So, IN ORDER, please list your favorite however many albums of the year so far. You may provide a brief explanation.

1. tUnE-yArDs - W H O K I L L: Saw Merrill perform live two years ago at a music festival and loved it, but never followed up on her at all. She was just totally immersed in her music and art, with crazy face paint and feathers in her hair and just totally in it. She has created something that is wholly original and all her own. She is everything that is great and pure about music and I love her.

2. Destroyer - Kaputt: Love Destroyer for the same reasons. He is just the man, and will do whatever the eff he wants. No matter what crazy direction he decides to take his albums, they always seem to get better.

3. Fleet Foxes - Helplessness Blues: Beautiful, personal music. Great for driving around in beautiful weather, which might be my favorite thing to do.

4. Panda Bear - Tomboy: Not much else to say here. Thought it was super underrated from most critics..I actually enjoy listening to it more than Person Pitch.

5. Bon Iver - Bon Iver: Soooo chillll. Love how it all fits together, and <3 the last song.
