Next up on my, "it's grey outside" music selection - Slowdive's self-titled album. One of the best come-back records of recent memory. Will it make my 2017 top twenty? Absolutely! But where?

Standard!

Drizzly Rain and grey skies calls for a little Murray St. - one of my favourite SY LPs.

A little, Karen Revisited reverberating around the house is pure bliss...

Genius rhythm guitarist. The monster thrash riffs he created on two strings were a major part of Sepultura's sound. Hence why they never sounded the same after the Cavalera brothers left.
