Chorus.fm Members EOTY Lists 2016 • Page 29

its all about being possessive and shit, to me it is very clearly contextualized as a redefined perspective on her relationship with jay following the infidelities

 

that's the ironic part!

 

I'm like squinting my face trying to see it, that maybe makes sense I'll try to listen again

 

no special order but good records

touché amoré - stage four
hurula - vapen till dom hopplösa
emma ruth rundle - marked for death
savages - adore life
angel olsen - my woman
pascal - revy
all get out - nobody likes a quitter
super unison - auto
exploded view - exploded view
kevin devine - instigator

 

The best EPs of the year are serpentwithfeet - Blisters and Charli XCX - Vroom Vroom

 

My list is just full of creatively bankrupt indie rock and I totally hate pop music yup




Maybe some people just don't like lemonade that much. Shocker

 

Really wasn't into that serpentwithfeet ep. Will probably have to revisit it a few times tho

 

Bonzai's Sleepy Hungry and Lunacy were the two best EPs.

 

You seem to have tendency to think that every statement that I make that could be about a lot of people is specificaly about you. I did not address you directly, I do not remember your list. Generalizations can be true even if some individual people have different reasons. Whether or not you think a general statement applies to you is up to you to decide. There is definitly "indie rock" bias among a certain crowd (to which Chorus somewhat belongs) that leads to questionable perceptions and interpretations of other genres.

No shots.

 

I just think a generalization based on one album not making lists is beyond absurd. And since it's not on my list I fall in that generalization. The indie rock bias isn't that bad, not compared to the past

 

I think it's the most transcendent piece of music I've heard this year, maybe even this decade.

 

Lemonade is just the biggest one of a group of somewhat similar albums that aren't widely listed in here

 

I think I've seen anti more than lemonade tbh. What other pop albums came out that were great? Dangerous woman was whatever outside of the singles. CRJ was just an EP of bsides. What other a listers put out top shelf pop albums?

 

Rihanna

 

read the first sentence of my post fam

 

Lol oops

 

Lemonade is #1 on my list because I like those songs grouped together on a record more than a lot of other songs grouped together on a record this year.

 

I know it definitely wasn't the style of r&b I was expecting, so that might be part of it. I'll def try it again and see if it sticks more

 

also if u wanna see what my list looks like :)

 

That Oathbreaker record is the first one I've liked of the genre.

I also kept typing in Oathkeeper when searching for them because Oathkeeper is a key blade.

 

@sophos34 Lemonade is not just a random Pop album. Lemonade, Seat At The Table, Tribe Album (and more) in my mind are all similar in that they are "critically acclaimed" (code for good) and big (code for people mighis have heard them) albums that are, among other things, about the black experience. Like I said, this doesn't apply to you, you have YG on your list so we're cool.

 

The tribe album is on a ton of lists I've seen here, I mean I haven't read every list but it seems to be represented rather well for a hip hop album

 

And if we're talking about black albums I'd say the problem has less to do with people liking indie rock and more to do with most people on this website being white

 

The problem w/ lists is the lack of Jeffery. Both Rosenstock and Thug

 

Albums can be important and meaningful and also not that good

Albums can be important, meaningful and good and still not connect to you.
