"Art is sucking the life out of me"

You can really feel that he struggled to find the motivation to make this. This album is incredibly apathetic but not necessarily in a bad way. It's eerie and depressive and a surprisingly insightful look into the artists mind through this project's creation.

Pleasantly surprising

I'm so happy they're finally back and they're back with what is probably the best album they've ever put out

This album is dark and unsettling like most BOC albums but this album feels like a more direct critique of the current world. Almost a warning of sorts to humanity as we force ourselves into an inferno.

This dark tone builds throughout the whole album only to culminate in what is probably the group's happiest and most hopeful song they've ever released "You Retreat In Time And Space". Reminding us that hopefully everything will be okay.
This song rivals some of the group's best songs like Dayvan Cowboy or Music Is Math. Might even be there best, gives me real shivers.

I love this album. It's so impressive for BOC to come back after 13 years and release their magnum opus.

Highlights:
Prophecy at 1420 MHz
Hydrogen Helium Lithium Leviathan
Age Of Capricorn
Naraka
The World Becomes Flesh
Into The Magic Land
Blood In The Labyrinth
Deep Time
Arena Americanada
The Process
You Retreat In Time And Space

388

He fr just wanted to try every genre

387

This is so cool Holy fuck

386

Wow I love this it's almost too much positive energy to bare.
I love indietronica and this is one of the most seemleess blends of the genre I've heard.
Most energetic album I've ever listened to probably

Trinket has some of the best production I've ever heard. Like I said it seamlessly blends the elements of indie rock and hyperpop into some of the most beautiful and engaging melodies to ever grace my ears. This shit is so awesome.

The score for this album is actually outrageously low imo this has potential to be the albumoftheyear.org for 2026

Also best album cover of the year so far no doubt

Highlights:
You're serious, aren't you?
lil qoo
BURNMATERIAL
( ╥﹏╥ )
( fallout )
all-time chump
Landslide

385

Wow this is awesome.
Brilliant instrumentation.
What genre even is this? Japanese Midwest emo?

383

Yay jazz rock

382

Actually good experimental rap
Gao tf are you doing in this cover😭

381

He kind of brings it back towards the end but this is an abysmal performance from the peg.

My goat might be washed

380

Holy cunt
I cant believe she was almost in katseye.
She either would've saved them or been corrupted by the zucchini. This is the best outcome though

379

First album in a while (a month I think)
Rough couple weeks...

Going through a big pink phase, love her
I think I'm going to draw her

378

Whaaaat!??? Another release Alex twin what are you doing? You're feeding us so well
A cute little release from my favourite bug

377

Thank you Alex drug bug
I cant believe we got a drug bug album with actually decent mixing, it feels wrong

Highlights:
Hell for a Basement
Star Sick
Discotheque of My Own Misery
Between Months
Seraphim
Requiem

376

375

Wow this music makes me want to kill myself!!!
Suicide music at its finest
You should be hated here hurts me

374

His music really scratches my brain. This is the type of shit I'd like to make one day. This is my genre

373

372

Slayyy!!!
Crank is a generational artwork
The first 8 songs on here are incredible but it starts to fall off a little bit afterwards.

Highlights:
Crank
Beat up chanels
Dance
Old technology
Yes goddd
Unknown loverz

371

Holy fucking shit
This is just every genre ever

370

My glorious queen underscores delivered!!!

This might be ever so slightly more polished than the last album it's still more raw than almost everything that's been releasing recently

Noiselow is one of the most gut wrenching and emotional songs I've ever heard. I feel like Robin Callaway was on the brink of death when he recorded those screams. The last half of this track is one of my favourite moments in his whole discography.

Noisecapacity lives up to its name it's truly just noise to the absolute limit. Its short length makes for a highly compact but never ceasing ride into pure and absolute sound.

And then you get the song noiserenity which is easily the most beautiful and ethereal song he's ever put out. It takes you on a beautiful journey throughout its duration and being the longest on the album (almost a third of the entire album) it is the emotion climax and is sonically breathtaking.

What an incredible expierience holy shit dude. While this album is held back by the amount of Interlude tracks taking up about half the tracklist, it literally doesn't even matter because the main songs are so solid. Some of the highs on this album are higher than those of his last album "I saw an angel in the mirror" which is really really damn impressive I don't know how he can do this so consistently. I'm so excited for the next release.
I love you Robin Callaway
♡☆

Highlights:
Noiselow
Noisecapacity
Noiserenity
Noisehiraeth
Noisehigh

368

He is so back

367

Holy moly
I don't use this word often bit this album is bonkers
This shit hits you right in the gut
"I saw an angel in the mirror (reprise)" is unbelievably good.

Ok so after sitting with this album for a while I've realised just how much of a masterpiece this. It's raw innovation, it's noise at its finest. The abrasive overwhelming sound of this album is like no other. The mixing is incredible, the melodies are genius and Robin's singing is genuinely impressive. This is something special. Robin Callaway is going to blow up and he deserves it.

Highlights:
I saw an angel in the mirror (reprise)
Seraphim ii
Skytamer
Dote
Wingsong
Scream into the clouds

366

This album is kinda generic but it has its highlights. His music is sounding completely different from how it used to so I'm happy that he's expanding. Though I wish he were expanding in a more creative way. It feels like he's falling into a generic pop star in a conan gray kind of way. (No conan shade, I love his new stuff)

I miss his old style actually. This feels kind of plain and lacking personality. Sweet tooth will always be my favourite of his because its the perfect mix of personal and polished.

A have a soft spot for him so I forgive him. He helped me through a lot when I was an angst teen.

Holy shit underscores produced sailboat that's crazy what?? That's such a crazy crossover
The second that song came on I thought damn Robin this sounds insane compared to your other songs you've gotten a lot better at producing. Then it was just turned out to be the goat herself underscores

365

Heart warming hyperpop indie rock

364

We are so back. I've been waiting for thus since the melodic blue made me an instant fan. This took way too long to come out comparing it to how good it is, like I think he could have made this in a year. Anyways its great I'm happy with what we got. Might just be his best album.

363


Awwww ally this album is awesome. I'm a little bit let down but I can't stay mad at you. This will definitely grow on me

362

Chills.

Part 2 and 3 are awe inspiring

361

The 2 deluxe and these 3 ambient tracks feel like a perfect closer to quads vanisher era. Super excited for whatever he has next for us, I know it's going to be generational

360

This score is definitely way too high but I absolutely LOVED this!!

359

He's so nonchalant

358 (first album that released in 2026)

What a way to start the year. This is some of the groups best work ever.

357

Holy shit Holy shit Holy shit

Those last two tracks beat me up until I couldn't breath. Forever close my eyes is actually an unbelievable song. It's so touching and intensely emotional and also just beautiful.

356

This album has a super cool sound to it. The abrasive electro guitar sound that can be heard throughout the album is incredibly engaging but it sounds over polished at times.

355

Very different sound to what I expected but it was a good sound indeed

Highlights:
Skin and bone
Only for you
The arrow that killed the beast
Down in the canyon

354 (first of 2026)

It's so cool hearing the original ideas that grew to become one of the greatest albums ever made with wetdream. Super interesting and engaging listen

353 (last album of 2025)

This is the most country non country album I've heard.

Idk what this specific niche of singer songwriter this is but I love this phoebe bridgers, ally evenson porch light shit

352

These songs make me feel like such a loser, anyways they're great.

Except for best friend its kinda icky

351

I spent two hours on this bart simpson for nothing. No views I bet.

350

Those last 3 tracks are fucking awesome

349

Ghais man come on dude.

Its an improvement from the last EP but not by much. I don't want to say that he's fallen off but things aren't looking great

348

I did sadly fall asleep while listening to this so I didn't get the proper expierience.
Super decent album but man I really don't think that they ever made an album better than 0

347

This is actually the first Sufjan album I've listened to that hasn't made me cry

It kinda sounds like if Sufjan tried to make Nurture by Porter Robinson

Erm.... my life is like a video game??

Highlights:
Video game
Tell me you love me
America
Die happy
Make me an offer I can't refuse
Run away with me

346

Omg who told him about drums

345

This cat is so chill
I also don't want to get a job

Super relaxing and super immersive. Some incredible storytelling from this feline.

I.D.W.G.A.J is actually kinda crazy, it might just be my song of the year. meow meow meow
And this album ends incredibly strong

I take it back thus is not chill! This cat actually ended the whole world and had to move to Mars?! Wtf lausse? This albums story is so crazy

344

This is technically an EP so I guess I'm counting it for the list

These are some absolutely incredible songs made for one if the better movies I've ever seen.
Mystery of love is one of sufjans best songs and visions of Gideon hits you right in the gut.

The doveman remix of futile devices is vastly inferior to the original but since the original is so good its impossible to mess up

Highlights:
Mystery of Love
Visions of Gideon

343

He really just never made a bad album.

To be alone with you is breathtaking. Once again a song from a Sufjan album that made me cry. A lot of the time it's Sufjans shortest songs that carry the most weight. It's really amazing that he can pack so much emotion into just 2 minutes.

Sister is kind of just a shorter version of djohariah if you really think about it

Highlights:
To be alone with you
To be alone with you
To be alone with you

342

Hey look at me I'm so niche. This is the type of music I would make if I was able to.

Quedronol is like lofi quadeca in such an incredible way. He has almost perfected the genre of folktronica which is probably just my favourite genre

This album is kinda insane actually. I love the incredible blend of soft lofi folky rock and the intense blasts of synth that bruise your ears

!!! Sudbury is so peak it makes me want to pull my hair out. Literally a 20/10 song. Choking crying throwing up listening to sudbury what a song omg

Highlights:
Walden
Fawn
Contortion dream
Sudden death
Cross my fingers
Sudbury (the pasture song)
Forever and ever
