Absolute Elsewhere by Blood Incantation.
The New Sound by Geordie Greep though this was a stellar year for albums imo and it's hard to pick just one
Agree with the whole comment but yeah I love every song of The New Sound, especially The Magician. Also I "discovered" black midi at the beginning of the year and was sad to learn they splitted, thankfully Greep released this masterpiece.

Songs of a Lost World by The Cure
Ooh another opportunity to yell from the rooftops how great "Nobody Loves You More" by Kim Deal is! :) Honestly a fully fantastic album that I love. :)
"Romance" by Fontaines DC was another brilliant one!
ooh and the new Cure album!
Still haven't listened to the new Cure album. But Romance is probably my AOTY. Nobody Loves You More is great.
A friend of mine put on that Kim Deal album for me the other day when we were talking about albums that came out this year. I’ve only heard it the one time so far, but agree it was great!
The year just started, I haven't even had a chance to record my annual 12 Farts Of The Year yet..
The only "real" album that came out in 2024 that I listened to start-to-finish was Hyperdrama by Justice. It got a lot of flak online for being "uninspired" etc etc, but I think that mostly speaks to how great their first two studio albums were. The opening track on this one features Tame Impala and has an equally awesome music video.
After that, second place would be a tie between two 2024 live albums: ¡Blow it … at Madison's Quinceañera! by Me First and The Gimme Gimmes and Beast of Horns by They Might Be Giants. I got the latter on vinyl for Christmas and it's a lot of fun if you're a fan.
Hey someone else who likes Justice and They Might Be Giants!
Missed that they had a new album, thanks!
- Do Not Go To War With The Demons Of Mazandaran by Lowen.
- Erosion / Avulsion by Hidden Mothers
- Bloom & Decay by Dawn Treader
- Absolute Elsewhere by Blood Incantation
- Hellfenlic by The Infernal Sea

CHROMAKOPIA
Definitely a tie between Where Have "All The Merrymakers Gone?" (Harvey Danger), "Example" (Four Squirrels), and "Four" (Blues Travelers). Definitely my most played and favorite albums of 2024.
As of this year, it's looking like "Ten Thousand Fists" (Disturbed) is taking the lead as my favorite. We could see an upset folks!
I'm not trying to shit on your here but really? A bunch of 90s bands putting out old age money grabs? I assume you didn't mean to misspell Blues Traveler.
And I'm waiting for the punch like this person has to have a good one and it's fucking Disturbed? Ohh ah ah ah ah, Disturbed? Yeah I liked them when I was a young teen when that came out. Fuck my life I came to this thread hoping for new shit. You have to be joking.
Didn't realize I put the extra "s" in "Traveler". Also, to each their own. Never got to experience any of these albums growing up since I wasn't there to experience the 90s and was too young to be able explore the 2000s metal scene until at least the 2010s (if I had become interested in it) and appreciate it. So, I definitely stick with picking stuff I've started listening to relatively recently over something new, especially since I'm not a big fan of modern English pop music and don't have any albums from any foreign bands/singers I like (assuming they still do CDs).
I'm not even the person you're replying to, but you're formally invited to kiss my ass anyway. When op asked for "your" album of the year, they didn't mean you specifically.
I'm with Ace, I don't think I could name an album from the past 5 years. Artists and songs, sure, but I'm not looking up album titles, or even listening to an entire one from start to finish.
Imaginal Disk by Magdalena Bay, though almost shared 1st place with Charli XCX' BRAT remix album.
Thought I'd see more BRAT in this thread. I guess lemmy just doesn't serve cunt like I'd hoped.
PowerNerd by Devin Townsend
They had a hard act to follow after their nearly perfect self-titled album, but Cure was almost as good, and that is mighty praise indeed.
Enjoyed 'Yesterwynde' by Nightwish a lot last year
All About the Bones by Chris Smither:
https://youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_m5juHHLewlTZVC2XvbjZH-HKvRFeJHa1c
My favorite track:
I like this a lot. I've never had a record make me hungry before but gawdamn now I want that Cajun suppah.
He's got you covered!
Beans and okra would be just great right now. My wife made banging cabbage stew yesterday so Imma eat that.
The Poetic Edda by Synestia and Disembodied Tyrant
A Fortress Called Home by Seven Spires
Jimmy Clifton - Crucified in Christ Not your typical Christian album.
Porter Robinson - Smile!
Wavedash - Tempo
objectively "the new sound" by geordie greep
personally (as a mega fan of THD) "exploitopia" by that handsome devil
All born screaming by St. Vincent
The opera singer Lisette Oropesa's Mozart aria album. An absolute perfect voice with impeccable technique.
The Last Dinner Party's Prelude to Ecstasy.
NOTHING MATTAHS
Brat
definitely aura safari - sensory blending
Time II by Wintersun. It was a long wait, but I'd almost call it worth it, 'cause the album is so good.
Different pick from most, but I really enjoyed "SMILE! :D" by Porter Robinson. I might be biased though. Porter is my all time favorite artist.
I forgot SMILE :D released this year! Also a really great album!
It really is! Although I still believe nothing will beat Nurture. That's not just Album of the year, it's the GOAT.
Night Palace by Mount Eerie for me
Maybe seconded by The New Sound by Geordie Greep
"Real Death" will always be the first song I think about when hearing someone mention "Mount Eerie"
:( First you're there, and then you're not.
The album that was released in 2024 that got the most plays was The Queen of Spades by Koan.
The album that I played the most was Unfold (2020) by Icarus
The Past Is Still Alive by Hurray for the Riff Raff.
Easily one of my most played of 2024. Shame I missed them when they came through my city. Loved the songwriting, the music and the singing. The whole album was strong and the vibe resonated with me.

Mine is 'Sangs of a Lost World' by 'the Cure'. It may even be my favourite Cure album.
