I actually gave that John Mayer record a spin cause a guy i was talking to at the time it came out recommended it because I was curious. It's pretty good actually.

I actually haven't heard anything from #70-5, #3-1 - but that's not shocking :keir:

What IS shocking is seeing one of my favorite releases of the year in your top 5 :jonny4:

Yesss Hayley and ha bandmates did an amazing job on AL, they really can't put out any bad music.

There are two things that I mainly liked about the album. The first is that I don't feel there are fillers. The second is the transitions. From Hard Times to Rose-Colored Boy and Idle Worship to No Friend, the latter being my absolute favorite.

There was another K-pop album - EXO The 4th album - a crazy about K-pop music friend of mine wanted me to like. It ended up at #105, so she was close, lol.

I'm a fan of Real Estate, but this album disappointed me a bit. It didn't grow on me nearly as much as Atlas did, whereas Days, the album that introduced me to Real Estate, is that kind of album I don't like as much now as I did in 2012 (LOVED it back then) but still listen to it for all the good memories I associate it with. I heard Saint Etienne's album this month, and it reminded me a lot of The Carpenters in some songs. There's one out of SE's album that will be on my Top 100 songs for sure. Thanks for taking the time to check the whole list.

Mac being your top pick! I shoulda expected it lol it's a good record.

 

I'm very very pleased to see Nicole Atkins & Paramore in your top 5. Nicole I sitll need to give the record more listens, but it is great, whereas Paramore's record I haven't stopped listening to since late May.

 

Love the War on Drugs record too! Nice top 10 overall - need to check out the albums I don't know

Posted

Slowdive and Somersault :heart2: 

The top 10: ADU, Antisocialites, After Laughter and This Old Dog are all great. Interesting to see Mac as #1 tho!

Merry Christmas, everyone! Top songs will be posted on the next page. :hug:
