boring year in any case
>>61102755
>kamasi
lol
>>61102755
really happy to see Jlin topping charts
>>61102778
divers got 14th place
>>61102780
?
>>61102794
I'm okay with it. I don't usually like footwork but this album was pretty good
>putting your wife's album in 5th place
lol come on
at least be less blatant and put it at like #32 or sth
>>61103237
The list was made by the entire staff
Partrish as fuck aside from Kamasi
Typical for The Wire
>>61102794
Seriously like from its release I've thought it's fucking GOAT but it never got attention until now
>>61102755
>The Necks - Vertigo
aww yiss, but jesus seeing Jlin everywhere is annoying
>>61103255
David Keenan is staff dumbass
>>61103318
It's annoying to see good music rewarded?
Like come on it's as great an album as Quarantine in 2012
>>61103396
Marcel's is garbage
>>61103414
at least it doesnt have pleb shit like TPAB or The Epic. much more unknown and obscure stuff in there
>>61103396
>>61103432
Fuck off Marcel
>>61103432
youd have to be pretty retarded to regard a samey unoriginal shoegaze band no 4 of the year
>>61103432
Haha we know it's you marcel
Where is No Now?
>>61103467
i was specifically referring to Tropes, Sparkling Wide Pressure, and John Wiese but okay.
>>61103467
Thank god someone called out that shit
Such a mediocre record
>>61103341
OK do you not know how aggregates work? The list in the OP was not made solely by Kernan. He did not put his wife's album at #5. The staff rankings averaged out to #5. Hope that was simple enough for you.
>>61103478
how can you deny that statement, though?
>>61103494
Those aren't unknown they're TMT core an you know that Marcel
>>61103390
it's good but not even top 10, but then again I'm not a fan of Quarantine
>>61103467
what about the other picks in that top 10
>>61103396
lol John Weise!
Someone got his mommy to drive him to the Smell.
>>61103518
Are you saying you are Marcel?
>>61103525
Tropes has never been covered by TMT or any known music publication.
>>61103480
where it belongs: trash bin
but really, half of the songs in this album are filler, the rest is divided between mildly interesting and passable
>>61103546
no i'm saying that how can you deny that TPAB and The Epic are pleb albums and Marcel's list has more unknown choices?
>>61103525
you could argue that TPAB and The Epic or HYIMW are as well but plenty of music publications share the same taste in artists.
isn't it a wonder why TPAB and In Colour are on so many lists? publications share tastes
it's not like one publication can praise an album and NO OTHER PUBLICATIONS AFTER THAT can because they did it first. that's not how it works.
>>61103581
correlating obscurity with quality and thinking mainstream releases can't be good is the true mark of the avant-teen plebeian
>>61103581
I don't follow, these are best-of-the-year lists, not random obscure albums?
>>61103623
>>61103628
well that's how most of /mu/ thinks duh
>>61103559
And that's good why?
>>61103581
Marcel just because you like some buzz shit doesn't make it better than other buzzshit.
At least The Wire is honest and not desperately pandering to TMT and RYM taste like you are.
>>61103560
I know its a cop out but the sound of the album was so messy that it being stupid inconsistent kind of added to it. Its like a bizzaro version of The 20/20 Experience.
>>61103659
>And that's good why?
You were literally the one who criticized him for having TMT-core or whatever on his list.
Isn't it a GOOD thing that he's discovering more unknown acts that haven't been covered by other publications like Tropes and shedding light on them?
>>61103659
Not the guy you're responding to but that's the problem.. the Wire isn't being honest for shit. If you look at the staff most of them either run labels or concerts so they have an interest in promoting what makes them more money, not for the Wire but personally.
>>61103740
Oh shut the fuck up with your bullhorn conspiracy shit. Their Top10 makes perfect sense quality wise. Grow up kid.
>>61103659
how do you know that Marcel isn't being honest with his list? his year-end list is unlike any other list I've seen from any other music publication.
>>61103740
yep these sure make a lot of money in the internet age
>>61103823
nobody said marcel wasn't honest. he's just shitty that's all
>>61103843
I read:
>At least The Wire is honest
>>61103823
Marcel you are picking stuff tht you think looks good to /mu/ and RYM
Tiny Mix Tapes list is the best tbqh
10. SOPHIE - PRODUCT
09. Björk - Vulnicura
08. Future - DS2
07. Sufjan Stevens - Carrie & Lowell
06. Elysia Crampton - American Drift
05. Oneohtrix Point Never - Garden Of Delete
04. Kendrick Lamar - To Pimp A Butterfly
03. James Ferraro - Skid Row
02. Young Thug - Barter 6
01. Arca - Mutant
>>61103931
if that's an actual list, then this year was horrible to them lol
>>61103931
Really bad compared to The Wire
You can see that they browse /mu/
>>61103960
you know it's not just /mu/ with this particular kind of taste right?
>>61103823
you answered your own question
>>61103930
how do you know that
>>61103968
It's basically teenage mutants
why didn't nos do the wire's hip-hop list this year? the new guy's list is way too british
>>61103960
Lol yeah one of their main writers C Monster is pretty much confirmed for being a regular on here
>>61102755
Ok /mu/, time to vote to see which was the most patrician of the 3 posted ITT:
http://strawpoll.me/6295922
>>61104024
well C Monster likes and supports Marcel so that's kinda a giveaway....
>>61104025
Ok marcel, time to keep turning your phone off and then back on so you can vote for yourself multiple times on strawpoll
>http://strawpoll.me/6295922
>>61103983
Marcel, your list is entirely stuff that is trendy on one or the other website
>>61104082
>>61104087
i was literally posting the ones posted ITT get off my back
>>61104025
>http://strawpoll.me/6295922
It's 33% all around right now, oh damn
>>61104087
hardly any of them popped up in the others' tops 10s though.
>>61104133
Marcel I post here and on RYM, I know tht people always push these as "alternative" AOTY to try and look different.
It's especially telling, Marcel, that you bashed The Epic but provided no Jazz albums on your list. You just bashed it to be cool instead of its poor quality, Marcel.
>>61104195
Marcel has extremely basic taste in jazz. Check out his ratings sometime. lol he gave BBNG 4.5 stars
>>61104218
that was just a single he rated, dude, not an entire album.
>>61104218
>>61104251
why the fuck do you people care about the opinion of an underage
>>61104251
Hi Marcel you can leave now
>>61104280
i was literally pointing out a fact
>>61104273
this
you guys seriously need to give him time to improve and mature. he'll be better in a few years.
>>61104289
Ok Marcel you can leave
>>61104322
it's a fucking single dude
what's wrong with it
>>61104372
it's
1) bad
2) bad
3) not good
>>61104372
Marcel.
You're too young for the site.
Leave.
>>61104468
why do you think I'm Marcel
you mentioned the BBNG thing and I was just informing you that it was a single
>>61104494
Because you're so obviously the one who posted the list and the person who exclusively shills for him
listening to dark energy for the first time rn
my sub looks like it's about to have a seizure lmao
