Mezik Posted December 22, 2020 Posted December 22, 2020 This is definitely an album countdown I need to put in my *mark off these albums and explore the new artists* to expand my horizons.

Sunderland 4ever Posted December 26, 2020 Posted December 26, 2020 Happy holidays! I hope you can finish your YECD.
Pink Matter Posted December 26, 2020 Posted December 26, 2020 I have the Buscabulla album saved because of the ATRL Critics Circle thing from a few days ago so I can't wait to try it! Empress Of was really nice on my first listen but it's not something that I went back to outside of Bit Of Rain.

BUT i will actually finish. 40. bad bunny - yhlqmdlg genre: trap, reggaeton i love thisd album, if it were shorter it would probably be top 20, but its got a nice blend of mainstream and progressive sounds going on. 39. flo milli - ho, why is you here? genre: hip hop yeah, i love her attitude i love her lyrics, and she's super young and talented. 38. lady gaga - chromatica genre: edm, dance pop yeah, chromatica is good, it would be better without bloodpop but lets also give gaga props for writing amazing choruses like the ones on alice, babylon, 911, and replay. 37. annie - dark hearts genre: synth wave mhm, norwegian legend annie did that, yet again. thinking about it, this is probably her weakest release? i guess that says a lot about the quality of her work because this is an amazing album. 36. kali uchis - sin miedo genre: contemporary r&b yeah everything about this is an improvement from isolation for me. its a complete listen, through and through. 35. against all logic - 2017-2019 genre: idm, industrial **** the haters this was just as good as his debut 34. too free - love in high demand genre: dance pop basically what i said about their song in my songs list, but then apply it to all the songs on this album. 33. clipping - visions of bodies being burned genre: hip hop, industrial hip hop still can't take them seriously knowing that daveed is part of hamilton. but you know what, its good enough for me to forgive. 32. kylie minogue - disco genre: nu disco a huge improvement from her previous album, 2013's kiss me once. 31. pink siifu - negro genre: sound collage this hits fast and it hits hard, and then doesn't let up for a single minute.

potent Posted January 1, 2021 Posted January 1, 2021 Chromatica has some cute songs, but I don't really like 911 idk why they chose that to be a single or at least get a video The Golden shade but Disco is a great album, probably a good placement for it since it gets repetitive at times, but the songs are still great
ATRL Moderator Legend E Posted January 1, 2021 ATRL Moderator Posted January 1, 2021 Quote a huge improvement from her previous album, 2013's kiss me once. both kmo and golden are underrated though disco is better than both too though chromatica

Need a new album (or I guess I can just listen to Neon Vega for the 10000th time). Haven't heard Buscabulla before their album but I love their background as Puerto Ricans and your top 2 are my top 2 as well. Porridge Radio cute! Lesbians, we love to see it. La Roux and Empress Of back to back YUP. Also I keep seeing La Roux referred to as "they" from other lists but isn't it just Elly now? nnn The Strokes album was good too but I didn't really get as into it as I would have liked. I see myself liking it more as time goes on. Saw I Break Horses on someone else's list and they're on my "to check out" section. I'll see if any other hoes I don't know here I'll check out i think you would like i break horses! we need neon indian badly, his song last year was pretty good but he always shines best in ALBUMS and honestly that song was not his best... so... more plz. la roux is a solo act now but its a force of habit for a lot of people. i mean i still see people refer to F+TM as 'they'.

Took a peek at Riki but I feel like her music sounds better on paper riki is def an acquired taste lol, but yeah i get what you're saying. its rare for me to prefer ballads and slower songs than uptempos but its not unheard of but i can truly say EO is better with faster tracks and its noy my bias.

And a huge YES to The Strokes being mentioned. They really delivered the goods this time. Porridge Radio was alright. Buscabulla looks interesting.

ATRL Moderator madonnas Posted January 3, 2021 Author ATRL Moderator Posted January 3, 2021 30. kelly lee owens - inner song genre: art pop, techno fave songs: on, melt, arpeggi kelly mixes soft ambient pop into her tried but true formula for electronic music. it gives us her best album so far, though the instrumental breakdowns are still the highlight of the album. 29. jam city - pillowland genre: uk bass, psychedelic pop fave songs: sweet joy, they eat the young jam city has produced for legends like kelela and now here he is with his own album. it was hard for me to pick a standout, the songs blend together in a great way. try it out if you like "deconstructed club" or whatever. 28. rina sawayama - sawayama genre: dance pop, pop rock fave songs: paradisin, xs, whos gonna save you now yes rina, she released a great project and i can definitely say that aside from paradisin, all the best songs are the pop rock formula. she really should work with clarence clarity for the rest of her career, they have such great chemistry. 27. lido pimiento - miss colombia genre: art pop fave songs: eso que to haces, no pude this album is such a good all the way through listen. there are touching downtempo moments at the end, but the bops are all in the front. 26. tricot - 10 genre: math rock, pop rock fave songs: track 10, warp they released TWO albums and the latter one is my personal choice. its got more pop moments but also just overall a blend of more eclectic moments that make it stand out, along with gorgeous singing and melodies. 25. jennifer touch - behind the wall genre: ebm, electropop fave songs: chemistry, teflon its a great synthwave type album, very heavy on the instrumentals and not so much on the vocals. vocals do give me very 80s early new wave kinda feeling like gina x peformance and siouxsie. one of the most underrated albums of the year thanks @pearlmercury for the rec. 24. sevdaliza - shabrang genre: trip hop, art pop fave songs: wallflower, oh my god, darkest hour i was actually not a fan of ison because thought it was too repetitive and lengthy, but she gave us just the right amount of versatility this album, which made the length not only bearable, but enjoyable. talk about a glow up! theres trip hop moments, uk bass moments, etc. overall just more of the same but way better for sev. 23. hayley williams - petals for armor genre: pop rock, art pop fave songs: sugar on the rim, cinnamon, dead horse hayley gave me everything i wanted this year and then some. i love that she divided this album into 3 parts and i can see how the first is the more art rock category, second is more somber pop ballads, and the third is the BOPS. well obviously i like disc 3 the most but 1 & 2 hold their own. 22. victoria monet - jaguar genre: r&b, disco fave songs: jaguar, experience lol, i guess this is an EP? i dont know, its an album on my list. the two disco songs ARE the standouts but dont let that fool you, its good all the way through, from track 1 to track 9. its a great length too. we need more albums this length. 21. 21 savage / metro boomin - savage mode ii genre: trap, hip hop fave songs: steppin on n****s, runnin i dont think i even heard one of his albums before this year, but im going to have to delve into his discography. enjoyable rap songs.
Ewan Chaos Posted January 3, 2021 Posted January 3, 2021 Kelly Lee untalented hack xo (just kidding I've just never liked her music I have no idea why, same with Holly Hernia or whatever her name was). Maybe I'll give this album a try. idk why I'm surprised Rina is so high for you, would have thought you were a staunch "RINA IS BETTER" person and put it in the lower 40s/in a HM. Your top picks are mine plus Love Me 4 Me which you hate Lido, Victoria, and HAYLEY especially I have Savage Mode II on my list to check out. Lemme check out Jam City due to the Kelela connection (whose album I recall not liking the year it came out and then SWITCHED the following January).
ATRL Moderator Legend E Posted January 4, 2021 ATRL Moderator Posted January 4, 2021 Quote kmo.... well, idk. i haven't heard it in a while but i remember being really really put off by sexercize and some of the middle songs. i liked i was gonna cancel and sexy love. well, relisten to it sexercize is a bop though people do too much on this album sawayama + petals for armor jaguar is cute too!
