FYI @Woob_woob I've updated/edited my list.
I wanted to keep a Top 10 but I just can't, in good conscious, leave the Miniature Tigers' release off the list.
It cost Sara/American Football/Torche a point each...but it had to be done.

Had to edit this to put Bad Bunny a little higher. I'm listening to his album again and it's brilliant. People think I joke whenever I say this, but his album is one of the most revolutionary recordings in recent mainstream latin music.

1. Black Marble - Bigger Than Life (20) - it's just a really beautiful post-punk/goth album that's heavy on the synths and drum machines. Probably his most uplifting and poppy album to date. It's one of those albums you so quickly consume that you wish there was a second album coming out in the same year.
2. DIIV - Deceiver (15) - this is the highlight song (for me) from an excellent album. It's warm and fuzzy.
3. The Claypool Lennon Delirium - South of Reality (15) - Claypool is one of my favorite musicians of all time. One of a kind. I have been to countless shows, whether it's Primus, the Frog Brigade, the Fancy Band, Col. Claypool's Bucket of Bernie Brains, the CLD, or soon (come Feb. 2020) OYSTERHEAD! The tune linked below has an excellent jam section from an incredible sophomore album.
4. Whirr - Feels Like You (10) - dark shoegaze. I love that the tracks on this album bleed into each other. It calms me.
5. Com Truise - Persuasion System (10) - my favorite track from this one happens to be an ambient tune. Very unlike the rest of his mid-tempo synth funk.
6. American Football - LP3 (10) - I really got lost in this album while riding a train in Chicago. I grew up in SE Wisconsin when AF came onto the scene (and the whole Midwestern emo scene was exploding) . Nice to hear their twinkly guitars in 2019.

7. The National - I Am Easy to Find (5) - Love the female vocals. Made the album for me.

8. King Gizz - Infest the Rat's Nest (5) - Metal suits them. I appreciate the rare bass and guitar solos (so "un-Gizz" of them). Superbug. Sounds like SLEEP!

9. The Appleseed Cast - The Fleeting Light of Impermanence (5) - one of the most underrated bands in existence.

10. Khruangbin - 全てが君に微笑む (5) - technically a comp, but the LP came out in 2019. And I really love the artwork.
