15 MORE Albums You Should Listen To Right Now
yvan sanchez

I have decided to write a second installment of my “ 15 Albums You Should Listen To Right Now ,” as I have found a lot more that I think everyone could enjoy. Again, these are in no particular order. So, plug your headphones in and begin the journey below...

1. “Pornography” by The Cure

Despite its rather mature title, Pornography is hailed as one of the best goth albums in existence. With guitar washes, strings and synth alike paired with Robert Smith’s dreamlike voice, “Pornography” is sure to give anyone an amazing listening experience. It’s also one of my favourite albums of all time as well. Favourite track: “Siamese Twins.”

2. “The Resistance” by Muse

Featuring a three movement orchestral symphony at the end, Muse delivers one of the best albums of the late 2000’s. Favourite track: “MK Ultra.”

3. “Bad Blood” by Bastille

The critically acclaimed debut album features songs like “Pompeii” and “Laura Palmer,” which actually got me into one of my favourite shows: “Twin Peaks.” Favourite track: “Laughter Lines (Bonus Track).”

4. “Prom King” by Skylar Spence

From the artist formerly known as Saint Pepsi, Prom King delivers the sound we’ve grown to love from him. Favourite track: “Affairs.”

5. “Darling of the Afterglow” by Lydia Ainsworth

If you like Banks, you’ll love Lydia Ainsworth. I love the stacked vocals accompanied with synth. Favourite track: “The Road.”

6. “Policy” by Will Butler

Though he is known as an essential part of Arcade Fire, Will Butler’s debut solo album is not much of a departure from the sound you’re used to from Arcade Fire. Favourite track: “Finish What I Started.”

7. “I See You” by The xx

The fourth album from the British trio, I See You is sure to delight all who are fans of The xx’s previous work. Favourite track: “I Dare You.”

8. “Melodrama” by Lorde

Though not set to be released until mid-June, I know it’s going to be good. As of what I can hear from the singles released, it’s going to be the ultimate summer album. Favourite track (as of now): “Green Light.”

9. “The Stranger” by Billy Joel

Hailed as his finest studio album, Billy Joel never failed to deliver classic after classic. Favourite track: “Scenes from an Italian Restaurant.”

10. “Vices & Virtues” by Panic! At the Disco

One of my favourite bands, the Las Vegas duo were back (at the time) with a steampunk look and a set of 10 songs sure to please the ears of many. Favourite track: “Trade Mistakes.”

11. “Hunky Dory” by David Bowie

My second favourite album from the late British singer, Hunky Dory is the 70’s pop album. With ballads and rockers alike, it has never sounded a day old. Favourite track: “The Bewlay Brothers.”

12. “Burning from the Inside” by Bauhaus

Another of the “perfect” goth albums, Burning from the Inside features dreary vocals over guitars and the perfect beat every time. Favourite track: “She’s in Parties.”

13. “Art Angels” by Grimes

Though having a more refined pop sound, Grimes stays true to her roots on Art Angels. Favourite track: “Kill V. Maim”

14. “Crystal Castles (III)” by Crystal Castles

Having a darker, more connected tone than the previous two albums, the third self-titled album from Crystal Castles has never failed to amaze my ears. Favourite track: "Affection."

15. “A Night at the Opera” by Queen

Featuring the groundbreaking hit “Bohemian Rhapsody,” this 1975 classic does not leave much to be desired. A classic, generation after generation. Favourite track: “Love of My Life.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
