2020 has obviously not been an ideal year, but I feel it has been strong musically. Anyone have any favorites?

The year is clearly not over, but it seems like new releases dry up around this time.

Top ten (with a favorite track included)

1. Hum- Inlet ( Waves)
2. Jeff Rosenstock- No Dream Ohio Tpke)
3. Fleet Foxes- Shore ( Sunblind)
4. Dogleg- Melee ( Hotlines)
5. Caribou- Suddenly ( Home)
6. The Killers- Imploding the Mirage ( My Own Soul’s Warning)
7. Run the Jewels- RTJ4 ( Oh la la)
8. Tame Impala- The Slow Rush ( Breathe Deeper)
9. Adrianne Lenker- songs ( Anything)
10 Thurston Moore- By the Fire ( Cantaloupe)

That would probably be in my next ten. The title track on that one is really good.

The Beths - Jump Rope Gazers


I was a huge fan of their first album and didn’t enjoy this one nearly as much. Maybe it would grow on me.

My chick-indie favorites from this year:

HAIM - Women in Music Pt 3
Phoebe Bridgers - Punisher
Beach Bunny - Honeymoon

Really good album. One a different day that one could have easily been in my top ten.
