Top 100 Music Albums of 2020 by 
Keatownrodriguez 
What an odd year for music. It was definitely good but it was so far removed from my expectations of what I thought I would be listening to this year. I had no idea I'd be listening to Taylor Swift all the time or that Sufjan would drop a great album. Not to mention how many of my favorite albums are from artists I wasn't familiar with before this year. Lots of surprises and lots of great records.
Top songs of the year so far in no particular order
If you're too shy let me know - The 1975
My Rajneesh - Sufjan Stevens (WHY WAS THIS A B SIDE!!!!)
Betty - Taylor Swift
You'll Miss Me When I'm Not Around - Grimes
Kill Them With Kindness - Idles
Featherweight - Fleet Foxes
Cyr - The Smashing Pumpkins
Beginning Of The End - Weezer
Gospel For A New Century - Yves Tumor
Aries - Gorillaz
I'm a Joestar - Open Mike Eagle
Hand Crushed By A Mallet - 100 Gecs (Fall Out Boy Remix)
I Ain't Nice - Viagra Boys
I Want To Touch You And Be Sure - Asian Kung Fu Generation
Peace to all freaks - Of Montreal
Run - Joji
Come Over - Matt Watson
Hollow - From FFVII Remake
Come & Go - Juice WRLD
JU$t - Run the Jewels
Black Licorice - Peach Pit
Paradise Lost - The Used
My Own Soul's Warning - The Killers
At The Door - The strokes

This is easily my favorite Strokes project and I just love the fact that a band that's been around for as long as them has the potential to outdo themselves so I have real respect for this project. It's basically a return to form at their peak that is aside from the inclusion of At The Door which I think is a big part as to why this album works so well. It acts as a centerpiece to the rest of the album in an amazing way.

I was not expecting to like this at all let alone be listening to it constantly since its release. From the opening moments of Conversation I realized I was really into the final songs of an artist who was taken at the start of his career. All the songs really drive home the sort of thought that were in Juice's mind on his final days. It gets downright touching on songs like Rightous and Wishing Well. Yet it has amazing bangers like Come & Go (seriously it's so driving) and the closer Man of the Year which leaves you feeling some hope after the mostly sad album.

2020 Thouhgts: Gambino has so much more potential, not that I didn't enjoy it, I thought Algorithym, 19.10 and a few choice other songs were great. But it was just such a step back from the amazing Awaken My Love. This better not be his last record, I need more.
2024 thoughts - This album rules. It is in no rush and loves to sit in the emotion it creates. [First added to this chart: 03/24/2020]

Wow what a surprise! Taylor decided to give her ego a backseat on this album and let’s her gift for lyricism shine for the whole record. Such vivid warm imagery on each track with equally pleasant instrumentation to complement it. Definitely give Betty, August and The Last American Dynasty a listen then the whole album of you enjoy those tracks

It took me a while to really like this album just because usually my first few listens to albums are very causal. Usually, I'm either going to bed, cleaning the house, driving, or just doing anything instead of just sitting down and listening to the music. At least for me, this is an album that has to be focused on at least your first few listens. Having it on in the background it just sort of comes off as standard indie fare. But when given the proper attention it deserves you can see just how masterfully indie tropes are used here. DVD Menu + Garden Song + Kyoto work great as laying the groundwork for the combinations of descriptive lyrics and distorted softness although I do wish the horns and similar instruments used in Kyoto were more prevalent. The rest of the album does tend to mill a little in a way that's not as amazing as the start but there is so much to love in the seemingly aimless. Of course, there's the closing track that brings back the bombastic emotion.
