A weekly recap conversation with the Album Consumers: a group of friends staying sane during this weird time through collective musical exploration and discussion. Each day a member of the group selects an album, and the rest of the group discusses the shared experience.
The Album Consumers are back again three strong, and have a lot of ground to try to cover this week. When you have such a plethora of options to choose from, how do you keep things organized? This week Greg, Scott, and Chris go deep on four very different records, and then quick digest and dissect a group of LPs so dynamic they might make your head spin.
This week's Album Consumers album discussion lineup includes (but is not limited to):
Dropper - Don't Talk To Me
My Bloody Valentine - Loveless
Moses Sumney - Aromanticism
Buffalo Nichols - s/t
Arab Strap - As Days Get Dark
Deftones - White Pony
The Capes - Hello
Foreigner - 4
Steely Dan - Aja
Ludacris - Word of Mouf
Big Pun - Capital Punishment

Album Consumers #26 - Bob & Weave
Three minus One equals...fun! Scott was forced to take a PTO day from the podcast, so Greg and Chris decided to use the time to take a look back at Album Consumers history. Specifically, the pair took a moment to review the 60+ albums they have each presented to the group and each came up with a list of their 10 favorites. Which of their own records did they enjoy the most? Which have they developed a greater affinity for through this exercise, and which dropped off their respective radars? It's a great Album Consumers version of TL:DR, and a good starting point for anyone just hopping on board now.

This week Greg, Scott, and Chris weigh in on the merits of Afrobeat, late 70s/early 80s guitar rock, and the pros and cons of certain singers and vocal stylings.
