Another year in the books. Another strong musical year IMO. No standout clear-cut AOTY for me like the past two years (Purple Mountains in 2019 and Hum in 2020), but a very deep year with at least 25+ albums I really enjoyed.
Ten favorites (with a favorite track linked):
1. The World is a Beautiful Place and I Am No Longer Afraid to Die- Illusory Walls Infinite Josh
2. The War on Drugs- I Don't Live Here Anymore I Don't Live Here Anymore
3. Fiddlehead- Between the Richness The Years
4. Sufjan Stevens/Angelo De Augustine- A Beginner's Mind Back to Oz
5. Home Is Where- I Became Birds The Scientific Classification of Stingrays
6. Squid- Bright Green Field Narrator
7. Mdou Moctor- Afrique Victime Afrique Victime
8. Tonstartsbandht- Petunia What Has Happened
9. Matt Sweeney/Bonnie Prince Billy- Superwolves Good to My Girls
10. Parannoul- To See the Next Part of the Dream Youth Rebellion
Ten honorable mentions:
Big Red Machine- How Long Do You Think It's Going to Last
Deafheaven- Inifinte Granite
Foxing- Draw Down the Moon
Indigo De Souza- Any Shape You Take
The Killers- Pressure Machine
Manchester Orchestra- The Million Masks of God
The Reds, Pinks and Purples- Uncommon Weather
Spencer Krug- Fading Graffiti
Turnstile- Glow On
Wild Pink- A Billion Little Lights

Weezer’s OK Human is AOTY for me. Van Weezer was also very solid.
I enjoyed the Sufjan album.
ETA I forgot Killers Pressure Machine. Tied for AOTY for me.

I really like your song for #1. Why over fifteen minutes, though?

That the world is a beautiful place album is something else. Loved it.
WOD was good but obviously not on the level of lost in the dream.
Sufjan album was great.
Otherwise I have a lot of stuff to catch up on

Based on Crutch, I just knew Band of Horses had a 2021 album. Turns out, it's 2022.

dang, Jeff Rosenstock's Ska Dream didn't make Seaward's list.. does that mean you aren't going to Tips on Thursday??
also there's still 25 days left this year, why are people making lists so early when something amazing could just randomly drop

My favorite album this year was Liquid Tension Experiment 3. This just sort of came as a bolt out of the blue after 20 years of hiatus. It's some of the best musicianship you'll ever hear.
However, a strong contender in my view is Layla Revisited by Tedeschi-Trucks. It's borderline sacrilege to re-do an album of that stature but if anybody could do it with the proper respect for the original, it's Derek Trucks. They managed to breathe new life into these old classics while maintaining the warmth and virtuosity of the songs. It didn't hurt much either that Trey Anastasio and Doyle Bramhall came along for the ride.

How do you feel about the male vocalist sounding like Yoni from Why? on this album?
