From the looks of this list, compared to other weeks, you'd think I was listening to albums nonstop all week. I kinda was, but in truth I was mostly playing the Eleanor Friedberger album over and over. In fact, the majority of these albums—everything from Lux through Air Museum—were played last Saturday, when I stole away to a coffeeshop for six hours or so to do a freelance job. I vacillated between ambient albums and rock albums in which the vocals are blurred, suppressed, or otherwise mostly indesipherable (bonus points also for when the songs are super repetitive).
