Best Records of the Year 2020: 40-21

Later than ever, we know... but December (more hospital visits) has been pretty hectic, somewhat fitting this surreal year, finally vanishing. Yet the time has arrived to unveil our Best Records of 2020! Like we did last year, we have maintained the number of 40 for the albums listed, splitting the post in two. The only difference being the inclusion of EPs within the list (as we haven't had a lot of them among our favourites this season). Therefore, here are our mandatory albums, "in charge of" our soundtrack in this excruciating 2020, starting with the LPs ranging from 40 to 21. A stunning harvest despite the times, really deserving a listen! And stay tuned, the Top 20 will be online tomorrow!

40. Lifetime of Comedy- The Parson Red Heads
39. Jetstream Pony- Jetstream Pony
38. Horse- Holy Motors
37. All This Talking Gets Us Nowhere- The Buoys
36. Johnny- Lawn
35. Agitprop Alterna- Peel Dream Magazine
34. Heathers- Terry vs. Tori
33. Carefree Theatre- Surfer Blood

The Bloodbuzzed Jukebox Week 275

Rainy weekend to put a closure to this intense, crazy and uncertain (a summary of the whole year, honestly) November. Pretty soon we'll start preparing the end-of-the-year lists and the holidays preparations (if we are able to do so). But for the time being, here's our latest TOP TEN JUKEBOX. A collection of exciting newbies alongside two Blog friends: the infallible Jetstream Pony and the return (yay for that!) of beloved Northern Portrait. Have a good weekend, and remember to join us at our Soundcloud page!

The Bloodbuzzed Jukebox Week 249

After some intense days of work, decisions, anxiety and changes, we have landed on this long weekend with a spectacular TOP TEN JUKEBOX. It was more or less ready past week, but with so much hustle and bustle, we haven't been able to publish it before (add some technical problems to the mix, bye bye Soundcloud), but better late than never. These ten songs, a royal flush with several essential groups for this humble blog such as Jetstream Pony, The Persian Leaps, Basia Bulat or Eyelids, deserve to be listened carefully. And don't worry, we already know that we are in December and it's time for the best of the year lists... Have a nice Sunday and don't forget to stop by at our Spotify!

* For us, EPs releases comprising from 3 to 6 songs. However, we have made an exception with Cosmo K's 'Último Disco', technically a mini-album, but due to its very brief duration we have included it here. We liked it too much...

The Bloodbuzzed Jukebox Week 199

Last few hours before taking a short holiday break (we'll be gone for a week) and hit the road again. But before 'dealing' with the proper procedures of any trip (how to fill the suitcase? places to visit? etc) we couldn't leave you without your regular dose of TOP TEN JUKEBOX. As usual, the playlist is full of bands that we have discovered these last days, but also some beloved groups that have already joined us on other occasions such as Jetstream Pony or Young Scum. A lot to listen, a lot to enjoy! Take care and remember, all the songs are available at our Soundcloud. (Join Us!)

The Bloodbuzzed Jukebox Week 160

Long weekend ahead for us, thanks to La Mercè festivity in Barcelona! Something that also means a great bunch of activities to do in the city and obviously, some concerts to go. Of course, all of this mixed with the crazy political situation in Catalonia-Spain that this week has reached unbelievable levels of paranoia. But don't worry, these 'distractions' haven't made us forget our traditional TOP TEN Jukebox. This time, full of indie-pop discoveries, exciting returns (A Certain Smile, Terry vs. Tori) and a terrific Teenage Fanclub cover! Have fun and remember, all songs are available at our Soundcloud. (Join Us!)

The Bloodbuzzed Jukebox Week 149

The first Jukebox after Primavera Sound Festival is usually a hard one to do (it's called post-Festival depression). But not this time, thanks to the great tunes assembled on our weekly Top Ten. A pretty diverse playlist with exciting new discoveries as Annie Hart or Rat Fancy, from our beloved label HHBTM Records, as well as some 'old friends' of the Blog, like the ace return of The Stammer or We.the Pigs, plus the wonderful surprise of Jestream Pony, a group formed by The Fireworks and The Luxembourg Signal members. So, plenty to listen, enjoy and discover! And remember, all songs are available at our Soundcloud. (Join Us!)
