  • At long last, here's part two of the three part video series: my favorite albums of the 2010's. In this video, I talk about albums No. 20 - 11 on the list. For those of you invested in the series, thank you for your patience as I had a lot going on "IRL" (in real life) that got in the way of editing this one.
    Let me know below how you feel about these albums, if any of them mean as much to you as they do to me! I look forward to continuing on this list and talking about the rest of my favorite albums of the last decade. Enjoy!
    Building on the playlist from the first video, here's the link to a playlist of all the songs featured from these albums (now at a total of 40 tracks): • Japandroids - The Hous...

    Nice to hear that you're undertaking the "1001 albums you must hear before you die" one album a day project too! I've generated about 450ish albums so far and it's been a lot of fun discovering new music and genres that I haven't explored very deeply before, as well as revisiting some of my favourite records. Would love for you to do a video on some of the albums that you've reviewed for it :)

    Dude, there's just something special about Angels & Airwaves. Listened to them 24/7 through middle school and high school. You mentioned them being "aspirational" and that's a perfect description.
    Hopefully this doesn't sound too ostentatious, but their music (really the first 3 albums) gives me this feeling of aspiring to the future and reflecting on the past.
    Also, Atom Willard is an absolute animal on the drums. Their sound hasn't been the same since his departure.

    • @ruffcriminal
      @ruffcriminal  8 місяців тому +2

      Absolutely, I honestly think perceptions of their music have a lot to do with whether you heard their music in middle/high school! Also completely agree about Atom

    I also love Japandroids! especially Continuous Thunder off of that same album. For me, they occupy a really similar space as The Hold Steady (with whom they toured in I think 2017 and are my absolute favorite band), Les Savy Fav, Gang of Youths, etc. in that they just exude positivity and for lack of a better phrase, they rock!

    So nice to see some love for Japandroids, clearly one of the bands that shape my 2010s, musically and personally, with their three albums (the 2009 debut is also excellent). You nailed the description, truly one of the most anthemic records of the decade (if not ever tbh), between euphoria and nostalgia. Also insane energy considering it's just two guys, live they were epic.
    Yeah it was acclaimed back then but I feel many have forgotten about the band nowadays, perhaps because the follow-up "Near to the Wild Heart of Life" wasn't nearly as good (but still pretty solid) and also because they haven't released anything in a while... 6 years damn, I hope to get some news in 2024.
    Also that Bon Iver is really sublime, most definitely in my top 10.

    Ruff! Love the continuation of the list. Some real good ones on here. Acid Rap is a must, with my favorite track being Chain Smoker. Yes Lawd is another must include. Bon Iver is a great pick, but I'm curious to here your thoughts on their 22 a Million. I hated it at first, but I played it a few more times and it opened my eyes. It was like a near spiritual experience.

    Man, I've only gotten into Mac Demarco recently (in the last year or so), but I have such incredibly mixed feelings about This Old Dog. Not for any reasons you might think, and absolutely no fault of Mac's own.
    **trigger warning: mass shootings, sensitive content in general**
    I really love This Old Dog, actually. It's very fun and chill to listen to on a surface level, and like Ruff mentioned, I really appreciate the touching themes of aging and change when you listen to the lyrics. My only real hang-up, however, is discovering that the Parkland shooter was listening to this album in full as he took the lives of so many. This is obviously no indictment of anybody who listens to This Old Dog, and it goes without saying that Mac isn't responsible for the atrocities committed to it. It's just that while I didn't go to Stoneman Douglas at the time, one of my teachers lost her husband in that shooting. I knew none of the victims personally, but many of my friends lost people that day. I watched my teacher and her son have to process the fact that their husband and father was stolen from them by senseless violence. The album itself has no reason to be affected, but it'll always be tainted with deep pain and melancholy for me. It's hard for me to think of it as something other than the soundtrack to one of the worst days in my community's history, which sucks because it's such a great album.
    Sorry if this was essentially trauma dumping, I'm happy to remove it if you think I should!!! I just felt like sharing my thoughts, so I really do apologize if this wasn't the time or place to do it :')

    • @ruffcriminal
      @ruffcriminal  8 місяців тому +2

      No apology necessary, thanks for sharing. Really horrible to hear that, I had no idea. Like you said, no indictment of the music, but completely understand why it would give you pause. I can’t imagine that anyone with that kind of malice or evil in their heart really appreciates art anyway, they don’t deserve it.
