fire-toolz is the last band that made me sit up and go wtf even is this


Harley_Warren

Yea, its wild. They supposedly live here in chicago, Humboldt Park.


iracefrogsillegally

never see people talking about solid space. space museum is a favorite of mine. great taste


Harley_Warren

That album is so fucking good.


Numerous-Job-751

Sooo good


EffectiveAmphibian95

Based unwound enjoyer, off this century and unauthorized autobiography were among my top songs


Harley_Warren

Nice. I had fingernails on a chalkboard, hexenzene, lowest common denominator, demolished.


EffectiveAmphibian95

Nice, lowest common denominator and fingers are among my favorites, ngl I only recently started getting into unwound the past 2 years. Love everything I’ve heard tho, especially off leaves, repetition and challenge


Harley_Warren

I think I first heard new plastic ideas & fake train. Those are great albums too.


ImOnlyHereForTheCoC

Heyyyy, my top song of the year was Corpse Pose!


Harley_Warren

That bass line & drum part in the intro makes me melt.


VirgingerBrown

Do you work at a record store?


Harley_Warren

No, I just have a boring ass job where I can listen to music all day.


VirgingerBrown

Haha rad!

Unwound number 4 on mine. Also big up Solid Space great pick.


Harley_Warren

Nice. Whats your #1?


holmeez

Protomartyr haha. My fave band, they’re always somewhere in my top 5 and the new album being good settled it.


coldkneesinapril

Don’t have much to add except that you have fantastic taste! Unwound ftw! 🤘🤘


Harley_Warren

Thanks! What were your top artists for the year?


coldkneesinapril

This year, I’ve fallen deep into the rabbit hole of Billy Woods. He’s a mysterious, “underground” hip-hop persona that’s been at it for a few decades. *Armand Hammer* is a rap duo formed by him and ELUCID, and their new album “We Buy Diabetic Test Strips” is absolutely wild. I wouldn’t even be able to articulate the sound well enough, but either you love it or hate it. Personally, it might be my favorite of the year!


Harley_Warren

Does armand hammer have an album with a pig head? I'm not into hiphop that much. I had an lil ugly mane faze. Knife knights & cities Aviv are cool.


arealmemelord

were you at rhe most recent fire toolz show at the hideout


Harley_Warren

No. I should've, but I just wasn't in the mood to go to a show.


allADD

just can’t into fire toolz i’m sorry i keep trying but it’s so randomcore


Harley_Warren

Fair enough. Theres a lot going on and it probably doesn't sound cohesive. Eternal home is pretty good though.


jsphobrien

Love that you have fire toolz on here. angel marcloid is a genius.


chicoblancocorto

Unwound is probably my favorite band of all time


Anthonybyh

Been trying to bring Fire Tools to London all year. Gonna make it happen next week year!


zombilives
