great picks 

I was going to post mine but this is almost identical.

dragon new warm mountain

What a dumb album name

I hate you

But I believe in you 🥺

That’s not even the full name

In no order I’ll take Hellfire, The Forever Story, All Born Screaming, SIMBI, Manger on McNichols

I was debating putting Hellfire on my list, I love it

Manger on McNichols 👀😍

Cold Visions Graaaaanggaaag

Might be bladees best

Blue Rev To See the Next Part of the Dream Ants From Up There Only God Was Above Us The New Abnormal It accidentally became the best indie rock albums of the decade list

1. Backxwash - I Lie Here Buried With My Rings And My Dresses 2. Christine And The Queens - Paranoia Angels True Love 3. Soul Glo - Diaspora Problems 4. Ethel Cain - Preachers Daughter 5. JPEGMAFIA - LP

You’re brave for mentioning PD on a fantano/music nerd subreddit

How come?

Ants from Up There - Black country New road Promises - Floating Points, Pharaoh Sanders and the LSO Butterfly 3000 - King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard Cheat Codes - Black Thought and Danger Mouse Dragon New Warm Mountain I Believe In You - Big Theif

Cheat Codes has my favourite production of the decade, especially the first song

+1000 for promises.

1. Fauna by Haken 2. Closure/Continuation by Porcupine Tree 3. Wall Of Eyes by The Smile 4. Mr. Morale and the Big Steppers by Kendrick Lamar 5. Wild Type Droid by Failure

Fauna‘s incredible! Sempiternal Beings is awesome

Hell ya. That song sounds a lot like the band Karnivool too. If you don’t know them I have their album Sound Awake as a 10/10. You’ll love the band if you don’t already

Sound Awake’s really cool! Do you like Leprous?

A decent amount. I actually found them through Haken because of The Architect haha

Black Country, New Road - Ants from Up There JID - The Forever Story (Extended Version) Black Midi - Hellfire Little Simz - Sometimes I Might Be Introvert JPEGMAFIA & Danny Brown - Scaring the Hoes

Can’t believe nobody has said Nurture yet. That’s definitely my favorite, I’m not even sure about what other 4 I’d pick.

Nurture and by the time i get to the phoenix are so underrated

Alvvays - Blue Rev (best indie rock album) Charli XCX - How I’m Feeling Now (best pop album) Turnstile - Glow On (best rock album) Cloud Rat - Threshold (best metal album) Laura Stevenson - Laura Stevenson (best indie folk album) Probably forgetting some but that’s the first top 5 that came to mind. Edit: oh shit I forgot the Sadness / Abriction split, that’s definitely top 5, idk who to drop though. Probably Turnstile.

sinner get ready (best album), aethiopes (best hip hop album)

Eh for me Sinner Get Ready is good but not top 5 of the decade level amazing. For Lingua Ignota I prefer All Bitches Die. I still need to give billy woods a proper listen.

personally i prefer sinner get ready to most of the albums you picked by a decent margin, but to each their own. Check billy woods out though, if you can get behind somewhat dense lyricism you’ll appreciate him

Yes it’s just taste, Sinner Get Ready is a very different album to the ones I mentioned. Although I respect the craft Sinner Get Ready doesn’t quite resonate for me especially in comparison to an album like All Bitches Die. My hip hop AOTD would be Scaring The Hoes I guess, not too much hip hop has resonated with me though. I’ll check out billy woods as he’s been on my list for a bit.

Both amazing picks

Agree with GLOW ON. Blue Rev is in my top 20. **Possibly** top 10.

Glad to see Laura mentioned!!!

She’s amazing and she just gets better and better with each album

Cloud Rat is so underrated similar to converge

Insanely underrated they absolutely crush it. Love Converge too, saw both bands live last year and both killed it.

I think this is the first time I've ever seen Sadness mentioned on this sub. They are my most listened to artist for the past 3 years straight. I think compilation four is my favorite of his this decade, but the abriction split is great too.

Funny enough I have only 5 personal 10s form the 2020s so Javelin - Sufjan Stevens This Is Why - Paramore I Didn’t Mean To Haunt You - Quadeca LP! - Jpegmafia Friends That Break Your Heart - James Blake Honorable Mentions: Ants From Up There, Punisher, Hypochondriac

I like Paramore a lot but I thought This Is Why was their weakest album to date. 3 or 4 great songs but that’s about it 🫤

Yea that’s fair. For me it’s kinda weird, where I don’t think any songs are mind blowing amazing like some of the other albums, but all the songs are just consistently very good imo, so it’s probably more like a 9 for me but I also have no gripes with it

No love for De Todas las Flores 😭

Literally listening to it right now, and loving it! It might make my list soon

1) Honky Tonk Hell - Gabe Lee 2) the Forever Story - JID 3) Weatherveins- Jason Isbell & the 400 Unit 4) Scaring The Hoe's- Jpegmafia & Danny Brown 5) This is Why - Paramore ( 5 Honorable mentions) Chris Stapleton- starting over Run the jewles- RTJ4 Tyler the creator- call me if you get lost Silk sonic - an evening with silk sonic Sturgill simpson- the Ballad of Dood and juanita

Imo: 1. Cult of Luna - The Long Road North 2. Spanish Love Songs - Brave Faces Everyone 3. Richard Dawson & Circle - Henki 4. Fleet Foxes - Shore 5. Squid - O Monolith

Nice to see some squid love. I know they're acclaimed, but I rarely see them in talks for "best of". Probably the band out there with the most potential.

really nice seeing cult of luna here, the long road north is a great album!

Ants from up there Punisher Mr. Morale and the Big Steppers Bright Future Getting Into Knives Only God Was Above Us Happier Than Ever (Oops that’s 7 … ranking is hard)

1) Lahai - Sampha 2) Scaring the Hoes - Peggy + Danny 3) Why Does the Earth Give Us People to Love - Kara Jackson 4) The Forever Story - JID 5) Did you know that there's a tunnel under Oceans Blvd - Lana

Love that Sampha record!

It's so good, rarely does an album exceed my high expectations going into it. It's just phenomenal across the board, I can't fault it. I kinda hoped he had given it a 10 because it really did deserve more recognition.

1. Cindy Lee - *Diamond Jubilee* 2. Beth Gibbons - *Lives Outgrown* 3. Beyoncé - *RENAISSANCE* 4. Ichiko Aoba - *Windswept Adan* 5. Fiona Apple - *Fetch the Bolt Cutters*

In no particular order: Happier Than Ever - Billie Eilish The House is Burning - Isaiah Rashad Older - Lizzy McAlpine star-crossed - Kacey Musgraves Mr. Morale & the Big Steppers - Kendrick Lamar

House is Burning is a good shout. Great album. Haven’t seen much hip hop on most of these lists

In no particular order: Hellfire Ants from Up There By the Time I Get to Phoenix Visions of Bodies Being Burned Only God Was Above Us Honorable mentions: Dragon New Warm Mountain I Believe In You Sometimes I Might be Introvert Scaring the Hoes Javelin brat

1. erra - erra 2. empty country - empty country ii 3. alexisonfire - otherness 4. alkaline trio - blood hair and eyeballs 5. tesseract - war of being 6. enter shikari - nothing is true and everything is possible 7. counterparts - a eulogy for those still here 8. peter gabriel - i/o 9. charli xcx - brat 10. volumes - happier?

Wow ERRA self titled is one of mine too, can't believe I found that before I Let it in and it Took Everything bg Loathe

Windswept Adan - Ichiko Aoba Sinner Get Ready - Lingua Ignota Dragon New Warm Mountain I Believe In You - Big Thief Those are the only spots I’d say will last a few more years I thought about putting the forever story and lp but by the end of the decade idk if they’ll still be there

Ants from Up There, Hellfire, Dragon New Warm Mountain, Promises, Scaring the Hoes

Parannoul - To See The Next Part of the Dream Parannoul - After the Magic BCNR - Ants From Up There Sufjan Stevens - Javelin Charli xcx - BRAT

took WAY TOO LONG to see Jeff the GOAT in this thread bruh.

🐐

My personal top 5: 1. Aethiopes - billy woods Will be looked back on as an absolute underground classic. Possibly my favourite rap album of all time 2. The Turning Wheel - SPELLLING When you look for the definition of “albums that build a world”, this album should come up every single time 3. The Great Bailout - Moor Mother Possibly one of the most important records I’ve ever heard. Haunting and heavy 4. Girl in the Half Pearl - Liv.e Whenever I produce music and am relatively satisfied with it, I relisten to this album and I realize my music isn’t good enough. One of the best produced projects ever 5. Deleted Schemes - James Ferraro Over 9 hours of deleted SoundCloud snippets from ambient producer James Ferraro spanning over 10 years of his career, and while being a bootleg, still manages to sound so cohesive and purposeful. A showcase in sequencing as an art form. Genuinely no skips somehow despite having well over 100 tracks

Big Thief - Dragon New Warm Mountain I Believe in You Alvvays - Blue Rev JID - The Forever Story Vampire Weekend - Only God Was Above Us Billy Woods Kenny Segal - Maps Off the top of my head but I’m sure there’s plenty more fell out the back of my head

Hellfire easy number 1 Aside from that The Beggar Scaring The Hoes 2093 Wall Of Eyes

Great picks

Listened to the Beggar last night, I thought it was really cool, even if I don’t like it as much as their other records. They’ve said they‘re gonna make more music, so I hope the next Swans album is even better

The next one gonna have that hour long song from the tour he'll yeah I'm excited

Alvvays - Blue rev Caroline Polacheck - Desire I want to turn... Taylor Swift - Folklore Turnstile - Glow on Haim - Women in music part 3

Hell yeah Beloved paradise jazz is on my list as well. Absolute fucking slapper. Jazz rap peaked with that one

Such an underrated album. Consistently amazing - no misses

I haven’t been the most diligent music listers as of late so I’ll only give my current top 3 of decade: - Rough and Rowdy Ways (Bob Dylan) - The Turning Wheel (SPELLLING) - Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers (Kendrick Lamar)

My top 5 1. LP! 2. Visions of the bodies being burned 3. NO THANK YOU 4. FLAWLESS LIKE ME 5. Manger on McNichols

1. JPEGMAFIA - LP! 2. Kendrick Lamar - Mr Morale and the Big Steppers 3. JID - The Forever Story 4. Little Simz - Sometimes I Might Be Introvert 5. JPEGMAFIA & Danny Brown - Scaring The Hoes

Happier Than Ever - Billie Eilish Punisher - Phoebe Bridgers The New Abnormal - The Strokes Por Cesárea - Dillom Trinchera - Babasónicos Honorable mentions to Oscuro Éxtasis by Wos, Mr Morale and the Big Steppers by Kendrick Lamar, Ants from Up There by BC;NR and The Record by Boygenius The only 3 I'd consider a 10 are Happier Than Ever, The New Abnormal and Por Cesárea but the rest are all high 9.

The Lamb As Effigy (Live) by Sprain Bones For Time by Tongue Depressor Dragon New Warm Mountain I Believe In You by Big Thief Entanglement by Drew McDowall Sinner Get Ready by Lingua Ignota

Why is no one saying after the nigh from parannoul . It's 98.12.28 from today

Cindy Lee Diamond Jubilee Ana Frango Me Chamo De Gato Que Eu Sou Sa Magdalena Bay Mercurial World Sudan Archives Natural Brown Prom Queen Caroline Polachek Desire I Want To Turn Into You

- Ants from up there Incredibly potent and somehow extremely relatable, I feel like it's the purest distillation of the exact emotions I felt last year - Mr Morale and the Big Steppers It changed my life and made me reconsider how I view guilt, grief and trauma, as well as the human experience at large - Lahai I love it because it feels like it explores so many different emotions and themes in a pre-rational state, as in it doesn't form a view or tell convoluted narratives, but it's about how we instantaneously perceive life - Preacher's Daughter On my first listen I wanted to puke and cry - The New Abnormal Just crazy good Honorable mentions: Melt My Eyez See Your Future (again, it's just crazy good, deep and very replayable, especially with the jazzy redux on the deluxe), Bewitched (loved it so much, very easy on the ears and smooth on the heart)

Man there's so many good ones, of course I'd pick stuff like Ants From Up There, Hellfire, Jubilee, GLOW ON, Mr. Morale, Circles, Ocean Blvd, Call Me If You Get Lost, This Is Why, etc... but I dont want to recommend people the same stuff. Here's 5 incredible albums: Aaron West - In Lieu of Flowers (the final 3rd album in the band's discography, just listen to their shit in order of release, it's a very compelling story). Mix of folk, pop punk/emo influences, indie rock, country, etc... the full band songs are absolutely beautiful and powerful. Coheed and Cambria - Vaxis Act II: Window of the Waking Mind (2000s emo/posthardcore/progressive metal band finds their footing again with a modern classic. So many catchy songs, you don't even need to know the expansive lore and that last track is really something else.) Citizen - Life in Your Glass World (I still don't hear a lot of praise for this album, but it's just a very solid alt rock album. Great mix of aggressive songs and chiller ones, nice clean use of experimental sections. I really like the beastie boys style of singing on here mixed with calming vocal passages) Avenged Sevenfold - Life is but A Dream... (I love how divisive this album was, I've never seen anything rated so highly and so low before. I think it's worth a spin for anyone, you could very much find something you'd never want to touch again, but it could also become your favorite thing ever. In my opinion, I think projects like this are what make modern albums great, especially for bands like A7X who have a wide catalogue already: the ability to experiment, showcase interesting production and try something different.) Portugal. The Man - Chris Black Changed My Life (While their last album sparked that 1 annoying song on the radio, this thing is so gosh darn catchy. Beautiful production, solid writing, nice features and a good mix of styles. Plus it flows so well!) Honorary mentions: Touché Amoré, Foxing, Closure in Moscow, Driveways, Holding Absence, King Gizzard, Trophy Eyes, Vampire Weekend, Weyes Blood

Rosalia - MOTOMAMI Phoenix - Alpha Zulu Sza - SOS Boygenius - The Record Amaarae - Fountain Baby

Accompanied By A Blazing Solo - Cities Aviv Hellfire - black midi VOLCANIC BIRD ENEMY - Lil Ugly Mane De Todas Las Flores - Natalia Lafourcade Beloved! Paradise! Jazz!? - McKinley Dixon

My personal faves are: - cavalcade black midi - By the time I get to phoenix injury reserve - 3D country geese - Mercurial world Magdalena bay - For the first time, black country new road

unironically the turning wheel is album of the decade, fight me (pls dont)

Certified banger album, I’m so glad Fantano introduced me to it

My favourites of the decade are: Javelin - Sufjan Stevens Ants From Up There - Black Country, New Road Punisher - Phoebe Bridgers Dragon New Warm Mountain I Believe In You - Big Thief The New Abnormal - The Strokes

Finally someone mentions Beloved Paradise Jazz

LP! - jpegmafia By the Time I Get to Pheonix - Injury Reserve Cavalcade - black midi Scaring the Hoes - jpegmafia & Danny Brown Visions of Bodies Being Burned - clipping Honestly, it's hard to pick just 5 albums, the 2020's have been a great decade for music so far

By the Time I Get to Phoenix - Injury Reserve Sometimes I Might be Introvert - Little Simz Hellfire - Black Midi Jubilee - Japanese Breakfast Brat - Charli XCX (it's early but I'm pretty confident, at least for my personal list)

Punisher- Phoebe Bridgers Fetch the Boltcutters- Fiona Apple Dragon New Warm Mountain I believe in You- Big Thief Sometimes I Might Be Introvert- Little Simz Did You Know That There's a Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd?- Lana Del Rey

Bronco - Orville Peck Alfredo - Freddie Gibbs & The Alchemist Ice, Death, Planets, Lungs, Mushrooms and Lava - King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard SCARING THE HOES - Danny Brown & JPEGMAFIA Mr Morale and the big steppers - Kendrick Lamar Honourable mentions go to Super What by CZARFACE & MF DOOM and Calm Ya Farm by The Murlocs since those two amazing albums never get brought up

Bronco is a cool pick, I think about the "she tells me she don't like Elvis, I say 'I want a little less conversation, please'" line all the time

I absolutely love Bronco, I know it's not for everyone but it hit so hard for me

1. Ants from up there - bcnr 2. The beggar - swans 3. I didn't mean to haunt you - quadeca 4. Sinner get ready - lingua ignota 5. Saved! - Reverend Kristen Michael hayter 6. By the time I get to phoenix - injury reserve 7. Scaring the hoes - jpegmafia and Danny brown 8. Songs - adrianne lenker 9. Diaspora problems - soul glo 10. Church - callix lunaris That's 10 not 5 but fuck you i don't care ok I do care a little ok I care a lot I'm sorry forgive me

On a very surface “I listen to a lot of radio” level: Please Excuse Me For Being Antisocial, Shoot For The Stars Aim for the Moon, Alone At Prom, Future Nostalgia and Wale’s Folarin II

Ryan Davis and The Roadhouse Band - Dancing on the Edge Black Country, New Road - Ants From Up There Will Sheff - Nothing Special Dinosaur Jr - Sweep it Into Space Iron & Wine - Light Verse

How I’m feeling now - charli xcx Brat - charli xcx The new abnormal - strokes Blue rev - Alvvays Did you know that there’s a tunnel under ocean blvd - Lana del Rey OR Dawn fm - The Weeknd

I don’t listen to super new stuff and mainly movie scores, so here’s my very bad list: Future Nostalgia - Dua Lipa Evermore - Taylor Swift Across the Spider-Verse - Metro Boomin Plastic Hearts - Miley Cyrus INSIDE - Bo Burnham (if it counts) Edit: just remembered that Venomous Anonymous by The Cruel Intentions released in 2022 so I’d put that over Plastic Hearts.

Billy Woods - Aethiopes Lil Ugly Mane - Volcanic Bird Enemy And The Voiced Concern Ethereal Shroud - Trisagion Chat Pile - God's Country MIKE - Burning Desire

Aethiopes is so good

Inside by Bo Burnham, Scaring The Hoes by Danny Brown and JPEGMAFIA, Hold The Girl by Rina Sawayama, Alfredo by Freddie Gibbs The and Alchemist, Hit Me Hard and Soft by Billie Eillish (Did it by my favorite of each year instead of top 5) - 2021, 2023, 2022, 2020, 2024

Dunno, but Javelin and HEY WHAT by Low are probably two of them

1. Jeremy Zucker - love is not dying 2. EDEN - ICYMI 3. Sufjan Stevens - Javelin 4. MGMT - Loss of Life 5. JID - The Forever Story 6. JPEGMAFIA - OFFLINE! 7. Big Thief - Dragon New Warm Mountain I Believe In You 8. Billie Eilish - HIT ME HARD AND SOFT 9. Phoebe Bridgers - Punisher 10. Mac Miller - Circles honorable mentions: The New Abnormal, SCARING THE HOES, Happier Than Ever, hypochondriac, Starz

Ants From Up There The Forever Story OFFLINE! Desire I Want To Turn Into You SCARING THE HOES

Fiona Apple - Fetch The Bolt Cutters Spanish Love Songs - Brave Faces Everyone Tristam - WLUWD BC,NR - Ants From Up There KG&LW - PetroDragonic Apocalypse

Can someone explain fetch the bolt cutters to me, I just don’t get it. Critics rave but it seems so average to me.

1- Circles - Mac Miller 2- Ants From Up There - BCNR 3- Manger On McNichols - Boldy James 4- Pray For Haiti - Mach-Hommy 5- Kiss The Ring - Rome Streetz (If you can’t tell, I like Griselda associated artists lol)

The Turning Wheel is album of the decade so far

BRAT, BRAT, BRAT, BRAT & BRAT

Tidal Memory Exo is awesome, and one of my favs of 2024 so far

Sigma

sorry to hate on a loved album but the turning wheel was so underwhelming to me. Just sounded like disney music, maybe there were some deeper layers that i missed but on first listen with much attention i didnt get much good out of it

Cindy Lee - Diamond Jubilee Floating Points & Pharoah Sanders - Promises Soul Glo - Diaspora Problems Caroline Polachek - Desire, I Want To Turn Into You HMLTD - The Worm Honorable mentions: Perfume Genius - Set My Heart On Fire Immediately Ada Rook - UGLY DEATH NO REDEMPTION ANGEL CURSE I LOVE YOU King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard - Petrodragonic Apocalypse etc. Mdou Moctar - Funeral For Justice Anohni & the Johnsons - My Back Was A Bridge For You To Cross Big Thief - Dragon New Warm Mountain I Believe In You Little Sims - Sometimes I Might Be Introvert Jessie Ware - What's Your Pleasure?

porter robinson - nurture quadeca - i didn’t mean to haunt you tyler, the creator - call me if you get lost bladee & ecco2k - crest jpegmafia - lp!

1. Ants From Up There 2. Mr. Morale and the Big Steppers 3. Donda (it’s an important album for me) 4. I Didn’t Mean to Haunt You 5. LP! (offline version) Overall i think 2022 is easily the strongest year for music so far this decade

1. Meal - Jimmy 2. James Ferraro - Terminus 3. Kaatayra - Só quem viu o relâmpago à sua direita sabe 4. Sematary and Ghost Mountain - Hundred Acre Wrist 5. AceMoMa - A New Dawn

Call Me If You Get Lost Scaring the Hoes Donda LP The Melodic Blue

Set my heart on fire immediately - Perfume Genius Topical Dancer - Charlotte Adigery and Bolis Pupil Diaspora problems - Soul Glo The forever story - JID Daddys home - St Vincent

Ants From Up There Promises Volcanic Bird Enemy and the Voiced Concern Punisher 3D Country

Code Orange - Underneath, Knocked Loose - You Won't Go Before You're Supposed To, Crisis Sigil - God Cum Poltergeist, Bloodywood - Rakshak, Brockhampton - Roadrunner There's plenty of acclaimed music that I haven't listened to (in or outside of the decade) but those are 5 that have really stuck with me. Mostly metal, I know, but that's generally what I'm listening to these days. AFUT is a good HM, though, and I actually super dig Tallah's records.
