I haven't had a good year this year. Mate, you've not had a good year for about 25 years according to the rate your mood thread. I bet the last time I had a good year you probably still had a few strands of hair left on your head. |

All these lists only prove I've not listened to enough albums this year at all.

The love for the Amyl and the sniffers album is a bit weird. Now, I really do like that band, a shit-ton of fun. But they've gone for this more straight up rawk sound, it's fun, don't get me wrong, but it's really nothing special either.

I won't be submitting a best of this year, I'm not even sure I've listened to 15 new albums, and nothing has really stayed with me. For shame.

But they've gone for this more straight up rawk sound, it's fun, don't get me wrong, but it's really nothing special either. I think it has a lot of substance. It surprused me actually- i'd never heard them at all before this week. But i'm not sure we've agreed on much music wise recently! 😅 |

I think you'll be surprised when we do our end of year lists, I reckon we'll have a lot of crossover.

I hear Eric Clapton has a lockdown acoustic album! I still expect a top 6, even a top 10. You've got a few weeks to get your arse in gear |

I bought an old LP of “live cream” the other day and felt bad about it, but at least he won’t get any money out of me for it. |
