Well, Kiwanuka as mentioned above by @James. Beyond that, Lankum, Ohtis, Orville Peck, Kevin Morby, Jamila Woods, Little Simz, Bill Callahan, Virginia Wing, Kokoko, Society of the Silver Cross, Sleater Kinney, Tropical Fuck Storm, Ezra Furman, Lana Del Rey, Gruff Rhys, Brittany Howard, Moon Duo, Sturgill Simpson, Swans, The Leaf Library, William Doyle.

I'm loathe to mention much from the last two weeks but Bonnie Prince Billy may be up there for me and the Moor Mother album is very, very good indeed.

Uncut made Weyes Blood their album of the year, which surprised me a bit. Rough Trade have gone for Fontaines DC. Not seen any other end of year polls yet.
i got part way through the instrumental one and got bored... :cry:

The second half is defintely the better half.

I generally consider my albums of the year to be the ones I have returned to regularly well after their release date. With that being the case, mine are:
Chris Shiflett - Hard Lessons
Grade 2 - Graveyard Island
Bracket - Too Old to Die Young
Lana Del Rey - NFR
Better Oblivion Community Center
King Gizzard - Infest the Rat’s Nest
Amyl & The Sniffers
Kelsey Walden - White Noise / White Lines
Slipknot - We Are Not Your Kind
Michael Franti & Spearhead - Stay Human II
 
Technically, the decades have gone 1-10, 11-20. 21-30...... 2001-2010, 2011-2020. My album of the decade is "Nitpicking" by The Pedants.
If you are talking about “the best albums of the 90s” you would include 1990 but not 2000.

“What decade were you born in?”
“The 80s“
“Which year?”
“1990”

is that a similar pedants argument to the new millennium starting on the new year 00 to 01 & not 99 to 00?
