Fresh Tunes of 2016: "Wildflower" by the Avalanches [album review]
2016 has hit the halfway mark with startling speed, but already we’ve been gifted some great albums by artists both old and new. Throughout the remainder of this year we'll be reviewing albums that any purveyors of tasty tunes out there would be remiss to skip. Check them out at your leisure, and let us know what you think.
The Avalanches - Wildflower
Sixteen years. Between their groundbreaking debut Since I Left You in 2000, and the release of Wildflower earlier this month, the world of music and beyond has changed. Many doubted that after such a long hiatus The Avalanches would ever release another album, let alone one of similar quality and sheer uniqueness.
Yet after all the delays and questions here we are with a new album, and it largely lives up to the considerable hype. Thousands of samples, everything from long forgotten movie dialogue to equally strange songs, are orchestrated together in a manner that gives a kaleidoscope of emotions for listeners to explore and enjoy.
Features from modern artists such as Toro y Moi, Danny Brown, and more appear here as well. Teetering between indie, hip hop, and something else entirely, this is an album to which you can either dance or dream. Nostalgia (particularly towards the 60s, 70s, and 90s), bliss, and sadness tinted with a healthy dose of psychedelia are somehow all swirled about into one cohesive sound, and it’s beautiful.
The first single "Frankie Sinatra" might scare off some initial listeners with its peculiar beat and carnivalesque tone, but within the album it flows much more naturally. The second and third singles("Colours" and "Subway" respectively), are more accessible as stand alones, but again this is an album that truly benefits from a straight play through. So get comfy, fire this baby up, and resist the urge to song hop as The Avalanches take you through another sonic sojourn as only they can.
Stand outs, in no particular order:
Because I’m Me • Subways • If I Was a Folkstar • The Noisy Easter • Harmony • Wozards of Iz • Sunshine

I have worked with Mr. James Mc Kay Wizard quite a number of times and they have never disappointed me. They helped me monitor my Husband phone when I was gathering evidence during the divorce. I got virtually every information he has been hiding over the months easily on my own phone: the spy app diverted all his WhatsApp, Facebook, text messages, sent and received through the phone: I also got his phone calls and deleted messages. he could not believe his eyes when he saw the evidence because he had no idea he was hacked. they do all types of mobile hacks and computer hacks, you get unrestricted and unnoticeable access to your partner/spouse/anybody’s social account, email, E.T.C Getting the job done is as simple as sending an email to jamesmckay wizard at gmail dot com or WhatsApp +31.. 65.. 744.6.2.4.8.

I am telling you today that DR.UMA cure HSV 2 with his herbal medicine and once you get cured you are cured forever it is never reversible, I have been suffering for this deadly disease called HSV 2 for more than 2years and I lost all hope because my doctor says there is no cure for HSV 2. Brethren I saw a testimony on the internet on how DR.UMA cure HSV, Hapatitis etc with his herbal medication and an email and watsapp to contact him was also displayed, I thought this was a joke but I decided to contact him and he replied telling me not to worry that my problem is over .
