I've always held the belief that music wasn't better in the past, people just have survivorship bias. What are your genuine favorite albums of the last few years?

Personally, I'm loving The Rime of Memory by Panopticon, Ants from Up There by Black Country, New Road, and Hellfire by Black Midi.

My fav album of the 2020's would probably be Saviors by Green day. I however dont look at the release date of the album Im currently listening too often so It gets pretty hard to make a good list.

  • Ensiferum - Thalassic
  • In Extremo - Kompass zur Sonne

Both from 2020 exactly, and amazing.

I know them all, she's my favorite musical artist. 可愛くてごめん (kawaikute gomen) is my favorite of those, I'd say.

I know this is a weird choice but the Lustmord tribute album "The Others" is probably my favorite of the decade so far. The first half is pretty close to the dark ambient Lustmord is known for, but as the album goes on it has some more melodic contributions which are really spectacular.

Ethereal Shroud's "Trisagion" album is really great if you're into metal. Also with regards to metal - the song "Aggressor" by Vredehammer is crazy good, especially the first 2:20 or so, but the full album doesn't quite match it for me.

"Aether" by The Moon and the Nightspirit is wonderful folk music from Hungary, but they've had a few other albums in the past that match it for me.

KOAN Sound - Led By Ancient Light definitely tops my list.

And a couple of King Gizzard and the Wizard Lizard albums, but I've seen them mentioned already! I'm sure there are probably some more that I'm blanking on right now - I'll check my music library and edit this if I think of some more!

Single album by NOFX

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago

Jockstrap - Wicked City

I'll second Black Midi - Hellfire obviously

Bobbing - Mixtape

And now I'm faced with the fact that most of my favorite recent albums are at least 5 years old
