A selection of 2019 albums

IQ

^ Sweet. For my 2019 concert memories, I remember missing out on tickets to see Stereolab in concert that year.

My top 5 from 2019

My own Top 30:

^ MY tastes often will adapt and change depending upon what I'm feeding it, I find. I'm quite impressionable and malleable, as long as the music can somehow resonate with personality traits often (I'm a reserved person). I have heard various tracks from Thieves' Kitchen that I enjoyed. Just listened to music from Genius Loci ("Eilmer") and yes, strong National Health vibes. I like it; thanks, Will. :)

Thanks for all of your lists and responses. Really happy when people do share what they appreciate outside of the given lists, as well as sharing what they know and appreciate on the given lists as well. I have discovered much music over the years here by people mentioning other choices. Greg Foat was mentioned, and I will look into him more (love what I have heard from him), and will look into various others. I should check out that Morglbl; a band I discovered and then suggested to PA long ago (I only liked to suggest that which I appreciated).

Like with George, 2019 does seem a long (and different) time ago, and I couldn't remember much of what I liked then from the year, nor did I look it up. Most of what I listed that I like I got to know more recently.

Cisnienie was one of my favourite discoveries that I am pleased to have suggested for PA inclusion and was most excited about being added. Weyes Blood's Titanic Rising is the one I have listened to the most, partially because Weyes Blood is something my wife also loves. I love various of her albums, but And in the Darkness, Hearts Aglow has received the most spins. Lingua Ignota was a great discovery for me thanks to its suggestion thread in this forum. Caligula Rising may be harder listening than Sinner Get Ready, but I hugely appreciate both albums.

black midi is a band I grew to love, although I have turned to the later albums more. I think I discovered The Comet Is Coming through the Interactive Polls; really like this album. Secret Chiefs 3 is a favourite of mine, and I got to know this more thanks to some forum conversation. Swans is of course a band I have often talked about over the last few years, and I enjoy all of it albums from Children of God up. Motorspsycho I have come to appreciate much more recently. Uboa is a favourite of mine.

Duster and Angel Olsen were recent discoveries of mine. And the other one I really like is Vanishing Twin's The Age of Immunology. I love Stereolab, Broadcast, Komeda, Pram...., and this is very much music of that ilk. If one likes Stereoloab and/or Broadcast, then I would think this would appeal. De Lorians was one I know in 2019 at least.

As for most of the rest, the options were chosen by searching charts and used even if the music is outside my wheelhouse/ interests. And I love various King Gizz albums, but I have not yet listened to the one in this list in full.

Not sure how to vote, but I feel like going Lingua Ignota right now (I know not all that know it here appreciate it as much as me -- it is a tortured output).
