2017 Music Catch Up

Time to look back on all the nonsense I didn't talk about on this here blog; discussed in as little as one sentence.

The Great Big Best & Worst of 2017 List

365 days and not a single one wasted by you or me, I'm sure. It's time to praise those who put some effort into their art and ridicule those who don't.

Rule 1: Only full original material from 2017, no re-releases or demos. This means all EPs, Singles and LPs from this year are fair game, but not singles for upcoming releases in 2018. This also means no Live albums or Cover albums. Those just don’t count.

Rule 2: An album cannot end up on the “best” list for being just good, it has to be great or near-perfect. Likewise, albums cannot end up on the “worst” list just for being mediocre. If you are on the “worst” list, you deserve it.

Rule 3: Don’t get hung up on the ranking. All music on the “best” list is good, so do yourself a favor and check everyone out.

OK, let’s begin.

Star Wars: The Last Jedi: Movie Review (Minor Spoilers)

*Note: 'Minor Spoilers' refers to basic plot detail, and information revealed in trailers and other publicly available knowledge, but no actual plot specifics. Continue reading at your own risk.*

It's time for us to take a deep breath and a step back and consider that perhaps bringing Star Wars back wasn't a good idea.

Spotify Playlists

Just a heads up that over on Spotify I have two playlists setup. One for all the music I've been listening to over the course of 2017, and one from last year that I use to catalog all the music I'm interested in. There's tons of rock, punk, metal, jazz, etc, and it's all good/bad/whatever. Point is, I'm interested in it, and it's there. It would be cool if you or someone you know followed it and told me if there was anything else I could add to it.

Anyways, that's all. See ya.
