Recommend Me an Album from 2019

[gaporter]

This is kind of a weird idea for a thread, but wanted to take my chances and see if this is an idea people are willing to go for.

I lamented in the Best Music of 2019 thread that I feel like I haven't heard many projects this year that I actually really enjoy. I want to see if y'all can help me change that. Just post in this thread an album from this year you really like or think I might like and I'm obliged by the law of N&G to listen to it and give my thoughts. It can be from any genre, any artist or whatever. The only rule is it needs to be from this year!

As a sidenote, don't assume I've heard anything just because it's a really acclaimed or popular album. You'd be surprised what I've overlooked!

So this is a folk album by an Irish artist called Anna Mieke. It’s her debut album and I really like it, it’s beautiful!

I heard this two or three times when it first dropped, but this is a perfect opportunity to listen to it again!

Hey! I was going to post that!

I really like the idea of this thread. For me, there's been an overwhelming amount of music that I have enjoyed, so I'm happy to share!

The punk in me wants to recommend one of many great albums, but I'm going to mix it up and recommend one of the debut albums that caught me off guard.

SOAK - Grim Town is my AOTY so far.

I think this was on my list of albums to listen to at some point but it ended up getting swept under the rug and I never got around to it, so thanks for bringing it back up!

SOAK - Grim Town is my AOTY so far.

If it's @Teeeee 's AOTY, it's got to be quality. Very excited to hear this!

This is another local artist I’ve been meaning to check out for a while too. What kind of music does she make?

I would say poppy folk? Singer songwriter but not as angsty as some can be. Although some of it is angsty. Give it a whirl! I'd love to hear peep's thoughts.

It’s late here now but I’ll definitely give it a go on Spotify on my way to work tomorrow, I’ve been needing new music for my commute!

Have heard Durand Jones and loved it, but been sleeping on the other two. Will check them out!

Black Pumas is fire, I might like it more than Durand and Kelly Finnigan...

...gong to see Durand in August and hoping to see Black Pumas when they hit Dublin in November.

Art rock (sounds like an anime opening song)

There's nothing about that description I don't like! I'm getting a ton of new stuff to listen to myself, hope everyone else is too!

 

[gaporter]

Already quite the list going! Thnx peeps, will get to listening tonight / tomorrow!
