Pig in shit

new Bowie (unless you were in isolation)
new Besnard Lakes (good)
new Eleanor Freidberger (her best)
new White Denim (70s done with originality, melody, depth and without bellbottom cliches)
new Wussy (still getting better)
new Iggy (an Iggy statement if there ever was one)
new Suede (2nd best ever)
new Mould (some choice ones)
new Autolux (not sure yet)
new TacoCat (like cross of Pavement>Sleater-Kinney>Best Coast. best entry point: I Love Seattle)

Didn't know Autolux have a new one out. Now I have to check that out.

Stuff from the first quarter of 16 that I liked:

Bowie, of course
Heron Oblivion
The Prettiots
Hinds
The Jezabels
Bob Mould
Underworld
Car Seat Headrest
Baroness
Wild Nothing
Diiv

The new Wendy James album is surprisingly decent.

I LOVE that Heron Oblivion record - my favorite so far this year.

Brian Fallon - Painkillers
Flowers - Everybody's
Margo Price - Farmer's Daughter
Mind Spiders - Prosthesis
Ty Segall - Emotional Mugger

The new Autolux is a grower - give it some time and it'll definitely sink in.
