It’s high time we have one of these threads! Post what you liked, what you didn’t like, recommendations for stuff released on 2023, whatever you want. I’m trying to speedrun like a million albums because so much stuff was dropped this year and I just wasn’t in the mood for keeping track of it but here are my picks for best albums of 2023 from the stuff I did get around to listen:
World’s End Girlfriend - RESISTANCE & THE BLESSING (post rock, glitch)
King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard - PetroDragonic Apocalypse (thrash metal, stoner metal)
Chini.png - El Día Libre de Polux (art pop, shoegaze)
Full of Hell, Nothing - When No Birds Sang (sludge, post metal)
Klein - Star in the Hood (Sound Collage)
I don’t listen to full albums that much anymore so this is mostly just a list of the few I actually liked enough to listen to completion
Skrillex - Quest For Fire
Kali Uchis - Red Moon In Venus
Rebecca Black - Let Her Burn
Amaarae - Fountain Baby
Jane Remover - Census Designated
100 gecs - 10,000 gecs
and here are some artists I like who released albums this year that I haven’t gotten around to listening to in full yet:
Kelela, Oneohtrix Point Never, James Blake, Yves Tumor, Hannah Diamond
