>the one you want to win

go Painting With!!
>>72448508
>the one you want to win
Definitely King Gizzard - Nonagon Infinity. Although I haven't actually listened to a lot of the albums nominated.
>the one you think will win
Probably a band with a really big fan base on /mu/ so like Death grips or Animal collective or Radiohead
>What should have gotten in
Pic related would have been nice although it's not their best album so I can understand why it was overlooked.
Why didn't Gensho get in? It had enough votes way before most of the entries in the bracket.
>>72448326
>putting all of the good albums in the top right corner
friend what are you doing
Prayers 4 the Impossible Kid
Make way for the true 2016 goty.
>>72448326
>the one you want to win
Atrocity Exhibition
>the one you think will win
Probably Blackstar or Moon Shaped Pool
>what should have gotten in
That Iggy Pop album
>>72448859
>Crying
>Beyonce
>Weezer
>Car Seat Headrest
all trash
>>72448326
RIP The Drones
RIP Pinegrove
RIP Floss
also probably RIP Deak
>>72448326
>less than 10 good albums there
wew
>>72449161
That's because 2016 was a shit year for music. I honestly only remember a few albums I liked that came out last year.
bumop
Go Mitski!
>>72448732
Racism.
byumpo
>>72448326
>>Bruno Mars - 24k Magic vs. Childish Gambino - Awaken, My Love!
>mfw listening to dat new gambino for the first time
f u g
bruno mars didnt even have a change cuh
>>72451467
Objectively I have to give it Bruno because imo the only bad song on there is Perm and Awaken My Love has Terrified and The Night Me and Your Mama Met
>>72451984
>having tastes THAT bad
wew. doesnt matter anyway, gambino is winning like he should be
>>72448508
my vote for aoty probably goes to blonde. i went through a bit of a phase just a few weeks ago listening to it pretty much on repeat. i do that when i first get into albums a lot, but for me to be doing that almost a year later means it's a pretty incredible album to me.
I'd also be ok with UCII, blackstar, or AMSP
>>72451984
meaning you enjoyed Zombies??
Still though, I give it to bino for going with a whole different sound for him on this album
I'm calling a win for Death Grips, pin this
>Mitski losing
I don't know why I'm surprised.
>who will win?
Blackstar
>who do i want to win?
Blackstar, tho I'd be happy with Deak (unlikely)
>who should've been included?
Tim Hecker probably
>>72448832
Miranda Lambert but no Vektor. That's prettt fucked
Pulling for Bon Iver, Swans, KKB, and clipping.
Blackstar could win this though.
>>72452755
I didn't see Deak in the bottom corner, he has all of my support.
>>72452892
Vektor is on there.
Nice picks
>>72452928
Well shit, I feel stupid.
>>72450333
trips of truth
>tfw deak is gonna lose to kanye
>>72454210
Have faith and we can do it, anon!
mump
bnm
>>72448508
>Nonagon Infinity vs Telefone
Welp. That ended quickly
These threads are pointless because blackstar is gonna win
>mfw Floss is gonna lose to a bottom-tier AnCo album
I don't even like Sturgill Simpson, but The Avalanches are so fucking overrated I'm gonna vote for him.
>i listen to REAL music like childish gambino and kendrick lamar
>>72448508
the fact that Endless didn't make this is appalling
why the fuck is there not Car Bomb - Meta ? My personal AOTY 2016.
>>72448508
>Wildflower winning against Sturgill
>RTJ3 winning against Feelin Kinda Free
Disgusting.
At least YWID and Floss are winning
I've got a bad feeling that Elseq is going to get knocked off by the Death Grip fandom.
>>72460848
Good. Elseq is boring.
>tfw this album is better than at least 75% of the shit in this tournament
This was better than AMSP, idk why people often overlooked this 2016 release ;~;
>>72448508
Remember to vote for Painting With
>>72460928
>Not bumping c16 Deep Tread
>AMSP v Blond soon
This is gonna be a bloodbath
Not looking forward to seeing Sleep Cycle get massacred by TLOP.
>>72461081
I am.
>>72460928
t. Needledrop drone
>>72460958
>nu-male metal
>>72454210
