Top albums of 2025
Lambrini Girls - Who Let the Dogs Out

Angry, neurodivergent, and queer, these two have a bone to pick with society...like all of it. Their debut album dropped in January, and pretty much every track kicked my ass. This is the best punk I've heard in ages.

Automatic - Is it now?

There’s not enough groovy music out there. This mixes New wave, no wave, post-punk, disco etc. ESG meets Gary Numan or something. Awesome catchy, dancey.
Automatic - Black Box (Official Music Video)

Top albums of 2025 (in no order):

Wet Leg - moisturizer

It seemed like nobody wanted to take Wet Leg seriously when «Chaise Lounge» blew up in 2022. They have a second album, and it’s even better. Hopefully, they’ll now be seen as a great band and not attractive women with a good song.

Best albums of 2025

Kombynat Robotron-AANK

These German psych rockers dropped a heavy, pummeling modern take on krautrock. Motorikk, but also a bit metal. It’s one great track after another. Getting far too little press.

Another top album of the year, a real grower.
Motorpsycho - Motorpsycho

The short song hark back to their 90s stuff, while the epics are hard hitting krautrock grooves. Showcases everything they do well.

Today’s selection:
Kanaan & Ævestaden - Langt, Langt Vekk
Stoner rock meets Scandinavian folk in this oddly effective pairing. Has some beautiful songs and some pleasing drones, sometimes in the same track.

Today’s selection:
Jimmy Cliff - The Harder They Come

RIP to an absolute legend. I was a reggae hater for a long time. Don’t know why, as I love groove-based music, but I wasn’t experienced enough to hear the nuances. «It all sounds the same.» Glad I came around, and this was the album that did it.
November 26, 2025 at 4:02 PM
Today’ selection:
Supertramp - Breakfast in America

There’s a lot of «uncool» music that is actually pretty dang great. This album is packed with great songs from start to finish. In a year known for the genesis of punk, this still holds up as the opposite: proggy, poppy, falsettos.

Today’s selection:
The War on Drugs - I Don’t Live Here Anymore

There’s snow on the ground and I’m drinking tea, so this feels right this morning. Their poppiest, but that only adds to their mix of Springsteen with a touch of psychedelia sound.

Today’s selection:
Neil Young - Time Fades Away

Happy 80th to the legend!

This is one of his classics I never really got into during my intense fandom in my early 20s. I found it a few months ago cheap on vinyl. What a way to get to know it.

Today’s selection:
Motorpsycho - Lobotomizer

I don’t think anyone is claiming this is among their best work, but their first LP shows a lot of promise. They give a middle finger to convention, playing a range of styles, mostly grunge and metal. It was 1991 after all.

Today’s selection:
Motorpsycho - The Tower

Their 18th album saw them lose a longtime drummer only to find a younger, more explosive one in Tomas Järmyr. Then they release their most progressive and heavy album (at that time). It’s a winner if you love hard rock or prog. Cover by Håkon Gullvåg.

Today’s selection:
Nina Simone at Town Hall

Her songs really came alive on stage where she stretched out and showcased her virtuosic playing. Her voice is so powerful, you can hear her hot breath on the mic. The intimacy brings out new dimensions.

Today’s selection:
Soup - Live Cuts

A little know Norwegian prog/post-rock group from Trondheim. They won’t change your life, but they make some pretty cool stuff. Slow building and dark.

Today’s selection:
Sault - Untitled (Rise)

My wife went to the UK and brought back this stunner of a gift. Their best album, and the best album of 2020. Inspiring, catchy, dancey, poignant, funny. So glad to have in on physical media.

Today’s selection:
Mike Oldfield - Tubular Bells (Boxed version)

A proggy bedroom recording by a insanely young first time musician somehow became a smash hit and helped put Virgin on the map. Even more impressive was that it was made up of one side-long instrumental composition split on two sides.
November 4, 2025 at 12:58 PM
Today’s selection:
Gene Clark - No Other

Massive big budget album that flopped hard, leaving Gene’s career ruined. Forgotten and put of print until a major reevaluation years later. Now seen as a masterpiece of country rock and one of the 70s great albums.

Tonight’s selection:
Motorpsycho and Ståle Størlokken - The Death Defying Unicorn

Probably their most difficult album and a fan favorite. I’ve never cracked this nut, but I’ll chipping at it in hope I’ll get it someday. This is a proper rock opera with an orchestra
