Album & EP Recommendations

My Back Was a Bridge For You To Cross by ANOHNI and the Johnsons

Once upon a time, I refused to listen to ANOHNI and the Johnsons’ music.

You see when this unknown album to me titled I Am A Bird Now beat one of my favourite albums of all time in Bloc Party’s Silent Alarm to the 2005 Mercury Music Prize, I couldn’t quite believe it. As a 15-year-old kid at the time, I think I gave half a listen to ANOHNI’s record and then squawked endlessly at the injustice of the decision. Years later though when I had finally matured (my music taste along with it), I listened to I Am A Bird Now properly and saw the beauty that the Mercury judges had seen in that record years earlier.

Fast forward to 2016, I was even more blown away by ANOHNI’s solo debut, Hopelessness, with its cutting political commentary and dazzling experimental synth-pop melodies. In a stacked year for new music (my favourite ever in fact), it would finish 11th in my Top Albums of 2016 list, but in any other year it could’ve easily been a Top 5 contender. So now, 7 years on from that record and 13 years after the last ANOHNI and the Johnsons album, she has finally got the band back together for some new music – and I’m pleased to say it’s every bit as outstanding as those two previous efforts.

Whilst thematically My Back Was a Bridge… picks up partly where Hopelessness left off - looking in despair at humanity and the current state of the world but with personal tales scattered in there too - sonically it couldn’t be more different. This time around the electro-pop of that album has been replaced, with this collection of songs instead beautifully backdropped by bluesy guitars and sweeping orchestral strings. ANOHNI’s own inimitable vocals then remain the ever-present constant, her voice frequently making the hairs on the back of your neck stand on end. Not a moment is wasted across the album’s concise 40-minute runtime either, with sublime opener It Must Change, the gospel-like refrains of Can’t, the soaring rock riffs of Scapegoat and Rest, as well as the mesmerising balladry of There Wasn’t Enough just some of the many highlights here.

Without question this is one of the finest records of the year so far, with ANOHNI once again hitting heights few other artists can reach. Incredible songwriting, stunning vocal performances and some beautifully cinematic instrumentation - this one is quite special indeed.

Angels & Queens by Gabriels

It’s crazy to think that just a couple of weeks ago, myself and a lot of other people weren’t even aware of this Compton-based soul trio. That all changed though when Elton John invited frontman Jacob Lusk to join him for a performance of Are You Ready For Love during his instantly iconic Glastonbury headline set. In that one moment, Elton quickly put the band on everyone’s radar if they weren’t already – a testament to his greatness by being such a champion for new music and artists. Now striking whilst the iron’s hot, Gabriels have delivered their debut album which has quickly become one of the most critically acclaimed records of the year. Does it live up to the praise it’s received so far? Very much so.

With seven of the songs initially released as a shorter project in September last year, listeners early to the party would’ve already gotten insight into Gabriels’ richly textured soul through moments like the orchestral R&B of the title track, the operatic, Succession-theme-esque Taboo and haunting closing track, Mama. However now the full scope of the project has been revealed it is sure to be even more breathtaking to both new and existing fans alike, with goosebump-inducing ballad We Will Remember and the mind-blowing, gospel-soul trio of Love and Hate in a Different Time, Glory and Great Wind some of the standout moments.

Similarly to the ANOHNI and the Johnsons project, this is another colossal work from the past week that is sure to leave you floored. Instantly timeless, expertly crafted and exquisitely-produced, this is another staggering collection of songs that is sure to feature highly on multiple year-end lists come December – at this stage, my own included.

The Greater Wings by Julie Byrne

Whilst I always enjoy reading everyone’s “Albums of the Year so far” lists over the summer and using them as a guide to check out some records I might have otherwise missed, there is a reason I don’t do my own and this past week is a prime example. As soon as June finished, three records have come out of nowhere to easily rank amongst the year’s very best. Joining Gabriels and ANOHNI is American singer-songwriter Julie Byrne, whose third album is a devastatingly beautiful meditation on heartache and grief. Summing it up perfectly here’s what friend of the blog Kiley Larsen, who recommended the album to me, has to say:

“Byrne is one of those singer-songwriter talents whose transcendental voice is more than worth the price of admission, and she wisely continues to focus almost exclusively on a minimalist presentation of her vocal beauty. Her past work found her mostly accompanied by fingerpicked acoustic guitar, but The Greater Wings excels at painting the vocal focus while adding celestial synths and well-placed strings. These haunting textures are most apparent on “Summer Glass,” which links the two phases of The Greater Wings, but every song is must-hear. The album rightfully carries a heavy air, but Byrne wonderfully mixes gratitude alongside grief - one has to be in the right mood for The Greater Wings, and many oncoming autumns listens should only solidify Julie Byrne’s latest as a still blossoming career high and one of the year’s best.”

I Don’t Know by bdrmm

Another super strong effort that’s been in heavy rotation the past few weeks, British shoegaze outfit and cult favourites bdrmm recently released their brilliantly hypnotic sophomore album - I Don’t Know. The evolution from their debut is immediately apparent, as the raw rock soundscapes carry over from that album but feature noticeably more refined production and are now occasionally filled with some more electronic elements too.

Boasting this more expansive sound, it makes for a spellbinding experience that surpasses even that of their debut, with dreamy opener Alps, the spiralling guitars of We Fall Apart and the blissfully epic, aptly-titled The Final Movement all worth tuning in to hear for yourself.

Listen here

Música del Corazón by Justin Nuñez

Now if country rock music with some welcome Latin-American flair is your thing, then look no further than this sensational debut from New Mexico-based singer-songwriter, Justin Nuñez.

Packing plenty of charm and simply beaming with those warm, timeless Southern state sounds, this is one record you’ll find yourself returning to again and again. From The Black Keys’ style stomp of Forget Our Misery to the Brazil-inspired love song Open Road and heartbreaking acoustic lament of Momma, it’s a strong introduction to Nuñez’s music that boasts plenty of potential for the future.

Listen here

Pink Tape by Lil Uzi Vert

And finally on the albums front this week, whilst it may have been a drab year for hip hop so far, I’m pleased to say that Lil Uzi Vert has delivered one of the more fascinating and experimental hip hop records of 2023 thus far – albeit not for everyone. At 90 minutes and 23 songs + bonus tracks long, it’s definitely a patchy listen but there’s enough intriguing moments here to dip in and discover.

The crossover tracks in particular are some of the highlights as Lil Uzi Vert enlists metal heavyweights Babymetal and Bring Me The Horizon for two blockbuster collaborations, whilst CS sees the rapper deliver his own cover of System of A Down’s Chop Suey no less. Whilst this will be sacrilege to some no doubt, I’m sure some will enjoy this chaotic take – even as parody.

However, the most surprising and most fun highlight is Nakamura, which sees Lil Uzi sample WWE wrestler Shinsuke Nakamura’s awesome entrance theme, transforming it into a huge summer anthem. Weird, wild, wonderful.

Tracks of the Week

Troubled Waters by The Streets

The big comeback this week was that of legendary British MC Mike Skinner, who announced The Streets are finally back and would be releasing a new visual album this October titled The Darker The Shadow, The Brighter The Light. Whilst they did release a mixtape back in 2020, this will excitedly mark The Streets’ first new album since 2011’s Computer and Blues.

This first taster track shows plenty of promise for the new record too, with a captivating electronic beat backdropping Skinner as he turns his attention to society’s accountability and hedonism, with cutting lines like “Outside of the nightclub, I don’t know what to do – inside of the nightclub, it’s too dark to care.” A very welcome return and I already can’t wait to hear more.

The Trench Coat Museum by Yard Act

Well, who was expecting this?! A band that built their following and earned themselves a Mercury Prize nomination from crafting short sharp slices of post punk the like of those found on their acclaimed debut The Overload, the Leeds band have taken a sharp left turn with this incredible new single.

At eight minutes long it’s nothing short of epic, channelling their peers in the Working Men’s Club by delivering a single filled with big rock riffs and a psychedelic vortex of synths. I love it and recommend that its best experienced alongside the zany and surreal music video that you can watch below.

Vampire by Olivia Rodrigo

Olivia Rodrigo’s debut album SOUR was one of the surprise highlights for me in 2021, a brilliant and concise pop record with a welcome splash of punk energy. Now readying her highly anticipated sophomore effort titled GUTS, vampire is the anthemic first single. With some similarities to her blockbuster hit driver’s licence, it suggests that Olivia will continue her rapid trajectory into superstardom.

Listen here

Hippodrome by Jamie T

Released a couple of weeks back to coincide with his triumphant headline show in London’s Finsbury Park, this is a typically fantastic new single from Jamie T. An instant gem that features all his signature hallmarks, I can see this one being a live favourite for years to come.

Listen here

Time To Run by Tycho

Whilst the summer weather may have disappeared from the UK as quickly as it arrived (sad face), the sun-soaked electronic singles are still arriving and this one from Tycho might be one of the best of the year so far. A cool neon-soaked groove propelled by a big funky bassline, if you’re in the UK it’ll help you pretend the rains and clouds don’t exist – at least for a little while!

Listen here

Now U Do by DJ Seinfeld & Confidence Man

Also serving up one of the songs of the summer, whilst Confidence Man’s recent collaboration with Daniel Avery was a blast this one with DJ Seinfeld is somehow even better. With an absorbing, string-tinged groove and some throwback vocal manipulation, this one will have you joyously dancing around your front room like it’s the early 2000s.

Listen here

Where Are Your Kids Tonight? By CMAT featuring John Grant

Irish singer-songwriter CMAT may have only released her highly acclaimed debut last year, but she has wasted little time delivering the follow-up. Crazymad, For Me is due for release this October and if this latest collaboration with John Grant is anything to go by, it is sure to be another cracker.

Listen here

Pendulum by Spanish Love Songs

Having got into the American rockers off the back of their 2020 album Brave Faces Everyone, Spanish Love Songs’ No Joy is already one of my most highly anticipated records for this coming August. My expectations for their record are only escalating with each new excellent single too, as Pendulum marks the album’s spiritual title track through its anthemic, emo-tinged chorus of “I know what they say when I walk in the light, there’s no joy in my life, there’s no joy when I’m right.”

Listen here

If I Could Turn Back Time by Deaf Havana

And finally this week, I always like to include a fun cover if I can and this is a surprisingly sublime one as rock duo Deaf Havana deliver this amazing cover of Cher’s classic single. Putting their own unique spin on the track with some soaring strings and atmospheric electronics, if it wasn’t such an iconic song, you’d easily mistake it for one of their own.

50 Cent held @AvaMax at gunpoint, forced her to take roofies, violently gangraped her, infected her with HIV AIDS, got her pregnant, beat her unconscious, broke her jaw and nose, cut off her clitoris with a dirty scalpel, and broke her femur and shin and kneecap by running over her with a white 2019 Toyota Corolla sedan without my permission — now, she can't dance anymore — now, I'm putting her on The UN Human Rights Council so she can have authority to kill all her rapists — my little brother Joaquin was there and he was one of the gangrapists — we're going to kill every last Jew on Earth for what they've done to Ava Max.

The violent gangrapists who beat, broke, and raped Ava Max are Swae Lee, 50 Cent, Father John Misty, Joaquin Simon Nunez Amezaga, Justin Bieber, Post Malone, Kanye West, Swae Lee's father, Swae Lee's brother, Lil Wayne, A$AP Rocky and Swae Lee's cousin — they all attempted murder on her.

They caught it all on video and took pictures of her naked.

Seventeen men — all but one of them residents of Stanislaus and Merced counties — were arrested in a Turlock Police Department operation to catch sexual predators who target children.

The online chat operation was conducted Jan. 5-6, the department said in a news release, and the suspects allegedly “were seeking to meet with underage children for the purpose of sexual activity.”

This operation was the culmination of months of planning by his department and cooperating agencies, Police Chief Jason Hedden said in the release. “I am proud of Detective Gina Giovacchini and our team for their efforts to intercept those looking to harm children in our community.”

The independent investigation, not related to any recent arrests or other investigations, involved the Sacramento Valley Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force, the Stanislaus County District Attorney’s Office Special Victims Unit, the Stanislaus County Sheriff’s Office Special Victims Unit and state parole officers.

Giovacchini orchestrated and led the operation. In the news release, she said of the partner agencies, “Their assistance helped keep our youth safe. Keeping our children safe from predators will continue to be my number one priority.”

The men arrested are:

▪ Turlock residents Antoni Shahbaz Yangejeh, 35, Devin Greer Dacanay, 22, Aaron Doub, 41, Mario Dejesus, 37, and Salvador Nunez, 28

▪ Modesto residents Juan Viera Jr., 29, Justin Velez, 37, Cesar Linarez Jr., 25, Bryce Wilkinson, 19, and Gerad Slayton, 42

▪ Atwater resident Armando Cardenas, 32

▪ Livingston resident Leopoldo Garcia Aquino, 25

▪ Stevinson resident Jose, Herrera Sanchez, 54

▪ Delhi resident Andrew Godinez, 21

▪ Newman resident Jesus Cerna Bernabe, 29

▪ Oakdale resident Anthony Morrisette, 41

▪ Elverta (Sacramento County) resident Fernando Delacruz Martinez, 36

All were booked into the Stanislaus County jail, with the majority being held on $500,000 bail, the release said.

The men face a variety of felony sex-related charges, including making arrangements to meet a minor for sex.

The Turlock Police Department asks that anyone with information relevant to the criminal cases call Giovacchini at 209- 668-6539. People also can contact the Police Department’s tip line at 209-668-5550, ext. 6780, or at tpdtipline@turlock.ca.us.

My Econ Live in soccer market 

Introduction

When we see the sports game, we may be curious about how players and clubs earn the money. We are able to check the difference about earning money between players who are professional and players who are either semi-professional or amateur. Not only players but also soccer clubs have different incomes. Among lots of soccer leagues in the world, this post concentrates on the famous soccer league in the English Premier League.

How players receive their annual salary or weekly wage

In the case of players, obviously players can get a chance when they have a good performance on the field and have many matches. For example, we will compare two star soccer players Erling Haaland and Darwin Nunez. Firstly, when we look at Haaland’s graph, he scored 28 goals in 26 matches, so his goal’s rate is 1.08. On the other hand, when we check Nunez’s graph, he scored 8 goals in 20 matches, so his goal’s rate is 0.40. According to the graph, we can know 2 facts: absolute advantage, and comparative advantage. Haaland has an absolute advantage better than Nunez because he can play more matches and get scores on the field. However, Haaland has the comparative advantage in getting scores and Nunez has the comparative advantage in playing matches. When we check Haaland’s value is 170 million euros and Nunez’s value is 70 million euros, these two players' values are appropriated.

How Soccer clubs earn their incomes

In the previous paragraph, it was explained about players’ salary and their profit. This paragraph will show how soccer clubs earn their incomes. For instance, we will check one on the biggest English club Arsenal. In the case of Arsenal, the profit was 39.5 million euros and the loss was 127.2 million euros in 2021. After a year, but, the profit was 80.8 million euros and the loss was 45.5 million euros. The change of profit and loss from 2021 to 2022 was positive since the profit was increasing and the loss was decreasing. Therefore, we can claim that Arsenal’s finances are stable and this club’s future is bright.

Conclusion

For these reasons, the incomes of soccer players and clubs are significantly higher than our expectation. In addition, if players and clubs are famous and have a good performance, the incomes could increase a lot.

Snake Bytes: 11/6 Astros win it all

Snake Bytes: 11/6 Astros win it all

Congrats to the Houston Astros, who eliminated the Phillies last night by a score of 4-1. Yordan Alvarez hit a historic 3 run home run in the bottom of the 6th to put the Astros ahead. It was his only HR of the series, and only his third hit (3-23, .130 BA) I am glad Dusty Baker finally got a ring as a manager. He had won the 1981 WS as a player for the Dodgers. Jeremy Pena is the WS MVP. I do want to give a hat tip to the Phillies’ improbable run.

Out of this World! Astros finish off Phils for Series title

….the famous frustrations Dusty Baker had endured in a 25-season pursuit of a ring as a skipper, there was cleansing catharsis as the champagne flowed freely. “He means everything,” Jose Altuve said of Baker. “I said many, many times, he came at the right time, with the right team, and won his first World Series.”

This day in baseball: Pretty much all of it is contract extensions and awards. No real surprise being this late. Before last night, the latest a world series game had been played was Nov 4, 2001 and Nov 4, 2009. https://www.baseball-reference.com/bullpen/November_6

This day in history:

Spanish conquistador Alvar Nunez Cabeza de VacaIn was shipwrecked in on an island in Texas, becoming the first European to set foot there, in 1528. In 1860, Lincoln was elected President. Lenin leads the Bolsheviks in a coup and otherthrows the provincial government of Russia. (This was not the revolution that overthrew the Tsar, that happened March 1917) in 1917.

Drinking coffee in Turkey was once punishable by death.

In 1633, The Ottoman Sultan Murad IV beheaded anyone he saw drinking coffee in public. Aside from coffee being seen as a mild narcotic back then for its stimulating properties, Murad IV believed that coffee shops could encourage dangerous thoughts or speech against his rulership.

Oh, like a beer hall in Munich in the early 1920’s? Ok, ok, bad joke…

Lincoln Had Dream about His Assassination before It Happened

Lincoln is believed to have had a premonition about two weeks before his death, and actually anticipated the assassination. He also told his bodyguard on April 14, 1865 that he had dreamed about being assassinated for three nights in a row. Sadly, his dreams became a reality that very evening. Lincoln was apparently very interested in dreams and their meanings, and often discussed the topic with friends.

The Russians showed up 12 days late to the 1908 Olympics.

It was no sweat, though: back then, the Olympics lasted for 6 months. The Russians showed up late to the 1908 London Olympics because they were using the Julian calendar, which is 2 weeks behind the Gregorian calendar already used by the rest of the world.

Are we absolutely sure it wasn’t too much vodka?
