3 albums I haven’t really listened too enough yet but they sounded pretty good and also the titles are styled in all-caps for some reason

• Billie Eilish - WHEN WE ALL FALL ASLEEP, WHERE DO WE GO?
• FKA twigs – MAGDALENE
• Holly Herndon – PROTO
• I swear I didn’t look at the Pitchfork 2019 list first haha

1 album that was sort of good but I never really got into it and I think I’d always prefer to listen to his previous ones

• Bon Iver – i,i

3 interesting books

• Aaron Bastani – Fully Automated Luxury Communism (wide-eyed to a fault, but honestly we could do with a bit of optimism)
• Grace Blakeley – Stolen: How to Save the World from Financialisation
• Paul Mason – Clear Bright Future (as ever with Mason can’t agree with everything but still good)
• maybe a couple of others but my books are still packed and i can’t remember
