albums i've listened to this year

  1. 164/365, this just feels raw and unfiltered

  3. 162/365, also a very good honeydip album

  4. 161/365, og american football

  5. 160/365, absolute peak

  6. Mazzy Star

    159/365, already said what need to be said

  15. 150/365, swedish altrock done well

  16. 149/365, solo album by the singer of the swedish band Kent, it isn't as good as his work with the band in my opinion

  17. brakence

    148/365, this is probably the hyperpop album i like the most so far

  18. Constantine Markou

    147/365, this is such an improvement on the mixing front compared to his other work (i gave him a lot of tips), and is probably the one i enjoy the most by him

    146/365, same as last one

  20. Have A Nice Life

    ericdoa

    144/365, my first time listening to hyperpop, lowkey fire

  22. 143/365

  23. 142/365, this one holds up just as well as their other album

  24. 141/365, superb album that made me feel like i was on another planet

    131/365, very good

  35. Ween

  41. 126/365, really enjoyed this, it was a bit eeire but still very nice

  42. Kent

    125/365, first Kent album, you can tell that they're young, and this isn't as polished as their later work, but it still holds up in my opinion

  43. 124/365, this is one of the guys behind willyrodruiguezwastaken i think, and wetdream has been one of my favorites to listen to this month, and i can feel the same things that made me love that album in this.
