I'm about to run the gauntlet in June. Can I do it without catching the airborne pandemic?
The theme for June is air, gas, aerosol, breath, etc. Two nominations each, poll goes up late next week.

I am probably working on a stress ulcer or something, so let's try some of that yacht rock the kids talk about to cool off: Seals and Crofts, "Summer Breeze". Maybe that will get me to relax.

Let's try Handsome Family again since the "local bands" month last year didn't go for it:
Through the Trees (1998)
"This is why people OD on pills
And jump from the Golden Gate Bridge
Anything to feel weightless again"

Ooo ooo ooo, I actually have two I really like for this one. I look forward to getting no votes.
Astronoid - Air (2016) - One of my favorite records of all time. "Pretty" blackgaze, with singing, not screaming. Track to convince you: "Up and Atom"
Voices - London (2014) - One of my favorite records of all time. Super pretentious and weird-as-fuck prog-black metal concept album. Track to convince you: "Music for the Recently Bereaved"

Pending one more negative Covid test, I'll be hitting the road down to Galveston very early tomorrow morning and won't be checking the TIF for about a week. If I may, I'd like to submit my votes in advance. I vote for:
Florence + the Machine
Astronoid
Voices
(Deej, I really almost went of Oxygen Destroyer for the sheer lunacy of it, but I genuinely like that Florence + the Machine record.)
