Different pick from most, but I really enjoyed "SMILE! :D" by Porter Robinson. I might be biased though. Porter is my all time favorite artist.

I forgot SMILE :D released this year! Also a really great album!
definitely aura safari - sensory blending
Time II by Wintersun. It was a long wait, but I'd almost call it worth it, 'cause the album is so good.
Brat
The Last Dinner Party's Prelude to Ecstasy.
NOTHING MATTAHS
All born screaming by St. Vincent
objectively "the new sound" by geordie greep
personally (as a mega fan of THD) "exploitopia" by that handsome devil
Porter Robinson - Smile!
Wavedash - Tempo
It's She's Electric Girl for the 13th consecutive year! Wow, what a winner, can't wait to see who takes it next year!
The opera singer Lisette Oropesa's Mozart aria album. An absolute perfect voice with impeccable technique.
Zanmu by Ado, she has such an amazing voice. Also; Ado's Utattemita Album, which is a cover album, her performance of crime and punishment gives me shivers.
Return to Hellview - 96 Bitter Beings
All re-recordings, but man is it so noticeable the difference in quality from the originals.
The only "real" album that came out in 2024 that I listened to start-to-finish was Hyperdrama by Justice. It got a lot of flak online for being "uninspired" etc etc, but I think that mostly speaks to how great their first two studio albums were. The opening track on this one features Tame Impala and has an equally awesome music video.
After that, second place would be a tie between two 2024 live albums: ¡Blow it … at Madison's Quinceañera! by Me First and The Gimme Gimmes and Beast of Horns by They Might Be Giants. I got the latter on vinyl for Christmas and it's a lot of fun if you're a fan.
Hey someone else who likes Justice and They Might Be Giants!
Missed that they had a new album, thanks!
Mine would be Flight B741 by King Gizzard and The Lizard Wizard https://youtu.be/Ik-gBAlEbQY

Ooh another opportunity to yell from the rooftops how great "Nobody Loves You More" by Kim Deal is! :) Honestly a fully fantastic album that I love. :)
"Romance" by Fontaines DC was another brilliant one!
ooh and the new Cure album!
A friend of mine put on that Kim Deal album for me the other day when we were talking about albums that came out this year. I’ve only heard it the one time so far, but agree it was great!
Still haven't listened to the new Cure album. But Romance is probably my AOTY. Nobody Loves You More is great.
The New Sound by Geordie Greep though this was a stellar year for albums imo and it's hard to pick just one
Agree with the whole comment but yeah I love every song of The New Sound, especially The Magician. Also I "discovered" black midi at the beginning of the year and was sad to learn they splitted, thankfully Greep released this masterpiece.

Jimmy Clifton - Crucified in Christ Not your typical Christian album.
Absolute Elsewhere by Blood Incantation.
Songs of a Lost World by The Cure
They had a hard act to follow after their nearly perfect self-titled album, but Cure was almost as good, and that is mighty praise indeed.
PowerNerd by Devin Townsend
Definitely a tie between Where Have "All The Merrymakers Gone?" (Harvey Danger), "Example" (Four Squirrels), and "Four" (Blues Travelers). Definitely my most played and favorite albums of 2024.
As of this year, it's looking like "Ten Thousand Fists" (Disturbed) is taking the lead as my favorite. We could see an upset folks!

Imaginal Disk by Magdalena Bay, though almost shared 1st place with Charli XCX' BRAT remix album.
Thought I'd see more BRAT in this thread. I guess lemmy just doesn't serve cunt like I'd hoped.
- Do Not Go To War With The Demons Of Mazandaran by Lowen.
- Erosion / Avulsion by Hidden Mothers
- Bloom & Decay by Dawn Treader
- Absolute Elsewhere by Blood Incantation
- Hellfenlic by The Infernal Sea

Friko’s debut Album Where we’ve Been, Where we go from Here
Did not expect to see Friko in here but def agree that the debut is/ was awesome. Are you from Chicago? Has been fun to see them kinda explode over the past year or so.
Yeah I live in the burbs so I caught on when they were getting buzz on local Instagram pages and radio play on WXRT. I’m bummed I didn’t go see them at Thalia hall last week, I bet it was a great show.
It was!
The year just started, I haven't even had a chance to record my annual 12 Farts Of The Year yet..
Enjoyed 'Yesterwynde' by Nightwish a lot last year
A Fortress Called Home by Seven Spires
The Poetic Edda by Synestia and Disembodied Tyrant
Mine is 'Sangs of a Lost World' by 'the Cure'. It may even be my favourite Cure album.
All About the Bones by Chris Smither:
https://youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_m5juHHLewlTZVC2XvbjZH-HKvRFeJHa1c
My favorite track:
I like this a lot. I've never had a record make me hungry before but gawdamn now I want that Cajun suppah.
He's got you covered!
Beans and okra would be just great right now. My wife made banging cabbage stew yesterday so Imma eat that.
The Past Is Still Alive by Hurray for the Riff Raff.
Easily one of my most played of 2024. Shame I missed them when they came through my city. Loved the songwriting, the music and the singing. The whole album was strong and the vibe resonated with me.
Love HFTRR!
