Today’s Random Album of the Day is vand, død & ensomhed from Himmelrum. It’s listed as rock on Rate Your Music but honestly it’s more of a Danish Indie Pop. They self identify as Rock, Ambient, Shoegaze, and synaesthesia. I don’t really see the shoe gaze. I’d still say Indie Pop.
I didn’t really like this album at all. Not to my tastes. One song got weird in a good way. The music is fine, just not my kind of fine.
Rating: 6.0
Favorite Track(s): “Usynlige” got nice and weird. “Nerve” is ok.
Today’s Random Album of the Day is Do a Two Sable from Danielle Howle. This is Singer-Songwriter but also Rock ‘n Roll. This is one of many albums in my collection where I have no idea where it came from. Hence the Random Album of the Day…
I wasn’t expecting much here but for the first part it is a solidly good album. My songs are messed up though. Each song is titled wrong. How exactly does that happen? Did I end up with a bootleg download? fixing this will be annoying.
The album is good at first but I’d not say it’s great in the end. Some songs fall flat for me and some are just bad to me. Sort of a Blues Rock I suppose. Though some songs are practically Country. Which does not work for me at all. Which I suppose is why the more I listened the less I liked it. But then there’d be a good song I liked. So a mixed overall album.

Favorite Track(s): “Feel So Bad” is a great song. “You Came A Knockin'” is great and ok now I recognize her. “Where Were You” brings back the rock and it’s solid. “Dusty” is probably the only slower song that I liked on the album. But I did like it.
Keep or Trash: Trash. Honestly I might have been on the fence about this if it weren’t for the mislabeled songs. That made me realize I didn’t care enough to fix them. Like it’s easier to just discard them and I seemed ok with that once the thought crossed my mind. Especially with me not really liking half the album. Also I was a bit too enthused when we got to the last song and the album was over.
