8. Song: Late Night , Artist: Belong , Album: Colorloss Record (St. Ives)
  • Limited four-track 12"/digitial-only EP of covers from New Orleans ambient/shoegaze/post-rock duo Belong, who added their own vocals. Not that it matters, though, because they're buried too far down in the mix to be recognizable. Case in point: "Late Night", a cover of Syd Barrett (Pink Floyd). The other three cuts follow a similar late '60s UK vibe: "Beeside" (Tintern Abbey), "Girl from New York" (Billy Nicholls), and "My Clown" (July).
9. Song: Ossification , Artist: Nadja , Album: Bodycage (Profound Lore)
