Different pick from most, but I really enjoyed “SMILE! :D” by Porter Robinson. I might be biased though. Porter is my all time favorite artist.
I forgot SMILE :D released this year! Also a really great album!
It really is! Although I still believe nothing will beat Nurture. That’s not just Album of the year, it’s the GOAT.
definitely aura safari - sensory blending
Time II by Wintersun. It was a long wait, but I’d almost call it worth it, 'cause the album is so good.
Brat
The Last Dinner Party’s Prelude to Ecstasy.
NOTHING MATTAHS
The opera singer Lisette Oropesa’s Mozart aria album. An absolute perfect voice with impeccable technique.
All born screaming by St. Vincent
objectively “the new sound” by geordie greep
personally (as a mega fan of THD) “exploitopia” by that handsome devil
Porter Robinson - Smile!
Wavedash - Tempo
It’s She’s Electric Girl for the 13th consecutive year! Wow, what a winner, can’t wait to see who takes it next year!
Zanmu by Ado, she has such an amazing voice. Also; Ado’s Utattemita Album, which is a cover album, her performance of crime and punishment gives me shivers.
Return to Hellview - 96 Bitter Beings
All re-recordings, but man is it so noticeable the difference in quality from the originals.
Mine would be Flight B741 by King Gizzard and The Lizard Wizard https://youtu.be/Ik-gBAlEbQY
WOO
That’s fucking beautiful Long live King Jizz!
The New Sound by Geordie Greep though this was a stellar year for albums imo and it’s hard to pick just one
Agree with the whole comment but yeah I love every song of The New Sound, especially The Magician. Also I “discovered” black midi at the beginning of the year and was sad to learn they splitted, thankfully Greep released this masterpiece.
