ATRL Moderator madonnas Posted December 10, 2019 ATRL Moderator Posted December 10, 2019 The Tove/Kylie collab was better than I expected but I listened to it twice. Kim Gordon's album omg ugh, you better save room for Paprika Pony Incapable is too low. 35 songs better than it this year? AS IF Eye on the wall >> Pop Song
prézli Posted December 10, 2019 Posted December 10, 2019 Oh wow, these goddamn big pictures Mark His album was so good.
TheWayWeWere Posted December 11, 2019 Posted December 11, 2019 Really Don't Like U is a jam for years True Blue is flawless Roisin turning right direction with last two singles
Body Electrician Posted December 11, 2019 Posted December 11, 2019 I think I only listened to True Blue once can’t remember it doing much for me, especially with the far superior solo Angel songs this year Forgotten Eyes cute but hope there’s more Big Thief songs on the list hayden casey stanning and I still need to check out that Kim Gordon album, idk why I haven’t yet
TRF. Posted December 11, 2019 Posted December 11, 2019 Tove/Kylie, Róisín, Kim, Rosalía yep all served!!!
Eeveelution Posted December 11, 2019 Posted December 11, 2019 Quote The legend of pop music returns with an 8 minute club banger. The lyrics are interesting. We learn that she never had a broken and she might be incapable of love. Yeah. Roisin really served this year.
ATRL Moderator Tsareena Posted December 12, 2019 ATRL Moderator Posted December 12, 2019 stay high, true blue millionaria is such a bop. she is a sketch artist is she sketches a lot Hayden Casey talent I didn't know there were two Perfume Genius sings ff taste on forgotten eyes wehw

Sbbmsve Posted December 12, 2019 Author Posted December 12, 2019 (edited) A stunning closer to this mess of an album. In a good way of course, its aesthetic is being messy. There were many good picks from this album but this one felt so different in contrast to the other songs. It's like a quiet break after a shitstorm An amazing art-pop song assisted by mind-blowing violins. This challenges Angel Olsen's strings. Confessions is chaotic, there's so much going on but also it's very catchy. Wish she continued this perfection on her debut album. The kings of gimmicky electronic music return with another gimmick album that is made of plastic. Out of all global warming themed albums this one feels the most appropriate sonically since it's made of what ruins the earth. But unlike their most previous efforts, this is their most melodic and memorable album and the title track especially is beautiful. Although this is a cover, Kelsey Lu manages to put her own mark on this song. I'm Not In Love is almost 7 minutes and it's filled with ambient soundscapes and beautiful vocal melodies. Stunning through and through. The queen of techno collabs with the peasant of techno. Jk, Jon is fine. This is so accurate to their sound like this is what you imagine when you think about their collab. That drop is legendary and has a very catchy melody. The production is stunning as always. Kelly Lee Owens is owning this year even though she only released 2 or 3 songs. We are not ready for KLO2. Even though ANCO is fading away, it's still possible to find glimpses of talent in their recent solo material. This year's Cows and Buoys were both very out of the box and solid albums for Avey and Panda. Also the re-issue of Deakin's Sleep Cycle happened this year which is easily the best ANCO related project of this decade. Anyways I picked the lead single from Cows, Saturdays (Again). It's a guitar-driven chill song. After Avey's experimentation with electronic music this felt so natural. I feel like this should be the sound he's going for. Great lyrics as well. Hatchie expanded her dream-pop sound this year with Keepsake. Even though I had some problems with its lyrical simplicity, it was undeniably catchy. Stay With Me is the best song there by far. The melancholic guitars and sweeps of synths go well with her amazing voice. I dragged her lyrics but the girl actually wrote a solid song here. Its lyrics talk about someone going desperate because of a breakup. (ATRL crashed and my write-ups disappeared for the next picks...) Edited December 12, 2019 by Sbbmsve
ATRL Moderator madonnas Posted December 12, 2019 ATRL Moderator Posted December 12, 2019 I thought Sudan Archive's album was a little too forgettable, though I only gave it one chance. Her EP last year was better. That cover wasn't the best on Kelsey's album, there were like 3 amazing songs on the album though. LOVE the Matmos song but IDK if I could pick a fave from the album. Stay with Me is ... the third best song on the album Really emotional well written song though. Summer Girl and Under the Sun are perfect songs.

Sbbmsve Posted December 12, 2019 Author Posted December 12, 2019 Screaming at those spoilersss aaaa my thread is a mess but I don't want to change it
theblackestday Posted December 12, 2019 Posted December 12, 2019 Kinda shoot I'm Not in Love is so low knowing how obsessed you were with it. Talented set though
World Eater Posted December 12, 2019 Posted December 12, 2019 knew (and loved) most of these, but I checked out mr Casey because of your recommendation and wow I am really impressed, this is unlike anything I've heard in a while everyone on ATRL should check him out before he blows up, I've just read that allegedly he signed a deal with Sub Pop 39 minutes ago, Sbbmsve said: (ATRL crashed and my write-ups disappeared for the next picks...) let me using this excuse on my next update

Really hope it's true!
TRF. Posted December 13, 2019 Posted December 13, 2019 Spellling, Haim, KLO/Jon, Hatchie and of course miss Kelsey Lu
Lazuli Posted December 13, 2019 Posted December 13, 2019 rabi, stay with me (ugh this is true excellence), summer girl, damn
TheWayWeWere Posted December 13, 2019 Posted December 13, 2019 those spoiler tags Summer Girl Stay With Me slays
Body Electrician Posted December 13, 2019 Posted December 13, 2019 Would say something witty about the Bon Iver song but I have no idea what it sounds like despite listening to that album a bunch of times... I'm Not In Love one of my faves from Blood, Kelsey a cover artist - Chromatics teas? Stay with Me cute song but not my fave on Keepsake, same with Damn (which is 3 minutes too long) Summer Girl A great set, perched for top 20
Eeveelution Posted December 14, 2019 Posted December 14, 2019 Damn an experimental choice but indeed one of the best songs on Designer!

Ewan Chaos Posted December 14, 2019 Posted December 14, 2019 Nervous! The Drums stanning jumped OUT sis! Ms. Musk was pretty good this year... let's see how next year is. Ghostin is cute! Underrated I think? Juice is a BOOOOOOOP. Great Jai pick and great CHAHLAY feat. crackhead pick as well.
