Faves: If I Had A Heart, Dry and Dusty, When I Grow Up

Least favorite: Coconut

Tbh I still don't remember how each song sounds until I actually listen to it but overall it's a great album, better than Plunge :gaycat3:

 

 

19. Beach House - Teen Dream: 7.9

teen_dream.original.jpg?auto=format&w=1700&h=1660

Faves: Walk In The Park, Take Care, Zebra

Least favorite: Better Times

I'm being a bit harsh with the scores just so every album in the top 20 doesn't have the same score so it might look like I prefer 7 over this but I don't :-* their second best album

 

 

18. M.I.A. - Matangi: 8.0

MIA_Matangi-1864x1864.jpg

17. Susanne Sundfør - The Silicone Veil: 8.0

The_Silicone_Veil_Album_Art.jpg

Least favorite: Can You Feel The Thunder?, Meditation In An Emergency

The fact that Susanne almost got all her albums on the list 508366252994068480.png?v=1 too bad Music has a biT of filler
