Final Post



This is my final post, so I want to end in on a really personal note and just show all of my favorite albums. These albums made me really into music, and made me start this blog. Whether they're my favorite albums because of the discography, band, album art, or the time in my life I first listened to it, they all mean so much to me.






Bands Bands Bands!!!!





Here's an awesome collection of bands I'm really into that made me want to start this blog. It's amazing how much we can communicate with music- through music, talking about music..... and it's crazy how all of our tastes are totally different, and how some of us have such a similar taste that we can relate to them. Here are some other really neat collections as well....

104.5 Block Party

104.5's block party was this past weekend at the pier in Philly. The turnout was great- maybe 500 people showed up. Catfish and the Bottlemen sadly only played for less than a half hour, as their set was only 5 songs long. The wait between them and Banks was about 50 minutes, but when Banks came on, she dominated. Banks is very synth oriented, and there was a drummer, a keyboard player, and the singer. It's possible she was singing over her own voice on a track in the background, but either way, her songs were captured perfectly on stage. I wasn't very into the artist before she came on, but her performance was amazing and  she played the longest and had the best turn out.

Glass Animals

Glass Animals are an indie rock band, that has become increasingly popular. Their music is very dreamy and pop, and the music videos are incredibly strange. Gooey is very popular, reaching 3 million views on Youtube. Psylla's music video is also worth watching as well. Their sound is similar to that of Alt-J.
