I think mofo and I are the only ones who had it, so sadly it won't qualify.

Hey Phanan, I'm glad we got the "you point out to me that I've forgotten someone's list" thing out of the way before I tabulated them this year.

Alright, we've got 23 lists and it's mid-January. I'm gonna ask now: does anyone else intend to submit lists to this jawn? If so, I'll wait. But it seems like most everyone who normally submits a list has done so at this point.

I'm debating. Give me a day if you don't mind; if I don't post a list by this time tomorrow then I'm out.

No pressure. Think it was nearly a week later last year that I did the final tally so we're ahead of schedule at this point in my book.

I thought Pendulum was one of the best songs of the year.

Is this the newest profile, or did he do that with the second one?

This was like a bat signal for me. What a great song.
One album that everyone overlooked this year that is in a similar vein was Oak Island's (The War on Drugs' Dave Hartley) Nightlands.
Nightlands "So Far So Long" (Official Audio) - YouTube

What, you think you are done fucking things up?
Nice song, thanks for sharing. Will check the album.
I knew the Destroyer reference would get your attention.
