what is everyone digging from 2016? So far I am into the new Tortoise album and this band i've been into since their 2nd album, Orannsi Pazuzu (really tripped out pink floydish black metal for no other way to describe it). another heavy EP that just dropped this year was a new Krallice release, some of their best material yet. also since it is still early in the year i am thinking a lot about what came out last year.

here is the first of my best of 2015 lists http://8tracks.com/baba-deep/2015-shoegaze-noiserock

if there's a song on that playlist then i thought the whole album was really superb. this is just my favorite shoegaze or similarly styled genres. gotta make another one for electronic/experimental and of course a heavy metal playlist.

anyways, there is a ton of great albums on the way this year, always fun to hear new ones

I'm eagerly awaiting the new album from Black Peaks and I got very excited to hear there is a new The Field LP on the way... and Deftones.. and maybe even Nine Inch Nails... Its a good time to be me.

Currently on rotation I have lots of Bowie (for Bowie reasons, plus its ace, particularly Heroes, Lodger and Earthling) and have also been spinning the new album by The Black Queen, which is synth pop with Josh Eustis producing and Greg from Dillenger Escape Plan on vox. Its yummy.

I'm seeing a new opera/multimedia piece in a week or two, by Anthony Pateras, Natasha Anderson, Sabina Maselli, and Erkki Veltheim.

I'll see what else comes around this year.

I'm always interested to hear what direction Reznor takes NIN. my favorites remain in the 90s, and the ghosts series. i don't hate the 21st century material, it's just underwhelming compared to the other stuff i mentioned.

looking forward to the new Teen Suicide. Lord Raja's PARA is probably my favorite release of the year thus far though.

Great thread!  Bookmarking everyone's links and will check it out soon.

DJ Paypal's SOLD OUT inspired my most recent track, as I was lucky enough to see him live in Chicago a few weeks ago.

Go Finland!

I havent really heard too much new music this year, but been listening a lot of band called Teksti-TV 666, they do psychedelic rock with good amounts of punk and krautrock stuff thrown in. Heres their new song.

idk if these are up anyone's alley, but TV Girl and Alpenglow just dropped new albums today and they're stellar and I highly recommend them!

been on a black metal kick to end the winter, after reading 50 states of black metal article. found a few really good ones from the US... the best of the midwest where i'm from is called aevangelist. really evil sounding shit, not formulaic either. a few other ones like ange de la mort and yellow eyes.
