Re: Albums of 2024 Discussion Thread

I'm finding some good stuff this year. I'm starting to lean toward the side of 2023 being a particularly lackluster year.

After hearing Aviary a couple months ago, I'm most excited for the Julia Holter. If she pulls it off, she's joining my top 100 artists.

Oof... Rattlesnake was one of my favorite discoveries. It doesn't even register for me that it's microtonal - but I'm guessing that was a major turnoff for others.

I put "Old Town Road" at 90, not 297. :/
