I just noticed while writing this that all these four clock in at 40-42 minutes, which is a length that greatly agrees with me. I have listened to Mastodon some years ago, not so much these days, but I wanted to check out their new album. It’s 1 hour 26 minutes long and simply too long for a collection of songs which aren’t that different. I had to check if I was listening to a Deluxe Edition with various bonus songs and fluff. For albums to work with that length, I prefer concept albums which has a distinct difference between two sides. Still, I prefer albums that land between 40-50 minutes.

Those 4 are right at the top of my list.

I'll add

Alex Ward - Gated
Graham Costello's Strata - Second Lives
Desertion Trio - Numbers Maker
A Holy Family - s/t
Emma Jean Thackeray - Yellow
Ske - Insolubilia
Sons Of Kemet - Black To The Future
Squid - Bright Green Field

I'm not usually posting in these threads as I rather expect to get hold of 2020 between 2021 and 2028... Anyway, Battlestations "Splinters Vol. I: Tremor" impressed me far more than I'd have expected and more than anything (prog) I have heard of 2019 or 2020 (although I'm not done with these years yet for sure).
