Willie: Willie's 2018 | Sputnikmusic

Willie 01.06.19	I didn't really have time to do a full-blown list with altered artwork and descriptions this year. It wasn't that great a year for music I liked anyway...
Hawks 01.06.19	19 and 25 are god awful but sweet list overall as always. m/
Willie 01.06.19	Ha ha. I'm surprised you even bothered to listen to those two. They don't seem like anything you'd even think about trying.
Gnocchi 01.06.19	I was beginning to think you only rated 3.3 exclusively.
Hawks 01.06.19	I love Senses Fail and Underoath overall but those albums are sooooooo bad.
Deez 01.06.19	New At the gates sucks just not as hard as the last At the gates so thats some kind of progress when your hitting late 40s i guess.
Willie 01.06.19	--I was beginning to think you only rated 3.3 exclusively.-- Ha ha. There's a lot of times I'm listening to new albums and thinking this isn't great, but it's pretty good.... --I love Senses Fail and Underoath overall but those albums are sooooooo bad.-- Really? This is my favorite 'traditional' Senses Fail album since Still Searching. Also, Underoath's last three albums are all better than their new one, but this is still better than their other poppy post hardcore releases. --New At the gates sucks just not as hard as the last At the gates so thats some kind of progress when your hitting late 40s i guess.-- Ha ha. Totally disagree...
budgie 01.06.19	i'm going to have to give TMTTD another try some day
Willie 01.06.19	--Sounds like I need to check 6 as well.-- 6 would almost definitely be your thing. Let me know if you check it out. --i'm going to have to give TMTTD another try some day-- I think people should. It's might not be what they expected or wanted from her second album, but it's definitely really good.
Deez 01.06.19	Im kinda sad I didnt even know SOIA had a new record like back in the day I saw them about 15 times. They were such an important band for me but I dont care at all when they release stuff now but youve inspired me to check that one for old times sake
Willie 01.06.19	It's worth a listen. I've always liked all their stuff, but I haven't been instantly impressed with them like this since Scratch The Surface.
Lord(e)Po)))ts 01.06.19	~Obligatory potsy shit-post~ But actually Numb by Meg Myers rips. Dont like the rest of the alb as much but still 5/5
Deez 01.06.19	It's worth a listen. I've always liked all their stuff, but I haven't been instantly impressed with them like this since Scratch The Surface.' Same.
Dewinged 01.07.19	Nice touch on including similar bands Willie, great list. Happy to see bands like Tonight Alive and Hypno5e up there. And didn't know In Vain had a new one this year, I was about to jam Mantra now.
BerryGarlicia 01.07.19	3 is literally garbage
Dewinged 01.07.19	And no Black Fast huh, unacceptable.
BallsToTheWall 01.07.19	What up dawg! Nice list.
0GuyMan0 01.07.19	I really, really need to set aside some time for #1. The previous was my AOTY 2015.
Voivod 01.07.19	Great list, need to listen 6 (I used to be big on the band), and 2.
Coast 01.07.19	Great list. Amorphis album grew into a gem. Pretty much equal top for me. Probably their catchiest and love the homage to Tuonela. I rate the Primordial and Necrophobic albums much higher than you and sput. Adding 6 and 7 to my listening.
Gyromania 01.07.19	looks like you missed out on a lot of great music this year
insomniac15 01.07.19	How come The Ocean are so low?
Toondude10 01.08.19	I approve of your #1
Willie 01.08.19	--And no Black Fast huh, unacceptable.-- It was in my Top 100 for sure, but I can't remember exactly how far off the Top 50 it was... I keep a running excel sheet ever since I started participating in these end of year things. --I really, really need to set aside some time for #1. The previous was my AOTY 2015.-- I'm surprised you haven't really bothered with it if their previous album ranked so high for you. --Great list, need to listen 6 (I used to be big on the band)-- I've checked their previous releases now, and I like the one before this one but didn't really get into any of their earlier releases. --Great list. Amorphis album grew into a gem. Pretty much equal top for me. Probably their catchiest and love the homage to Tuonela. I rate the Primordial and Necrophobic albums much higher than you and sput. Adding 6 and 7 to my listening.-- Tuonela is one of my favorite Amorphis releases, so I really liked the influence it seemed to have over their new album. 6 was definitely a surprise since I had never heard them before. It's still growing on me. --looks like you missed out on a lot of great music this year -- Very likely. Are you going to throw out any examples? --How come The Ocean are so low?-- I'm not huge on post metal, so I can only seem to get so far into it most of the time. --I approve of your #1-- Thanks. Ha ha.
zakalwe 01.08.19	There’s a surprising amount of dross on here
AlexKzillion 01.10.19	Was not expecting to see 7 here at all
WatchItExplode 01.11.19	This has given me a few more 2018 releases to check out. Good on ya'
Hawks 01.14.19	I gotta hear 16, 26 and 38 asap. Lots of great stuff here too as always. m/
TheNotrap 01.20.19	List has nice jams, as expected. Queen of Time is also my 2018 fav
