Didn't really care much for the Sylvan Esso song that Paste gave number 1 to, but I don't mind the other song I've heard of hers, "Coffee".

I liked the FKA Twigs album a lot, though I need to spend more time with it - it's one of those things where I need to be in the right mood (same with Beyonce's album, actually).

yeah p solid. wouldn't rank taylor that high above everything for 1989, tho, not with tinashe and miranda lambert and lykke and bey that far behind her

Even though there are a few things on there I hate or at least don't care about, I think I agree.

despite the numbering, the cosmo list does say "in no particular order"
― sosmix klopp (NickB), Tuesday, 2 December 2014 22:47 (nine years ago) link
no i don't really associate cosmo w/ wussiness but maybe if i were being uncharitable a kind of rote superficiality? idk anything about their music crit nb and i like plenty of artists on that list just that i've seen a cosmo cover before in my life
― Mordy, Tuesday, 2 December 2014 22:47 (nine years ago) link
whoever built that list is gonna be fun to hang out with

Is that a list just by Eliza Thompson or did they poll the Cosmo staff? Just curious.
― Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 2 December 2014 22:49 (nine years ago) link
like c'mon, this is at least a little lol that this is the magazine that closely lines up w/ ilx critical darlings

That cosmo list is excellent; all jokes, reservations, whatever much less so. Very telling, these "oh no we're like GIRLS" reactions. Btw how is a women's magazine more superficial than any of the desperate and hidebound music outlets itt? Beyond the covers cosmo, elle etc publish much more ~srs features than fucking stereogum
― lex pretend, Tuesday, 2 December 2014 23:37 (nine years ago) link
tbf Mordy is the source of that ugliness which is pretty expected at this point.
― Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 2 December 2014 23:39 (nine years ago) link
Particularly nice to see the kelis and miranda lambert albums there; former seems to have been completely forgotten, latter I thought had a lot of support but of course lambert's positioning is all wrong for any serious music publication to acknowledge her!
Xp indeed
― lex pretend, Tuesday, 2 December 2014 23:41 (nine years ago) link
i couldn't do anything with the kelis album unfortunately. i tried!

I don't like FKA Twigs and don't understand Ryan Adams and think the Jenny Lewis is embalmed studio rock but yes on Against Me!, Azealia Banks, and Swift. Didn't expect Perfume Genius, whom I can't stand but didn't expect to be on TIME's radar.
― guess that bundt gettin eaten (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Wednesday, 3 December 2014 00:14 (nine years ago) link
1. Taylor Swift, 1989 - There's some good and some bad on this album. 2. Ariana Grande, My Everything - No.3. Azealia Banks, Broke With Expensive Taste - Yes, absolutely! I had no idea it would be this good.4. Miranda Lambert, Platinum - Whatever, she's alright.5. First Aid Kit, Stay Gold - Strong first half, at least.6. Tinashe, Aquarius - Great!7. Lana Del Rey, Ultraviolence - People still like her. That doesn't bother me.8. Kelis, Food - Jerk Ribs > everything else.9. Lykke Li, I Never Learn - I love this one.10. Beyoncé, BEYONCÉ Platinum Edition - This was my #1 album from 2013. Still love it.11. One Direction, Four - I haven't listened to this, but I like some 1D songs.12. Ex Hex, Rips - I actually wish I liked this more.13. Jessie Ware, Tough Love - Better than her debut. There, I said it!14. Various Artists, The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 1 - Is Lorde on this? No thanks.15. Angel Olsen, Burn Your Fire for No Witness - I'm fine with this. Hardly ever listen to it.16. Dolly Parton, Blue Smoke - Dolly, always.17. Jenny Lewis, The Voyager - It's no Rabbit Fur Coat, but what is.18. FKA twigs, LP1 - YES!19. Perfume Genius, Too Bright - I have to be a mood, but when I am this is wonderful.20. St. Vincent, St. Vincent - I like it more each time I play it (which isn't often).
So no, the whole list isn't shit. Maybe only a tiny little bit of it is.
