by Galaxie 500

HMz Ridiculously gentle album. This is like rock's equivalent to ASMR. Favorite track: Blue Thunder.

alvarfj So simple and yet so beautifully performed. It's a classic, after all. Favorite track: Decomposing Trees.

DT BR yearning never felt so numb Favorite track: Isn't it a Pity.

heylisten On Fire requires no introduction and demands your undivided attention. However you arrived here, be welcome, rest easy and let the music swell your soul.
Few albums have the power to soothe a broken spirit quite like this one.
Favorite track: When Will You Come Home.

Darcy Possibly my favorite album of the last 30 years. Favorite track: Strange.
