Wildness has some cute songs that might appear on my list. ? But overall, Fallen Empire was sooo much better, so I was disappointed by their comeback.

You like Snow Patrol but not Coldplay... look at your life! Look at your choices!!

I did NOT like Wildness.

 

Everyone is better than Coldplay tho. ?

[lhdang2000]

Youngblood.  

 

I've never been a fan of 5SOS, but they really deliver with this album.  

 

[Uncatena]

Be the Cowboy deserves to be higher in my opinion, but a great inclusion nonetheless

 

Dissolvi was... fine. Strands is miles better tbh

[Legend E]

Phoenix is a cute girl

Dissolvi hasn’t aged very well tbh. It used to be higher on my list.

Tomorrow, i’ll post #40 to #31. Some amazing albums, genres breakdown:

Rap: 2

R&B: 2

Pop: 1

Alternative + Rock: 4

Electronic: 1

 

[Remmy]

Mmm we love how that main banner just appears and disappears like that, slay!

2017 Recap~ Hang On Me is good and a personal grower. Thunder Perfect Places
Best Albums~ My Dear Melancholy, is a decent EP. 5SOS went off quite a bit on Youngblood, honestly

[Pink Matter]

Overall some choices were made  

Sad to see Isolation only as an HM but still glad it's charting! Same for I'm All Ears too actually.

As for your main list, some solid choices already with Pusha T, Mitski, and The Weeknd. I listened to Steve Hauschildt project and didn't like and while KTSE was nice, it didn't have much impact for me.

living for it

48. Daytona by Pusha-T

47. Be The Cowboy by Mitski 

46. Dissolvi by Steve Hauschildt

41. KTSE by Teyana Taylor

These albums!  K.T.S.E. is rly good but I wish had listened to it more. Same with Dissolvi, I really like the song with Julianna Barwick though!

[Pendulum]

Mitski at #47?  sis... 

 

I still have to listen to that Steve Hauschildt album, might give it a go!

[Brandon]

 

The Weeknd

[Bubble Tea]

Hmm... lol. Let me just remain perched for the upcoming TALENT.

[TheWayWeWere]

Be the Cowboy should've been higher, it's a masterpiece  

MNEK appearing  he's a mess, but still makes good tracks

KTSE was great, but era itself is a mess, I still can't believe we can't get even ONE video

[Glassmouth]

Teyana SERVED! I live for her

[Vilppu]

rly liked teyana, pusha t, 5sos were surprisingly nice and i thot you a OMH so be the cowboy is a cute surprise too ^-^

And the OP text is from this

 

the banner disappearing is in sync with the piece of music between the 2 spoken parts. It makes sense in my head lol

Same. She has so much charisma. She probably needs to get out of Kanye’s umbrella.

I couldn’t stop Mitski’s bag

the songs I love, I keep listening all the time. 

[Blue Rose]

 

 

Her talent is undeniable and her bangers (Chun-Li and Good Form) are just waiting for a drag queen to perform them to their full potential. But much like her personal life, what brings this album down is her lack of focus.

 

 

Her 2015 collab album with Electronic producer Galamatias was stunning. So I was disappointed that her new offering was going to lack that element. But she still delivered a very strong, lush and seductive R&B album.

 

 

Her voice is unique and fantastic, which makes her stand out immediately. The songs are fun without being over the top. When she writes about love, it's full of confidence and hope. And her Brit-Pop production gives her album enough edge without losing the generic and catchy nature of Pop music that I love.

[Blue Rose]

 

It works! It's fun too. Sometimes even catchy. A good experimental Rock album needs to be unsettling yet accessible imo. I just wish it was a little more emotional. Most of the songs take so many turns, new instruments are introduced before you even get used to the previous one, and yet, you never get lost and his direction remains clear.

 

 

A veteran rapper not related to Tekashi 69. Planet is filled with bangers, fire beats and his flow is amazing and fast. This takes me back to last summer.

 

 

I never listen to Death Metal but I was curious about the added orchestra and the electronic instrumental. The result is very visceral, bleak and highly emotional. A fantastic album.

 

 

I’ve always liked Beach House but this is their first album that I love love, and for me signaled a new, more actualized and polished direction. The layers are sublime and the whole thing is just so relaxing to me.

[Blue Rose]

 

Funky, soulful, sensual, unapologetic, empowering. This is literally EVERYTHING. Syd is a super star and her voice is so smooth. The funky and jazzy production is amazing. The bass which is highlighted here gives it a modern touch. This isn’t their first album, but it is their introduction as a cohesive unit.

 

 

One of 2 “Bloom” in this countdown. This was perfect for unwinding after a long day. The Ambient production was interestingly soothing and weird at the same time.

 

 

The lyrics of this albums cut really deep. Damon sings with so much emotion and vulnerability while the music is Rock perfection.

So true about Onika, a shame   

 

Be the Cowboy deserves to be higher!!!!11111  

[mokitsu]

Rae Morris was cute, listened to it a lot early this year.

Beach House deserves better  

Jack White's album... probably the worst thing i've listened to
