If I'm learning something from the Billboard and EW lists, it's that I have a lot in common with the masses this year. Fine with me.
Really like this list. Amen Dunes, Nap Eyes, Cut Worms, Haley Hendrickx, Parquet Courts, Bonny Doon, Shame, and King Tuff are somewhere in my top 20 also. I also enjoy most of the other albums on this list that I’ve heard.
Yea I'm matching up with these lists a lot better than usual. So far I've got Janelle Monae, Father John Misty, Kali Uchis, Kacey Musgraves, Courtney Barnett, and Pusha T up there, but there's still a lot coming this month that I'm very excited for so it's too early to say.
Really like this list. That Kadjha Bonet album should be on more lists. https://music.avclub.com/the-best-albums-of-2018-so-far-1827117616
Here’s what I got so far although I’ve been too depressed to fully enjoy all of it, I’m certain you’d find something you like since there’s 1,500+ songs to choose from in every genre from bands totally unknown to the obvious heavy weight releases
