The fact that we only share 1 album with our of the year lists excites and intrigues me. Definitely an interesting list, some of what you've listed i've definitely enjoyed as well. I am shocked given the entries that there were things missing from it (Get to Heaven & In Colour among others) but this was definitely an interesting list with some polarizing stuff on it. Great job

Awesome list! Thanks for shouting out Mumford and Sons; I felt like the band's first two albums were a bit overblown but they won me over with this one. I loved the albums from Kacy Musgrave, Joey Badass, Twenty One Pilots, Father John Misty, Wolf Alice and (of course) Kendrick too. My top ten favs of the year include Somewhere Under Wonderland by the Counting Crows, Back on Top by the Frontbottoms, and Thumbs by alternative rapper Busdriver. I think you would really like the Counting Crows record, it's a great return to form.

Thanks for taking the time to put this all together! I can't wait to check out the albums on your list that I've missed. Glad to see that your fan base has increased and that your videos overall have gotten even better (i.e. quality, your presence in the video, experimental humor? lol) ARTV is going strong woooo!

[@nice-guyhunter4013]

Totally agree with number one. Such a great album for a debut. I didn't expect to see it here, but hey, the more people who know about them, better.

[@artvjon]

Woohoo!

[@jm10BTR]

GREAT. i was looking forward to this.

[@ImTheKat1]

Well this had jokes as well as some of my favorite albums on here. So Great Work as usual

[@artvjon]

Thanks :)

[@RpgCrow]

I haven't watched one of your videos in a while I gotta say I love the new LP intro

[@weirdalfan124]

Future hearts (all time low) that's the spirit (bring me the horizon) blurryface (twenty-one pilots) and madness (sleeping with sirens) in my opinion were all amazing albums from this year and I heavily respect your opinions on your list in the video

[@sophiebahr3432]

omg same!!

[@rosefriend5455]

Love those albums!!

[@trymikefirst]

1. Kendrick Lamar - To Pimp A Butterfly (Not just the album of the year, but one of the best albums of all time) 2. Drake - If You're Reading This Its Too Late (A mixtape light years better than his usually disappointing studio albums) 3. Pusha T - Darkest Before Dawn: The Prelude (King Push is taking over the world) 4. Dr. Dre - Compton (Well thought out and underrated final studio album by the West Coast legend) 5. The Weeknd - Beauty Behind The Mindness (Not as great as Starboy, which is on my top 10 for 2016, but still great) 6. Travis Scott - Rodeo (Not as enjoyable as Birds, but still great) Fill in the rest as you want as I can't think of any more, sorry. PS. Why are there so many edgy kids here? Why do they have annoying and subpar artists like Melanie Martinez and twentyonepilots at their number one? They need some Kendrick and Pusha T in their life!

[@tobieolson242]

HPF Mav "Usually disappointing"? Wtf you talking about? Views is his only disappointment and it's still pretty good.

[@trymikefirst]

Tobie Olson I don't see anything particularly amazing with his studio albums. They always end up being love notes with occasional rap songs. The only Drake album I like is Thank Me Later.

[@internetgremlin7171]

HPF Mav lol I know how annoying those people can be, but everyone's got their opinions

[@trymikefirst]

hannah yo True

[@foreverboy5492]

at least you spelled twenty one pilots right

[@readyformoore]

This is going to be an interesting list. Quite a few 4/5's this year. And nice haircut.

[@3waycrash]

Nice picks for your top favorites of the year! I appreciate hearing your thoughts on each album :) My favorites for the year (in no particular order): * twenty one pilots - Blurryface * Foxing - Dealer * The Dear Hunter - Act IV: Rebirth in Reprise * Icarus the Owl - Pilot Waves * mewithoutYou - Pale Horses

[@Floral_Green]

Dealer made me feel things

[@benk1489]

My Top 5: 5. Hate Me: Escape The Fate 4. Venom: Bullet For My Valentine 3. Book Of Souls: Iron Maiden 2. Silence In The Snow: Trivium 1. Sol Invictus: Faith No More

[@anishasrikar4996]

Wow I have never heard of some of these artists...since you're my favourite music reviewer and you make sure to include often overlooked albums, I'm going to give most of them a chance.

[@Nagyadam9000]

Nice to see someone, who's taste I can relate. Chvrches, twenty one pilots, etc... was on my list too. Plus the new Awolnation, but I Think you familiar with that. If I can recommend something I would say the new Agent Fresco album. It was my album of the year, I went to their concert to an other country, it was worth it. It's a band from Iceland, check out if you have time (Dark water, pyre, wait for me...). It's a masterpiece.

Where is CAL CHUCHESTA!? Seriously though, as always an awesome list, not that I love everything on here (Muse, Mumford & Sons) but it was a really interesting list and I'll definitely have to check out the few records on here that I haven't heard yet (and thanks for the recommendation of Wolf Alice back when you first reviewed that album, it's a great listen)

[@woodyhitya]

Woah, actually kinda shocked you didn't include The Wonder Years or Neck Deep on here, I was also kind of expecting you to put Knuckle Puck on there too. Really expected some more pop punk on here but it's all your opinion
