anyone who got 2020 wrong is liable to themselves alone + both Doof and dedex need to cancel their NME subscriptions immediately (no words for the Circa Survive/Adjy bs itt)
curious also to see if anyone can match Doof's list for a) 3.0-3.5 quality baseline and b) sheet concentration of sausages jfc get some olive oil in there |

Demon of the Fall
07.05.23 | 2022 had loads of albums on that 4.0/4.5 borderline, but no concrete 'this is the one', Rolo just seemed the safest choice there
2020 was tough having those two as runners-up, picked Alphaville for the 'recency bias' because I've been revisiting it a fair bit of late |
