Post your AOTY charts, collages, 5x5s, 4x4s, 3x3s, or just your singular AOTY So Far.
Discuss / rec / rate / have fun and don't kill yourself until I say you can.
Nothing substantial worth mentioning yet really. Hoping Ulver, Gas, or Toby Driver change this.

>>71713496
bruh
honestly this year isn't really interesting so far but for now this is my top 3
1. Power Trip - Nightmare Logic
2. Angles 9 - Disappeared Behind the Sun
3. King Gizzard - Flying Microtonal Banana
This year is finally starting to warm up a bit
>>71713554
>Real Estate
>Bonobo
>Priests
>Dot Hacker
Aside from Priests (which is pretty ok all things considered), that is some run-of-the-mill p4k approved insipid music. I'm not going to overly explain myself, it's not like I listened to them in full detail since they don't hold my attention at all and I've heard that same ol' stuff many times before. Real Estate is as boring as they ever were, and believe me, I like indie rock and jangle pop. I think you could delve deeper and find WAY better stuff.
>>71713433
Really? How's the sound of the record??

>comeback albums
the one by Jesus and Mary Chain doesn't hold a candle to anything they have released before. Fingers crossed for Slowdive however.
>>71713683
fair 2bh - the real estate is as predictable and forgettable as always but it's comfy. i do rly like priests and dot hacker tho
>>71713703

Will post an updated edition of my chart in a bit. I don't have access to it rn.
Still waiting on the new Heretoir, Drug Honkey, Al Namrood, The Bug c& Earth (possible aoty contender), Phuture Doom, Slugabed, Succumb, Liquid Assassin, Heavy Metal Kings, Sadistik, GAS, Red Pill, Arca, Sixo, Doseone and Braveyoung.
Anything else coming out this year you guys are hyped for?
>>71717595
Yeah, I fucked up
top 10 so far
1. King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard - Flying Microtonal Banana
2. Pillorian - Obsidian Arc
3. Thundercat - Drunk
4. Kairon; IRSE! - Ruination
5. Ron Gallo - Heavy Meta
6. Spoon - Hot Thoughts
7. Foxygen - Hang
8. Paul White - Everything You've Forgotten
9. Father John Misty - Pure Comedy
10. The Orwells - Terrible Human Beings
1-7 are all solid 8/10s or higher, the other 3 albums probably won't be in this top 10 for much longer. I haven't heard the new Mount Eerie yet, waiting for the right moment to finally experience it.
>>71717917
Alright. Fixed it up. Still not AOTY. Bedwetter was good, but it could've used more vocal tracks imo.
>>71713075

HM to Amnesia Scanner, Sampha, and Cloud Nothings.
