CheapSweets Pick 'n' Mix - Best of 2022

What is it?

Call Down the Sun, second full album from Danish blackened death doom band Konvent (that's Konvent with a K, thanks).

Konvent is;

Rikke Emilie List - Vocals Sara Helena Nørregaard - Guitars Heidi Withington Brink - Bass Julie Simonsen - Drums

What is it like?

Having a wall fall on you. But in audio. And in a good way. I think ;)

This band has a truly massive sound, skirting the edges of epic funeral doom, but they are very much their own thing. The bass and drums are uncompromising throughout, but there's also an underlying groove to the bass and guitar that means it's more than just a (glorious) wall of noise.

As for the vocals, Rikke List is one of my new favourite vocalists; it's deep and fierce and powerful, and listening to her reminds me of the first time I ever heard Angela Gossow.

Finally, some of the tracks (particularly Harena, the album's closing track) have that certain something that gives me a shiver when I listen to it.

Also, guest cello (and violin) by Feliz Havstad (more doom + cello? I'm starting to think I have a taste :D )

You might like this if you are a fan of:

Ahab, Bolt Thrower, Cult of Luna, Yob

Lyrics such as:

The will is just a grain of dust The will is just a grain of dust But I find that when whirlpools replace the grasp of desert storms Then each grain of sand is just as clear as day, how it forms! Eyes on the horizon, I stand right where I fell And here she comes, the shining orb I know so well

Don't just take my word for it:

Carcharadon from Angry Metal Guy thinks highly of the album;

Toilet ov Hell has an interview, and thought the album was great;

Revolver magazine talk with the band about some of their influences;

Standout tracks:

Pipe Dreams, Never Rest, Grains, Harena

Where can I find it?

Youtube;

Bandcamp;

Napalm Records;

And, Spotify;

Best of 2022 - Albums

What a boring year it was. No big surprises, nothing out of the blue, only a few perfect records. 

01. Rosalia - Motomami - “The Spanish singer’s third album delivers gem after gem, as flamenco rhythms rub shoulders with sassy party flexes.” The Observer

02. Tove Lo - Dirt Femme

03. The Smile - A Light of Attracting Attention

04. Walt Disco - Unlearning - Definitely not for everyone. “Flamboyant goth-glam that doesn’t care what the boomers think.” NME

05. Tamino - Sahar

06. Marian Hill - Why Can’t Be Just Pretend?

07. Marlon Williams - My Boy

08. The Wombats - Fix Yourself, Not The World

09. Joywave - Cleanse

10. Charlotte Adigéry & Bolis Pupul - Topical Dancer

11. Nilüfer Yanya - Painless

12. The Fear Ratio - Slinky

13. Wojciech Rusin - Syphon

14. Lyndsey Lawlor - Dearest Philistine

15. Honey Dijon - Black Girl Magic

16. Moin - Paste - “Moin’s approach on Paste is barebones, but discerning – taking a craft knife to 80s and 90s indie music and using it to fashion their most fleshed-out release yet. “ The Guardian

17. Belle and Sebastian - A Bit of Previous

18. Florence + The Machines - Dance Fever

19. Moderat - More D4ta

20. Fontaines D.C. - Skinty Fia

21. Jockstrap - I Love You, Jennifer B

22. MO - Motordrome

23. Virgil Enzinger + Submerge - At The End

24. Ange Halliwell - Lullaby For The Dead

25. Everything Everything - Raw Data Feel

26. Röyksopp - Profound Mysteries - All versions are the same. Mostly great songs + few you can easily skip. Would be a great record if they could release the strongest songs on one record. 

27. Caterina Barbieri - Spirit Exit -  “For music that evokes empty clubs and shuttered churches, built on patterns dictated by a “mechanical fortune teller,” its humanity is its most haunting quality.” Pitchfork

28. Badawi - The Book of Jinn + The War of Art

29. Mykki Blanco - Stay Close to Music

30. Rival Consoles - El Caso Figo

31. Archive - Call to Arms and Angels - “What is so impressive about these songs – all of them, not just the lengthy ones – is the daring and almost fearless way with which they progress. Archive aren’t afraid to have hugely infectious would-be mainstream hits such as ‘Freedom’ collapse inward on themselves. They’re also not shy about dangling the carrot in front of their crescendo-expectant audience only to have things fade out to the gorgeous trickle of a classical piano. In the same token, there are moments when you think you’ve floated into a quiet pasture for respite when Archive will suddenly whip out the electric guitars and flood that space with noise. The transitions can be jarring but tend not to be, as Call To Arms & Angels feels less like a puzzle held together by separate pieces and more like a painting in which the different colors bleed together to form a beautiful image. It all feels interrelated, the product of a bold, creative, and eclectic vision that’s been executed to perfection.” Sputnik Music

32. Bodi Bill - I Love You, I Do

33. Get Well Soon - Amen

34. Methyl Ethel - Are You Haunted?

35. Working Men’s Club - Fear Fear - “The album tells its own superbly structured story, bathing in synthesis and heavily grounded in the contexts of lockdown, while allowing these very contexts to steer the process beyond angst and towards a utopian catharsis.” Clash

36. Stabbing Westward - Chasing Ghosts - “Stabbing Westward fans will get everything they love about the band and fair weathered fans might just be won over with this album. An absolute must buy for your industrial rock collection.” Spill Magazine

37. Hot Chip - Freakout/Release

38. Daniel Avery - Ultra Truth

39. Spoon - Lucifer on the Sofa

40. Benjamin Clementine - And I Have Been

41. Purity Ring - Graves

42. Ben Shemie - Desiderata - “Shemie has described Desiderata as "a soundtrack to a movie that doesn't exist." While this statement rings true (opener "The Departure" could have fit nicely on the score to Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey), it's also a bit of a disservice to the album.” Exclaim!

43. Local Suicide - Eros Anikate 

44. Deliluh - Fault Lines

45. u-Ziq - Magic Pony Ride

46. Ovend - Rush

47. Maggie Koerner - The Bartholomew Songs

48. FKA twigs - Caprisongs - “In a discography filled with experimental pop played at an overwhelming intensity, Caprisongs offers both a feeling of playfulness and self-assurance.” The Young Folks

49. Beyonce - Renaissance

50. Subjective - The Start of No Regret - “Goldie takes a breezy trip through various avenues of electronic music with this real goodie bag of an album that’s focused, well-produced, and great fun.” Music OHM

March 13, 2023 -  Monday | 83/89 of Winter

A rainy rainy day ☔️ it’s been a long time since I was out in the rain for this long. Being by the waterside in such gloomy weather after so long immediately reminded me of my high school days, since my school had also been near the river. Today I overbooked myself but somehow managed to complete everything 🙌🏽 was super exhausted afterward tho 🤧 but felt so alive.

best by Gracie Abrams is so ‘I know I hurt you but please can you try to move on without me cause I'll do more harm than good by talking to you again’ and ‘its so justified that you hate me because I wasn’t the best to you ever, not even a little bit’ and ‘I forgot decency when I was with you and realised what I was doing but I still chose to do it because all I ever fucking thought was: good riddance when you left’ and ‘you stuck around through all of my shit even when I was the absolute worst but I never was there for your dark sides and Im sorry’ and wow do I need to go find a therapist
