The New Sound by Geordie Greep though this was a stellar year for albums imo and it’s hard to pick just one
Agree with the whole comment but yeah I love every song of The New Sound, especially The Magician. Also I “discovered” black midi at the beginning of the year and was sad to learn they splitted, thankfully Greep released this masterpiece.
Enjoyed ‘Yesterwynde’ by Nightwish a lot last year
The Poetic Edda by Synestia and Disembodied Tyrant
All About the Bones by Chris Smither:

My favorite track:
I like this a lot. I’ve never had a record make me hungry before but gawdamn now I want that Cajun suppah.
He’s got you covered!
Beans and okra would be just great right now. My wife made banging cabbage stew yesterday so Imma eat that.
Friko’s debut Album Where we’ve Been, Where we go from Here
Did not expect to see Friko in here but def agree that the debut is/ was awesome. Are you from Chicago? Has been fun to see them kinda explode over the past year or so.
Yeah I live in the burbs so I caught on when they were getting buzz on local Instagram pages and radio play on WXRT. I’m bummed I didn’t go see them at Thalia hall last week, I bet it was a great show.
The only “real” album that came out in 2024 that I listened to start-to-finish was Hyperdrama by Justice. It got a lot of flak online for being “uninspired” etc etc, but I think that mostly speaks to how great their first two studio albums were. The opening track on this one features Tame Impala and has an equally awesome music video.
After that, second place would be a tie between two 2024 live albums: ¡Blow it … at Madison’s Quinceañera! by Me First and The Gimme Gimmes and Beast of Horns by They Might Be Giants. I got the latter on vinyl for Christmas and it’s a lot of fun if you’re a fan.
Hey someone else who likes Justice and They Might Be Giants!
Missed that they had a new album, thanks!
Ooh another opportunity to yell from the rooftops how great “Nobody Loves You More” by Kim Deal is! :) Honestly a fully fantastic album that I love. :)
“Romance” by Fontaines DC was another brilliant one!
ooh and the new Cure album!
Still haven’t listened to the new Cure album. But Romance is probably my AOTY. Nobody Loves You More is great.
A friend of mine put on that Kim Deal album for me the other day when we were talking about albums that came out this year. I’ve only heard it the one time so far, but agree it was great!
Imaginal Disk by Magdalena Bay, though almost shared 1st place with Charli XCX’ BRAT remix album.
Thought I’d see more BRAT in this thread. I guess lemmy just doesn’t serve cunt like I’d hoped.
