Here comes your look back at albums that stuck with me as we went through 2017. From the stuff I reviewed in the first half of the year to things I received after I stopped reviewing…it’s all very good music, and we’ll take in almost two hours of it. Enjoy.

Since you all did a fine job of surviving last episode’s dark and murky spaces, I’ll reward you with lighter, brighter tones. There’s quite a bit of guitar in the front half.

All dark ambient, to take us into the dark of a New England December. No stops on this one, so get ready to go deep.

(Clever me, originally putting all those ampersands in between the artist names. Well, turns out that screwed up the RSS feed. So, after the episode posted I have to switch them all to “and.”)

Let’s kick this off with a snappy uptempo thing. Then maybe later we’ll go quieter and more ambient. This 90-minute flow runs pretty deep. Headphones on, if you please.

Is the quiet of the new digs seeping into the podcast? If it is, I think we can probably agree that it wouldn’t be a bad thing at all. The show doesn’t start all that quietly, but we’ll certainly get there before we’re through.
