Cant even remember what came out in 2015 that i liked other than that one though

[Boiled Dove]

I did not get much that was released this year but I did really enjoy:

Heems - Eat, Pray, Thug

Marina and the Diamonds - Froot

Best Coast - California Nights

[suburbanxcore]

The Action Bronson record has killer moments, but falls flat as a whole album for me. I need to check out Turnover and the new Torche and Deafheaven records that people mentioned. A friend of mine has been raaaaaving about Turnover, and I always like Torche but never fully invest. They blew me away live in a house a few years back. The previous Deafheaven record took me by surprise, so who knows?

In some particular order:

Touche Amore and Self Defense Family (collab record) - Self Love

Blacklisted - When People Grow, People Go

The Wonder Years - No Closer to Heaven

Desaparecidos - Payola

Beach Slang - The Things We Do to Find People Who Feel Like Us

Pet Symmetry - Pets Hounds

Dr. Dre - Compton

mewithoutYou - Pale Horses

Kyle Kinane - I Liked His Old Stuff Better

[CultExciter]

Man, so much good stuff.

In no particular order:

JLin - Dark Energy

Jason Isbell - Something More Than Free

Drug Church - Hit Your Head

Young Fathers - White Men Are Black Men Too

Leviathan - Scar Sighted

Positive No - Glossa

Vince Staples - Summertime '06

Protomartyr - The Agent Intellect

Beach Slang - The Things We Do To Find People Who Feel Like Us

Sweet Cobra - Earth

Blistered - The Poison Of Self-Confinement

[suburbanxcore]

I forgot about that new Drug Church. The last EP was my favorite thing by them since the demo, so I think I'd be into it.

[sourpussoctopus]

No love for Vulnicura by Bjork? That was her best since the Homogenic/Vespertine days.

[Synesthesia]

I haven't really given this much thought, but I know for sure my favorite album of the year is Megiddo's "The Holocaust Messiah." I also really liked the new Mgla, Hate Eternal, Gnaw Their Tongues (and the collab with Dragged Into Sunlight), and Leviathan full lengths...as far as EPs, I liked Cosmic Church's new one and the new Vorum. My vote for "most fun" album would probably be Visigoth's "The Revenant King."

(Why yes, I do listen to metal almost exclusively)

@CultExciter - finally downloaded the Drug Church lp this weekend. It's awesome. I like it way more than Paul Walker.

This Julien Baker record, Sprained Ankle, is absolutely murdering me lately. If I'd heard it earlier it would've definitely made my list.
