1. SMOKE AND MIRRORS

OH. MY. GOSH.

Can we please talk about smoke and mirrors?!

I'm honestly completely obsessed with this entire album.

It's so different from their previous album(s), and I'm wow. .speechless.

Boys you have truly outdone yourselves this time.

Speaking of Imagine Dragons, their cover of Blank Space is pretty amazing.

2. THIS IS ALL YOURS

Alt-J has been one of my favs since early 2013.

They hadn't released new music since 2012, so when they released 

This Is All Yours in July of 2014, I was ecstatic. 

If you haven't heard their music, I highly suggest you do so.

My all time fav song is : Breezeblocks

F A V S  F R O M  T H I S  I S  A L L  Y O U R S:

PUSHER

LEFT HAND FREE

EVERY OTHER FRECKLE

THE GOSPEL OF JOHN HURT

My mother is a saint and got me tickets to see them again in Apil 

and I cannot contain my excitement. I went to one of their shows two years ago and it

was absolutely amazing. The crowd they attract is so unique, and everyone's so nice

and different and I absolutely love it. I can't wait to be around them all again.

3. TIME

Two words. Mikky Ekko.

L O V E  O F  M Y  L I F E, AMIRIGHT LADIES?!

His voice is f.l.a.w.l.e.s.s. in every form of the word and he's literally the cutest person I've seen in my entire life. He deserves all the good in the world. Like w0W he's gr8.

I had the opportunity to actually meet him this past month, and lemme tell you

he's even cuter in person than he is in pictures, and that's saying something. 

But back to the album. 

Complete perfection. That's all I have to say.

Listen to it. Listen to it all. In one sitting. Love yourself.

F A V S  F R O M  T I M E:

TIME

SMILE

COMATOSE

PULL ME DOWN

WATCH ME RISE

when I say every single other frickin song on the album I mean it

he's an angel and his voice proves it 

Literally the best album I've heard in my life, give it listen.
