September was a slow month for me, so my to-listen-list grew to almost epic proportions. I'll need to get on that.
First here's the new ratings. I added a third column with the genre according to RYM or according to me, if there's no RYM page.
- Angel Olsen needs to find herself a new producer, because the engineering on her last two albums is horrible and completely ruins the songs that would be great on their own.
- Spektral Quartet had somebody design an entire tarot deck for the physical release of their album, so the listener can arrange the track order based on cards. I don't care about that, but the music is good, especially the modern tracks.
- If you enjoyed "Trouble" from the ongoing 2020 songs poll, you might want to check the album out. Despite lasting 80 minutes it never gets boring because every track has its own character. The highlights (as of now) are the aforementioned "Trouble", "Earworm", "Crimson Star", "Paul is 9ft Tall (Marsh Gas)" and "Flickering Lights", but on second listen "Remains" has grown on me too. Might totally be in my EOY Top 5 and will probably end up the best Pop album of the year. Richard Dawson did it again!

9/10
Hen Ogledd | Free Humans | Art Pop
Mehmet Ali Sanlikol & Whatsnext? ft. Dave Liebman | The Rise Up: Stories of Strife, Struggle and Inspiration | Turkish Folk Jazz (?)

Creeper | Sex, Death & the Infinite Void | Pop Rock

Hiperson | Bildungsroman | Indie Rock
No Joy | Motherhood | Noise Pop
Kelly Lee Owens | Inner Song | Tech House
Klô Pelgag | Notre-Dame-des-Sept-Douleurs | Art Pop
Roomful of Teeth | Harrison: Just Constellations | Choral

Hi Holden !
I remember reading that you enjoyed IDLES' latest. So did I. And I just listened to the debut eponymous album from The Cool Greenhouse.
I think you might enjoy it...very much so.

And to all The Fall fans, have a listen, it'll be a EOY album for me for sure.

I've decided to upgrade Gillian Welch - Boots No. 2: The Lost Songs, Vol. 3 from 6.5 to 7, meaning it makes a gentle climb from my 178th top album of 2020 to my #172, taking its place between 1V0 and Ecstasy. A lot of the songs seem like sketches and there are only subtle stylistic shifts throughout but the album's worth shines through after replays.
