Car Seat Headrest no contest. It will go down as one of the most overrated records of the decade in 3 years.

Swans is also terrible to my ears but the average rym user always seems to give them good scores whenever they release anything.

Oops, I like King Gizzard.

I must point out that the Niechęć album's a really good jazz-rock sort of thing

Meta Meta and Shabaka are the two I'd recommend not on the ilm list, they're not perfect but they have some interesting moments.

There are way more albums I like in this list than in the whole ILM 77, so...

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

This lost is really intriguing to me. That Death Spell Omega is super tight and I didn't hate what I heard from Sleep Cycle. Plus that Shambaka guy was behind one of my favorite albums of the year. Lots of stuff to check out. Is the RTJ worth the trouble though?

I'm going to assume/hope at least 2 of the JR voters misread the read title

Ok I'm loving this Niechec album.

The strange thing about the RYM charts is that you could look at the charts from the 1960s up to the 2000s and think "hmm, that's pretty accurate", but the 2010s charts are bizarr
