ATRL Moderator madonnas Posted March 7 ATRL Moderator Posted March 7 Oh I’m afraid to listen to bg and Zach but I’ll do it. amaarae project is amazing, Olivia Victoria albums were just fairly good

BlackoutZone Posted March 7 Posted March 7 (edited) Might partake, but that will entirely depend if I'm able to go through that awful boygenius album again, the other picks are great But yeah I wish Caroline made it instead.. or Lana Edited March 7 by BlackoutZone

That's my fault for not reading "biggest" @ kimberly, but maneskin's album was definitely big, just with an audience of wider age range and less american centric too i suppose
Achilles. Posted March 8 Posted March 8 The way I’ve heard the Amaarae and boygenius albums and don’t remember them. I don’t mind if yall wanna destroy the record, but can we please agree that “Not Strong Enough” is innocent??!

I don’t remember discourse about them in the broader culture. But I guess they did get that big NYT profile.

I listened to it when it came out last year and I just don’t remember it inspiring such strong feelings. Will be interesting to revisit in light of everyone’s hatred.
ATRL Moderator khalyan Posted March 9 ATRL Moderator Posted March 9 Not a single good album in the list!

One of my favorite events on atrl. Of course I will do this
Invisibility Posted March 9 Posted March 9 I get that Caroline will be on This Was Pop, but no Kelela here? This is gonna be so bad for Zach Bryan and boygenius. Will be supporting Livie and Ms. Rae with my ballot though

Just surprised with the way everybody else was dragging them.

Will be supporting Livie and Ms. Rae with my ballot though Caroline and Kelela - the Joan and Bette of our day - will be in THIS WAS ALT POP 2023. @supaspaz would have to be paid to host a rate with a Lana album in it! Boygenius's effort, however, transcended alt lanes - they just had multiple categories named after them on a recent Jeopardy episode! 1
