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

i've never heard of any of the bands in that albums list therefore it is the best list so far.
― evol j, Monday, 27 November 2017 17:58 (six years ago) link
it has a band named CATS IN SPACE so i agree
― brimstead, Monday, 27 November 2017 17:59 (six years ago) link
they will all turn out to be thuddingly retrograde hard-rock dirge-peddlers fyi
― imago, Monday, 27 November 2017 18:00 (six years ago) link
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don't know why they only managed to name 9 live acts btw, have a horrible feeling the tenth act passed on and had to be withdrawn from the list
― damian green is people (NickB), Monday, 27 November 2017 18:01 (six years ago) link
for more clues, check out their live acts list
also lol haha yes

Independent list first one that makes some sense

Girlpool conspicuously missing from all these lists
― flappy bird, Monday, 27 November 2017 18:07 (six years ago) link
Come on lj, it's the most progressive list on here by far.
― Le Bateau Ivre, Monday, 27 November 2017 18:09 (six years ago) link
it just kinda looks like the other ones reshuffled
that thundercat record is awful
― ToddBonzalez (BradNelson), Monday, 27 November 2017 18:11 (six years ago) link
agreed about the thundercat record, was really looking forward to it after that awesome EP he dropped in 2015
― voodoo chili, Monday, 27 November 2017 18:12 (six years ago) link
I like "Show You the Way" but was never able to get into the record as a whole
― Simon H., Monday, 27 November 2017 18:27 (six years ago) link
(though of course I'd like it better without the winky vocalist intros)

flappy bird w/ a good point, re: Girlpool's absence
― alpine static, Monday, 27 November 2017 18:46 (six years ago) link
Oh don't worry there's 400 more lists yet to come.
― billstevejim, Monday, 27 November 2017 18:56 (six years ago) link
lots more chances for Lorde to come in at #2
― President Keyes, Monday, 27 November 2017 19:00 (six years ago) link
I had no idea there was a new Satyricon. Also pumped that the Elder LP is showing up in some of these.
― billstevejim, Monday, 27 November 2017 19:18 (six years ago) link
Is the Lorde album even any good? I've not bothered with it yet
― imago, Monday, 27 November 2017 19:23 (six years ago) link
it's very good
― Simon H., Monday, 27 November 2017 19:28 (six years ago) link
(and I didn't care for the first much at all)
― imago, Monday, November 27, 2017 Bookmark Flag Post Permalink
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.
― sctttnnnt (pgwp), Monday, 27 November 2017 20:45 (six years ago) link
it's not really my thing and i still think it's p impressive
― ToddBonzalez (BradNelson), Monday, 27 November 2017 20:50 (six years ago) link
Lorde album is great
― In a slipshod style (Ross), Monday, 27 November 2017 21:21 (six years ago) link
It is. Even though it's not among my faves, it's worth one breath as opposed to a thousand TayTay thinkpieces imo.
― Le Bateau Ivre, Monday, 27 November 2017 21:41 (six years ago) link
Not much into the whole Lorde album, but Green Light is one my tracks of the year
― Ⓓⓡ. (Johnny Fever), Monday, 27 November 2017 21:44 (six years ago) link
The Ryan Adams record is actually really good, too. Best since Love is Hell. #burningmyreponepostatatime
― Le Bateau Ivre, Monday, 27 November 2017 21:45 (six years ago) link
yeah it rules
― brimstead, Monday, 27 November 2017 21:58 (six years ago) link
anyone who has the portugal the man album on their list is a cop
― maura, Monday, 27 November 2017 22:00 (six years ago) link
sorry, rules are rules
Lots of the Lorde album is way better than Green Light, which I've come round to a bit, but still doesn't feel like the song matches up to the scale of the production.
― Matt DC, Monday, 27 November 2017 22:05 (six years ago) link
Best random thing I've recently discovered off a list is Nadia Reid. Preservation is gorgeous, as is I Come Home to You.

i saw lorde's show on sunday and not that i wasn't already head over heels for the album but it's now cemented itself as a classic album for me

did Portugal. The Man have a crossover mainstream breakthrough this year? been seeing their name from a lot of people i didn't expect. feel like it's been ages since i listened to that stuff (circa survive, dredg, the sound of animals fighting)
― flappy bird, Monday, 27 November 2017 23:34 (six years ago) link
did portugal. the man ever sound like circa survive. wait don't tell me
― ToddBonzalez (BradNelson), Monday, 27 November 2017 23:43 (six years ago) link
yeah, i live in the pac nw and the breakthrough of Portugal. The Man into the mainstream - which i didn't even know about until i saw them perform on the AMAs - is def the weirdest musical story of 2017, imo

i didn't realize portugal the man was a thing anyone cared about before their limp crossover hit this year

Lorde album is great, and Louvre has one of the years best lyrics in it: 'we're the greatest, they'll hang us in the Louvre / down the back, but who cares, still the Louvre'
