- Post subject: Is it too hurriedly if I call 2015 the best year in Music?
|
maybe i'm just going through the hype, but when I just remember the beginning of the year, I thought Kendrick lamar's album is going to be the best by a wide margin. And man was I wrong. This year was Full of Surprises. The Albums released were really My type. That Electric/Indie/Experimental kind thing. I have around 8 Albums from 2015 in my chart . In general it was a really decent year with a lot of great artists having a release. And also we had some really Coll Debutes. so I think That 2015 will be remembered as on of the top 3 years in Music.
What do you think ?

I think it is a very good year, but I hesitate on calling anything in the realm of objectivity (best, worst).

It certainly has been a great year, easily my favorite of this decade so far. Personally I haven't really been seeking out new music as fervently as I've done in the past, yet I've found more albums I love this year than I have in any other single year. But I'd say it's definitely too early to call it the best year...these things need some time to age, like a fine wine. Who knows, maybe in a couple years some of your favorite albums from this year will feel tired and played. Or maybe they'll seem even better.

That is totally a matter of individual opinion. As a greater variety of musical styles emerge and music becomes more available than ever before, it is tempting to get a bit hyperbolic. Will 2015 stand the test of time the way great music years of the past have? We'll find out in 15 years or so.
Personally, I consider 2015 a big improvement over the last three years, but still not even my favourite music year of the 10s.

The best year in all of music? No. I think that's stretching it. The best year for this decade's music? I can get behind that. This has definitely been an outstanding year for music.
I also have mad respect for the community for having 7 female/female led artists in the year's top 20 alone. All of which have released stunning albums this year.

I'm assuming Grimes will also take a slot in due time. Female artists have really stood out this year. Between Julia Holter, Joanna Newsom, Matana Roberts, Courtney Barnett, Bjork, Holly Herndon, Susanne Sundfør, Sleater-Kinney, Lianne La Havas, Jenny Hval, Torres, Marling, Jepsen, Prass, etc.... It's really been fantastic.
Anyway, I don't believe 2015 is the best year for music ever. I'd say it's perhaps the best of the decade so far though.

Okay, I used this thread as an opportunity to look at my 2010s chart and see how the decade's been going.
http://www.besteveralbums.com/thechart.php?c=15815
It seems like 2013 is the year with the most "exceptional' releases for me, though 2012 is when I "felt" the music scene the most. Maybe I'm just a fuddy-duddy or a contrarian, but I only have about fifteen 2015 albums that are good enough for this list currently, which doesn't even put it in the top 3 years.
