Thank you, Spotify

Spotify generates a playlist for me each Friday called "Release Radar," selecting new releases that it thinks I'd like based on what I've been listening to. Sometimes the algorithm is way off. But it's also introduced me to artists I've never heard of, and probably would never have heard of, since I don't listen to the radio much. I add some of the songs to a "Liked Songs" playlist for further listening. Some of them don't last for more than a could weeks before I unlike them. But some are great discoveries that prompted me to explore the bands a little more.

This week's discovery is a band called Reemer and I've had "Circles" on repeat.

This is a strange story. The UK band issued an album in 2008 and split up the next year. But it started recording singles again this year. "Circles" has things I like -- big singalong chorus aimed at the back of the arena over dense guitars.

Enjoy.
