WHO: Teenage Fanclub
WHAT: Nothing Lasts Forever
WHY: Sometimes, things fall through the cracks. Last year, it was Nothing Lasts Forever. I had heard it, and enjoyed it, but it took a while to click. By the time that happened, we were already in 2024. If I were to tell you that Teenage Fanclub is a California band, you’d believe me. But I’d be incredibly wrong. Try across the pond and way north. They’re not even close to being teenage! There’s something about the cold climate that makes these easy, breezy, harmonious, and beachy sounding songs even more charming. Nothing Lasts Forever is both calming and soothing and serves to beautify any experience. Undoubtedly one of the best albums of last year.
