Friday Random Ten CVIII

The “ELL Conference Tomorrow” edition.

Friday Random Ten

  1. Tenhi • Nakin Laulu
  2. Estradasphere • The Unfolding Pause on the Threshold
  3. The Decemberists • The Sporting Life
  4. John Zorn • Family Found (cello)
  5. Sigur Rós • Jósep tekur fimmuna í vinnuna 2
  6. The Gathering • Fear the Sea
  7. Iron & Wine • Woman King
  8. Grails • Fevers
  9. In the Woods • Kairos!
  10. Devin Townsend • Mountain

There is no reason for nostalgia, everything is still happening:

  • The Smedley Log (”Blower’s Daughter” was the best thing about Closer
  • Winter Spring Summer (Ah, “Piggy”: my least favorite of the most important songs from The Downward Spiral
  • Apartment 2024 (with song titles sounding much more upbeat than I’m used to here)
  • Faux Real, Tho (I’m genuinely surprised but equally pleased to see a track from Jon Brion’s woefully underappreciated solo album)
  • The BM Rant (Antony & the Johnsons are so freaking weird, but I can’t stop listening to them ever since Antony was featured on the latest Rufus Wainwright album)
