People Who Can Eat People Are the Luckiest People in the World - AJJ
Genre: Folk Punk but good

Hi! have you ever wanted to listen to good folk punk? Then do I have news for you, it exists and is call People Who Can Eat People Are the Luckiest People in the World! This album has it all Sodomy AND Buggery, references to Woody Guthrie and Arlo Guthrie and Semon and Gay Unkle. the way it weaves together fear and existentialism and nihilism and hope is pretty much unmatched and the raw frantic fast paced sound truly elevates the experience, so like if you need an entry point into this shite genre, start with one of the few actually good albums in it
My favorite songs on her:

  • Brave as a Noun
  • People II the reckoning
  • No More Tears
  • Bad Bad Things

I can't even remember here I found this album, I think it was a random tumblr comment on a post about Folk Punk which like hell yeah, that is one hell of a way to find one of your favoite albums!

Challengers - The New Pornographers
Genre: Indie Baroque Pop

It's just a really fun album, It has this really cool use of harmonies that I really haven't seen before, its kinda quintessential indie pop in my mind I don't have much else to say. If you are a pretentious art student who loves shit like the decemberists, this isn't that, but it will make you happy!
My favorite songs on her:

  • Your Rights Vs Mine
  • Myriad Harbor
  • All the Old Showstoppers
  • Go Places

I was recommended this album by a mutual on tumblr, and it did not disappoint! Thank You Nya! I am going to try and do these reviews as often as possible.
