So, this will probably end up being the AOTY right?
It'll be competing with Blackstar, AMSP, Bottomless Pit, and maybe TLOP.
For /mu/core AOTY maybe.
>>65428947
You don't think it'll be as popular with the mainstream audience?
>>65428965
I'm saying there are other good albums being released than the recurring /mu/core bands you're listing.
>only lists releases by already established artists
*yawn*
>>65428983
What are some other albums releasing/released that you think should get AOTY?
>>65429023
New records from Nap Eyes, and The Savage Young Taterbug have both been excellent
I wouldn't be surprised if the new Steve Gunn is fucking incredible either
>>65429023
Gensho
>>65429023
Anna Meredith - Varmints
Xiu Xiu - Twin Peaks
The Drones - Feelin Kinda Free
Ulaan Passerine - The Great Unwinding
Steven R. Smith and Dirk Serries - Hymnal
All good albums. It just amazes me that people only ever mention the same few artists, which also happen to have been /mu/core for a decade.
swans will blow it the fuck out
I can't imagine Electroswing ever getting AOTY.
>>65429058
>savage young taterbug
>good
pick one
>>65429102
Oh look, it's this hilarious meme again.
>>65429102
why not, too "uncool" for mr. hip?
>>65428926
>Bottomless Pit
>TLOP
>AOTY
>>65429102
LE ELECTROSWING FEDORA MEME XDDDDD
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=csBPQ9E5z-8
>>65429930
I don't know man, Bottomless Pit is pretty fucking good.
>not listing Sleep Cycle
easily AOTY for me so far, I'm super excited for Wildflower though
>>65428926
I personally loved "Frankie Sinatra". I don't understand all the hatred for it. I've listened to the criticisms and I really don't think they hold up so well.
I don't think it's electro swing at all, yes it might relatively simplistic in comparison to say "Frontier Psychiatrist" but why must everything be so heavily layered or experimental? I thought it was a perfect release for a single considering Danny Brown is huge right now and DOOM never seems to fall short on rhymes.
I have pretty high hopes for this album and I don't think I'll be let down.
>>65430467
this
>>65428926
wow you're a brainless drone
>blackstar
>bottomless
>tlop
lol
>>65430527
>wah you can't like mainstream releases.
>>65430544
those are all very dull, bland, generic. I guess Blackstars okay.
one of my favorite albums last year was a fucking carly rae jepsen record, fuck off
>>65430560
I'm a Kanye stan and I was releatively disappointed by TLOP. Black Star and Bottomless Pit blew me away though. Especially Bottomless Pit. It's probably currently my favourite Death Grips release. Didn't think that would happen.
>>65430560
>>65430527
found the hipster lol
>>65430576
That makes no sense, most hipsters like all those albums hes hating on. Just saying
>>65430560
>favourite record of last year was a pop record
>david bowie's black star was bland
opinion disregarded
If the rest of Wildflower is like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=csBPQ9E5z-8 , it'll probably end up as my AOTY.
>>65430594
It felt....boring. He could've done something more interesting.
Carly's record was my favorite, just one of the ones that stood out. Nice meme tho
AOTY has already been released tho
>>65430527
whats your aotysf
>>65430616
>boring
>done something more interesting
Are you fucking baiting me? CRJ's record wasn't bad but it wasn't blackstar
>>65430616
How can you justify such a bad opinion? Not even being a cunt but come the fuck on cunt.
why the fuck wasn't Subways the first single? fuckin' avalanches, man
>>65430680
I don't know why there's been so much backlash. I fucking loved Frankie Sinatra.
>>65430653
Two different genres entirely. Carly made a fun as hell pop record with great throwback melodies and sweet twee vocals that made me turn into a gay man.
>>65430648
Nothings exciting me but I haven't listened to much outside mainstream
I really enjoyed Tricot's EP though.
>>65430672
Why is my opinion "bad". Blackstar felt contrived and bland. David has done MUCH better in his career.
>>65430696
it's never good to assume but I assumed it'd be the first single since it's what played when you called the phone number... I guess it'll be out soon enough anyway
>>65430698
>gives people shit
>doesn't have an aoty
wew
>>65430729
Okay? Nice argument?
Lol, I would like for someone to wow me, musics been boring this year.
>>65430749
>Okay? Nice argument?
thats the exact point of aoty: it's all relative
>>65430759
I still don't get your point. It is all opinionated. I think the OP is somewhat of a /mu/ drone. Come ON, fucking TLOP AND MEME GRIPS for aoty?
It's standard /mu/-dronery
Again, /mu/-core can be good, very good (see carrie and lowell), but no.
>>65430698
You know fuck all about music.
>>65430779
Jesus fucking Christ faggot is it so hard for you to believe that not everything has to be released by some obscure band with 50 facebook likes? There is NOTHING wrong with liking musicians with a big fan base.
>>65430780
Hey, that's not nice desu senpai. I play quite a few instruments and mix and master.
Do you know anything? Who cares, it's all opinions.
Nice youtube reply tho
>>65430779
>I still don't get your point.
The entire point of aoty is thats its all relative within the year exclusively
>>65430816
You obviously didn't read any of my post
I love lots of popular musicians. Sufjan, Boards, I liked that Carly album.
You sound angry
>>65430749
>I would like for someone to wow me, musics been boring this year.
for example, this actually doesnt matter at all. You can hate literally every single album this year but still have an aotysf
>>65430833
Sufjan is popular amongst hardcore music fans and indieheads but I wouldn't call him mainstream by far. Bowie and Kanye are incredibly popular outside of the music scene.
>>65430823
I STILL don't get your point. Yes its relative within the year? So? what has that got to do with anything. Are you memeing me
>>65430853
see
>>65430850
aotysf = best you've heard
>>65430850
Tricot's EP, did you not read post? Does anyone read post?
That or Mark Pritchards album
>>65430851
Hes very mainstream anon, so is Carly
>>65430864
answered question here >>65430872
and here >>65430698
what's yours? I need more music senpai
>>65430872
>Carly
>Sufjan
They are not AT ALL comparable. I could ask pretty much everyone of my friends who Sufjan and Carly are and I bet any money that none of them have heard of Sufjan. You can bet they'd have heard of Carly though.
>>65430872
>Tricot's EP, did you not read post? Does anyone read post?
thats not an album
>under the sun > Blackstar, AMSP, Bottomless Pit, and maybe TLOP.
challenge accepted
>>65430890
The Impossible Kid by Aesop Rock is my favourite album this year so far. Check it out lad.
>>65430890

I feel like this is exactly what the world needs:
Dream Theater is getting a digital board game based off of their latest album The Astonishing.
It's in development right now and will be available soon for iOS and Android
as a free download with additional content available as in-app purchases.
Help the princess find her music player and save the kingdom from tyranny!
>>65430897
Really? I know so many people, esp tumblr-tards, who are obsessed with Suffy.
>>65430902
Oh come on an EP can still be your aoty.
Under the Sun was also pretty boring, had some great moments though.
>the second track
5/5 familia
>>65430917
Are you actually an aspie? It's like you can't accept that people have different views or opinions.
>>65430916
I didn't really care for this, I kinda shut it off after the first 30 mins, does it get better? They've done better
>>65430907
will listen tmrw ty familia
desu senpai
>>65430934
I'm the ONE of the FEW people here who does exactly that. I am fine with your opinions, but some are outrageous to me. Just like what I am saying might be outrageous to others
but again
>tlop
>pit
>aoty
No.
>blackstar
meh
>this fucking faggot doesn't like anything except carly rae fucking jepsen
colour me surprised
>>65430917
>Oh come on an EP can still be your aoty.
no its epoty
which is cutoff typically at 25 minutes but the shortest I have qualifying for aoty this year is magrudergrind at 23:30 so its just a guideline which again is all relative.
>>65430955
People are allowed to like whatever they fucking want you stupid contrived cunt. Who gives a fuck if it's popular. Jesus Christ you're actually fucking retarded. How do you cope in the real world.
>>65430942
>I kinda shut it off after the first 30 mins, does it get better?
not particularly but yes the 2 hours as a whole is better than just the first 30 minutes
this one poster is absolutely destroying me mentally
>>65430959
You sound VERY angry, you should relax. I like lots, musics been kinda meh these past few years unfortunately.

>>65430917
>the second track
Did you like Painting With? This reminds of it a lot except much mellower.
>>65431209
I listened to that single they put out before everything and it was bad desu so it offput me. I've been busy too
>>65431219
i like feed1 cause i love noisy industrial techno loads 2bh but the rest of the album (s?) is hardly like it
but yeah i understand its hard to put aside 4 hours lol
>>65430644
What is it?
>mfw album of the year is a fucking compilation of songs not good enough to be on an album
>>65429937
IT DON'T MEAN A THING IF IT AINT GOT THAT SWIIIIING

>>65431926
It would be if David didn't die.
>>65429081
or maybe your AOTYSF list fucking sucks
>>65429058
>Nap Eyes
>indie rock
into the trash it goes
>>65431926
Blackstar blows.
Bowie was a hack.
>AOTY
>TLOP
pick one faggot.
TLOP is the album of the century.
>>65429058
where can I get that The Savage Young Taterbug album? I can't seem to find it anywhere.
>>65429081
>amazed that people on /mu/ like /mu/core
what an astute observation
>>65428926
Frankie Sinatra was kind of bland, but the little snippets in the teaser video sounded amazing.
I'm still hyped.
it'll probably be my aoty
>>65432197
This poster listens exclusively to Neutral Milk Hotel.
>TLOP
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
radiohead has had aoty every year theyve released an album in the 21st century, this year will be no different
>>65429023
Mark Pritchard - Under the Sun
This album is the sound of the future
>>65428926
>It'll be competing with Blackstar, AMSP, Bottomless Pit, and maybe TLOP.
>and maybe TLOP.
>and maybe TLOP.

>>65429081
>Xiu Xiu - Twin Peaks
I have the vinyl and love it but you're a fucking imbecile if you think that's anywhere close to an AOTY contender.
You're just being a contrarian
>>65430714
Contrived is never used properly with music and bland is a nonsense word when it comes to art.
>>65431438
I just compared the two and they do sound exactly the same.
>>65429081
>>65429081
The Drones - Shitty derivative australian (I realize that that is redundant) post punk
Anna Meredith - boring edm
Xiu Xiu - disqualified on the grounds that the music is all 25 years old and written by a genius
>>65430508
people seem to forget that swing has very particular bass and drum rhythms and that electro swing has those plus EDM. I'm pretty sure that the reason people are saying this is because of the fact that it "sounds old". It's a pretty standard drum kit sample tho that is just classic hip hop and the avalanches are pretty well known for making this kind of music already. I think people have only heard Frontier Psychiatrist and haven't heard the rest of SILY or their post SILY output, because if they had, Frankie Sinatra wouldn't be so confusing to them.
>>65430680
they probably wanted to kill the hype a bit, cause it was bound to disappoint with the level of hype it had before frankie sinatra
>>65428926
LCD Soundsystem how has nobody mentioned them
>>65430779
>see carrie and lowell
Into the trash this opinion goes
>implying this isn't AOTD
This album art is beautiful. It has so many unconventional colors that flow so seamlessly together... This album will by AOTY.
>>65439752
FUCK I forgot about this too
