Bit gutted about Louise Burns being at 78.

I didn't like this Louise Burns album very much, or else I'd have ensured it got in. I've voted for her previous two.

Burial is also at 78 (a tie I guess), it is fitting that it didn't place since it is mostly a compilation of past work, but the tracks it documents are equal to anything in this poll imo

Johnny Fever — shoutout for the Tayla Parx vote! Think we were the only two 😕

I have no idea how I've gotten so in sync with ILM hivemind this year, it's kind of weird. Might just be that I'm listening to the same records that are popular everywhere.

The same thing has happened to me also, almost everything on my list I was not the sole voter for

Sad!

Guidance Is Internal layers really nicely over The Sacrifical Code

Weighted. I think that none placed, which is a record:

Maja S.K. Ratkje - Sult
Tauno Aints et al/Weekend Guitar Trio/Estonian Philharmonic Chamber Choir - Estonian Incantations 1

Henrik Anderson - WTF Variations
Jean Leloup - L'étrange pays
Glenn Branca - The Third Ascension
Alcest - Spiritual Instinct
Redd Kross - Beyond the Door
Ben Monder - Day After day
FET.NAT - Le mal

Lol, I have the second-lowest hivemind score, only ahead of saer, who voted for only one album.

What's funny is that my top four albums are all ones I only heard about because of ILM.

A raised glass to neighbour pfunkboy and devvine, who cast the other vote for Kumio Kurachi.

Surprised no-one else voted for Bad Books.

And these were the solitary vote #1's:

Anna Webber - Clockwise
Filmmaker - Somber Realm
Fire! Orchestra - Arrival
Girlpool - What Chaos is Imaginary
Hadn Dadn - Lyaoakyn
MC Yallah & Debmaster - Kubali
Moon King - Voice Of Lovers
Santilli - Surface
Sarah Davachi & Ariel Kalma - Intemporel
Tayhana - Tierra del Fuego
Terminal Cheesecake - Le Sacre Du Liévre
Yosi Horikawa - Spaces

Santilli - Surface

That was my number one - far from the most conspicuosly amazing thing that came out last year but something I kept coming back to for its understated gentleness. Sounds pretty much like if Gaussian Curve had been on ECM records. Also somewhat drawn to it by the fact it's just one guy playing all the instruments on it.

Too late to nominate, would've voted for them otherwise:

juneunit – juneunit
Stefan Fraunberger – Quellgeister#3 – Bussd
Þóranna Björnsdóttir & Federico Placidi – Lucid

I oddly forgot to mention the Fraunberger when we talked about organ drones during the rollout. It's a magnificent record that Kali Malone fans would very likely enjoy.

And please remember to vote in the METAL & HEAVY MUSIC poll:

2019 Metal ’n’ Heavy Rock Poll: VOTING & CAMPAIGNING thread (open until the 21st of February)

You nominated Zachary Paul iirc, and a belated thank you for that is in place. Even though you didn't vote for it!

xp

My pleasure! I was so bulimic last year, listening-wise, that a ballot with 100 records on it would've been useful for once.

I didn't keep my ballot but it was very close to my real Top 25 of the year, so almost certainly was as below. LDR was my real #13 of 2019 but I assumed it would do fine w/o me so left it off my ballot. Never guessed Weyes Blood would outstrip it by as much as it did or I'd have omitted that as well.

I hear thee. Listening to Fraunberger right now, it's good! I'm ready to be scammed ;)

xp

lol!

It's my fault that Vanishing Twin didn't make the 77...

Interesting that a full 10 people *did* vote for it, but frequently at relatively low rankings, it seems. The unranked-ness of my own ballot conceals the fact that I wanted to like a little more than I actually did!

Yes, the Vanishing Twin record was a bit weaker than their previous ones. However, they played one of the gigs of the year in 2019 and are a GOOD THING in general so I put them at the bottom of my ballot.

P.S. correction to my ballot above: swap the positions of Anna Wise and Holly Herndon
