Ok, I can see colour now, vision is becoming sharper. But everything is so deterministic in this world I find myself in... 
I can only perceive the universe as it fits into this world view. Forced to take everything so literally even when I'm certain there's more to it than meets the eye (or ear)! 
If you're in the mood for some percussion. This does what it says on the tin...

Easy! A Tribe Called Quest any day for me... elite level lyricists all around. You have not heard hip-hop until you've listened to the low end theory...

My first for the day is the American release of the fifth Bee Gees album from 1968.

Oldest known song
“While you live, shine / Have no grief at all / Life exists only for a short while / And time demands its toll.”

No, Sir. It is coincidence. Just checked your mentioned post and still smiling. Not often, but at least from time to time we meet on the music!
Walking further through the new releases.
"It's rough-around-the-edges fun, with the warmth of familiarity and kinship that Neil Young & Crazy Horse have built by playing together for more than half a century." (AllMusic)
But hey, its Neil Young and Crazy Horse. Impossible to fail ;-)
So most likely you would not be disappointed. Or surprised.
And for those really interested in his musical (and yes, also his political) life this a good place https://neilyoungarchives.com/welcome. Sad he doesn't support any implementation.

Sadly, the word Fu#k (in all its forms, verb.,noun, etc) has probably become the most common word in American and British English. More often than not, it's used to cover for a lack of imagination and verbal fluency. My 2 euro cents worth.
With one week delay, promises from Leeds. It needed a few spins.
The familiar and the unusual go hand in hand with this young band from Leeds around singer Lily Fontaine: There are folk and prog-rock influences, at the same time a steady post-punk grounding. A songwriting that is in love with British pop traditions, but then repeatedly breaks into completely different paths (symptomatic: I'm Not Crying, You're Crying); you will find references to The Smiths as well as to some early experimental Radiohead albums. The lyrics of the charismatic singer are wonderfully British (I feel so, maybe a genuine British will have another look) rich in irony and precise observation. In Lewis Whiting the band has a guitarist who does not have to hide behind a Graham Coxon. Of course he plays a variety of..guess what? When looking into the British music press most of them agree that English Teacher is the band of the hour, with an LP that could hardly be further away from chart pop of any kind. Of course, it is one of the best and most original things I've heard in intelligent pop music lately. And I hope that this is the beginning of something big. A promise is this debut at all times.
