Thanks to those who've posted years best lists full of things I need to spend more time listening to (especially Lydia Ainsworth). Favorite ecto albums of 2014: Fear of Men - Loom http://youtu.be/dXkR9eAY4D0 (live studio performance) http://youtu.be/0UMd0rI7ppw (video) Emma Ruth Rundle - Some Heavy Ocean https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BlDCoCcCt1Q My Brightest Diamond - This Is My Hand http://youtu.be/CePpTXIuQzY Looking forward to in 2015: new Sleater-Kinney album! new The Joy Formidable album! Favorite not-at-all-ecto album of 2014: Pallbearer - Foundations of Burden "Pallbearer plays stately, mournful doom metal that works on the scale of planets and eons."o;? http://youtu.be/h2A0o4iXoPE Favorite novel of 2014: Jeff Vandermeer's Southern Reach trilogy http://www.fsgoriginals.com/books/detail/area-x Michael ------------------------------ End of ecto-digest V16 #1305 ****************************
