Music Highlights: The Grand Return
It’s Music Monday’s grand return!
Since it’s been officially over a year since my last post, I can’t play that much catch up so I focused my post today on some of the things that caught my eye over the past month or so, but I may sporadically add some of my other favorites of the year in posts going forward.
+ 2 Day Old Sneakers - Cherokee
I absolutely love 2 Day Old Sneakers and it’s been a while since they’ve uploaded new music so it was very fun to see at the end of October it show up on Spotify.
+Lee Earth - Mouth
I’ve never listened to any of Lee Earth and that is changing. I loved how weird and psychedelic both the music and video are. It’s the perfect music to have when you just want to be in a zone, you know?
+NELL - Moon Shower
I love NELL so much that I have dedicated a full post on this blog to them, and they never disappoint when it comes to their releases.
+PLAVE - You Were Beautiful (DAY6 cover)
They always do great on their covers, but PLAVE really hits it out of the park with this one. I don’t think I’ve heard a better cover.
+King Gnu - Glass Window
Not only is the song good, but the music video is fantastic, stop motion animation that’s just weird enough - something that King Gnu. It’s one of their slower ballad-less-rock songs but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t have that great emotional build they just do well.
+Stray Kids - Cover Me
Oh hi. It’s me. The person who is still obsessed with Stray Kids. Cover Me is my favorite off the album, like play on repeat in one sitting.
+DPR IAN - Don’t Go Insane
Sigh. I just love him and his music and his videos and just everything.
+Yorushika - Moonbath
What can I say about Yorushika that hasn’t already been said. They are consistent with music that I can have on repeat. It hasn’t changed in the past 5ish years since I’ve been into them
+VIVIZ - Maniac
A surprise to me (and maybe you?) I’ve been really digging VIVIZ. Maniac has caught me and now I’m here.
+Barshy - Blossom
I love her voice, and the animation in the music video is so pretty.
+OAH! - Break Up to Make Up
High school Jessie would be so into this song.
+ALEPH - Hanging in the Sky
ALEPH is another one of those artists that I’ve never not liked what they’ve produced. They always have music to wind down the day with.
