What are those 5 from 2020? I’m honestly struggling even to recall what albums were big in 2020 outside of the ones I personally enjoyed.

Maybe it’s cynical but I kinda feel like people (not saying you, just people in general) just latched on hard to a lot of kinda mid stuff in 2020 because of the lockdowns. Imo most of the “quarantine” albums that year haven’t aged well either.

Fiona Apple, Seiko Oomori, Rina Sawayama, REOL and Rubio


I only know Fiona among these so fair enough.

But yeah I just skimmed the RYM 2020 top chart (perhaps not the best metric but alas) and it def seems that I have a mid to low opinion on a disproportionate amount of stuff in my general wheelhouse what was rated highly that year.

The big thing this year has been the amount and quality of “comeback” releases. A high amount of my historical favorite bands have dropped stuff this year and I’m a lot of cases these releases have been their best in a decent while. “New” acts (Ethel Cain, BCNR, MJ Lenderman) have also been ranking very high for me though.

as long as perfume (scent) is top i am ok with whatever trickles down beneath
also v upset that johnny used "scent" instead of "fragrance", kinda weak tbh.

Diminishing returns on this one. Everything sounds fine but the title track is the only thing I actively return to. The back half in general is much better

^ Awful take. Ugly Season is the best track by a mile. In general agree with FlagAsh's top 4. Basically the back half >>>>>> the front half
