re: Top 10 Favorite Tracks of 2014 (so far)

It's hard to say and I really haven't kept up as well this year as in the past. I'd say I've probably really listened to (more than once or twice) 15-20 new releases so far this year. I'm always discovering old stuff in addition to that as well.

I'm the same way. When I listen to a band I like that's been around for a while, I try to back-listen to all their stuff. For example, the first Spoon album I ever heard was Transference in 2010. I loved it and decided to go back and listen to all their albums, and now they're one of my very favorite bands. So, such projects can be worthwhile, and I usually find myself trying to strike a balance between listening to new stuff, and taking a band-at-a-time approach.

I have a friend -- [link=(he has a music blog)]https://www.bdogsmusicblog.com/[/link] -- who probably listens to 10 albums a month without breaking a sweat. He works for a record company, though, so music is sort of his job.
