sean [Edit] [Delete] 55 replies 10:44 December 2nd, 2012

Same rules as the albums list ( http://drownedinsound.com/community/boards/music/4421077 ) , but makes it easier for those who wanted to include things which aren't full-length albums

1. Phtantogram - Nightlife
2. Burial - Kindred
3. Halls - Fragile
4. Antlers - Undersea
5. The Kills - The Last Goodbye

- was it? 8 songs is an album, non?
  
  sean @SCROTUM | 2 Dec '12, 10:58 | X | ^ This | Reply
  - yeah, I'm pretty sure it was
    
    the official press release titled it 'Exercises EP' and subsequently loads of reviews credited it as such. but yeah, 8 tracks and close to 30m...it's contentious. much like Mac DeMarco

- ^All of these are strangely brilliant
  
  I’ve scarcely listened to anything else since discovering that Each Other EP.
  http://eachotherssongs.bandcamp.com/
  
  Sswampzz is another that really deserves its own thread, preferably one posted by a less lazy and hungover man than myself. It sounds now how Johnny Foreigner sounded when I was 17, ie. totally mind- and eardrum-blowingly addictive and joyful.

Does Evain Christ count? if not then Haleek Maul - Oxyconteen.

Hope this actually gets followed up and a lot of people do it, I think I've loved more EPs this year than albums

- If it counts then fuck yeah Evian Christ.
  
  Does White Math by Blanck Mass count? That too.

1. Humans - Trap (they call it an EP it's 7 tracks +2 remixes though)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mvWglFmCUmc

5. Why? - sod in the seed
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U7yci4ib_z0

s/s/s just misses out because although i've aclimatised to it, putting vocoder on sujan stevens voice on the first track is a bit of a criminal act

1. Errors - New Relics

...haven't heard any other EPs this year. Although for the record, New Relics is considerably better than the DiS review suggests.

two for you

WIFE's 'Stoic' is still on repeat in our studio and has been for months. Absolutely incredible. Also 'Modern Driveway' by Luke Abbott.

- Burial will obviously win
  
  But this Katy B release and the new FOTL 5 track EP are both great and some of the artists' best work to date.
