black midi - Hellfire
88
Listening to this album for the first time gave me whiplash. In the best way possible, of course. Hellfire is a hideous web of narrative threads that dart in horrifying directions, and it highlights black midi’s imposing talent for storytelling and character study. From the second this album begins, the chaos is suffocating, gripping you by the throat and not letting you breathe for its duration; even in the album’s most serene moments, the knowing that black midi will propel you ... read more

Sky Ferreira - Everything Is Embarrassing
NR
one of the best songs of all time idc
Jockstrap - I Love You Jennifer B
86
London-based duo Jockstrap utilise their innovative perspective of pop to catapult this impressive debut into an exhilarating trip. Its abundance of experimentations is bewilderingly eccentric, with each track being a sharp curveball from the last, disorientating the listener into a surreal sense of ecstasy. Despite its slippery sound, this album is never cumbersome; in fact, it is quite the opposite. Jennifer B reveals itself in its manic diversity, offering a mutating pop monster that is just ... read more
Ethel Cain - American Teenager
NR
the 'it's just not my year' line cutting a little deeper than i'd like to admit 🤠
Björk - Debut
82
Hot off the heels of her success with The Sugarcubes, Björk was hungry to explore new sounds as a solo artist. Shaped by the blossoming underground club scene in London and a variety of world music instrumentation, 'Debut' is brimming with eclectic influences. Defined by its euphoric innocence, this album documents Björk's first foray into a sound that is truly singular.

Hey cal, I am once again an AOTY user asking for your time.

Self-promos aren’t something I usually feel comfortable doing, since if you’re not interested in what I’m promoting then I don’t really wanna make you watch something you don’t care about. And if that’s the case, feel free to just ignore me, I probably won’t ever do shoutbox promos again anyway lol. But I recently dropped Part 1 of my top 20 songs of 2023 and spent a TON of time on editing and stuff so I’m gonna self-indulge a little bit here. If you’ve got the time or it sounds like something you’d be interested in, I’d love to know what you think of it! Thank you!

Hey Cal! I've been wanting to do a community list for a long time, and I would love if you would participate!
The list is all about hot takes.
Albums you hate that people love, artists you think are overhated, and anything else that is music related.
Feel free to give an explanation for your choice!
Thanks!!!

Hey strangegeyser! I hate promoting things but this occasion is really special! I recently hit 500 legends following me! So, to celebrate that milestone I decided to put together my first community list from all of those who supported me along the way!

I wasn't sure what to do as pretty much everything has already been done, so I decided on this:

Imagine you're in an apocalypse, the whole world has gone to peril and you can only play one special song before everything perishes, what song are you picking and why? It doesn't need to be just one song, it can be a variety of songs if you can't choose just one.

I’ll compile everyone’s results over the next few days and I’ll let you know once the list is ready!

Thank you for your time! if you don't want to participate then ignore this message :)
