You should, like, type "Jlin" into Google of Spotify
She's basically the best thing to happen to footwork since Dj Radhad. Partially because she rather coyly subverts the genre, while also pretty much embodying it. One of the few records of the year that's I feel is truly worthy of being called "great."

I guess I'd probably agree w/ 2010's being their worst decade. Though I did like the Heady Fwends album. And I know you hated the SGT Pepper, but I did really like it a lot. I actually pulled The Terror out last night with the intention of giving it another spin soon. I haven't even listened to it since it first came out. Wasn't a fan then. But I figured that I've warmed up to Oczy so maybe I should try again.

I like Heady Fwends too. When it came out (actually, before it properly came out -- back when it was just a smattering of mini-EPs released on fetuses and stuff) I was jamming those songs like crazy. The "album" that eventually compiled the best of those releases was a smart move for them. And a strong and cohesive record.
I liked The Terror too, but it was pretty goddamn sad. It was aiming my favorite albums of 2013, probably pretty high on the list at the time, but I think in retrospect I prefer the albums by Fuck Buttons and Botany (as well as Yeezus and Dj Koze's Amygdala) to it. I haven't listened to it since late 2013.
I think there's some underrated awesomeness going on in the Lips' production on these past few releases, but there isn't quite enough solid song craft to hold my attention.
