2. The National - Sleep Well Beast
3. Ryan Adams - Prisoner
4. Kevin Morby - City Music
5. Big Thief - Capacity
6. Fleet Foxes - Crack-Up
7. Jason Isbell & The 400 Unit - The Nashville Sound

18. Nicole Atkins - Goodnight Rhonda Lee
19. Beach Fossils - Somersault
20. Mark Lanegan Band - Gargoyle

 

1. The Menzingers - After The Party
An obvious choice but I think songs like After The Party and Your Wild Years have soundtracked my year, and seeing them live at 2000 Trees absolutely kill it really solidified my absolute love of this band.
Top tracks - Your Wild Years, After the Party, Lookers

2. Tigers Jaw - SPIN
Something about this album really connected with me, and if it wasn't for two songs at the end that I find myself skipping a lot, this would be pushing The Menzingers very close. Top notch songwriting and I love the harmonies between Ben and Brianna.
Top Tracks - Window, June, Guardian

3. Turnover - Good Nature
This band have quickly become a true favourite of mine. Peripheral Vision is one of my favourite albums ever and soundtracked the darkest year or two of my life. Now this album talks about falling in love again and learning to enjoy life over again, and I've definitely slowly learned that this year.
Top Tracks - Bonnie (Rhythm & Melody), Super Natural, Sunshine Type

4. Deaf Havana - All These Countless Nights
Lyrically, this is absolutely my favourite album this year. It PERFECTLY captures how I felt in the first two or three months this year, after a rough break up, some bad luck job wise, and I was drinking too much and doing drugs and generally feeling very depressed. I turned it around, but this captures so much of that, from the desperation of Trigger, to the defeated alcoholism feeling in Happiness.
Top Tracks - Happiness, L.O.V.E., Trigger

5. Creeper - Eternity In Your Arms
This band sound like AFI meets Alkaline Trio with a touch of My Chemical Romance, and the album is fantastic. Seen them live a few times and they just really excite me. Good fun, with an interesting image and some catchy choruses.
Top Tracks - Misery, Black Rain, Darling

Honourable mentions:
Paramore - After Laughter
Camp Cope - Selftitled (re-release I know but I'm having it)
Sorority Noise - You're Not As ___ As You Think
Remo Drive - Greatest Hits

 

Your top 3 are all will yip albums haha

Listen to the movements record that same out this year I think you will like it

 

Will Yip does a LOT of records I enjoy. Peripheral Vision, Keep You, Jar, Floral Green, etc. I'll give it a go.

 

I'll like any post that includes Creeper

 

Stoked on all the White Reaper mentions

 

Movements are wonderful people and their record is really solid, I second the recommendation!

 

I find myself enjoying it more and more, its a real grower

 

outside of my top 5 i have a lot of trouble deciding on the order of my records this year, i honestly loved every album in my top 20

 

The Dead Havana album - I see two versions, deluxe and one where all the tracks are “reworked”. Which one do you recommend?

 

I finally listened to Guppy by Charly Bliss all the way through for the first time yesterday and it’s definitely getting a spot in my top ten. I tried listening earlier this year and it did nothing for me but wow was I wrong. Glitter might have the chorus of the year (excluding anything from After the Party).

 

Maybe I’ll have to go back to it, because it also did nothing for me on the first listen.

 

I don’t know if I wasn’t in the mood at first or what but I’ve listened non stop since yesterday morning. They’re like a more bubblegum Tancred in the best way.

 

im bored, heres what i came up with ranking is mostly arbitrary but im sure its more fun this way

1. corbin - mourn
2. francie cool + leor miller - girl
3. tall friend - safely nobodys
4. adult mom - soft spots
5. young thug - beautiful thugger girls
6. sixpress - on the road, sunny path
7. lexie - record time
8. chief keef - two zero one seven/thot breaker/dedication
9. florist - if blue could be happiness
10. show me the body - corpus i
11. julie byrne - not even happiness
12. sandy alex g - rocket
13. girlpool - powerplant
14. mount eerie - a crow looked at me
15. charli xcx - number 1 angel / pop 2
16. brockhampton - saturation trilogy
17. julie byrne - not even happiness
18. nana grizol - ursa minor
19. coma cinema - loss memory
20. lorde - melodrama
21. bedouine - bedouine
22. emily yacina - heart sky
23. jay som - everybody works
24. rostam - half - light
25. salami rose joe louis - zlaty sauce nephew

 

The standard version. The reworked is cool but the original version is fantastic.

 

I ain't even gonna start making my list till Jan 1st. We got weeks left still and so much can happen

 

1. The Menzingers - After the Party 2. Paramore - After Laughter 3. Goldfinger - The Knife 4. Kesha - Rainbow 5. New Found Glory - Makes Me Sick 6. The Bombpops - Fear of Missing Out 7. All Time Low - Last Young Renegade 8. Bad Cop / Bad Cop - Warriors 9. Julien Baker - Turn Out the Lights

 

I prefer the reworked Deaf Havana tbh

 

Interesting, you're the first person I know to say this, which songs do you think are better reworked?

 

this is the catchiest song of 2k17

1:12 is dopamine

 

This is the only Scale The Summit record that I didn't immediately latch onto. Maybe I was having a funky week... I need to give it another try.
