Cliffy Biro Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 mainly because im too lazy to go looking for new music most of the time Then this is the thread for you, sir! It is, ive got some of the suggestions in here in my watch later list so i dont forget. Havent got any cool obscure lists mainly because im too lazy to go looking for new music most of the time but ive quite enjoyed AM and Trouble Will Find Me by The National. Its not about "Cool Obscure Lists", it is simply about what you liked from this year My comment wasnt a dig btw apologies if its been taken that way, just everyone was posting their fancy lists and i only had 2 fairly well knowns Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisp65 Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 Anytime I'm in the office and accidentally mention a band or an album in conversation that hasn't been in the Tesco Top Ten I have to qualify it by saying all music is good music and I am not the taste police. Same goes for books, if it ain't on the 2 for 3 deal, apparently you're a ghey intellectual. In fact, I actually am the ghey intellectual taste police, and one day, one day, they are all getting a proper old fashioned police kicking. Poor me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyblade Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 If you want a list that will cost you hours of your life and possibly half your savings, then go no further than The Quietus Fast becoming one of my favourite websites. One of the best lists I've seen. Some really great picks like Omar Souleyman, Fire Orchestra! and The Knife. Got kinda predictable near the end though which is a shame. Bookmarked.

Jon Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 I'm getting old and too busy with work and family. I've hardly heard of any of those. Welcome to my world. Yep. This thread is like "who can outdo who with their lists of obscure cds". 3rded, 4thd, whatever. I seem to make do with listening mainly to 6 Music these days. Getting a loads of CDs bought me for Xmas, incl Agnes Obel, Scroobious Pip, Au Revoir Simone, etc I have bought 1 or 2 albums this year, and most notable amongst them would be Public Service Broadcasting. Bought Boards of Canada too, which I though was OK, but nothing special. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this was the 60s and I was a 50 year old man looking at a list of albums, I'd probably say the same (only with vinyl, not CDs) Edited December 12, 2013 by CarewsEyebrowDesigner 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seat68 Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 Hmmm, not trying to be obscure with the cheaterslicks, my world is rockabilly and country, cheaterslicks arent that obscure and one of my other favourites is Blake Sheltons and that isnt obscure in the slightest.

Except Awake is better I'd actually agree that on the face of it....but Scenes has more personal significance to me that Awake does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
