ILM's Top 77 Albums of 2019

I was thinking if there was some London record I'd missed, but could only think of Theon Cross. And I don't think that is making it in.

um okay so this American Football album rules?

I voted for Kim Gordon and for SAULT, love both those albums

On jazz, if Ancestral Recall doesn’t place I will be very angry with everyone.

Nérija is the only London jazz album (other than Comet) that might've had a chance, I think? Doesn't seem likely now. I haven't totally given up on Christian Scott yet, perhaps foolishly.

xp :)

ancestral recall will make it

um okay so this American Football album rules?

welcome

Only now does it occur to me that Ancestral Recall is also a blue instant.

i don't get the new lambchop neither. for me they were always the band that really loved music, you could see and feel that in their concerts. autotune is vile.

so the lambchop was the #51, not the pm?

what's a "blue instant"?

Yes, Purple Mountains at 51 was a fake result machinated by the perverse mind of forks. The correct result is lambchop.

amazing fakeout forks

ok did anyone else vote for Longmont Potion Castle cuz I'm starting to worry it won't place

rob, I voted for Christian Scott (aTunde Adjuah), if it helps. Great discovery from the noms thread.

no clue if anything left on my ballot will show now except for that one that's probably #1

Hoping for one more, two at best.

anywhere between 4 and 6 left for me imo. today wasn't for me rly even though i placed 2, same as y/day

only three of my votes have placed so far, but there's a hell of a lot of albums i've heard and liked

i think 7-8 of my votes still have a shot tbh

been a bunch of stuff by acts i like but haven't caught up with

but i'm saying a prayer for my #1 :(

great list already again :)

I've only had one placement (Chemical Bros), one I really hope to see (Underworld) and one that's definitely coming (that Pacific Breeze City Pop comp)

#57 – Samthing Soweto – Isiphithiphithi (220 points, 7 votes)

12-13 of my votes have yet to place but i'm pretty sure they will

Okay, if Ancestral Recall makes it I will be very happy :)

i would love to get surprised by tinashe (maybe!), jimmy eat world, khidja & balabas, slipknot, topdown dialectic etc. but i think it would've already happened

12-13 of my votes have yet to place but i'm pretty sure they will

Had no idea the city pop comp could still place would love it if it did I gave it a high vote

:)

two of my ballot placed so far (Samthing & Koffee), I expect another seven (that includes Tinashe, Brad!).

Looks like CFCF is not going to make it :(

having watched five seasons of terrace house i would not care to hear city pop ever again lol

i guess this is archival stuff, might be a bit different from & better than the stuff certain TH housemates have purveyed

I really thought Love And Affection For Stupid Little Bitches would get in but I guess not now...

Tinashe also on my "will place" list, I guess this whole hivemind thing isn't total bs

I really thought Love And Affection For Stupid Little Bitches would get in but I guess not now...

;_;

Still holding out for CFCF (Night Bus 4 is my favourite thing of his this year, but would love the album to place).

5 of mine have placed. I figure another 5 have a decent shot at placing. Good year for me.

I've had 3 votes place so far.

I also voted for 'Love And Affection For Stupid Little Bitches' but yeah I guess it would have probably shown up by now

I didn't think anyone cared about Tinashe any more.

CFCF is a lock, don’t sweat it.

Pressed for time but: I get Pom about feeling KM being a scam, but boy did I fall for that record.

last years tinashe album was sooooo good
probs prefer it to aquarius

"this experimental music is a scam" = "my kid could paint that" = dumb

I didn't think anyone cared about Tinashe any more.

yeah tinashe burned through quite a lot of goodwill with the releases following aquarius but last year's effort was surprisingly decent.

lol brad I would be surprised if anyone other than you and I had even listened to the khidja & balabas album

I mean obv in a just world it would be top five or something
