In less than a week from now, I'll be starting a full-time mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. This of course means I'm signing off AOTY. It's been a lot of fun!! If you're a reading this then there's a good chance are you've been incredibly nice and friendly to me on this site, and it doesn't go unnoticed!!
I don't know if I'll revisit AOTY after my mission (most likely exactly two years from when I start). We'll see, I guess. Who knows what kind of wacky life ... read more

Sandison: "oh you mean like a hidden track?"
Eion: "yeah yeah, like a hidden track!"
Sandison: "okay, that would be pretty cool, I suppose that would be in line with our previous very practical approaches to symbolism and conveying ... read more
And here I was thinking O Monolith would be the most unhinged album of 2023. Crank wave has officially gone too far
Man, the production on this song sounds so damn good. The progression is incredible. It's got a really positive message too, basically taking people who get all doomer about climate change and who think we might as well give up trying and slapping them all in the face, encouraging hope and progress rather than allowing for the destruction of the planet to perpetuate.
This is the kind of art that makes me want to be more creatively productive. Like whenever I'm slacking, I can put this kind of ... read more
Y'all did you hear that [famous youtuber] gave this album a negative review - and not only that, but people are hating on [famous youtuber] for that?? Finally - and I kid you not - people are actually copying [famous youtuber]'s opinions as if it's their own.
I really don't know what we could possibly do about this, as this is a completely new and unexpected phenomenon for the AOTY dot org. I guess it's time we all pack our bags and move to a better music community, like RateYourMusic or ... read more

hello wiloptics!
so, i'll make a quick question: what's a song that features some of your all-time favorite lyrics? if you're willing to, perhaps you could share one verse from it.
if you don't wanna participate, it's okay :)

Hey there wiloptics! I wanted to redo my review of an album that means a lot to me. It truly made my output on music different and caused me to look at things in a different light. It’s helped me through some really tough times, and it's very dear to me. It would make my day if you could give it a look!

One of the most interesting discographies I've encountered for sure. Incomplete, and will probably stay that way forever since they have like 2837821933619365^37.2853 associated projects
