Recommend Me an Album from 2019

[gaporter]

This was my listening club selection, but Pom Poko - Birthday

I'm so behind on the Listening Club... but I will listen to this, along with other albums I've missed out on in there soon!

 

[gaporter]

Black Midi - Schlagenheim (Noise Rock/Math Rock/A Really Fucking Fun Album)

Way ahead of you on this one! Strong AOTY contender for me!

Since you’re already on this I got:
Freddie Gibbs & Madlib - Bandana

appleseed cast - the fleeting light of impermanence

I’m hearing good things about this one, how does it stand against the rest of their discography?

Ok so your list will get out of control pretty soon but...I recommend this to anyone who will listen: Josin - In the Blank Space. She's a Korean German multi instrumentalist/producer/singer. Her debut album is a gorgeously dark, brooding, atmospheric, rising and falling piece rich in emotion and melancholy. She has a Thom Yorke-ish timbre at times and some of these tracks can resemble a Yorke ballad but not in an overly derivative way. I love it.

I'll give you a few (mostly rock) genres to pick from

Industrial metal: Rammstein - Untitled
Electronic groove metal: Death Therapy - Voices
Alternative rock: Bring Me The Horizon - Mantra
Art/progressive rock: O.R.k. - Ramagehead
Blues rock: Rival Sons - Feral Roots
Electronic/dance/new wave: Blaqk Audio - Only Things We Love
Blues pop: Maddie Poppe - Whirlwind
Trap pop: Billie Eilish - When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?
Country: George Strait - Honky Tonk Time Machine

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.

Lucky! Jones was great. Pumas and Finnigan aren’t coming close to me!

I gave the Rammstein a try and couldn't really vibe with it personally. Idk maybe it was just too German for me? Lol
And I've already been on the Billie Eilish train, but the rest of the albums you mentioned are all new to me so thanks for the recommendations!

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!

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

This is pleasant. Thank u kindly.

@Teeeee coming in with the heat (as if I expected anything else?)

High profile pop that I can't stop coming back to: Billie Eilish

Unfortunately it feels like it's been a lesser year for rock music so far. And indy music has been sounding very same-same to me all year. I also haven't done as much digging and exploring this year, so maybe it's on me. But it's been a really good year for higher profile rap and pop music. I think pop music overall took a cool turn this year.
