Best New Albums of 2019

Kid Koala - Music To Draw To: IO - (Arts & Crafts)
Electronic/Ambient


The follow up to 2017's Music To Draw To: Satalite which featured Emiliana Torrini this time featuring guest vocals from Trixie Whitley.

I was going to write a few words but the video below visualises the feel of the album pretty well

 

I've enjoyed listening to the new Jessica Pratt album so much that I've bought a ticket to see her live in London next month.

 

This album is a lovely listen cause it has many timeless legends, Hope, Vashti, Norah, Susanne, etc.:



Bobbie Gentry's The Delta Sweete Revisited, by Mercury Rev

 

And there are archival albums being released, too. This is quite beautiful and transporting — a Brazilian post-Bossa Nova album that has been re-mastered and pressed on 180 gram.



Os Catedraticos 73, by Eumir Deodato

 

This album is very good. Not quite as dynamite as the Desaparecidos albums. But, Conor is always improving somehow and Phoebe has a certain indescribable quality.

 

The 3 songs on youtube from These New Puritans new album sound fantastic. Been a long wait but sounds like it'll be worth it.

 

I agree! I just discovered them recently, but I think their previous album may just be my favorite album made by anyone this decade. The new one seems like it will be very different, but still managing to combine beauty with adventurousness. Probably my most anticipated release of the year.

 

The new one from Tedeschi Trucks Band entitled Signs is out now. It is predictably wonderful. They are such a great band. Makes my soul feel so good.

 

"Fever", the new - fourth - album from Belgiums Balthazar, is surprisingly good. The side projects by Jinte Deprez (J.Bernardt) and Maarten Devoldere (Warhaus) have taken nothing away but actually added to the band sound. Slightly more funky and quite nocturnal with a nice sounding vinyl edition on black and limited white wax. Here's the album opening title track:

 

Very much enjoying this album that just came out on Friday

Ryan Bingham - American Love Song

 

Just ordered the LP, I’ve never actually listened to EST before but this was excellent. Going to have to fix that soon.

 

Enjoying this album a lot!

 

Came here with the same sentiments & couldn't have said it better myself.
I'm not the first, but got here second to be able to say- let me be the first to second those emotions!!!

Best new albums of 2019?
Make mine "Signs"by The Tedeschi-Trucks Band!!!

 

My personal favourites are the Live in Hamburg set and Tuesday Wonderland stand out for me. The Wesseltoft stuff is also worth checking out - it tends to be on the more electronic end of things (excluding some solo piano stuff).

 

Lee Harvey Osmond.....Mohawk

 

This one! Joe Jackson : "Fool"



If you ever loved Joe Jackson, this one's a must.

 

I agree this is really solid

 

The new Sunn 0))) album should be great.

 

Favorite artist on WIMB today

 

I don't know what this has to do with new 2019 albums but I love Neige so I'm glad you posted it!

 

Was feeling in the Christmas spirit!

Kankyō Ongaku: Japanese Ambient, Environmental & New Age Music 1980-1990, by Kankyō Ongaku

 

Just got this in the mail last week... loving it.. beautiful music and very nice book/packaging. Light in the Attic's deep dive into Japanese music has been fantastic, excited to see what they release next (and hoping that re-up the Happy End Reissues that I missed out on)

 

+1 for the new swervedriver record that was mentioned above. Great songs, great album! Impressive.

Giving many play-throughs to latest from Cass McCombs and also

White Fence "I have to feed Larry's Hawk". Kind of stripped down almost singer-songwriter vibe, with just enough weird and a left turn at Steve Reichville for the end.

 

I'm a huge Rough Guide fan. The newest to date: Rough Guide to Women of the World

 

Where at?
