Najljubši albumi leta 2021

[╭∩╮ samo_hren]

Leto 2021 je bilo polno izivov in za večino mnogo bolj preizkušajoče, kot bi si kdorkoli zaslužil. Na srečo je glasba univerzalna konstanta, ki bo venomer bodrila in nas spominjala tudi na dobro, ki nas čaka za vsakim kotičkom. Pozivam vse ljubitelje muzikalične robe, da podelite svoje favorite preteklega leta .

 

Sam sem utegnil lani preposlušati najmanj glasbe v zadnjih ducat letih, a je bila bera izvenserijskih albumov še vedno zelo visoka. Začenjam s častnimi omembami, ki so bile več kot solidne, a jim je nekaj magije vseeno zmanjkalo.

ZippeR reče pred 1 uro:

Beach House - Once Twice Melody

[indie, dream pop]

 

sori k sm that guy, sam tole je šele pol albuma zunaj (februarja bo full release)

[Avion]

Props @samo_hren ker dela seznam zadev, ki izidejo v enem letu, jaz sem ful slab v temu.  Če pa se orientiram po njegovem seznamu, bi sam rad izpostavil naslednje albume:

 

NAJBOLJŠE PLATE LETA:

 

THE ARMED - ULTRAPOP 

 

Verjetno najboljša full length izdaja letos. Nor kolektiv glasbenikov, ki so naredili nor album, sploh, ker sem spremljal njihov razvoj od praktično prve plate pa do danes. Posebno omembo dobi še live film, ki so ga posneli za PPV. 

 

GENGHIS TRON - DREAM WEAPON

 

Imo bi bilo najbolj fer, če bi rekel, da si deli prvo mesto z Ultrapop plato, če si že delijo vokalista. Odlične ideje, odlična izvedba, produkcija, pač vrhunski izdelek. 

 

BRIÍ - SEM PROPOSITO

 

Čeprav mi je zgoraj omenjen Kaatayra projekt odličen, ga nisem uspel dodobra preposlušati, da bi prišel na seznam najboljših plat. Sem Proposito pa sem in je odličen lo-fi trance/black metal projekt. 

 

LLNN - UNMAKER

 

Album, ki me je dodobra presenetil. Mogoče sam po sebi ni nič posebnega, me je pa našel v pravem času in sem ga kar precej preposlušal.

 

DEAFHEAVEN - INFINITE GRANITE

 

Meni prva in edina Deafheaven plata, ki mi je fenomenalna od prve do zadnje minute. Poleg Ultrapop ena izmed najbolj preposlušanih plat v letu 2021.

 

ULVER - HEXAHEDRON 

 

Sicer so Ulver v letu 2021 izdali dve izdaji, mi je tale live zares odličen primer neke bolj ambient elektronike.

 

SORDIDE - LES IDÉES BLANCHES

 

Francoski sludge/black metal, ki bi ga sicer lahko še malo bolj preposlušal, ampak mi je ostal v dober spominu.

 

DECOHERENCE - SYSTEM I

 

Podobno kot s Sordide, fin black metal.

 

SPECTRAL WOUND - A DIABOLIC THIRST

 

Uuuuuf, gladko najboljša black metal izdaja lanskega leta. Top. 

 

CULT OF LUNA - THE RAGING RIVER

 

Ne vem, če rabim zares omenjati švedske post metalce Cult of Luna z lanskoletnim albumom The Raging River, ki sam po sebi ni nič novega, je pa zelo fin izdelek. Always a fan.

 

BADBADNOTGOOD - TALK MEMORY

 

Odličen jazz/trip hop.

 

 

SECOND BEST / NISEM IMEL DOVOLJ ČASA ZA POSLUŠANJE:

 

AESOP ROCK X BLOCKHEAD - GARBOLOGY 

THE RUINS OF BEVERAST - THE THULE GRIMOIRES 

 

CYNIC - ASCENSION CODES

 

BLACK MIDI - CAVALCADE

 

AMENRA - DE DOORN

 

IDLES - CRAWLER

 

KNOCKED LOOSE - A TEAR IN THE FABRIC OF LIFE

 

ELDOVAR - A STORY OF DARKNESS AND LIGHT

 

SOARS - ENFOLD

 

WORM - FOREVERGLADE

 

CONVERGE - BLOODMOON

 

DEFACEMENT - DEFACEMENT

 

GREY AURA - ZWART VIERKANT

 

YEAR OF NO LIGHT - CONSOLAMENTUM

 

ALTARAGE - SUCCUMB

 

YAUTJA - THE LURCH

 

SONS OF KEMET - BACK TO THE FUTURE

3. januar 2022 uredilo bitje Avion

[Avion]

Fak, šele zdajle, ko sem šel skozi knjižnico v Spotifyu, sem videl, koliko enih zadev nisem preposlušal. Res škoda, da ta jebena aplikacija nima neke opcije "shuffle library" ali kaj podobnega, ker se mi zdi, da tako spregledam polovico albumov v zbirki. 

[Avion]

Hm, na seznam zanimivih plat, ki jih nisem uspel preposlušat, bi dodal še Turnstile - Glow On. 

 

Sicer se mi zdi celotna zadeva malce prenapihnjena, ampak pičkumater, da je zelo simpatičen album. 

 

In še odličen live posnetek:

 

 

[Vincent]

Ne poslušam veliko muske, če posebej ne novejše. Ampak  Pressure Machine od The Killers je meni fantastičen.

[Berbasecks]

@samo_hren uf, men je pa Imperial gladko najšibkejši album od Soen in veliko razočaranje

 

sam sem hotu dat tega, potam pa vidim da je še december 2020  (atmospheric post black metal)

 

 

 

praktično sem tolk malo poslušal 2021 glasbe, da bi izpostavil samo

 

The Ruins of Beverast - The Thule Grimoires

Mare Cognitum  - Solar Paroxysm

Wolves in the Throne Room - Primordial Arcana

edit: pozabu na Vvilderness - As Above, So Below

 

iz čist drugih SLO voda pa

Tsujigiri - Harakiri

SBO (Smrt Boga in Otrok) - Trans

 

bom pa sigurno sčekiral kaj iz vaših seznamov.
