2017 end of the year lists

37 wtf?

poor Bjork, should have bumped up that release date by a couple of weeks

CoS list manages to be even more boring than RS

Prog Sphere:

Ryan Adams at #3 on CoS, what is is this 2000?

Lmao at U2 at 3

xp's I stand corrected Prez Keyes!

I was wondering how I managed to completely forget the release of a U2 album, turns out it's not even out yet.

COS isn't great but it's a little better than RS, at least it has Future and Kelela.

i think we can all get behind this one:

god imagine if that was your life

Hahaha that looks like it was done by one of my friends. Ironically he’s the kind of guy who is always judging people by their bad taste in music.

Which is usual behaviour for my rockist friends come to think about it.

god imagine if that was your life

Looks like a high school kid circa 2004

Even the Prog Sphere list looks pretty boring, but I will check out a few things on it. Hilarious self-own to publish the list a week before the Cleric album comes to put all other prog-metal in the shredder

"Even the Prof Sphere list looks pretty boring"

"Hilarious self-own"

i've never heard of any of the bands in that albums list therefore it is the best list so far.

it has a band named CATS IN SPACE so i agree

they will all turn out to be thuddingly retrograde hard-rock dirge-peddlers fyi

i don't know why they only managed to name 9 live acts btw, have a horrible feeling the tenth act passed on and had to be withdrawn from the list

for more clues, check out their live acts list

also lol haha yes

Independent list first one that makes some sense

yeah it always has been a publication for bourgie dullards

Girlpool conspicuously missing from all these lists

Come on lj, it's the most progressive list on here by far.

it just kinda looks like the other ones reshuffled

that thundercat record is awful

agreed about the thundercat record, was really looking forward to it after that awesome EP he dropped in 2015

I like "Show You the Way" but was never able to get into the record as a whole

(though of course I'd like it better without the winky vocalist intros)

flappy bird w/ a good point, re: Girlpool's absence

Oh don't worry there's 400 more lists yet to come.

lots more chances for Lorde to come in at #2

I had no idea there was a new Satyricon. Also pumped that the Elder LP is showing up in some of these.

Is the Lorde album even any good? I've not bothered with it yet

it's very good

(and I didn't care for the first much at all)

Is the Lorde album even any good? I've not bothered with it yet

asking this question in a thread highlighting various lists where it's come in at #1. At bear minimum it's probably worth a bother.

it's not really my thing and i still think it's p impressive

Lorde album is great

It is. Even though it's not among my faves, it's worth one breath as opposed to a thousand TayTay thinkpieces imo.

Not much into the whole Lorde album, but Green Light is one my tracks of the year

The Ryan Adams record is actually really good, too. Best since Love is Hell. #burningmyreponepostatatime

yeah it rules

anyone who has the portugal the man album on their list is a cop
