WOO
That's fucking beautiful Long live King Jizz!
The New Sound by Geordie Greep though this was a stellar year for albums imo and it's hard to pick just one
Absolute Elsewhere by Blood Incantation.
Songs of a Lost World by The Cure
Imaginal Disk by Magdalena Bay, though almost shared 1st place with Charli XCX' BRAT remix album.
Thought I'd see more BRAT in this thread. I guess lemmy just doesn't serve cunt like I'd hoped.
Definitely a tie between Where Have "All The Merrymakers Gone?" (Harvey Danger), "Example" (Four Squirrels), and "Four" (Blues Travelers). Definitely my most played and favorite albums of 2024.
As of this year, it's looking like "Ten Thousand Fists" (Disturbed) is taking the lead as my favorite. We could see an upset folks!
PowerNerd by Devin Townsend
CHROMAKOPIA
The only "real" album that came out in 2024 that I listened to start-to-finish was Hyperdrama by Justice. It got a lot of flak online for being "uninspired" etc etc, but I think that mostly speaks to how great their first two studio albums were. The opening track on this one features Tame Impala and has an equally awesome music video.
After that, second place would be a tie between two 2024 live albums: ¡Blow it … at Madison's Quinceañera! by Me First and The Gimme Gimmes and Beast of Horns by They Might Be Giants. I got the latter on vinyl for Christmas and it's a lot of fun if you're a fan.
Hey someone else who likes Justice and They Might Be Giants!
Missed that they had a new album, thanks!
- Do Not Go To War With The Demons Of Mazandaran by Lowen.
- Erosion / Avulsion by Hidden Mothers
- Bloom & Decay by Dawn Treader
- Absolute Elsewhere by Blood Incantation
- Hellfenlic by The Infernal Sea
I haven't listened yet but holy shit that first album cover is the most realistic depiction of the shit I see while tripping. Mate that with Mayan shit and mating in general. Although it already has the mating down.
I like Sleep.
The year just started, I haven't even had a chance to record my annual 12 Farts Of The Year yet..
They had a hard act to follow after their nearly perfect self-titled album, but Cure was almost as good, and that is mighty praise indeed.
A Fortress Called Home by Seven Spires
Jimmy Clifton - Crucified in Christ Not your typical Christian album.
Enjoyed 'Yesterwynde' by Nightwish a lot last year
Porter Robinson - Smile!
Wavedash - Tempo
objectively "the new sound" by geordie greep
personally (as a mega fan of THD) "exploitopia" by that handsome devil
All born screaming by St. Vincent
The opera singer Lisette Oropesa's Mozart aria album. An absolute perfect voice with impeccable technique.
The Last Dinner Party's Prelude to Ecstasy.
NOTHING MATTAHS
Brat
Time II by Wintersun. It was a long wait, but I'd almost call it worth it, 'cause the album is so good.
definitely aura safari - sensory blending
Different pick from most, but I really enjoyed "SMILE! :D" by Porter Robinson. I might be biased though. Porter is my all time favorite artist.
I forgot SMILE :D released this year! Also a really great album!
It really is! Although I still believe nothing will beat Nurture. That's not just Album of the year, it's the GOAT.
The Poetic Edda by Synestia and Disembodied Tyrant
All About the Bones by Chris Smither:
https://youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_m5juHHLewlTZVC2XvbjZH-HKvRFeJHa1c
My favorite track:
I like this a lot. I've never had a record make me hungry before but gawdamn now I want that Cajun suppah.
He's got you covered!
Beans and okra would be just great right now. My wife made banging cabbage stew yesterday so Imma eat that.
Night Palace by Mount Eerie for me
Maybe seconded by The New Sound by Geordie Greep
"Real Death" will always be the first song I think about when hearing someone mention "Mount Eerie"
:( First you're there, and then you're not.
Matt's Missing by Matt Martians
The album that was released in 2024 that got the most plays was The Queen of Spades by Koan.
The album that I played the most was Unfold (2020) by Icarus
The Past Is Still Alive by Hurray for the Riff Raff.
Easily one of my most played of 2024. Shame I missed them when they came through my city. Loved the songwriting, the music and the singing. The whole album was strong and the vibe resonated with me.
Mine is 'Sangs of a Lost World' by 'the Cure'. It may even be my favourite Cure album.
