That Alex Cameron album was a good listen, cheers for that dentalplan. 

Moved onto Kaytranada, love it. Been a decent year of music hasn't it?

I can't wait to hear it, il be waiting until Friday though. Randy and Alakazam are absolutely magic, if the album continues in that vein it'll be a classic

I'm almost certain it won't receive universal acclaim but three thumbs up from me. Alakazam! - which I hadn't listened to to save for the album - is so huge you can see it from space. One of many belting tracks.

New Marychain album announced 

Would be an amazing booking, probably not relevant enough anymore but would love to see them headline JP Tent

Edit: Just noticed this has its own thread, my bad

Anyone else seen the Rough Trade albums of the year? Thoughts?

I've been going through the list and there's some good stuff I missed on there, there's some glaring omissions on it for me though.

Car Seat Headrest, Angel Olsen, Radiohead and Hinds are all likely to be in my top 10 of 2016 but there a lot on there I've not heard yet that'll need to check out.

They left out Pablo Honey.

Rough Trade always promote their own releases. Often a weird list. Been a strong year though ain't it.

[Winslow Leach]

Starting to think about what would be in my list and yeah, it's been a fucking good year for music, if nothing else.

Such as? I have real trouble remembering what year some stuff came out! Could have sworn Konnichiwa came out last year for instance.

Yep been a cracker. Hard to keep up sometimes! 

[Winslow Leach]

Is this it? Is this the build up to everyone posting their own lists? It's not even December yet!

[Mezhyp1]

A Tribe Called Quest new album will be making its way into my Top 10 that's for sure, been thoroughly enjoying it recently

There are a couple of interesting early December releases but after that we ride.

Yak and Parquet Courts spring to mind. I'm guessing Frank Ocean and Kanye West aren't there because they've not been physically released. I'd probably wack Xenia Rubinos, The Wytches and Let's Eat Grandma in there. There's probably others but I guess I haven't heard all the competition. If it's in any order Skeleton Tree has to be higher...

Really looking forward to giving the new Justice album a listen tomorrow.

Are we assuming they will be announcing a tour at some point in the not too distant future. What sort of size venue would they play? I'm North London based and wouldnt mind an Alley Pally gig next year - is that a realistic possibility?
