Cub Sport - This is Our Vice. This album is terrible. I don't know where it came from, but this is like watered down The 1975 or something (to the extent The 1975 could even get more watered down). Synth-y pop mediocrity. You don't want to hear this one. Just in case you REALLY do, here is the top track, "Come On Mess Me Up."
Jeff Tweedy - Together at Last. This is the lead singer of Wilco, in case you somehow have been living under a rock and didn't know. That sounds more rude than I meant it to, but you know whaimsayin, right? This album is damn pretty. I clown on Wilco, but I am having a hard time finding anything to fault on this disc - sounds like old school Neil Young took a shot at remaking a bunch of old Wilco and Uncle Tupelo tracks. Very simple, just guitar and voice, but it works nicely. The most listened to track is an old Wilco tune called "Laminated Cat," and has just under half a million streams. Doing OK, but not great.
Birdtalker - Just This. More stuff that I don't recall even finding in the first place, but I apparently stuck it into my new music queue on July 27, 2017. Makes me think of that Civil Wars group that came about a few years ago (and killed it at their ACL big stage performance). Light touch on the music and nice harmonies. The hit from the album is "Heavy," with 14.8 million streams.
