Autumn is in full swing (although, I wish it were at least 15 degrees cooler outside), which means my rotation of albums to circle through is autumn to its core. So, let’s get straight into it and look at the albums I frequent during the fall time. Hopefully this list can give you some inspiration or remind you of an album you haven’t heard in a while.
- “Tapestry” — Carole King (1971)
- “Tender Buttons” — Broadcast (2005)
- “Any Other City” — Life Without Buildings (2001)
- “Figure 8” — Elliott Smith (2000)
- “Lesser Matters” — The Radio Dept. (2003)
- “The New Abnormal” — The Strokes (2020)
- “Just As I Am”— Bill Withers (1971)
- “Hypnic Jerks” — SPIRIT OF THE BEEHIVE (2018)
- “Emmerdale” — The Cardigans (1994)
- “Painted Shut” — Hop Along (2015)
- “songs” — Adrianne Lenker (2020)
- “Dark In Here” — The Mountain Goats (2021)
HONORABLE MENTIONS
- “Our Extended Play” — beabadoobee (2021)
- Unfortunately only four songs, so it’s not an album, but it’s so, so good.
- “Speak Now” — Taylor Swift (2010)
- Controversial to not list “Red,” but “Speak Now” (despite having a song called “Back To December” on it) is much more fall to me. An honorable mention because this probably isn’t up the alley of most WKNC listeners, but hey, you never know.
Happy listening,
Caitlin
