Sufjan Stevens : Death With Dignity : Carrie and Lowell (2015)

-          I believe it's officially his forthcoming 6th album, but he's also but out numerous other compilations and releases from side projects.

-          One of the most talented musicians that I've been able to enjoy every step of the way.

-          This first teaser sounds like a hope-elevating return to his early stripped back folk days.

Official Site

Waxahatchee : blue pt. ii : Cerulean Salt (2013)

-          2nd full length. 3rd is on its way.

-          Project from Kate Crutchfield.

-          Debut was lo-fi and a rougher DIY style album.

-          Played a series of stripped back solo shows with only her twin sister, Allison of Swearin', on backup vocals at SXSW 2015.

Wolf Parade : I'll Believe In Anything : Apologies To The Queen Mary (2005)

-          Debut LP of 3.

-          One of the greatest independent rock bands of the past 20 years.

-          Led by Spencer Krug (Moonface, Sunset Rubdown) and Dan Boeckner (Handsome Furs, Divine Fits, Operators)

-          One of my favorite songs.

Moonface : Operators

Heart-Ships : Heart of a Wrestler : Foil (2014)          

-          Debut LP.

-          Debut EP, EP1 was a highlight of 2013.

-          Reminiscent of Modest Mouse and Frog Eyes, but most for the still-wounded Wolf Parade fans.

-          "You've taken some heavy hits in your time, you've been in some fierce grips, but the heart of a wrestler never submits.
