OPO: Album of the 2010s

My personal two favorites so far this decade are The War on Drug's Slave Ambient and Yellowbirds' The Color, both from last year.

Susanne Sundfør - Ten Love Songs

Just ahead of Kaleidoscope Dream.

some utterly hideous and borderline risible choices upthread lol

he said, opting for Richard Dawson - Nothing Important

death grips 1st album still is one of the best things

Still hoping we do a "Best of ILM 2010-2014" rollout one day. No idea what my choice would be, though.

Man, this decade has SUCKED so far.

black messiah

The only acceptable answers are Matana Roberts - Coin Coin Chapter One or Yellow Swans - Going Places.

can a mod delete moka's post pls, and any other such post upthread

carl burridge - dog track days

right now my (predictable) answer is To Pimp A Butterfly

I'll go with Echolyn's 2012 self-titled album. Seems like something I could listen to endlessly.

I dunno can't really pick one out of those. Right now I'd pick Fka Twigs.

EMA's Past Life Martyred Saints still holding on firmly to this title for me.

wye oak - civilian

not a big record but one that i hold close

A|A - Grouper (2011)
Strange Days - Eric Copeland (2010)
pom pom - Ariel Pink (2014)
America - Dan Deacon (2012)
Rest in Paradise - Co La (2011)
Yeezus - Kanye West (2013)
R Plus Seven - Oneohtrix Point Never (2013)
Panda Bear Meets the Grim Reaper - Panda Bear (2015)
Visions - Grimes (2012)
Night Time, My Time - Sky Ferreira (2013)

Zamknęły sie Oczy siemi
To Pimp a Butterfly
Black Up

ha

Right now, it's this:

Lovely soothing synth drones, Meg Bowles is a genius who remains to be uncovered by a larger audience because she's in the (admittedly self-chosen) "new age" category. But seriously, if this (or some of her previous albums) had been released by a "cool" ambient label, they would be lauded as masterpieces.

sold

the eventual championing of OPO over POO makes me very sad

Granda by Monika Brodka. She won the Polish version of Pop Idol in 2004 and released two reasonably good albums before disappearing for four years and coming back with a masterpiece. That was six years ago so the next one should be even better if it ever arrives.

ah fuck, I'd swap out something for Bowie's Blackstar.

only one you berk

SV going for some eastern european pop huh lol

You need more Shabazz Palaces in your life, imago

Beyoncé - 4
Boy Better Know - Tropical 2
Diddy Dirty Money - Last Train to Paris
One Direction - Take Me Home
Oneohtrix Point Never - Replica
Paramore - Paramore
Patrick Cowley - School's Daze

The-Dream - Love King
The 1975 - The 1975
The Knife - Shaking the Habitual
Beyoncé - Beyoncé

Gerard Way - Hesitant Alien
Farrah Abraham - My Teenage Dream Ended

aaaaaahhhhhhhh ban

wins scaruffibomb in 3..2...

buffer overrun

at least strikethru the ones that aren't your opo eh

each subsequent answer overwrites the previous one, this is the only possible interpretation

what these culture vultures aren't taking into account is that people might check out, say, the Tuomas and ShariVari recommendations, enshrined in their isolation

I hope so, nobody's topping the Farrah Abraham disc

jon viači - elevator boxes

gaz kingsnorth uber alles

whoa, this brodka album actually sounds kind of promising

Come on people. It is easy. After twenty years there has been a new album of

jon viači - elevator boxes

totally forgot about this ... i really like the production on it, though i'm a sucker for literal industrial noises. Total subtle homage to Robert Rental and Frieder Butzman if you listen properly

the esplendor geometrico and plan b hommages of 'ilm años' help to intersect notions of class and gender within interstitial social spaces more acutely than anything since 'the flowers of indie' by filth riemann

i think plan b ripped off jon viaci ... tbrr w/u
