This Week’s Albums

I’ve set myself a bit of a challenge going forwards; I want to get back into really enjoying albums, rather than listening to as much music as is humanly possible! So, I’m taking the time to choose 5 albums on a Sunday night/Monday morning that will be my ‘focus group’ for the week. Once they’re synced via Spotify, that’s it for the week!

This week’s albums are:

  1. Brad Mehldau - The Art of the Trio Vol. 5: Progression
  2. e.s.t Esbjorn Svensson Trio - Strange Place for Snow
  3. Unrehurst & Robert Hurst - Unrehurst Vol. 1
  4. The Mars Volta - The Bedlam In Goliath
  5. Filter - The Amalgamut 

I’m looking forward to these.

(If there’s anything I should check out, please let me know! I’m always on the hunt for new music… once a week…!)
