i think i'm at like 380

 

I've had a lot more time this year to listen to older albums, I'd guess that only a third of my first listens are 2020 albums

 

it’s probably closer to 1/8th for me haha

 

Update:

Finally broke past 300 with this weeks releases.

August was sadly a slow month for me, didn't connect with much outside of Dikembe, Narrow Head, Cave People, and Glass Animals.

September had a higher volume of releases but had me feeling similar to August. Deftones, Eastwood, Maxwell Stern, Svalbard, Slick Shoes, and Oscar Lang were my favorites of the month.

 

ya it's bad, i think i could count the 2020 releases i've enjoyed on maybe two hands and they're mostly from established, big name artists. new Rat Boy seems pretty cool, though.

also this seems relevant! Is Pandemic Brain Changing Your Taste in Music? You're Not Alone

 

I think I’m up to around 750 for the year but stopped seriously tracking around 650 as it got to be a pain and feel too much like work instead of something fun

 

I'm trying to figure out how I missed that Gambino album.
Hell my birthday was in April.

 

its big collection thanks for sharing

oh no, no one else will care, but I just realized I fucked up in my numbering. Somehow I accidentally went from 463 to 434. So since then my list has been about 30 off. Now I gotta go back and fix it all Aahhhhhh

 

if only there were a way to keep your entire list in one post

Still need to listen to: The Strokes, Bright Eyes, The Front Bottoms, Carly Rae Jepsen, Katy Perry and Blackpink. Also waiting on Ariana Grande, Smashing Pumpkins and McCartney III to come out.

 

If you liked Stand Atlantic I highly recommend Self Care by Yours Truly!

 

Nice I'll add it to my list! I've never listened to their original music before, but I did watch their Like A Version cover of Don't Look Back in Anger. They sounded great!

 

Updated through October. Its getting to the point in the year where stuff is really slowing down and I'll probably end up going back to see what I've missed this year. Any recs are welcome!

Off the top of my head, these are the only records left I'm anticipating this year:

Seahaven
Novo Amor
Jesu
King Gizzard
Smashing Pumpkins
I Am The Avalanche
Fireworks (maybe?)

 

Damn, there are so many recommendations here, don't even know what to start listening!=)))

 

I somehow and realizing that even though I'm at 562 albums tracked, I somehow didn't even track big ones like Dua Lipa or Childish Gambino. I don't know how many others may have been untracked ahhhhh

 

Is there a thread where people are listing their best of for 2020 yet? So many albums, I'd like to see which ones people recommend the most.

 

I don't think I have seen one yet, usually it pops up right as December starts, but I wouldn't be shocked to see one earlier than that

 

I regularly have arguments with myself about how I'll rank my top 10 albums of the year. Too much of my time is taken up by making a list that literally no one but myself will care about.

 

Same, same. I frequently pace around my kitchen debating the precise ranking of my favorite whatevers, as though there's anyone in the world that would ever care, or know.

 

For me the biggest trick is always balancing how to rank an album that I really really loved for a few weeks to a month, but also pretty quickly moved on from, vs. albums that I never really had a phase of being obsessed, but I've pretty consistently gone back to over the year.
