Drop 2020

Just for a moment, let’s put aside all the shit that 2020 has brought to us, and focus on a couple of good things instead, although I believe it’s been hard for many of you.

To hell with 2013

One more time we’re heading to the end of a year. I haven’t write any blog posts for a year and now I’m doing it because I want to make some kind of retrospective to 2013 – in terms of music albums and concerts.

Few times I was thinking about writing some “useful” blog posts – but let’s say I was pretty busy all the time and this was always low priority – and I believe this will  stay like that, at least until I don’t completely finish some faculty duties, and I hope this will be during the next year.

Anyhow, let’s talk about music. There’s no order at all.

Top music records (released in 2013):
Thee Oh Sees – Floating Coffin
Mark Kozelek & Jimmy Lavalle – Perils From the Sea
Bill Callahan – Dream River
Ludovico Einaudi – In a Time Lapse
Deafheaven – Sunbather
Colin Stetson – New History Warfare Vol. 3: To See More Light
Mogwai – Les Revenants (soundtrack)
Fuck Buttons – Slow Focus
Crusades – Perhaps You Deliver this Judgment with Greater Fear than I Receive It
The Men – New Moon
Off With Their Heads – Home
The Bronx – The Bronx IV
BoySetsFire – While a Nation Sleeps…
