It's Bandcamp Friday today, and I'd love to see what other people have bought/will buy today.

Mainly just catching up on my fave records from this year, plus a few comps that sounded cool. I'm not done yet!

Nice! I know none of those, but I'll be checking them out!

I'm planning on getting these releases:

Andreas E.P. by Covenant: a tribute to their late live bandmember, who died from cancer last year.

Sunbirds, by Slowly Building Weapons: I found out about this screamo band through the !obscuremusic@piefed.social community.

Better Off Alone, by Oromet: I haven't listened to this yet, but Oromet brought out a funeral doom album a few years ago that blew me away, and they're working on new material. Meanwhile they've released a cover of an Alice Deejay song. Yep, a funeral doom cover of an Ibiza summer classic. I'm intruiged.

There are a few more releases I'm looking at, but these three are the ones I'm most excited about so far.

Just wanted to follow up, love that Slowly Building Weapons record, added to my wishlist for next BC Friday and subbed to the obscuremusic community. Thanks!

You're welcome! I've not had any time to do a deep dive into more music since the last BC Friday but I'm gonna go through your list when I can devote some proper listening time to it.
