It’s finally time for Round 10! Round of the Horse!?
Optional Theme: Horse! Why not? Horses are fun. Themes are fun! If you got an album by Horse band, or a horse song, or a horse connection or even if it makes you think of a horse for some reason… why not make a pick based on that?
This thread is going to be to post recommendations for what to listen to for the next round. If you’d like to participate in the discussions, please feel free to make a recommendation! If you’re likely not to hang out for a few of them it’s okay! but please don’t recommend an album. I want to stress tho that if you think you shouldn’t participate because you don’t want to commit to listening to all of them that you should still go ahead and recommend one.
The recommendations will be open 2/4-2/11, but I’ll keep an eye out if there’s any late picks after it closes.
Threads for now will still go up every Wednesday @ 10am EST
“Rules”/notes:
- Please make one suggestion this time
- The purpose of the album club is to listen to others’ recommendations and your own and talk about how you liked them/any other thoughts on the music. Writing about music is intimidating to most of us, no one has to go deep or say more than they think they can. It’s just for fun.
- These albums do not have to be ‘important’ or beloved, they can be a personal favorite you’re interested in others’ thoughts on, something you’ve never gotten around to yourself, or honestly just anything. They don’t have to be a specific genre or exclude any genres.
- Albums, EPs, Soundtracks, Cast Recordings, Original Scores, Legitimate Mix Tapes, Live Albums, etc. all good – if you’re not sure just ask it’s probably a yes.
- That said – remember they’re albums you would like us, your friends, to listen to and talk about. So think before you recommend something you know is terrible or won’t have much to say about. (i.e. if you’re recommending something because you know its annoying I will probably skip it)
- Please try and see if the albums are available online in some way – I know streaming sucks and all but it makes it easier if a whole album is available on Spotify, Apple, or Youtube (if Youtube only make a note of it if possible).
- If there are multiple version of an album please let me know which version you prefer us to hear. If there is multiple version and you catch it later you can always tag me in one of the music threads to note.
- There has been occasions where someone wants to talk about their album more than just a discussion, if that’s you and you want to do a full article on the album let me know and you can have the header to do so.
Here’s the list of what we’ve done so far, in a new handy separate article
Next Week: the list! discussion!
Have fun!
