Whomst?

Jorja, **** autocorrect  

[Psycho]

CAUTION

 

[Tom Vercetti]

hmm, my favorite here is Slide. I gave Shopping Body half a listen during the January Drought and left it there.

 

Wasn't that impressed with the Tropical Storm album but there's a song I like by them that's not in your highlights nor bottom. 

[Ewan Chaos]

George Clanton's album is good!! Glad you got to check it out before the year ended.

 

I quite liked the Metric record too, but I'm still kinda getting into it tbh.

[Pink Matter]

Slide is my fave from  this set  And glad you were able to make space for it on such short notice. I hate when I listen to something good but I don't have the opportunity to sit with it as much as I'd like cuz I'm short on time  

[Love Drought]

Slide and Caution 

[Eeveelution]

Cuation is cute. Idk.her gif for the others!

[Mark Rih]

Caution Mariah won, her peers could never

I'm glad Jorja made it to the top 50 too

[mokitsu]

Caution  i think i listened to Slide and didn't like it 

[World Eater]

The way we switched from making fun of Mariah to stanning Caution

 

Me when I recommended Slide to everyone

[Glassmouth]

didn't know about George or TFS but with those description I, for sure, will give them a listen

 

 

as well I'm living for how much stans Mariah is getting back after Caution, even tho I'm not a stan myself, I can recognize talent when I hear it 

[TheWayWeWere]

Caution is too low  one of my favorite Mariah albums in YEARS

[Uncatena]

Slide making it to the list :deserves:

 

The Official Body is on my list.... we'll see :fan

 

Caution SLAPS, whew

 

I got into that Tropical **** Storm album because of you and it would have made my list but I only listened once so far, lemme just say you're right and it leaves me in awe too. it's insane.

[Dom]

MARIAH MAKING IT, YASS MAMA. 

 

I DON'T SEE GTFO IN BEST TRACKS, BUT IT'S MY BOP AND WAS A CUTE MEME.

[Vilppu]

as a former stan and now casual listener of moo i'm glad to see her receive a lot of acclaim this year ^-^

 

listened to the slide album and bitch this so good !! the title track is a serve serve SERVE but as a whole i love it

[theblackestday]

Slide & Meatspace are on my wishlist. Nice to see Mimi here, but GTFO needs to be included in that bottom.... 

Both are a must listen! Nnn I actually agree, it's my least favorite alongside With You but I know it's a fan favorite and I'm kinda sick of being the contrarian so I avoided of putting it there ✨

Slide bitch SLIDE, I can’t get that puta out of my head. Make It Forever is an instant synthpunk classic  Mariah made many points with Caution. It is like her most low-key album, GTFO is a jam.  

Our man SNAPPED

Tierra Whack is a genius, the accompanying film is incredible

not familiar with any of the top 50 so far except Jorja's which has the masterpiece Teenage Fantasy

I definitely look forward to what she has to offer

Fair enough

It really is  Wish I had placed it higher tbh but it was too much of a late discovery so didn't really work out

I'm glad you could find something here! I'm actually sure you'll love both, esp George's.

 

Same, in fact, this is the only Mariah album I've heard  but I'm convinced it's one of her best already

It's really great, this is not very low by my standards tbh  especially considering I was never big on Mariah musically.

ahhh yes stan  he really made all the points 

[theblackestday]

 

40. Lykke Li - so sad so sexy

Alternative R&B, Art Pop

Quote

 

Tops: jaguars in the air, better alone, hard rain, deep end, last piece

Bottoms: so sad so sexy, bad woman, utopia

 

39. Birds in Row - We Already Lost the World

Post-Hardcore, Hardcore Punk

Quote

 

Tops: We vs. Us, Remember Us Better Than We Are, I Don't Dance, Fossils

Bottoms: Triste Sire

 

38. Thom Yorke - Suspiria

Film Score, Ambient

Quote

I'll just go ahead and say it, Suspiria is Thom's best solo project to date. I haven't watched the Suspiria film but I imagine this soundtrack accompanies it perfectly. A beautifully haunting and atmospheric listening experience.

 

Tops: Suspirium, Has Ended, Open Again, Unmade, Volk, Suspirium Finale

Bottoms: An Audition

 

37. Kamasi Washington - Heaven and Earth

Spiritual Jazz

Quote

even though I loved last year's Harmony of Difference, I avoided this album for a few good months because I wasn't here for a near-three hours long jazz album. and whew, am I happy that I gave in. This album is an experience™... a taxing one, but most importantly a rewarding one. Some tracks may not be as engaging as others, but overall it is a thoroughly epic and adventurous jazz record which reminds us why Kamasi is a brilliantly talented and ambitious musician.

 

Tops: Street Fighter Mas, The Space Travelers Lullaby, Vi Lua Vi Sol... etc.

Bottoms: where where are they

 

36. MGMT - Little Dark Age

Synthpop, Psychedelic Pop

Quote

this album reminds me of my walks to [redacted]. loved this a lot at the time of its release although I always felt there's some obvious highlights and some weaker moments. It didn't serve much longevity for me, but I did in fact start returning to it recently and I still enjoy it, especially love the highs a lot. Contains some perfect, fun and catchy synthpop tracks with a psychedelic aesthetic, and even though the lows drag it down for me, it remains a cohesive body of work.

 

Tops: Days That Got Away, When You Die, Little Dark Age, When You're Small, Hand It Over

Bottoms: Me and Michael, One Thing Left to Try, James

Lykke

But now we said it

 

This and Suspiria back to back points were made

 

I only listened to LDA once but it didn't really stick with me 

[Dom]

Lykke Yass, Hard Rain , that’s a classic, That’s a classic.

 

and Suspiria soundtrack whew, wig in Pakistan.

[Uncatena]

Suspiria is the only thing i like/know from this and it should be higher so

 

hi

 

i guess

[fossora]

- the amount of taste in HMS only

- Slide, Caution

- SSSS, Suspiria

[Tsareena]

so sad so sexy great record 
only listened once to heaven and earth but I really enjoyed it ff
 

[SLIME]

Lykke's album sucked IMO. MGMT was dope though. Suspiria and Kamasi I will get around when I have more time 

[Tom Vercetti]

MGMT being the highest this batch is accurate. 

 

some of your mgmt tops and bottoms should switch imo
