Hammock
Kenotic

Hammock sounds like Cocteau Twins without the vocals. Yeah, I know that's a pretty facile description, and it's not quite accurate. For one thing, there are some vocals in this and other Hammock releases. And for another, the only thing that really sounds like Cocteau Twins without the vocals is...Cocteau Twins when Liz isn't singing. (Check out Robin Guthrie's solo albums too.)

But the ambient wash of fuzzed-out guitars (as if the shoegazers of the '90s had taken too many Quaaludes) is kind of nice. Perfect on a morning after too much alcohol the night before. (I swear I only had...six drinks.) Anyway, it's rare you get serendipity when you listen to music in an artificially rigid order, but, hey, it happens.
