Interesting list - I normally just find a way to put my most playeds into the top 10. But I get it. My current list:
1. Javelin Sufjan Stevens
2. The Maybe Man AJR
3. When We Were That What Wept For The Sea Colin Stetson
4. Canto Ostinato Simeon ten Holt / Erik Hall
5. False Lankum Lankum
6. After The Magic Parannoul
7. Seven Psalms Paul Simon
8. Saved! Kristin Hayter
9. Bendik Giske Bendik Giske
10. Live At Bush Hall Black Country, New Road
Thanks Hayden for the few recs that absolutely hit.

Stop the presses! Hayden also had a Teitur & Aarhus Orchestra album on his top 10 and this album is legit amazing. Gotta revisit.

Wait! What is this?! I'm so intrigued!
Already discovered Ryan Davis & The Roadhouse Band from it. Great, great find!

Oh nice glad you're both enjoying! And oh I'm so glad it spit out the Ryan Davis album, I've been rly digging that one in particular recently.
Regarding what this thing is, it's basically mad libs. A series of statements that have variables that get filled by a single entry on a list. Like for the one that is centered around rock music, it's
[A band] and [another band] are [statement that establishes these first two bands as a part of something, and then establishes a contrast with] [a third band] and [a fourth band].
For example, that connecting statement could say that the first two bands are "contributing thoughtfully to the rich history of rock. But some people have no respect and just want to tear it all up, like" two other bands. But I also tried to include as many instances where the opposite statement could be made, like I've got one that says something about how the first two bands are addicted to tearing up the rule book, and the latter two bands are the ones who respect history.
So yeah, just a fun little toy that can hopefully spit out some funny statements while simultaneously linking people to a wide variety of music.

Thanks  Especially glad to see you enjoyed the aforementioned three^ (Giske has obviously been inspired by Stetson, but he veers towards the minimal rather than Stetson's (sometimes) maximalism). Both are extremely impressive works. And Canto Ostinato is a lovely take on the work. Usually I'm not fond of porcelain cover versions, but there's this lovely super-cleanness to it. Sushi-esque.
And fun experiment Tap  I've run through it a few times— just got a 'This year was mediocre and I only need one word to prove it: SZA.' ... which, erm, brings me to:
| Quote: | | And Pitchfork's list came out yesterday, I missed it somehow |
It's just a list, blah blah blah, and for the most part it's fine, but... SZA??????? Geez. Very disappointing. Especially considering it's a 2022 record. Was hoping for Sufjan, but oh well.
