fwiw, I missed that imago had already quote-pasted them, so apologies if the repetition was annoying. you should listen to the song, though! (if you haven't)

weather station album had some moments but left me cold overall
― roflrofl fight (voodoo chili), Wednesday, 9 February 2022 18:26 (two years ago) link
Ignorance is a really lush whirling thing overall; not sure anything tops Robber but it's all good stuff. I think I still love her previous album the most though.

really like the first two songs on this but the rest of it to me is just tasteful but dull canada rock

Very interested in the Ran Cap Duoi record, new to me as well.

Voted for a Jane Weaver track rather than the album, but I like the album. And did vote for the Weather Station, tuneful bunch of songs. (I like them best when they remind me of Christine McVie.)

awesome to see this so high! It was my #2 but I kind of regret that, it really was the album I enjoyed the most from 2021
― rob, Wednesday, 9 February 2022 18:35 (two years ago) link
I wanted to like that Wau Wau Collectif album more than I did. There's some really cool parts to it but the whole thing just didn't connect with me that much. Perfectly happy to see it here, though.

this preview track is a genuinely lovely vibe at least
― imago, Wednesday, 9 February 2022 18:37 (two years ago) link
I adore that track, but the whole album has a lot more range than that one might suggest

loved henki, especially ivy
― nxd, Wednesday, 9 February 2022 19:06 (two years ago) link
Low on my ballot but yes obv I voted for this, Dawson never misses. Circle was perhaps the junior partner in terms of the songwriting share, but the closing track Pitcher is where they shine brightest. Generally quite a backloaded album; Methusaleh and Lily are also standouts imo
― imago, Wednesday, 9 February 2022 19:07 (two years ago) link
Ah yes, this was one of the ones I *was* expecting to place. Was nervous about the project sounding great on paper but being disappointing, but I was not disappointed. Really fucking good stuff.
― emil.y, Wednesday, 9 February 2022 19:09 (two years ago) link
I wasn't mad keen when Dawson started moving towards band projects in general, and there are some things he's done where I have felt like it adds nothing to his older & more raw solo work, but when he gets proggy and epic it's wonderful.
― emil.y, Wednesday, 9 February 2022 19:12 (two years ago) link
Would have voted it higher but for the first track basically retreading the Civil Servant verse without the banger chorus; I'd probably recommend starting at Lily

I like the idea of the Halsey record but don't actually like it, and yet I'm surprised it wasn't higher.
― change display name (Jordan), Wednesday, 9 February 2022 19:20 (two years ago) link
Was getting worried that Wau Wau wasn't going to make it. I was the #1 voter on that.

Surprised this is this high. Three or four bangers do not an album make

Yay, Henki! My #5. It is still growing on me with every listen - an album that unfolds. Silphium is a joy.

interesting day full of stuff i haven't heard.
wau wau collectif was one of my favs of the pre-voting process
― roflrofl fight (voodoo chili), Wednesday, 9 February 2022 19:43 (two years ago) link
I didn't save my actual ballot but I'm pretty sure only three things I voted for have shown up so far. I'd be shocked if more than three others make it into the top 30. Is it hopeless to think that maybe Colleen's The Tunnel and the Clearing still has a chance??

Also, yeah, I feel like today was interesting. More of a variety in styles and approaches. Good day.

im wondering if Lingua Ignota, Deafheaven and Circle will be the closest we get to metal on here. still have hope for Rhododendron but also not really metal.
― gman59, Wednesday, 9 February 2022 20:30 (two years ago) link
New to Ran Cap - sounds great here now. Voted for Wau Wau and HTRK. This is a handsome list but so few voters are making stuff place. That's a little sad.
― kraudive, Wednesday, 9 February 2022 20:30 (two years ago) link
there's a metal album that was my #1, but I have no idea if anyone else is voting for it

This Deafheaven record is confusing. I think I like it a lot but by turn it reminds me of different bands. There's a big Morrissey / Marr sounds in some songs. Bits sound like Mogwai. There's also some twee sounds. Is it The Posies. Odd. I'll need to spend more time with this.
― kraudive, Wednesday, 9 February 2022 20:48 (two years ago) link
I'm guessing that's top 10
