Did you know there’s a tunnel under Ocean Boulevard - lana
Scaring the hoes (+DLC pack) - jpegmafia and danny brown
Also special mention to late entrant, the boy and the heron ost. Thank you joe hisashi ! (to my ear, the grey heron leitmotif starts w the same note as the start of megans piano so i especially love that)

I enjoyed the Lana album but that track with the Hillsong dude to me drags down the record

"Kintsugi" is a lovely song though

Siiiiiigh, Julien.

Anyway, listened to a ton of boygenius this year but nothing will top Unreal Unearth by Hozier. My year end review said I listened to it 538 times. I’m not even sure how that’s possible.

Unreal Unearth dominated my Apple Replay in nearly all categories. It says I played it 831 times, which seems insane, but maybe it counts it from as soon as you press play, and not if you listen to it all the way through? IDK. Anyway, so glad he came back and that this album was 🔥🔥🔥

I almost never agree with the order but always find some good new albums with these lists, haha. I didn't love the boygenius album, did like Caroline, Olivia and Sufjan's a lot. Didn't listen to Lana

My personal AOTYs (amongst others):
RAYE - My 21st Century Blues
Paramore - This is Why
SHINee - Hard
Genesis Owusu - Struggler
Allison Russell - The Returner
Chappell Roan - The Rise and Fall of A Midwest Princess
Arlissa - The OPEN-HEARTED
Metric - Formentera II
Taemin - Guilty
WayV - On My Youth
Tkay Maidza - Sweet Justice
Aesop Rock - Integrated Tech Solutions (this would've been on so many lists if it had come out earlier!!!!)

tkay's new album is so good

[longerthanwedo]

soooo good!!! I've loved all her albums

[x_spinfaster]

ooh did you like the whole Paramore album? I loved self-titled and after laughter, but wasn't into the this is why single so just never bothered listening to the rest. Hayley's solo stuff didn't really do it for me and the single just sounded liek that
