Random Album of the Day

Today’s Random Album of the Day is ✦✧ from 100%. Yes that’s a symbol heavy title. And as you’d expect this music has an experimental edge at times. Otherwise it’s singer-songwriter indie folk.

I like this EP. I might explore more of their music. It is edgy without losing melody. But as much as I get the edginess of the album artwork – that could be better.

Rating: 8.9

Favorite Track(s): “Birds Bear no message” was melodic. “What do you” was emotive. I wish the sound was better on “Sled” but I think I like it based on what I could hear.

Keep or Trash: Keep. Definitely fits in the niche that is my taste in music.

Today’s Random Album of the Day is a live album, Old Time Relijun performing at Maxwell’s in 2005. It’s a weird live album in that it’s strung together much like a bootleg. I think this was an eMusic release? I don’t recall entirely. But I like Old Time Relijun so alls good.

Old Time Relijun is rock and roll with an element of weirdness. The weirdness is something Arrington de Dionyso brings to all of his work. And I like it. They do a lot of slide guitar and similar sound. Arrington’s voice is dynamic and impressive in what he can do vocally. So yeah, this album is a good one. I definitely should listen to Old Time Relijun more than I do. So of course it’s nice they came up as the Random Album of the Day!

Rating: 8.8 (only a bit low because it’s not a high quality live edit)

Favorite Track: Cold Water

Keep or Trash: Keep. Definitely keep anything from Old Time Relijun.

I could not find this online, but this is their 2001 album which is close to the timing of the live album.

Today’s random album is another Daytrotter Session. This one is with Nicole Atkins. And I liked this so much better than yesterday’s random Daytrotter Session. The first song starts out like a Doors song that is a bit country. It’s a lot rock ‘n roll but they’re in Nashville and I feel that influence. I feel they have a very unique sound. Once again I feel like if I saw Nicole Atkins in a bar I’d be blown away. But listening abstractly I just like it. Very solid.

Rating: 8.0

Once again the Daytrotter Session is not available to stream. But this album is where most of the tracks come from.

Today’s random album is a Daytrotter Session with The Devil’s Horns Kill the Matador. This was a random download from Daytrotter way back when. I’ve been gradually going through and listening to these random downloads anyhow because I’m deleting them if I don’t love them. Just cleaning up my music collection.

In this case, well, I will be deleting this from my collection. I feel like they’d be fun to see live, but I don’t have the urge to listen to this outside of that context. It’s a bit weird which I typically like weird. So I do like bits of it. I’s a bit of a shame I don’t like them more, but then it is ok. And maybe part of me wants to not love them because I want to delete content. It is weird how our subjective desires can influence our tastes.

Rating: 6

I don’t see much of their stuff online and the Daytrotter sessions can be hard to find these days. But here is an EP of theirs. This has two of the songs from the Daytrotter Session.

Sorry for no random album yesterday. I was busy getting the podcast posted. Today’s random album is Wars from xbxrx. This has a bit of a punk flavor, perhaps experimental sound. It uses lots of sudden stops, distorted guitars, and lots of vocal echo. I’m not always a fan of vocal echo but it works well here. This, like zzzz’s album, has a bit of a chaos feel which I love. Overall, I am so pleased these albums are coming up as the random albums of the day. I have not listened to them in some time and I forget how much I like them!

My Rating: 9.0

Today’s random album is Palm Reader from ZZZZ. I always liked this album. I love the horns and the chaos of it. It has an almost jazz feeling with obvious rock overtones. I guess you’d label it as experimental. Which I must admit is a genre I often love. And I do love this.

Today’s random pick is Rhonda Vincent bringing some stylin’ bluegrass with their album The Storm Still Rages. I like bluegrass, but I’m no aficionado. Still this album has some good tunes with a few tunes that fell flat for me.

Every day, or nearly every day anyhow, I will randomly select an album from my collection of digital music, listen to it, and share it here. – Jayne

Today’s pick is an album from the punk band Q and Not U. Honestly, this has probably been in my collection a long time but I don’t know that I listened to it after I bought it. And this album is soooo good. Really good stuff. Not surprising for a band on Dischord, but really nice to re-discover this!
