ATRL Moderator madonnas Posted December 13, 2018 ATRL Moderator Share Posted December 13, 2018 I think that Invasion of Privacy is a good album because it gives me those 2000s hip hop albums that had "something for everybody" in it. That tizrah album... god, I wanted to like it but it was SO BORING. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pink Matter Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 Your disappointments are generally on point. Devotion was just kinda... eh? Like I saw some stanning for it and never got the fuss over it. I didn't hate MotW like everyone else (I thought the production was at least enjoyable to get through, see: Supplies ) but it does feel very "been there, done that" and lyrically there were some poor moments. I never bothered with The 1975 so I'll skip over that. And IoP isn't a bad album. It does what it sets out to do. But that doesn't stop this from being an unnecessarily overhyped album. It's just an album with bangers on it. While that's fine and all, it's weird that people are glossing over the fact that she's... not a good rapper lol. Mediocre lyrics and a choppy flow, but she's charismatic and fun so people don't care Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Vercetti Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 Agree on IOP being super overrated. Tirzah doesn't interest me at all, and someone compared her to Twigs. Not in this lifetime.

volition Posted December 16, 2018 Author Share Posted December 16, 2018 100. Deep End / Hard Rain - Lykke Li i’ve always been slightly cold on lykke li and her so her new trap-influenced slump was not really a major player for me. the leads though (putting in both single sides cause why not) were pretty good executions of what she was going for. musica alternative r&b / art pop 99. Livin' Loose - George Clanton fun, dreamy, and engaging chillwave with a great soundscape including a wonderful sax. the vocals are nicer than these kind of things can tend to be sometimes too. musica chillwave / synthpop 98. Fever Dreams - Emma Ruth Rundle hadn’t heard of her before this year, but her album was alright. this is my highlight, because it features the songwriting of similar indied singer-songwriters but augmented by the strength (like, physically) of the shoegaze influence. musica dream pop / shoegaze 97. Breathe In, Breathe Out - Melody's Echo Chamber very happy she’s back, this is a beautiful psych pop song that doesn’t skimp on the pop aspect, rather than devolving into useless neopsych dribble. it manages to fit a lot of interesting individual sections and transitions into its short length. can't seem to find a good picture of the single cover so album will have to do. musica psychedelic pop / progressive pop 96. Fragments of a Lily - Puce Mary a delightfully abrasive slice of (feminine sounding? at least imo) death industrial. what the we appreciate power instrumental should’ve sounded like. musica death industrial 95. Border Girl - Young Fathers love the simple groove, the ‘send another miracle’ hook is great too and i appreciate the surprisingly decent lyrics about gender identity given the style. musica alternative r&b / art pop 94. Little Death - The Beths they ended paramore (and i love when the accent comes through) musica indie rock / power pop 93. Finesse (Remix) [feat. Cardi B] - Bruno Mars the original was already one of the best parts of his career and cardi b managed to make this one of the biggest bangers of the year because the 90s influence is just so in your face (yes i’m totally including the video in this rank) musica new jack swing 92. Lake Zurich - Gorillaz they’ve been on the downward spiral for a while now, but this is a perfectly serviceable disco jam. musica synth funk / electro-disco 91. Eu Quero Comer Você - Elza i don’t speak portuguese but madonna certainly wasn’t making anything this good when she was 81. uptempo MPB-flavoured art rock might just be the best thing ever. musica vanguarda paulista / art rock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pink Matter Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 Some solid tracks here I think the positions for the majority of these songs are very accurate (deep end/hard rain, Livin' Loose, Finesse (Remix)) Though I haven't ranked Lake Zurich on my list, it's one of my favorite songs on the album.
