Best EPs of the Year 2019

We won’t miss 2019. Most certainly, it has been the worst year we can remember from a personal standpoint. Hospital, losses, and an exhausting level of intensity, while at the same time an appalling feeling of standstill, although some changes in the late third of the year are giving us some hope. Consequently, the Blog production has also suffered, something we deeply regret and we aim to readdress in 2020. But that doesn’t mean we haven’t listened to music, and that we aren’t ready to begin with our best of the year lists. As always (you can check previous posts at the bottom of this page) we have selected our 15 favorite EPs (for us, they are comprised from 3 to 6 songs). A collection of gems that we have enjoyed the most over 2019. Hope you like them (at least as much as we do) and remember to stay tuned, more lists coming soon!

15. Not Yours! - Annie Taylor

14.  Dial H for Hannah Barberas - The Hannah Barberas
13. Daydream Hawker - Go Fever
12. Dear Natalie - Crake

The Bloodbuzzed Jukebox Week 224

Almost two weeks have passed of our latest TOP TEN JUKEBOX, fourteen days that have been one of the most stressful and sad that we have ever lived. It's never easy to say goodbye to someone you loved and raised you. But, despite the pain, we have managed to list another ten excellent songs for you to listen. Because music, like the memories, moments and the feelings shared, will always be with us, specially indie pop and jangle pop, two styles that are all around this Blog and on this week's playlist. Also, we haven't forgotten that today is the Record Store Day so, what a better way to cheer-up us than with good music? Have a nice weekend and remember all these people who's crazy enough to still release, play or even have a music store. And remember, all the songs are available at our Soundcloud. (Join Us!)

The Bloodbuzzed Jukebox Week 217

Long and extenuating week (the bad colds courtesy of Winter time and air-conditioning/heaters nonsense continues) that deserves to be cheered-up with another round of our TOP TEN JUKEBOX.  And, pardon our lack of modesty, we are pretty sure the playlist we have prepared for you is going to meet our aims... because is full of amazing discoveries and unmistakable returns to form! Ace new tunes from surefires I Was a King and Tiny Ruins (expectations couldn't be higher for forthcoming album), killer finds such as the tracks from The Black Fever, Hobby Club or Misty Coast, among others.... and the return of the Maestro himself, Mr. Robert Forster. It can get much better than this, so enjoy, have fun and remember, all the songs are available at our Soundcloud. (Join Us!)
