Just realized I accidentally deleted Squid from my list...and I had it at #3!
 
Probs too late and I didn't really listen to enough new music this year to justify making a list but what the hell

The only four albums I really consistently listened to this year
  • Damon Albarn - The Nearer the Fountain, More Pure the Stream Flows (20 pts)
  • underscores - fishmonger (20 pts)
  • The Sonder Bombs - Clothbound (20 pts)
  • Tyler, the Creator - Call Me If You Get Lost (20 pts)
And some points to support my homies @Rip_City and @Jonathan Y
  • Squid - Bright Green Field (10 pts)
  • Mach-Hommy - Pray for Haiti (10 pts)

Since I was late to the party I only went through my Discogs from 2021. However, I did stream that TWIABP album and it is definitely deserving. It just wasn't in front of me when I was making my list.

Yes!! I must have listened to that album non stop for two weeks when it came out. I was so bummed I had to miss their Atlanta show that month.

Just wrapping a listen of TWIABP right now thanks to your posts. Not really my bag, personally, but I can recognize that it is definitely quite good and worthy of the love you're giving it.

I'm glad you listened! I have the bias of being pretty nostalgic towards the band. Lots of late night road trips jamming to their earliest stuff on repeat!
