Not sure how he does it, but Bill Callahan has consistently put out beautiful music.
The new album of his is no exception to that trend.
Really digging the heck out of this new Cornershop album.

Solid/accurate review on Pitchfork too:

Listening to a new Radiohead album is always a very special experience for me.
It marks a moment in time that will then grow throughout my days.
With repeated listens, it's like the sudden smell of something loved that has been lost and now remembered again.
An immediate, sentimental journey - sunlight through a window, the sound of a friend's voice, a word, a meal, a wish.
And this new album is now here upon us.
So I'm just letting it wash over and coat me in new and soon-to-be old memories.

Haven't done this series in awhile (since I basically started it), but I was listening to Stina Nordenstam's "This Is" album today and remembered how much I love this particular song.
Sounds a bit like Brian Eno "Here Come The Warm Jets" era.
Would love to see this one in a film.
Enjoy.
So now that I'm in Chicago, I'm super interested in discovering what's happening here in the music scene these days.
One of the first bands I've come across is the Smith Westerns who've just released their newest album Dye It Blonde on Fat Possum Records.
Liking what I'm hearing so far from the youngsters in this town.
Have a great weekend everyone.
Go Packers!!!
The new Adventure album will drop March 22nd and the whole thing kills it.
