Think I'll try to clear out a few more 2016 odds and ends before 2017 stuff starts showing up. Watch out cause sooner or later I might start playing a bunch of the metal I started listening to last year.

The Walkmen – In the New Year
Happy New Year, Citizens.
This song came out in the summer of 2008, and for me it definitely captured a feeling of that fall and into the start of 2009; a feeling that feels pretty far away here coming from the end of 2016, but my hope and wish is for everyone here to catch a little bit of that feeling again in the new year.
Bon Iver – 33 “GOD”
So I get one more "official" Best of 2016 video. A lot of my favorites have already been hit (other than people like Frank who have no live videos of new stuff yet), but if you know me, you probably know what we haven't played yet that's going to be at the top of my list.

Local Natives – Coins
I'm not actually sure this is all that good, but it's definitely very hipster, so that counts for something.
Pinegrove – Aphasia
Now's the time of year when I start trying to cram in listening to all the stuff I've missed from earlier in the year before I finish my best-of list. Here's one of those that will probably end up on said list.
The National – Start a War
But some of them will be "start" songs. And some of them will be The National.
Little Joy – Brand New Start
Greetings. I am a new DJ. I look forward to spinning some tunes for your enjoyment. Let's get...started.
Hamilton Leithauser + Rostam – A 1000 Times
FTLT (the citizen that alerted the citizenry to the likes of Alabama Shakes and Courtney Barnett long before everyone else figured it out, who also used to be a DJ, contributor, and frequent commenter as well as being known as somewhat of a basketball enthusiast (in the case that anyone is unfamiliar)) causally dropped a mention in a FMD a little bit back. I've learned to listen when the hitman does so.
A collaboration between the lead singer of The Walkmen and one of the main cogs of Vampire Weekend, their album is a whirling plunge through genres, eras, and textures, but all with a distinctly original sound that I hope they explore on another album or two. Anyway, this song has been between lowkey to rock-climber's grip stuck in my head for the past few weeks now.
