This is just fantastic, one of the pioneers of synthpop, you can almost imagine it being made today as part of the chillwave movement.

Painted Palms - Canopy
This came out of nowhere and has got me amazingly addicted, like some sort of poppy Animal Collective with Teen Daze'y influence. Even better, it's free! Pick it up from their bandcamp

Small Black - New Chain
Not even sure what chillwave means anymore, either way, this is an absolutely fantastic album. Search Party is a must listen at the very least.

Crywank - James Is Going To Die Soon
The final version of his album just appeared, and it's really really good, I'd still recommend getting the demos as well though, there are some quite large changes between some songs on the demo and on the finished album which make it worthwhile to have both versions. Like a slightly more depressing Paul Baribeau.

Deerhunter - Halcyon Digest
Halcyon Digest
Absolutely amazing, totally agree that it does seem to be a more fleshed out and fully formed version of Atlas Sound (Bradford Cox's solo effort) than a direct continuation of previous Deerhunter albums, although there is a definite lineage.
if that wasn't all the explanation you needed you are beyond redemption.

The Mountain Goats - All Hail West Texas
Tied with The Magnetic Fields as one of the few artists where I am yet to find a song that I do not enjoy a crazy amount, given time I will probably end up putting up every one of their albums (definitely no easy task, given the quite literally absurd amount of releases by these two artists)
A truly fantastic album, filled with exceptional lyrics and perfectly constructed acoustic songs, definitely one of the best of its kind, I would seriously recommend giving this a listen, even if you aren't normally into this sort of thing.
Crywank - James Is Going To Die Soon Demos
Acoustic folk punk from a kid up in Manchester (not sure if I can really say that considering he is probably older than me.) Full of emotion and stuff, and he has a really great voice, I hope he gets a bit more popular and starts touring further south. Also he looks so much like someone I know and it amuses me to imagine that all along it was actually him creating these heartfelt songs.
