15 Years on Sputnik

A bit early but I'll be away travelling on the actual day so figured I might as well do this now. One album from each year I've been on the site
1Dream Theater
Black Clouds and Silver Linings


2009

Not a fan of this band anymore but they were one of the biggest reasons I ended up on Sputnik. Spent a lot of time wondering why so many people disliked them only to end up there myself haha properly converted
2Alcest
Écailles De Lune


2010

Big year for discovering new music and this was a key part of that
3Devin Townsend Project
Deconstruction


2011

Was so excited for this to drop
4Converge
All We Love We Leave Behind


2012

My favourite band releasing one of their best albums. Remember checking back everyday to see if it had leaked
5Deafheaven
Sunbather


2013

"Dream House" is one of my favourite songs of all time
6Swans
To Be Kind


2014

Sometimes I still prefer The Seer but they're very close
7Sufjan Stevens
Carrie and Lowell


2015

Aged really well. Listened to this for the first time depressed and hungover in a hostel in Seoul, which, thinking back, was the ideal first way to experience it
8Meshuggah
The Violent Sleep of Reason


2016

"Clockworks" still slaps so hard
9Brand New
Science Fiction


2017

Feels illegal to list this but it was a big part of my year. Anyone on Sputnik for as long as I was had listened to Brand New
10Daughters
You Won't Get What You Want


2018

Oh man, this list is getting uncomfortable
11Esoteric
A Pyrrhic Existence


2019

Need new music from these guys
12Ichiko Aoba
Adan no Kaze


2020

Another discovery thanks to Sputnik, after seeing a review for 0% back in 2015. Seeing her at the premiere of her new album in October
13Ad Nauseam
Imperative Imperceptible Impulse


2021

Can't wait to hear more from these guys
14Black Country, New Road
Ants from Up There


2022

Seems a bit fashionable to dislike these guys on here but damn if "Basketball Shoes" didn't blow me away on first (and all subsequent) listens
15Jeromes Dream
The Gray In Between


2023

Honestly didn't listen to much new music last year but this impressed me
16Opeth
The Last Will And Testament


2024

Needz moar Opeth, baby. Growls are back for the first time since I joined this site haha which suddenly seems like a very long time ago. Appropriate place to end the list. Thanks for the years of memories
