Thoughts?
>deafheaven
are they gonna make a "Best Jazz Albums" list with The Epic at the top?
>>61178501
>all fours
>only 13th place
>that fucking new locrian album is somehow place higher than All Fours
I liked ID but it doesn't even fucking stack up against All Fours
>mgla
Overhyped kvltfag shit that's gotten more attention than it should have
>baroness
Kill me
>new fucking bermuda
It may have been good but fucking christ, it's not even worthy of being in the top 20 of the year.
that being said good on them for balancing their now corporatized AOTY list with more specialist lists that at least try to offer a more genuine perspective.

>metal

Bunch of boring atmoshit, pleasantly surprised they included Paradise Lost amd Horrendous though

>Myrkur
lel
>Prurient
>Locrian
Not even metal
>>61178535
>ygg huur and scar sighted are only honorable mentions
I sort of want to cry now
>>61178501
Is Frozen Niagara Falls even metal?
>Leviathan only honorable mention
>Deafheaven best of the year
Shit taste as expected
>>61178545
Locrian is kind of sort of black metal, but they're almost definitely predominantly post-rock.
I knew they wouldn't include Leprous and Arcturus because pitchfork has hatred for prog but they deserved a mention
Is this Dead to a Dying World album good? Never heard about them before.
I wish Aria of Vernal Tombs was higher.

that Sannhet album is fucking tight
