Got a few of your favourites, and here's my first impressions after one or two listens:
Angel Olsen -- impressive, and liked it even more second time round
Sun Kil Moon -- have been meaning to encounter Kozelek for a while, and glad I have; only one listen, but very much like
Real Estate -- only...
RE Fire Orchestra!, is it Exit! (released 2013) that's on your list, or Enter! (released July 14th 2014) that you're referring to?
I shall have to get both, especially as Fire!'s Without Noticing (released 2013, but first heard by me in 2014) is one of the best albums I've heard in years.
1 Swans
2 Neneh Cherry
for me, which is a sign that I don't buy/listen to much, but also that this hasn't been a stellar half-year.
I'm not that keen on that War on Drugs album, but can you describe Angel Olsen and Real Estate?
