Top 40 For 12.01.11
Thursday, December 1st, 2011 by Eric Loose
Doesn’t it feel like Christmas comes just a little bit earlier either year? If this really is the case, consider me a proponent of the phenomenon. Although this is not the place to come for all your Christmas music needs (try the Top 20, playing at Boulder on Friday for some select X-mas spirited tracks!), WLOY is here to provide a soundtrack of our favorite 40 albums of the past few weeks for your studying-during-finals needs… enjoy!

Top 40 For 11.17.11
Thursday, November 17th, 2011 by Eric Loose
With the obvious approaching holiday of Thanksgiving (made even more obvious by the image of what I’m expecting next week, to the left), it’s time to take account of what we’re thankful for! Put into “Top 40″ terms, we’re especially thankful for top-of-the-pack-still M83, as well as Baltimorians Future Islands, and newcomers to the list like St. Vincent and Tom Waits! So hopefully you can be thankful for these superb releases as well, and remember to tune into WLOY before all that tryptophan hits! (more…)

Top 40 For 10.27.11
Thursday, October 27th, 2011 by Eric Loose
While you’re freezing in Baltimore (possible snow?!), make sure you tune into WLOY Loyola Radio 1620 AM Baltimore as they broadcast from Orlando, Florida, Universal Studios to remind you what sun feels like. It is “Halloween Horror Nights” at Universal Studios down there right now, and three of our FAVORITE employees are DJ-ing all weekend, so try to catch them! And when you’re not doing that, make sure you listen to the Top 40 Albums from this week, especially M83 (pictured left) because he’s our favorite. Thanks!

Top 40 For 10.20.11
Thursday, October 20th, 2011 by Eric Loose
WU LYF – which stands for World Unite Lucifer Youth Foundation – are the enigmatic, young Manchester-ites known as much for their crazy, beat-ridden brand of heavy pop music and incomprehensible, raspy vocals, as they are their unwillingness to talk to the press or reveal information about themselves. Intriguing, no? Sincerely mysterious or concocted as it may be, Go Tell Fire To The Mountain is still without a doubt one of the more powerful records this half of 2011. Give it a listen if you like the feeling of bouncing on clouds while a homeless man yells jibberish at you– it’s not too far off from that. (more…)
