Lots of great songs from a ton of releases this year, but not many albums that I consistently liked.

The Animal Collective, Cristian Vogel, and Nicholas Desamory releases are probably the only three that I truly enjoyed all the way through.

>>69988698
Weval is excellent, good pick

>>69988717
It had some dud songwriting here and there, but the production was really quite good. The highs were definitely serious highs.

>>69988326
Some things are popular for a reason you know.

hi dad

>>69988326
>this
like why even have this music board if it's gonna be the same standard well publicised "indie" crap every year.

>>69988400
sure hope so, the elitism was the only thing that stopped this plebby fucking taste from being posted.

>>69990850
because those well publicised ((indie)) albums usually end up being the best releases in a given year. hence why they are publicised

if you want to start a thread called top 10 albums of the year not promoted by pitchfork then go ahead, maybe you'll get some interesting recs there

>>69990923
>thats all you listen to tho
how you know that OP isn't listening to super super underground shit that noone's heard of but just picked these albums because he enjoys them the most, hence why they're the most publicized?

Actually I made this picture around a month ago so I'd happily add LAM - LAM which is a cool jazzy improvised ambient album.

Off the top of my head, these are the other albums I listened to this year that were not good enough to put in a top five.

Steven Wilson - 4 1/2
Meshuggah - The Violent Sleep of Reason
The Dear Hunter - Act V
meta meta - mm3
Oathbreaker - rheia
Schammasch - triangle
Haken - affinity
Devin Townsend - Transcendence
Ihsahn - arktis

>>69990958
I tagged the wrong picture
although that could be a possiblity, in reality it's much more likely what I posted is true, if you were to listen to "super underground shit" at least 1 would eventually pop up in your top charts, but nope, same ""indie"" crap as always.

>>69989694
Very similar to mine desu, Add UU, Danny Brown, and Painting With

Scallops Hotel, haven't seen that on any lists, nice taste

With Kishi Bashi's Sonderlust as runner-up

>>69988259
Blonde is my only Aoty.

tim hecker - love streams
jenny hval - blood bitch
crying - beyond the fleeting gales

only stuff I've listened to i've liked this year

any recommendations based off of this? more obscure stuff as I've listened to most of the /mu/ hyped stuff and not liked it

Tobacco - Sweatbox Dynasty
Black Moth Super Rainbow - Seefu Lilac
Kaytranada - 99.9%
Weval - Weval
Blood Orange - Freetown Sound

I struggled after the first few desu, 2016 wasn't a good year for music besides Tom Fec

>>69991628
*obscure stuff from this year

>>69991628
have you heard Ben Frosts new opera record? Weird as fuck and the lyrics are kinda cringe at first but it's really nice if you get used to it

i cannot get over how many people are noting RTJ3 and AMSR in their lists, they were really really bland and boring imo

first songs on both albums are the best ones even

What the fuck guys angel olsen new lp is garbage

>>69991628
Strands - Steve Hauschildt
Works - Abul Mogard
Aktuel Music - Kyo
AND THE HIGHLIGHT -
CONTINUUM - PAUL JEBANASAM

I didn't enjoy Kishi Bashi's new record. I've been enjoying all his releases so far but the new one feels lackluster. It has a few great tracks but the rest don't engage me the same way any track from Lighght would. Why'd you like it so much?

yeah but the fact that they're unaltered and sung the way they are makes them cringe if you're unfamiliar with opera.
