I Love You, Honeybear is still my #1 and probably won't be topped until the new Julia Holter, OTC, or Titus Andronicus albums come out.
>>55526934
Great album.
>>55526957
I like Wilson's work a lot but this wasn't AOTY for me.
METZ II is also fucking phenomenal.
My most anticipated album of this year was Godspeed, and I really hate to say it but it didn't pack the punch that any of their other stuff did.
This is probably my most pleasant surprise of the year, and maybe too early to say but it's definitely my favorite of the year so far.
Kendrick's album for sure. Otherwise, probably arca's and bubblegum octopus' new stuff.
>>55526934
This is blowing my tits off at the moment.

>>55527337
hah GAY this album sucks.
Dan Mangan went downhill so quickly
>>55527282
AOTY, pic related is my #2
>>55526934
>>55527301

>>55526934
new Vaccines :^)
>>55527442
>>55527337
>>55527301
>>55527282
Excellent albums
>>55527207
His Coachella set sounded really good, but this album was a huge letdown
>>55527333
ADBA and their brand new songs are way better
>>55527471
See this guy >>55527305

>>55527138
Memes
>>55527457
This is a major improvement for Dan. I'm so sick of fucking Robots.
>>55526934
Could someone link me this?
The archived link seems to be dead.
This and Sauna. Both are beautifully executed representations of my two favorite types of music.
I've listened to this like 7 times is so good. It was great during the cold winter months and is great during these hot spring days.
>>55528920
underrated
>>55527474
Hey, I got this as a promo album for the student radio station I work at. Was expecting shitty stoner rock, but ended up being fairly impressed. More people need to hear about it.
>>55527154
Just got introduced to these guys recently and love their stuff. Got this album downloaded and ready to listen to soon.
>>55527510
Hey maybe you can help us become less p4k plebs?
Come on, show us how awesome you are bae. <3
>>55528568
Thats the most 6/10 album ive ever heard
>>55527474
hell yeah this is up there for me
>>55529017
check out their first album too it's fantastic
perfect blend of grunge and shoegaze
It's between this, I Love You, Honeybear, and Viet Cong.
>no jenny
wat
>>55529852
everyone realized it was garbage
>>55527111
genre of the suuns album?
>>55527333
The new songs they're playing are better than anything off this album.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jCEsL9wX-uQ
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C4_yCxNwUzo
>>55529934
dunno why people love to go completely overboard with their "opinions", I don't see a point to it.
It wasn't garbage it just wasn't the greatest album of all time ever made, which is what it was hyped up to be. there was no way it could have lived up to the hype.
>>55527111
that album sucked
>>55527356
Thank you friend!!!
>>55528960
This is fkn GREAT
>>55531425
any particular reason like maybe the lyrics?
>>55527016
>>55527018
>>55527138
>>55527282
good taste
1. Of Montreal - Aureate Gloom
2. Pinkshinyultrablast - Everything Else Matters
3. Kendrick Lamar - To Pimp A Butterfly
4. Napalm Death - Apex Predator Easy Meat
>>55527021
>>55527331
>>55527442
Nice. that Big Blood was fucking awesome.
>>55527154
hell yes. love this band.
>>55529185
Good man
>>55531712
I like this album, and it has a great soul feel compared to their debut, but I can't give it AOTY
>>55529975
it's true. the tracks are built to be heard live. just fucking wait and see them live and get your socks blown off :)
>>55531849
this
>>55530878
I disagree
>>55531889
That's the nastiest album cover I have ever seen.
so fucking good
>>55527021
Can't really contribute to this thread after this. Won't be able to contribute to these threads until this time 2016

>no barter 6
What in the world is going on
>>55531998
do you not think its flawed at all?
as much as I love it I cant give it aoty
This. Really psyched for the new DIANA album coming out soon.
>>55532068
i think this was a big step backwards for braids, and a couple of songs are absolutely, unbearably cringe-inducing.
Very disappointing.
>>55532055
AOTY doesn't have to be perfect. Just better than all the other imperfect albums that year.
I'd say it's flawed in the sense that it isn't as much of an "easy listen"/radio friendly album as GKMC. But that's not much of a criticism.
>>55532068
worst of their three albums, easily
>>55527442
>>55528720
>>55529185
>>55529852
>>55531849
>>55531951
These, plus: astrobrite - DELUXER
>>55532055
personally I think it's flawless, within reason. First listen had me severely fucked up and every listen is fresh for me
I have love for Jenny Death too
>>55532024
>k-pop general
>>55528869
Only right answer
>>55532406
so far I've found lp 2 to be average as fuck especially compared to the insanity of lp 1
>>55531979
I loved the singles but the album drags a little towards the end
waiting for Holly Herndon
Hot Chop and Thunder Bolt
>>55527474
This was mega disappointing after Deserve
>>55532268
Yeah i think the people here only like k pop or some shit
>>55531451
nah the music is way better than the lyrics
>>55532004
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAAHAAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHHAAHHHAHHAAHHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>55527333
I'm calling this my EPOTYSF, they made a huge mistake spreading the tracklist for no discernable reason and calling it a full album
>>55527442
Mine as well, so I'll put up one of my close runner ups.
>>55529810
Isn't this just his previous EPs bundled together though?
>>55533648
FUCK
>>55528730
>>55528920
does anybody have this albums to share?
anyone?
>>55534018
is this another band pulling a title fight or should I actually listen to it?
>>55534232
>>55534232
It definitely sounds like what TF put out, but it at least deserves a listen, at least in my opinion.
>>55532053
Punk AOTY by far. The only punk affiliated release I could see even touching this is the new Titus Andronicus. Excellent taste.
>>55531425
>>55528730
>>55527154
>>55527138
>>55527021
My other favorites so far.
I know its a weird shitposting meme at this point but I genuinely the Clarence Clarity album.
>>55534441
>Punk AOTY
agreed
>>55527199
this shit is insane
i feel like its reading my mind to sound exactly what feels right
its intelligent yet impulsive
>>55534606
>keep seeing this
>sax on cover
>think it must be jazz
>download excitedly
>its fucking memerap
>>55527018
>>55527282
>>55527408
>>55527474
>>55531951
good taste
this is mine as of now but we all know that Jim O'Rourkes new album will be objective AOTY
>>55534752
this cover is so good
>>55535516
yeah probably best of the year now that I think about it.
>>55531951
what is this one? im on a tablet and not entirely sure how to reverse image search
inb4 noise isn't music
Toundra - IV close second.
>>55527333
>>55527021
>>55532053
>>55527282
same
>>55527442
>>55528730
>>55528869
>>55528920
>>55527333
>>55534752
>>55535782
these were all solid as well
>>55526934
gotta check this out
fingers crossed there's a link in the archive
>>55535614
Unknown Mortal Orchestra - Multi-Love
Check it out, it's a fantastic record
>>55535451
thank you for saving me the time of checking that album anon.
doing gods work
>>55536482
my thoughts exactly
thank you for saving me the time of making that same post.
>>55536482
>>55535451
b-but its a joke... it really is AOTY jazz
>>55534983
I know man, it's an amazing album. I'm glad someone else has heard it!
this and Kendricks album honorable mention to niggas on the moon
>>55534259
it beats hyperview by a long shot though
>>55536567
wait, That's the kamsai washington album art?
I thought it was something else.
>>55531070
>>55531070
fuck yes!
>>55528920
great album
>>55527333
Mine so far.
Heard it live last night and it was amazing.
this and jenny death are the only real contenders so far. Heard some cool stuff that was posted ITT but none of them was really amazing.
>>55527474
my buddy hugo is the bassist. cool dude. works at school radio station
Anticipating new Prurient being my AOTY, but right now it's probably C&L, which is like the total opposite
>>55529975
Eh, I dunno... for me some of the shit on this album such as 'On GP' is genuinely GOAT level stuff.
Still probably my AOTY, though there's a lot of competition coming up too.
>>55531070
>>55537737
right on my niggerfriends
>>55528869
>>55526957
That was so boring.
>>55527356
>>55529852
>>55532197
These.
>>55532197
specifically tagging this a second time because it's seriously underrated right now
I really don't think anything will top this for me, but 2015 has been amazing so far.
>>55536276
Damn, didn't know they released a new album, awesome
>>55534123
p good
>>55526934
Excellent choice, my AOTYSF too.
>>55526957
It has grown on me.
>>55526934
>>55527301
>>55527471
>>55527474
>>55528720
>>55531425
>>55531951
all contenders for me
>>55539753
This.
>>55539753
fantano pls
>>55526934
So besides Julia Holter, what other albums are we looking forward to? I think Slowdive is coming out with one
>>55539753
best album to put on in a car with people that don't know whats up in 2015
>>55538350
wtf thats so cool
what school?
>>55543008
Chelsea Wolfe
>>55532854
I didn't like deserve that much on the first listen but now I fucking love it. Had a similar reaction to this one with the exception of Thousand Pounds which was awesome.
Also pic related is mine until the new titus andronicus becomes AOTD
>>55543008
(maybe) new joanna newsom
>>55543008
>>55544772
Chelsea Wolfe's "Abyss" should be out soon; haven't seen a date yet. Also new Thee Oh Sees and SKM have new ones coming.
Pain is Beauty was shitty as fuck. Hopefully her new album redeems her.
probably this.
Also bump?
![ratsonrafts-cvr-0315[1].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/ojj5REW.jpg "ratsonrafts-cvr-0315[1].jpg")
I am really loving the new Rats on Rafts.
>>55543008
no joy
grave babies
elvis depressedly
>>55526967
You have good taste sir, I agree FJM should take it this year. Gonna see him live in July, very excited.
>>55532053
was going to post this. A+
>>55528694
This really became better after a few lsitens
