Hayley Williams - petals for armor Dua lipa - future nostalgia Rina sawayama -sawayama Haim - women in music part 3 Taylor Swift - folklore

[@scuderia_rob]

It’s only been out for a day but Taylor Swift - Folklore might well the best album of the year so far. Genuinely brilliant from start to finish!

[@prabirpal2134]

Evermore is out now!!!

[@cameron8675]

Best album of 2020? folklore says hi.

[@DashieNegan41]

Haken: Omae Wa Mou Shindeiru

[@sosickandtiredofalltheneed568]

Folklore by Swift

[@amv_sensei]

The best album of 2*2* : Taylor Swift -folklore

[@senghong8156]

if people dont think Folklore is the album of the year, istg i-

[@senghong8156]

Zion Davis ppl have different taste so yeah

[@prabirpal2134]

Folklore is 100% AOTY:)

[@DashieNegan41]

I'll take Hellripper - The Affair of the Poisons over Folklore

[@gavinoconnor7754]

Def not better than Circles by Mac Miller

[@BongoFM]

After Hours 100% AOTY even though it got snubbed

[@andrewbair7810]

Adam I stand with you. One look at me and you'd never expect to find out how much love I have for Canada's queen of pop. Once I hear that opening sax part for Run Away With Me, it's over. Nothing else matters. You're not alone my dude.

[@tropical9913]

The Weeknd - After Hours

[@JackFleming2003]

For me it’s either: Hayley Williams - Petals for Armor The Strokes - The New Abnormal Run The Jewels - RTJ4

[@amv_sensei]

Folklore says HI!!

[@RockedNet]

Thumbs Up for Spanish Love Songs.

[@lucagaspare]

RTJ4 getting the respect it deserves😊

[@franklingoodwin]

Yes. And may I say you're did a great job with your daughter? I'm a big fan (and from the looks of this comment also a simp) 😆

[@lucagaspare]

franklingoodwin Bro, that’s my daughter. (u ain’t wrong tho😂)

[@charleshammel8541]

I was hoping they'd talk about Mike and El P

[@thetrashcan5558]

Wake Up Sunshine - All Time Low. It is honestly one of my favorite albums of all time, every single song is perfect and I love it.

[@gbollo91]

This so much. Not one bad tune on it. The bands best

[@staceybartlett1404]

Halsey- Manic Run The Jewels- RTJ4 Lady Gaga Dua Lipa- Future Nostalgia Charlie XCX- How I'm Feeling Amy Shark Troye Sivan

Horizons [Beyond The Black] Rough And Rowdy Ways [Bob Dylan] Electric Pentagram [Lovebites] Ordinary Man [Ozzy Osbourne] Gigaton [Pearl Jam] RTJ4 [Run The Jewels]

[@anesammardjia6866]

Why nobody is talking about folklore and chromatic?

[@anthonysmurthwaite6258]

I disagree by Poppy Unlocked by Denzel Curry and Kenny Beats Circles by Mac Miller How I'm feeling now by Charli XCX Punisher by Phoebe Bridgers

[@morigeshh]

Petals for Armor by Hayley Williams hands down And an honourable mention is Dance Gavin Dance - Afterburner

[@lotusmiragemusic]

1. Punisher (Phoebe Bridgers) 2. Imploding the Mirage (The Killers) 3. evermore (Taylor Swift) 4. Women in Music Pt. III (HAIM) 5. Petals for Armor (Hayley Williams)

[@seanelderbrant1277]

Loathe - I Let It In and It Took Everything, Polaris - The Death of Me, Boston Manor - GLUE, Bury Tomorrow - Cannibal, Hot Mulligan - you’ll be fine

[@madocofcatarina7190]

I love You'll Be Fine! Defo my fav so far

[@frakbuddy]

Petals For Armour is winning this year for me so far (especially in the EP form. However there's new Puscifer coming and the first song for it was amazing so I think that's going to win the second half of the year!

[@Fanged.Fiend.Reactor]

So far it’s either The Weeknd - After Hours Dau Lipa - Future Nostalgia Tame Impala - The Slow Rush

[@iqtadayasin6898]

No offence but folklore?

[@yogidesrifaldo5105]

@@iqtadayasin6898 i think it is not kind of his taste

[@madocofcatarina7190]

You'll Be Fine by Hot Mulligan is definitely at the top for me, with No Dream by Jeff Rosenstock somewhere underneath that.

[@etins0919]

My Favourite Is Chromatic. I can’t stop listening. When I thought nothing would make me happy in 2020 along come Lady Gaga with this feel good, catchy music that just makes me feel Happy and Joyful.

[@gagalover2k10]

Hard agree, I love rock and metal but Chromatica is probably the best pop album I’ve heard in a long time

[@sosickandtiredofalltheneed568]

@@gagalover2k10 Future Nostalgia says hi

[@gagalover2k10]

So Sick And Tired Of All The Needless Beating Chromatica struts on past like the bad bitch she is 💅🤣 jokes jokes, I’ll have to give it a listen I actually kind of liked her last album

[@gael1mendez]

Future Nostalgia is the best album of the year, PERIOD!

[@CarsonSenseney_metal_head666]

Testament's Titans of Creation Warbringer's Weapons of Tomorrow Havok's V The Black Dahlia Murder's Verminous are my favorites of 2020

[@thomasandrewclifford]

If anyone wants some lesser appreciated albums to check out in 2020. Don't waste your anger - Smith street band (Aussie emo alt rock) The long goodbye - Riz Ahmed (Political rap hiphop with some world music elements) I grow tired but dare not fall asleep - Ghostpoet (Fuck know what you'd class him as) Brave faces everyone - Spanish love songs (US Emo punk) Circles on Circles - Caspian (post rock)

A few of my favorites: Code Orange - Underneath Diet Cig - Do You Wonder About Me? Surf Rock Is Dead - Existential Playboy Higher Power - 27 Miles Underwater Gleemer - Down Through

[@Robv93]

Higher Power is a great shout. That’s a fantastic album

[@momomannu]

Diet cig so underrated

[@jolien391]

Mine has got to be Fetch the Bolt Cutters by Fiona Apple

[@lilholdin]

Hayley Williams - Petals For Armor is my number 1!

[@calemobrien1139]

I've grown to love Mother Monster over the last decade & Chromatica did not disappoint! Love it!!!😁 Hoping for a tour in the future but who knows what'll happen

[@Mpritchard1995]

The weekend and Kesha were fantastic and surprisingly the artist of covid lockdown period goes to dua lipa I’m not a big fan but the album is really good but the weeknds album was the best so far

[@6ftLeo]

After hours is an album that has to be in everyone's list. You can't name 1 thing wrong with the album. If you haven't I recommend you listen to it

[@2003jackb]

Can't believe what i'm about to type, but Taylor Swifts new album is so good.

[@DashieNegan41]

Not really i got bored after song 5

[@DashieNegan41]

@Androva J. not my album of the year Hellripper Imperial Triumphant and Oranssi Pazuzu where my top 3

[@DashieNegan41]

@Androva J. I dont give a white's ass it was overrated and badly mixed and hell no i am listening to that type of music its my fucking opinion okay stop kissing its ass

[@KOTF3005]

Mine has to be the ongoing Song Machine series by Gorillaz. Some of the best music they have put out, with a great list of features and some amazing spacey vocals.

[@TheDarkSatirist]

nobody mentioned Fetch the Bolt Cutters?

[@scarlettmacpherson4630]

Folklore is something fresh Its the best

[@connorchalmers8959]

Can't believe no one said Enter Shikari! How ever, massive yes for Spanish love songs, I think I've listened to brave faces everyone at least every week since it came out!

[@samairadayani5203]

Mine is DEFINITELY folklore

[@thomasandrewclifford]

Hell yes Spanish love songs! They totally came out of nowhere but that album is just consistently great. US emo punk doesnt always sound good on paper but I'd recommend that album to anyone and everyone regardless of music taste.

[@gagalover2k10]

Lady Gaga - Chromatica and Oliver Tree - Ugly is Beautiful I keep going back to rock albums that have already been around before 2020 but I’m going to check out Cannibal by Bury Tomorrow

[@TottiMessiTorres]

Everywhere I go, I never see "Local Honey" by Brian Fallon mentioned. Such a slept on album.

[@matthewdavies5678]

Love RTJ4, but it’s second to Punisher by Phoebe Bridgers (which also has best album artwork of the year for me😁)

[@heartlobster511]

Pop smoke’s shoot for the stars aim for the moon was beautiful

[@sweetcreature2475]

Folklore and Evermore are obviously the best, but a very underrated amazing album is CALM by 5sos. People always forget it.

[@zac4809]

For me it's Rise Radiant by Caligula's Horse

[@emoticon5765]

The weeknd after hours

[@JamesDavis-nu5lx]

Chromatica by Lady Gaga is the best album and is a comeback too as we never heard anything from her besides the movie and soundtrack she was in.

[@NotYourRobyn]

My favourite albums of the the year (so far) are What the Dead Men Say by Trivium, Feel Alive by State of Milennia and Guardians by August Burns Red.

[@gbollo91]

New addition since this video came out. Biffy Clyro - A Celebration Of Endings Jaw droppingly amazing

[@gizmo123265]

Thumb World, by The Pictish Trail. Difficult to pick ten, but there you go.

My favorites so far are: Afterburner by Dance Gavin Dance Brain Pain by Four Year Strong 1135 by Earthshatter And Lamb of God's self titled.

Come on what about Leave what’s lost behind -Colony House Someday I will make it up to you -Tyson Motsenbocker Springtime -Chris Renzema

Loathe - I Let it in and it took everything If you’re a metal fan, especially of deftones/djent/code orange you HAVE to check this album out

[@samlewis3477]

Loathe need more recognition, I instantly fell in love with two way mirror and gored. Absolute banger of an album, and a truly slept on band

[@arrolate]

Slift - Ummon, the best record of the 2020, period

[@moonlightisgreedy1027]

My favorite album of 2020 is confetti by little mix Sorry but that’s facts There’s not a bad song on it And even the worst song on it is so good Maybe it’s just my opinion but yeah

[@adhamsmithninercards8133]

Best 2020 album Declaration by Red

[@jamesorrell7462]

Mine Would be the EP "Message From The Future" by Wein Solo. I know the musician through a Facebook group I'm on and it's a really strong EP with great production and it's all made by one guy.

[@MrJacobrezac]

I’m going with Butch Walkers American Love Story. Great album and a great album for what’s going on this year.

[@Baby-Face-Grace]

For me it’s Punisher by Phoebe Bridgers

[@dynamicjaethought7788]

Haru Nemuri dropped her album in 2020. For a JPop/JRock/Japanese Rap album...it's off the chain. Or? Freddie Gibbs and Alchemist.

[@greytiger2502]

Has to be either Foreigner by Jordan Mackampa or To Let A Good Thing Die by Bruno Major for me personally

[@mikeyviers1785]

Taylor swift folklore

[@willreactionsgamesandvlogs8032]

Polo g - the goat Juice wrld- legends never Die

[@hoodieinfestation]

RTJ4 and the new Oranssi Pazuzu record so far. Though I see some contenders on the horizon.

[@DubiousJackson]

Josh, what’s your favourite NOACF song? And if it’s not either what should I say, frail state of mind or too shy, I might cry!

[@joshbroown]

All top top bangers there. Frail or Think There's Something You Should Know, currently

[@DubiousJackson]

Both yours are definitely strong choices! What’s your opinion on shiny collarbone?

[@connorduncan9859]

Sepultura’s new album Quadra was amazing there best alum in years. Also the new lamb of god album was really good. And last I’d say underneath by code orange was a really interesting album so looking forward to see where they go from that.

[@MarcGallagherMusic]

I’d say Perfectionist by Will Jay Or Rainbow Boy by Keiynan Lonsdale

[@MartinHCollection]

Gaslighter by The Chicks!!

[@samuelhenstock1076]

I've got three right now that are fighting for the top spot. Lorna Shore/ Immortal Aeternam/ Al Qassam Haken/ Virus

[@madocofcatarina7190]

Haken is the fucking best 🤟

[@DashieNegan41]

Hell yeah Haken and Aeternam

[@connollyc]

[@danielmorris5276]

Circles is a masterpiece hands down.

[@jhnw9796]

I'd have to agree with Scott, Bury Tomorrow's album Cannibal is the best album of the year

[@bayvirus22]

It's folklore

[@gulamjina]

Bob Dylan - rough and rowdy ways josh okeefe - bloomin' Neil young - homegrown

[@jeaninedewaard1336]

My favourite is Wake Up, Sunshine by All Time Low

[@TheReverOcelot]

The New Abnormal is the best so far for me

[@dinosoid2000]
