Bruh, you've been holding out on us. I haven't seen any threads about at least half those artists in your top 10. Listening to Jeff Rosenstock now and liking it.

Jeff Rosenstock is great. If you like this one, I’d highly recommend checking out his album Worry from 2016. It’s a top five album of the 2010s for me.

Colter Wall - Western Swing & Waltzes

I've probably listened to this album through more than any others this year.

Ward Davis has one coming out on Nov 20th that I have high hopes for.

Thank you for this thread. I have to do some end-of-year cramming, per usual.

My favorite album thus far is Haim's new one.

Love it! Rivals the best stuff from their glory days, imo.

That album is fantastic. Thanks for recommending.

It reminds me of a little known band named Drexel. Their album "The Inevitable is Available" is great. You can find it on spotify. Here's a taste - Flagless Memorial Day

2020’s album game is so weak. Even my own band’s album from this year is garbage, and I wrote half of it
