Congrats! We’re 60% through the dogshit time period that is the 2020s. Let’s reflect on the music from the first 50% of it.
I think we might all be a bit burned out on ranking art, so I’m thinking we just vote for the ten albums we’re most passionate about - the ones you want to shove in people’s faces, or where if someone said something good or bad about it, you’d feel compelled to post a wall of text or talk their ear off or behave like a lunatic. Or maybe you’d do that unprompted.
(If you’re a true art-ranking sicko you can rank them in this discussion thread if you feel like it, but there’s no obligation or pressure for anyone to do that.)
I’ll start a voting thread where people lock in their picks (let’s keep it to one album per artist per voter), and at the end I’ll tally up the votes and see how things go and do a countdown or something.
What 10 albums from 2020-2024 do you feel most passionate about / compelled to shove in people’s faces?
Bookkeeping Note - after you vote, try to quote your official list from the voting thread into this thread and give a one or two sentence (or more) description of each album and include a bandcamp or Youtube link to a song from it for easy playing. That way we get a easily sample-able list of albums to try.
Deadline: Saturday, March 7th
