25 Of Ur Best (Non-2016) Records You've Heard this year
The pile of trash hurled at me as a result of me posting records I listened to in 2015 and that I came to appreciate, but that weren't specifically released in that year, was horrendous.
Therefore this thread's dedicated to all the records made from 2015 and past that you'd put in your own favorites list. Cause let's be honest for me at least I tend to pursue records always made in prior years and never actually the year I exist on presently, 2016 especially. That's not to say this year's lacking good music. btw it can be a top 50's list if you find that more desirable No particular order yet, that's for later this year. Except the last five. The Flaming Lips - The Terror Ty Segall Band - Slaugherhouse Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - No More Shall We Part LCD Soundsystem - The Long Goodbye (Live at MSG) The Good Life - Novena on A Nocturn The Avalanches - Since I Left You Jens Lekman - Night Falls Over Kortedala The Elected - Sun, Sun, Sun Busdriver - Temporary Forever The Go! Team - Thunder, Lightning, Strike SBTRKT - SBTRKT Fleet Foxes - Helplessness Blues Ghostface Killah - Fishscales Rilo Kiley - The Execution Of All Things Scarface - The Fix Woods - At Rear House Jamie xx - In Colour MF Doom - Live From Planet X Battles - Mirrored Neko Case - Middle Cyclone The Decemberists - Castaways & Cutouts The Drones - Gala Mill Dr. Dre - Compton Esperanza Spalding - Junjo The Bad Plus - Made Possible The Good Life - Help Wanted Nights http://www.loudandquiet.com/wp-conte...mbre-creep.jpg Timber Timbre - Creep On Creepin' On http://www.1994hiphop.net/wp-content...roit-20011.jpg J Dilla - Welcome to Detroit http://images.shazam.com/coverart/t1...88138_s400.jpg Ted Leo & The Pharmacists - The Tyranny Of Distance https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikiped...oodflowers.jpg The Cure - Bloodflowers http://cdn.pitchfork.com/tracks/17518/f72b589b.jpg Royal Headache - High |

I discovered Sunn O)))

Here's the best list I could come up with:
Radiohead The Bends OK Computer Kid A Hail To The Thief In Rainbows Amnesiac Pablo Honey Tim Buckley Lorca Sefronia Starsailor Wolves In Sheepskin A Van Per Oven Lizard of Ox Trouble Salad Besvær Salat Amongst The Pines, Beside The Stream Fuzz Planetary Collision Disgust The Soundtrack Chiodos - Devil I Hear Sirens - Between Consciousness and Sleep Ruby My Dear - Form Ruby My Dear - Remains of Shapes to Come Anathema - Distant Satellites Katatonia - Dead End Kings pg.lost - In Never Out https://img.discogs.com/FNN5kKErqamV...-7144.jpeg.jpg Igorrr & Ruby My Dear – Maigre (2014) Easily the best thing that has gotten some heavy rotation this year is Igorrr & Ruby My Dear's Maigre EP. I hadn't realized how much I liked this type of stuff at least until the middle or end of last year. I've been having a huge Radiohead kick this year as well, but I remember last year I was really into Frown's and Mondo's stuff, and that's really gotten me into some weird **** this year that wasn't released this year. They make the list strictly for that reason. |
Also, not a lot of the items I listed would make my favorites list because I was confused as to how this thread works. My favorites list would be far different.

My favorites list for albums that weren't released in 2016 would look something like...
1. https://f4.bcbits.com/img/a1111034929_16.jpg pg.lost - Key (2012) 2. Riverside: Love, Fear and the Time Machine 3. Storm Corrosion: Storm Corrosion 4. Anathema: Weather Systems 5. Alesana: Confessions 6. A Swarm of The Sun: The Rifts 7. The Best Pessimist: I Just Want To Be Your Everything 8. I Hear Sirens: Beyond The Sea, Beneath The Sky 9. This Town Needs Guns: Animals 10. Giraffes? Giraffes!: Pink Magick 11. Lamb of God: Ashes of the Wake 12. Myrath: Tales of the Sands 13. Nick Drake: Five Leaves Left 14. Nick Drake: Bryter Layter 15. Nick Drake: Pink Moon 16. Ef: Delusions of Grandeur 17. Chiodos: Illuminaudio 18. The Pineapple Thief: Variations On A Dream 19. The Pineapple Thief: What We Have Sown 20. Opeth: Pale Communion 21. Trouble Salad: Besvær Salat 22. Radiohead: Kid A 23. Radiohead: Ok Computer 24. Radiohead: Amnesiac 25. Sigur Ros: Valtari That's 25, but I could easily do 25, if not 50 more. My favorites list could possibly get close to 150 or 200 if I tried hard enough. But that'll do it for now. |

I would tell you how good the first track on Storm Corrosion is but it's not over yet because it's 10 fucking minutes long.

I used to make this type of list at the end of each year. It's often more telling of someone's tastes rather than focusing on just a single year's best - which too often are predicable and boring as a result of buzz and such. Granted, there's often a fair amount of catch-up from the previous year, as evidenced by the many 2015 albums in my list. Here are my 24 favorites so far, in alphabetical order:
A Frames - A Frames 2 (2003) Acid Baby Jesus - Selected Recordings (2014) The Auteurs - New Wave (1993) Caustic Resin - The Medicine Is All Gone (1998) Czarface - Czarface (2013) Czarface - Every Hero Needs a Villain (2015) Charles Howl - Sir Vices (2015) Devo - Duty Now for the Future (1979) The Flaming Lips - The Terror (2013) Four Tet - Pink (2012) Helvetia - Nothing in Rambling (2012) Life Stinks - You'll Never Make It (2015) Pinecones - Sings for You Now (2014) Plat - Compulsion (2005) Rival Consoles - Howl (2015) Seam - The Problem With Me (1993) Seam - The Pace Is Glacial (1998) Soft Kill - Heresy (2015) NEU! - NEU! (1972) New Gum Sarn - New Gold Mountain (2015) Timmy's Organism - Heartless Heathen (2015) Barry Uhl - The Stargazer's Bible (2015) White Fence - Live in San Francisco (2013) Young Rival - Interior Light (2015) |

No that's cool :p
Although a few people seem to like that Disgust album and I can't justify why anyone would or find anything listenable about any of it. It's pretty much some of the worst stuff I've ever heard. So I guess it's my Metal Machine Music |

Some if it is pretty mediocre, you're right. I just don't really give out ratings less than a 5/10, ****'s gotta be genuinely bad for that, and all yours still had hints of things liked even at the lowest.
I think Disgust is genuinely bad though and give it like a 2/10 because the opener is almost listenable. If you like that I did a sequel and I think it's infinitely better. |
In no order:
My Dad Is Dead - The Taller You Are, The Shorter You Get Discordance Axis - The Inalienable Dreamless Mayhem - De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas Don Quixote - What Burns Never Returns and Deathcrush Sigh - Scorn Defeat Tortoise - Tortoise Moss Icon - Lyburnum Wits End Liberation Fly Burzum - Det Som Engang Var Converge - Petitioning The Empty Sky Tommy Wright III - Ashes 2 Ashes, Dust 2 Dust Darkthrone - A Blaze In The Northern Sky Black Sabbath - Black Sabbath Dr. Dre - 2001 Gas Up Yr Hearse!!! - A Banner Year For The Sum Of Our Losses Dalek - Absence Melvins - Lysol Elliott Smith - Either/Or and Roman Candle Sadus - DTP Demo '86 Crass - The Feeding Of The 5000 Mohinder - Everything Dystopia - Human = Garbage The Postal Service - Give Up Severed Heads - Haul Ass |
