SciFi is lead so far, although ive yet to visit the new LCD Soundsystem
>>74948284
You are forgetting Perfume Genius - No Shape, but everything else is right
Don't understand why people enjoy the Slowdive album so much. Wouldn't even rank it in the top 10 shugazi releases this year.
>>74948747
dude
i am not even a big milo fan but i could not stop playing this album. love the environment the production gives off
>>74948284
I really like the top 3, don't know Richard Dawson or Blanck Mass, and didn't like the Slowdive album much.
>>74948781
>Perfume Genius - No Shape
damn i done forgot this dropped

>>74948284
I can tell I've grown out of /mu/ because I haven't enjoyed any of those albums. Especially brand new
>>74948791
>new japanese breakfast has been out for nearly 2 months and I just didn't notice
>>74949195
Aww how cute :)
>>74948791
New Japanese Breakfast is amazing. It's either that, Brand New, or Slowdive for me.
>>74949010
Death Peak & Planetarium are underrated
This is the most FUN I've had with a rock release in YEARS.
Like, remember when rock music was fun and energetic not just constant sadboy shit? Man, it kicked ass!
>>74949010
The Machine That Made Us is great
>>74949286
great album cover
>>74948791
>>74948999
>Saturation 2
seriously?
This is mine so far. I know it's probably not a choice a lot on this board would make, but I just really like their style of music and this was a great comeback album.
>>74949286
underrated
The National - Sleep Well Beast
>>74948284
>>74949286

>>74949483
>taking RYM seriously
>>74949483
yes
>>74949512
you're proving him right

What is Orc like? I need to check that one out. Different or just their normal garage rock sound?
>>74950560
Silence/Sounds was way better
>>74949858
Some great picks. I found that Big Thief record to be pretty droll desu. Props for Magnetic fields and Paramore
>>74950885
Orc sounds like an improvement over their last album to me, it's a lot more proggy and less garagey, pretty good album.
>>74950856
Cute
I assume you've heard Trumpular

>>74950885

https://rateyourmusic.com/collection/Androol/r4.0
>>74951715
i see ranking music is a problem for you
>>74951807
Depends on your criteria. I have three main rankings that work well for me. If you mean an exact ordered list of 1-100 I have zero interest in that. 1-10 would be the most I would do and like I said yes I have a problem picking the best album of these just for starters.
>>74948284
>no cozy tapes
>>74951514
>>74951714
thanks guys. this shit is great.
>frank ocean
please keep nigger music to a minimum. is that the nigga that came out gay?
In no particular order
Thundercat - Drunk
Joey Bada$$ - All Amerikkkan Bada$$
LCD Soundsystem - American Dream
Vince Staples - Big Fish Theory
Flotation Toy Warning - The Machine That Made Us
Mac Demarco - This Old Dog
Pic related is honorable mention for being so close to this year
Frank and Kendrick still have the best songs of the year though
>>74952199
>please keep nigger music to a minimum
Why the racism?
>>74952397
And the homophobia? He said my suggestions were great but he doesn't like frank ocean because he is gay, so I imagine he is in for a rude awakening when he listens to that perfume genius
>>74949858
I'm glad someone else rates the feist album i feel like that kinda didnt get enough credit
also sorry if this is a dumb question but whats a good way to find out about new releases? I feel like i miss out on a lot of them cus i dont know where to look
>>74951224
Taxemenomicon actually surprised me with how good it was. Completely shredding the Glitch influence that rife through out Phonemenomicon.
>>74952397
>>74952440
well queers used to make amazing phenomenal music. they had that inner struggle and persecution going on. now its mainly soft and the gays are on our level.
blacks on the other hand
just awful. awful music.
hip hop is such trash. all you have to do is put a bare amount of thought into it, make one shakespeare reference and all the critics wanna put the album up on the fridge.
just really terrible music.
love me some three six though.
You're right about hip hop for the most part but your exception for three six is autistic
>>74951048
This was actually an incredibly solid collection of tracks. But with it only being 30 minutes and 1 track being p garbo (Phone Lit) that hurt it a lot imo.
>>74952670
how do u feel about jazz?
>>74951224
patrician taste anon
man, i have some catching up to do
>>74952858
hate jazz.
jazz played in public spaces and restaurants just kills me.
I am not a musician and if I had to listen to jazz all day at starbucks I'd lose it.
>this flotation toy warning band is fantastic, good suggestion guys
>>74952863
>t. pleb
impossible nothing is not good. it's just hours and hours of repetitive beats and random half-assed samples. there's nothing remarkable about it aside from how damn long it is.
>>74952945
we already knew you werent a musician dude you just said that you hate jazz
>>74952963
thats what Im saying.
jazz.
stoner rock.
really complex metal.
like this
>>74952571
was garbage. I dont have the time or attention span for that shit. Boris is great and can make super long songs. but they pay off.
really most music where half of the enjoyment comes from appreciating the musicianship is lost on me.
math rock.
>>74952995
some more accessible but still very good jazz records, if you care to try them
art blakey and the jazz messengers - moanin'
john coltrane - blue train
sonny rollins - saxophone colossus
john coltrane - my favorite things
cannonball adderley - somethin' else
New Lucy Rose album is AOTY
>>74953389
Wtf I wish. I was completely obsessed with her last album.
>>74949472
yeahhhhh. Uzi's the best
>>74952364
aww you like Joey Bada$$ and Vince? I hope 2016 treats you well
>>74948791
Which is the third one from the left, top row?
another quick question
>as a guy who grew up with pinkerton

>>74953587
Nice fantanocore
>>74952995
>metal
>complex
incredibly embarrassing, consider suicide pleb
>>74953778
an entire genre of music that features incredibly technical guitar work at an incredible rate to display the difficulty involved
and Im the retard.
>>74953941
4chan is not a place of subtlety
>>74953774
how?
something like this
>>74949195
if you actually think Brand News 2017 album is anywhere near decent you're the one with garbage taste
>>74954940
Ahh the contrarian appears
>>74948284
>no one posted this
hiphop edition
>>74955048
yeah no
>spend 8 years doing whatever
>self publish album
>formulaic made emo/indie rock
>somehow on the same generic level as Your Favorite Weapon
Brand New can fuck off. The Devil and God and Dasiy actually had some sort of genuine feeling about it, which they now completely flushed down the toilet
>>74948284
I can't believe no one mentioned this
pic related has been my AOTY. great for the gym.
>>74955116
listening to this now.
>>74953419
It did! I started writing music AND got a girlfriend :)
>>74950887
This is sick. Check out pegasuses-xl >>74952872
What's top middle?
>>74956141
I liked this as well but it doesn't have much replay value to me. Just saw em the other day tho and the new songs worked really well live, held right up to the older material
I haven't listened to too much this year, but this is what stood out
>>74951224
What albums are these?
>>74951224
if u are hipster use this magic option which show album names next time
>>74948284
Is there a quality leak of Sleep Well Beast yet or just the vinyl?
>>74957510
i listened to /mu/leak only
>>74955116
It's really just okay, certainly not aoty
I haven't listened to a lot of albums this year, though.
Really not much this year for me so far, but no less than usual I suppose. I really like Dear a lot, so that's a big plus.
>>74955111
Someones cranky, nap time?
>>74948284
You fucking retards hate that hip-hop and rap are a league above other genres in 2017 that you completely disregard it, absolutely pathetic.
>>74957947
Lol good one
>>74957969
It's the truth, can't believe you are all so deaf
>>74957947
I havent heard a single AOTY worthy hip hop album this year, and I love hip hop
>>74948791
big up for big thief
>>74957556
I'm not saying that it's definitive AOTY but it's one of the better releases in this year (at least for me).
>>74953727
whats the second album last row?
Sleep Well Beast
Flower Boy
American Dream
Crack Up
Slowdive
This year is insanely good for a lot of genres.
Idk about AOTY but I really like this.
and it's not even close
>>74949286
You are a fucking idiot. Is this bait?
I haven't listened to anything new in the past month or so. I'm getting caught up today, so I'll probably have to update this soon.
Got to rearrange some of this. My favorite is xiu xiu.
>>74948311
>t. fantanodrone
>>74959943
I mean, the capital words and exclamation mark definitely read pretty sarcastically.
>>74955111
Imagine being this wrong about anything in your life.
can someone post the link for sleep well beast?
