What is everybody listening to and looking forward to in this new year?
Last Friday, Depeche Mode dropped a new album called
Spirit. While I do really enjoy their work from the latter part of the '80s, I had yet to give a listen to anything past 1990's classic
Violator, so I didn't know what to expect with this new album. I've found that I'm pleasantly surprised by it and I think I'm really going to like it in the long run. I definitely need to give it a proper review in due time.
Apparently, just before that was the new Spoon album "Hot Thoughts" which I've only listened to twice today. I have only been listening to Spoon a couple years--I fell in love with the single "Inside Out" from the last album--so I'm not the best equipped to rate the new album in regards to everything else they've done over the years, but my first impressions of the new album were indeed quite good.
