why have I still not listened to Timbuktu?
new additions since my last post:
They Hate Change - Finally, NewBeth Orton - Weather AliveMakaya McCraven - In These TimesAri Lennox - Age/Sex/LocationRachika Nayar - Heaven Come CrashingAsake - Mr. Money With The Vibe (not really AOTY but promising)
― rob, Wednesday, 28 September 2022 13:38 (one year ago) link
I’d say Asake is very much AOTY material.

perhaps. I meant that parenthetical to be more ambivalent: I thought it was brilliant on first listen, but that impression has faded a little since

myd album was ok i thought but pray for me is 10/10
― nxd, Wednesday, 28 September 2022 16:09 (one year ago) link
but I'll give the whole record a relisten, might work better in the autumn
― nxd, Wednesday, 28 September 2022 16:28 (one year ago) link
Thanks, Alfred. Wouldn't have checked out the Amanda Shires album otherwise.
A few of my favs that I haven't seen mentioned:
Tomberlin - i don't know who needs to hear this..Two Shell - Home & Icons EPsSudan Archives - NBPQ

Beth Orton def deserves to be in the running.
I'm still hyped about that Yeule album. It may end up being my top pick. It's just everything I love about music in 2022.

I think the MYD might be the best dancepunk album but admittedly Ill be a little disappointed if its still my #1 of the year by Februaryq

several great albums this past week, all of which deserve serious consideration here:
Camron and ATrak - U Wasn't ThereAlhaji Waziri Oshomah - Muslim Highlife of...Vieux Farka Toure and Khruangbin - AliMakaya McCraven - In These TimesThe Comet Is Coming - Hyper Dimensional Expansion Beam
― “Cheeky cheeky!” she trills, nearly demolishing a roadside post (forksclovetofu), Thursday, 29 September 2022 05:37 (one year ago) link
I listened to that Comet is Coming; its def in my top 10 now for sure
― everdose of cloverness (Drugs A. Money), Thursday, 29 September 2022 15:10 (one year ago) link
death's dynamic shroud - Darklife is an instant contender.
I'll need a few more listens to fully absorb it (there is a LOT going on) but it's already resonating big time. Maximalist hyperprog feels like an apt descriptor.

would hesitate to say that cola is "fka" as ought so much as it's the guitarist/singer and bassist from ought's new band, not a direct continuation. also deep in view is really great

Sorry folks, my stupid phone (and stupid me for never spellchecking posts)
― Urbandn hope all ye who enter here (dog latin), Thursday, 29 September 2022 20:37 (one year ago) link
Well... Cola really don't sound too different from Ought, and they formed pretty much as soon as Ought disbanded. They're like a more stripped-down and minimal version of themselves and it works as a trio
― Urbandn hope all ye who enter here (dog latin), Thursday, 29 September 2022 20:39 (one year ago) link
I can't get excited about this Cola record. I think Tim Darcy's voice just does nothing for me.
― The Ghost Club, Thursday, 29 September 2022 20:44 (one year ago) link
Thanks for the tips on Makaya McCraven and The Comet Is Coming. Both these albums are great, need to give them a few more spins.
― The Ghost Club, Sunday, 2 October 2022 06:31 (one year ago) link
The Shygirl album has vaulted into AOTY contention for me. 33 minutes, 12 tracks, mostly bangers.

Have been listening to this Jockstrap album a lot lately. "Concrete Over Water" in particular is really doing it for me.

Only 2/3 of the new Dawn collaboration has been released but it's been on heavy rotation recently
https://dawnrichard.bandcamp.com/album/pigments
― Indexed, Wednesday, 19 October 2022 19:53 (one year ago) link
Yeah that Dawn Richard album is already shaping up to be AOTY material. Most exciting 21/10 release imo. But I'll also give Taylor and Carly Rae a spin.
