Flavours of the month

Last week, after over a decade of waiting, Tool finally released their new studio album, and it's nothing short of a miracle. Obviously, the title track rules this month's list. Other guitar heroes are Big Thief, Iguana Death Cult, Bethlehem Steel, Alcest, and A. Swayze & the Ghosts. Several bands feature twice in this list: Elbow, Squid and Tropical Fuck Storm. We also have some pop, hip-hop, synthpop, ambient and jazz in the list, but rock music is definitely booming again. Enjoy the music & bless this immunity.
