2016 Mid-Year Album Lists Thread • Page 7

No thrice and pup as a top 5 idk seems like a stretch. Also they had modern baseball ranked higher than goodness can't get behind that one.

damn 1975!!!!!!!!!!

 

I'm posting reviews for my top 10 albums of the midyear, starting today with o'brother

2016’s Midyear Best #10: o’brother

 

Here's my #9, Parker Millsap

2016’s Midyear Best #9: Parker Millsap

 

Adding:

Architects - All Our Gods Have Abandoned Us
If These Trees Could Talk - The Bones of a Dying World
Nails - You Will Never Be One of Us
Pup - The Dream is Over
Look Mexico - Uniola

 

Listen to 2016 favorites by Bryan Williams on @AppleMusic.
Connecting to the iTunes Store.

I made a playlist of all of my favorite records from this year. Check it out!

 

Yesssssss. I've been wanting to check out Nails. Pup barely fell off my top 10 but I could imagine them still landing on my year-end list after spending more time with it. Also, I bought Architects the day it came out but only finally listened to it this past Sunday. Incredible. Also a strong contender for my year-end list. Regardless of lists though, Architects do something I usually don't care for...but they do it SO FREAKING WELL. Blows me away.

 

With the amount you talk about the Hotelier I'm sick they didn't make it on this playlist

 

I normally don't get into that cliché metalcore anymore, but fuck me running, they do it well.

 

Redid my list in the OP, mostly the same but added like 10 albums to the mix.

 

the National doesn't exactly make electronic pop

 

Best Songs of 2016 (So Far)
Best Albums of 2016 (So Far)

 

Weezer
Thrice

Deftones

Red Hot Chili Peppers

 

I'm also adding The Body & Full of Hell - One Day You Will Ache Like I Ache

 

Finished parts #8 and #7

2016’s Midyear Best #8: The 1975
2016’s Midyear Best #7: Hiromi

 

1. Hotelier - Goodness
2. Hot Hot Heat - Self Titled

6. Saosin - Along the Shadow
7. Tancred - Out of the Garden
