These are all the albums, EPs, demos, soundtracks,
compositions, compilations, etc that I listened to in the month of May 2012. I
had a weird system of coming up with what I would listen to next so there is
alot of stuff in there I had never been exposed to before. Probably the
most classical, opera, and classic country I've ever listened to in one month's
time. And a K-Pop girl group.
At the end are my notes and a list of the live music performances I saw in May.

NOTES:
-
UFO’s new album is entirely unnecessary…the new
Killing Joke is almost there
-
Englebert Humperdinck and then The Pharcyde?
Genius.
-
Ian Anderson’s new album sounds like it could be
Jethro Tull in 1974. Awesome.
-
I expected The Feelers to be cool because of
their name but no, they suck.
-
I like “Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge” A LOT more
now than I did when I thought I hated it in high school
-
Straight up, I listened to the soundtracks to
the 60’s TV versions of “Sherlock Holmes” AND “Star Trek”and the soundtrack to “Gone
With The Wind”; what’s worse is that I can’t say it was time wasted
-
The soundtrack to “Riverdance” was a bit of time
wasted.
-
Goddamn The Geto Boys are so dope
-
I <3 Snapcase
-
Nicki Minaj’s album isn’t nearly as bad as I
expected it was going to be.
-
How people back in the day didn’t realize that
Liberace was gay is beyond me
-
Listening to Joell Ortiz’s album confirms for me
that I just don’t really like The Diplomats/Dipset or any of their individual
output. I mean as far as I’ve heard its just not my jive.
-
“Age Of Worry” by Billy Walker is my favorite
song from this playlist
-
Affiliation Red’s EP “Ideologies” is the worst
thing I have heard from 2012 and I doubt anything else will be released this
year that will be worse. Just absolutely terrible.
-
Everybody check out HOLLOW, the homie TJ Edge’s
new band. They’re dope. http://hollowmmxii.bandcamp.com/album/mmxii
-
That Karl Munchinger Christmas opera was soooo
long and tedious, WHY did I put myself through that?
-
R.I.P. Doc Watson
I also saw Desperate
Living, Stopping Power, Flex, and The Coltranes perform live. One show all
month. That’s ridiculous.
