The Jimmy Chamberlin Complex - Humility

Also, two of the very best aren’t on Spotify so I left them off the list:
The Microphones - Microphones in 2020
Cloud Nothings - This Mess is Permanent
Chastity Belt - The Process
Covet - Parachute
beabadoobee - Worth It
Hudson Mohawke - Monte Fiso
Tapeworms - Safety Crash
Lorenzo Senni - Canone Infinito
Erland Cooper & Marta Salgoni - Skreever
Anna Meredith - Inhale Exhale
Genevieve Artadi - Edge of the Cliff
Cuushe - Hold Half
Pretty much enjoyed these all equally, so was very tough to put them in order!

Can I just a massive thank you for this thread and to the person who added Waxahatchee - Ruby Falls to their top 10 and subsequently to this list. I think I’d listened to Waxahatchee once before and wasn’t too bothered. Had this playlist on random today and that track just blew me away!

The whole ranking thing is a bit silly really, but it’s a great way to discover new stuff. I listened to all the recommendations so far today and some absolute belters in there

Machinedrum - Kane Train (feat Freddie Gibbs)

Candy - Doja Cat
Afraid this is from 2018! Also I couldn’t find the King Midas Sound on Spotify - hopefully it will appear on there at some point in the future.
Future Islands - “For Sure”
the rest:
Bleach - “Stupid Boys”
Protomartyr - “Modern Business Hymns”
Landowner - “Old Connecticut Money”
Fontaines DC - “Televised Mind”
Wax Chattels -“No Ties”
Touche Amore - “Exit Row”
Bdrmm - “Push/Pull”
Muzz - “Evergreen”
IDLES - “Reigns”
Young Jesus - “Magicians”
not the most diverse list, but still working through a lot of new releases and a lot of good albums didn’t have a standout track as such
