC download......but it is worth it you guys!! Wow this album is smoking! |

No not yet. I wanted to wait a bit before suggesting them, because a) the PSIKE team is a pretty busy one and b) I wanted to get my hands on it and spin the whole album before going any further. Indo/Raga seems about right to these ears.....or Kraut or fusion. They certainly belong on PA. |

I haven't checked whether Elephant9 is playing Copenhagen anytime soon, but that's because I can't afford the trip nor the ticket. The same goes for Dungen actually, but then again I've seen them a couple of times before. Cool to hear that you've been digging some Danish albums + the Psicomagia one...:and yes you're absolutely right, good thing none of them were released this year. Too many good ones to chose from already. |
