Top Tracks for September

 

10. Sam and Dave - Soul Man

9. Martha and the Vandellas - Dancing in the Street

Well, you saw the top genres. Can't be terribly surprising, right?

 

8. A Tiger Made of Lightning - You Are Who You Choose To Be

7. A Tiger Made of Lightning - My Friends, You Bow To No One

6. A Tiger Made of Lightning - It's Chaos, Be Kind

The ATMoL album is great and I was slamming it in September.

 

5. The Byrds - Turn! Turn! Turn! 

The Byrds have a great amount of hits but Turn Turn Turn and Mr Tambourine Man are just beyond incredible.

 

4. Dion - Runaround Sue

I don't remember listening to this song more times than any of the others above it. Haha

3. Assemblage 23 - Endure

Gotta keep yourself built up as the year expires.

 

2. Best Foot Back - Give It A Go

 I did an interview with BFB and they just released their new single which is a JAM.

 

1. A Tiger Made of Lightning - Little Birds

I first heard this song acoustically several months ago - the recorded version is beyond incredible.

Top Artists for September

 

10. Alessia Cara

Catching up on new releases - somebody mentioned Alessia Cara and man, this album is wild. Very minimalist for a popstar.

 

9. Neuroticfish

8. VNV Nation

In spite of not having any electronic stuff at the final genre count, I did still listen to plenty of the goods.

 

7. NF

A friend of mine had been telling me how great NF was for a long time, and for some reason I had never checked him out.  Dude hits hard.

 

6. Assemblage 23

Like I said before, the new A23 record is simply majestic.

 

5. Anberlin

Why Anberlin? To escape the doldrums of the oldies, I suppose! Why not?

 

4. Caleb Miller

Caleb Miller released a 67 track album fresh from the pandemic... so I guess he got 67 streams in September...? lol

 

3. A Tiger Made of Lightning

 Like I said, what an amazing album. If there were more than 5 tracks, there'd probably be more scrobbles.

 

2. Teenage Wrist

Album of the year, no doubt in my mind.

 

1. Blindside

Didn't see that one coming, didja? Yeah, me neither. Someone sent me a Blindside song and it ignited some heavy nostalgia. Even after all these years, they're tremendous.
