11. Chad VanGaalen


11. Chad VanGaalen - Shrink Dust

There are a few artists out there that resonate on a level that no one else does. It feels like "This is my music". I don't really know how else to describe it. Chad VanGaalen is one of those artists, and so is the artist that got number one spot on this blog. He is a Canadian singer/songwriter and was mentioned earlier in this blog as a producer, here. His lyrics are weird and wonderful, deeply soulful and jangly all at the same time. He records everything at home and considers this his country album. It's certainly well put together and still has some of his characteristic 60's pop/folk intertwined throughout. Diaper Island and Soft Moon were excellent albums as well, but this one has something more put together than the previous two. He animates all his own videos and is quite the artist as well.
