AOTY 2016

Been a few days since I've been around here, finished my albums of the year for last year about a week ago but didn't pay too much attention to the aoty threads. What do your guys' charts look like?

Rate/judge/rec if you feel the need

Have you not heard Blackstar or were you not a big fan?

...

Gonna be totally honest, it never managed to click with me after three listens. I appreciate it for what it is but it just wasn't right for me. I was never too big into Bowie in the first place even despite the different waves he went through.

my overall favourite is free somebody I think (actually listening to it right now)

most of these I don't know but oh no is great

Oh No actually surprised me, didn't expect to enjoy it as much as I did, really good album

Is their a definitive 2016 chart more or less agreed upon by Sup Forums?

Average the ranks of Pitchfork and Fantano and that should just about do it

r8 my garbage taste.

Also any underrated gems I should give a chance?

I know my list looks a lot like other lists from pitchfork, npr, etc.

Oh well...I also didn't listen to as many albums as I'd have liked this year.

Sup

Kanye West - The Life of Pablo
The Avalanches - Wildflower
Kero Kero Bonito - Bonito Generation
Chairlift - Moth
Charli XCX - Vroom Vroom
Danny Brown - Atrocity Exhibition
Chance the Rapper - Coloring Book
Noname - Telefone
Kamiyah - A Good Night in the Ghetto
Tegan and Sara - Love You to Death
Whitney - Light Upon the Lake

that's all i really liked from this year tbqh

an album came out this year that looked interesting.

the cover was like an asian girl in kimono lying near tide-pools i think

Weyes Blood - Front Row Seat to Earth?

yup thanks m8

so are counting RTJ3 as 2016 or 2017?

I'd say 2016

Well considering it was released in 2016

...

The music of David Bowie has never interested me

Have you heard any music from the Secret Songs label?
