here’s a thread of the objectively best albums of 2020 so far:

i go absolutely feral listening to this record. it’s pop infused with metal sound just triggers something in my brain that i can’t get enough of https://open.spotify.com/album/4LgpVx8efQT7SRXGRq5Tze?si=GptY1ZFcQz242NnEtWkvJg

this is grimes’s best work to date. it’s dark, ethereal, and each song is like its own tantalizing world. a classic in the making https://open.spotify.com/album/35qyYk6OV6H8GxhS80NkzF?si=oD7R2Q-YQB2dWqPJ4MSPQg

this album is for the glamorous goths and queer punks. hmltd blend genres so easily and their eccentric apocalypse is just a joy to experience https://open.spotify.com/album/5kpHI7Y7YVy4DlR4NUwKQ5?si=ft6d08wDRKSc08IHVUP4BQ

now this is how you do a debut album. in many ways, 070 shake plays with sounds that are ubiquitous right now. however, the futuristic production and personable lyrics elevate the trap sound to new heights. https://open.spotify.com/album/1PCwiCVNp2V1Jcp8hSUEyB?si=lVwmzRE0QjmdltPLkM5yAQ

caribou’s latest is sonic bliss. the warm synths, soft vocals, and playful samples all make for a breezy listen that makes you feel like you’re floating https://open.spotify.com/album/4wSb7OhVUzw3u76lta9fJw?si=06W5euwASqK2W-to_mj0Jw

even at their most accessible, yves tumor always makes compelling music. this latest effort speaks to an obsession for love, even if it’s at the expense of your own identity. it’s sexy, gruesome, and energizing https://open.spotify.com/album/5wnCTZtzIZxasRSHzI1JeW?si=OUj80izgR9qw_bdVI2tqxg

yaeji’s first lp is both inward and communal, dealing with anxiety and a need for others. as expected, the production here is beautiful and her vocals comfort me like nothing else can right now https://open.spotify.com/album/150xIoPgnDoEfRvd0paiIc?si=r4twZPipTIOijMQB6dyRLg

after receiving threats against my own safety if i don’t do this, i have decided to include loona’s latest ep in this thread and i advise all of you stan loona to protect your families https://open.spotify.com/album/6rOL2mghTfDyx5CY0eU1Dn?si=xBEYZ2UHQTOO1CbNpMBFGg
