WET LEG
Wet Leg
2022 Europe pressing

This was hands down my favorite album of 2022, and it wasn’t particularly close.
Such an endlessly playable and infectious masterpiece from two very talented women from the Isle Of Wight, UK.
It is a very modern record, yes, but it also summons up the spirit of some artsy late 70s and early 80s punk and new wave.
If you haven’t gotten on this yet, you absolutely need to.

Some favorite songs from 2022. I keep my playlists updated as best I can on both Spotify and Apple called ‘cheffe Best of 2022’. Might not be exactly the same. I’ve done the playlists for the last several years. There is so much music out there and I love to hear what others listen to. #newmusic #bestof2022 #2022music #songoftheday #cheffesongoftheday Apple first: https://music.apple.com/us/playlist/best-of-2022/pl.u-RrA9VF294Z6

2022 was a kick in the teeth and I'm not sad to see it go. One of the few highlights was this collaboration we did with the Ukrainian band Nameless 🇺🇦 in April. It's truly a beautiful song and we were honored to be a part of it 💙

Album of the year

Soccer Mommy -- Sometimes, Forever

Sometimes, Forever is such a good album. Tension filled lyrics with loads of great imagery, and one well earned melody after another. Who knew bleak could ever sound to good.

"So I wanna drive out for where the sun shines
Drown out the noise and the way I feel
But even the light is so temporary
And I see the dark at the back of my heels"

The Burning Hell - Garbage Island

I first saw the Burning Hell back in 2017 in a packed wooden hut in Locharon with about 18 other people. I was impressed. Here's the best crossover ornithology/apocalypse rock album ever made, and probably my most listed album of 2022.

Kokoroko - Could We Be More

I shit on algorithmic music discovery a lot but I definitely discovered Kokoroko thanks to Youtube recommendation sometime in 2018. This long awaited album is everything we all hoped it would be.

(As much as it pains me to include a London band in place of a Manchester band in a top 5 of anything :-)

The Slackers - Don't Let The Sunlight Fool Ya

I've been a Slackers fan since I was maybe 15. Their songwriting and their sound are both hugely influential on Vladimir Chicken music. This record is band on top form in 2022.

Klawo - Klawo

I can't stress how great Bandcamp Daily is for discovering new music recommended by real people. There are several gems in their "New Vanguard of Polish Jazz" article, the one that ended up on repeat is this one:
