Top 29 Music Albums of 2021

Note: some of the joints may be given writing credits to Mercury, since I'm too busy trying to come up with exact wording, as well as giving props to the job Mercury has done. So if you find statements here and there that's related if not directly pasted from Mercury, U NO Y!
These write-up are more like comments than actual reviews/descriptions, and all of them have the same structure; taking about its correlation to other 2021 albums of its kind, its weaknesses, and its worst- and best songs....but I'm a combination of busy and lazy atm so...

70/100
The greatest songs on Cosmorama have staying power to them, and that was illustrated when I went back to this album. The played genre is executed pretty well in comparison with other 2021 acts (super psychedelic and kind of healing music), but songwriting looses focus and gravitational quality in the more average moments. I am mostly referencing the rhythmic moments which can kind of damage the atmosphere a bit, but it certainly isn't bad. If the album was better constructed in meditative/trippy moods and flowed tighter, it would be a superb little ride, top 5 worthy. It's simultaneously a shame that Vali is so short, because that song is the peak of neo-psychedelia anno 2021.
Still, one of the better albums of the year. Check it out for an urban summer. [First added to this chart: 07/14/2021]

Thanks for shouting me out. This chart is solid so far. Some of the comments (especially the one on Sharecroppers Son and on the best album cover of the year Solar Power) I don’t dig, but it’s great hearing your perspective.
The reason I don’t dig the Sharecropper’s Son comment is I don’t recall any country there. It’s got some country soul but that is very different. And yeah your point stands, most people don’t associate black people with country music. But country soul… well, there are not too many legends of that genre that aren’t black. But alas, I am dwelling. This chart and these comments are solid. I plan on writing something up about the new Mogwai soon. Thanks for the recommendation
. I recommend to you Delta Estácio blues by
Juçara Marçal - have been listening to it a lot lately and it’s awesome. Methinks
