I could say a lot, but I’ll boil it down to this. *sigh*

[@CrashThompson]

Yeah, no. That about covers it, right. 😆

[@TheHappySpaceman]

Crash, thank you so much for summarizing my thoughts on _Will of the People._ Matt Bellamy has said that he does not like far-right groups claiming his music and doesn't support them, but the issue is that his political messaging has become so vague over the years that _anyone_ could claim it. You'd think that the solution would be to do the opposite, make the music _less_ vague and more specific? It sucks, too, that Muse used to be my favorite band and I used to have to defend myself for liking them, but they've spent the past seven years trying their best to prove the haters right.

[@CrashThompson]

It pains me too. Their earlier stuff is soooo good and we all KNOW they're capable of better. I just don't know what the lads need to do to recalibrate at this point. I don't take comfort in "dogging them", but man, it's been a long downhill slope for nearly a decade now. Ya gotta call em how ya see em. 😵‍💫

[@ArtemyMusha]

The Austin Powers soundtrack comparison with Arctic Monkeys has potential to become so much funnier with this year's Best Of list if a certain album with Quincy Jones as a guest on it shows up on there.

[@eliasmg9144]

The loss reference was really too

[@KylieWilson]

Random observations: Man that Ctr-Alt-Del gag might be the most brutal you’ve ever done The amount of straining on Brendon’s voice gives me secondhand embarrassment As a former Muse fan, I still can’t get over how We Are Fucking Fucked exists. These guys are in their freaking 40s now and it sounds like something edgelord 13 year olds on 4chan would come up with Hope 2023 goes better for you!

[@gracecarpinter8623]

Yeah, We Are Fucking Fucked sounds like Reddit doomer BS. And like with edgy Redditors, Muse are sincerely Not Helping.

So Our Lady Peace... sold their last album... as a fucking NFT?! That alone is punishable for war crimes at the Hague.

[@inugamidalton8270]

I’m happy to see your mental health is doing better with your new way of doing things, and I’m still very glad to see you do these lists! I myself kind of missed out on a lot of contemporary music this year after falling into a jazz hole. Have a happy holiday season and may the almighty Record Deer grant us a healthy crop of albums next year! PRAISE UNTO OUR CERVINE MAESTRO! Edit: Oh, Sakanaction put out an album this year that I spun a whole lot, but that was about it.

[@CrashThompson]

Thanks Dalton. Have a happy holidays.

[@johnnyrock1130]

@@CrashThompson happy holidays to you too. Personally i strongly disagree with you on that Avril album, I think it's one of her strongest efforts in years and it's the good kind of throwback. I'm firmly with Spectrum Pulse on that one. I also kinda like Pale Waves new direction and I feel bad for their fans that got screwed over on that tour because rich asshole record execs were too cheap to fix a damn bus.

[@galleryofrogues]

So much of what made PATD cool and interesting was their original guitarist who quit ages ago. He brought all the clever lyrics, catchy riffs and arrangements.

[@UnboxedtvNet]

"Had to give you a career to destroy it" No Marshall, he's doing that on his own

[@LaNoLaCola]

When Crash brought up The 2nd Law at 38:25, I felt that. I listened to that album front to back when it got released, hell, I did a presentation for it during my junior year in high school. I enjoyed the 2nd Law so much that I maintained that it was Muse's best album.

[@Revealingstorm.]

I can understand liking the album, but their best? No freaking way man that I can't see

[@therobotdevil2284]

That's funny, my junior year I transposed an orchestral arrangement of some of The 2nd Law's strings sections for my high school orchestra to play, and we actually did it and it was really cool. Still enjoy that album.

[@mrflipperinvader7922]

I think I love his how Crash has become more "nicer" Like even talking about the bad albums there is a tone and mood of sincerity and trying to understand both sides of the coin, he'll actually give reasons in a calm matter and not just scream like a banshee

[@MyInfiniteZero]

AMAZING take on Spiritual Machines 2. THANK YOU for including the history of the first record, and why 2 feels fabricated!

[@miserirken]

Considering the album was an NFT shill, calling it _fabricated_ might be the most accurated way to describe it.

[@billiejoeeyelash]

WARNING: MASSIVE SPOILER ALERT FOR THE #6 SPOT Thank God you included that one here. That one was my #1 worst (tied with MGK), and I say it as a former fan of this band/artist, and I think this album in particular finally cemented a theory that I had been workshopping since 2020 when all the controversy against the guy started to really become relevant for once. This is gonna be a very weird one, but I finally have the perfect opportunity to share it. Brendon Urie is officially the Doug Walker of pop rock. Both started in the mid-2000s and got famous through the association of a close friend who was already top of the game at the time (Pete Wentz/James Rolfe), but then once that moment came when their projects were supposed to be done, they ended up reviving them in ways that would cause both the quality of their work and their credibility as people to have a very steady decline over time, not really helped by their heavy reliance on bringing in outside resources in order to put anything out these days. Not to mention, the really dark abuse cases that have happened involving higher-ups from behind the scenes who have committed heinous crimes against all the clients who worked for their professions (Zack Cloud Hall/Mike Michaud) and being revealed to have sheltered some very obscure, but very infamous sexual predators (Kenny Harris/JewWario) to the point where all the band members/content creators who worked for them finally had it and left for much superior projects on their own terms. Thus, with everything almost seeming like the beginning of the end (Pray for the Wicked/To Boldly Flee) for them, all their problematic actions finally got the best of them, and they put out painfully unlistenable albums containing a bunch of ear-piercing shrill vocals, sub-mediocre pastiches of classic rock legends, and an unignorable aura of misanthropic apathy and violent bitterness towards anyone who tries to hold an inkling of any form of accountability for all the harm they've caused to others (Viva Las Vengeance/The Wall). Yet somehow, through all of it, the diehards are still there, still trying to stand their ground and deny how far their heroes have fallen just because they did so much for their respective fields, but as the years go by, the less the content holds up, and the more you really feel the secondhand embarrassment for those fans who keep lying to themselves about how much need there is for Panic!/NC in this day and age. With that being said, I feel like it's time we put Brendon in the place where he and Doug both belong; left behind to waste away in the Bin.

[@josephtafur]

No, Brendon Urie is the Lea Michele of Pop Punk

[@jackhayes1698]

I think the thing with Doug is he shouts out only plays so people apparently like him again

[@jackhayes1698]

Oneyplays*

[@DeathMachineJoe]

Wouldn't necessarily agree with that take. I'm not a massive PATD! fan or anything but for all the controversy surrounding Urie, it seems that he's at least trying to better himself as a person after saying/doing many questionable things (unlike you-know-who). Sure, you can say whatever you want to about his music or ego, but I feel a lot of the drama is based off of false or exaggerated information. To be clear, I absolutely do not condone the things he has said in the past, but I don't think that makes him a truly awful human being. However, I totally get it if people don't feel like supporting him anymore. That being said, I feel we should at least give people a chance to grow as a person rather than trying to throw them under the bus for crap they did years ago. A lot of people forget that he raised a ton of money for charity towards the LGBTQ community. He also has apologized for a lot of the stuff he's said over the years on his Twitch streams and knows that he needs to hold himself accountable. When we dig up dirt from someone's past, we fail to see the good they've done over the years since we're so focused on the negative. As cliché as this is, nobody's perfect and we've all made plenty of mistakes in life. Still, there's no shame in wanting to leave Brendon Urie and his band behind and I understand if someone feels uncomfortable listening to PATD! now.

[@johnnyrock1130]

Walker still has actual talent though, some of his videos are still pretty damn good(his video tearing about Nutcracker 3-D is one of my all-time faves) Urie though, any talent he had is LONG dead and buried. Don't feel embarrassed for me at all for still liking NC, I feel embarrassed more for people that are so obsessed with trying to "convert" NC fans over to their side. Also Doug did not in fact "Shelter" Jew Wario at all, they had no idea what he did until after his death and his victims specifically asked CA NOT to make the JW thing public as they were afraid of his fans targeting them(a fear that was well-founded as on the CA sub-reddit one of his victims actually did an AMA and while most people were very respectful towards her there were still a few assholes casting doubt on her story and victim-blaming her)granted CA should've told the other members of CA behind the scenes so they didn't end up doing tributes to a predator.

[@Ellthom]

Always happy to see Crash on my timeline, even if he hasn't been around for a while, his presence just makes me smile. you take all the time you want to get back Crash, I totally understand the nature of burnout. We'll all be here when you get into your groove again. :)

[@MsAveryM]

Tranquility Base Hotel + Casino was like "wouldn't it be funny if we did this as like a joke?" and The Car is like "we're just doing the thing we joked about doing on the last album".

[@orionstephens6339]

Honestly your #2 spot really hurt and thats only because you're right. As much as I hate to say it, I wasn't a fan of New Spiritual Machones either. The First 5 Our Lady Peace albums culminating into the absolutely (in my case) life changing Gravity are some of my absolute most FAVORITE albums of all time. So yeah it uh....makes me sad too Crash, not necessarily because of the music but the gimmicks surrounding it. Great video

[@necrodamus5481]

Tbh, 2022 hasnt been that bad for music. Really the bad stuff this year theme wise to me at least was just more so a case accidental missteps of the artist falling into boring territory. Like they tried- But they still failed but we should give a D+ for effort. But then again, the mighty have fallen to a geat degree, but it feels accidental to me. Wasnt like last year where it was just a case "You should know better" and making utterly boring music purely to spite the fans or really they never had a chance to begin with

[@rainingwhenidie]

Honestly, Ghost in the honorable mentions hurts so much lmao. I'm not a weirdo who hates on other people for having different tastes though, and I respect that you didn't like it. Personally, I like how cheesy it is. Ghost is campy as hell and I like them having fun with it; twenties is really the only song I can't defend, even though I have a soft spot for it. But yeah, the reasoning is fair and I can see how ghost would be too cheesy for a lot people. I'm hoping the next album will have more Meliora vibes and go back to being more ominous lol.

[@ASLB247]

Okay, I was willing to stick up for MGK’s TTMD back in 2020. It wasn’t necessarily great but it was some dumb fun. I was wondering if mainstream sellout really was that bad or if I might have another popcorn album to listen to. Then I hear “I’m a genius, could’ve made donda”, and that line there was just the wave of wrong that convinced me you guys have a point; it was like a cosmic explosion in my mind telling me “okay, maybe I should avoid this!”. I mean I didn’t WANT to hate MGK, but Jesus, you cannot come back from a line like that.

[@johnnyrock1130]

I despised that album with every fiber of my being.

[@josephtafur]

I dislike TTMD And I didn't give Mainstream sellout any attention MGK is the High Guardian Spice of Pop Punk To put in Miraculous lingo MGK is bascally the falled Zag serise "Power Players", no one liked it.

When you remove the fun from a self-aware dropkick, then all you’re left with is misery. At least TTMD was kinda fun with only the occasional down moments.

Your #2 made my day. See, I listen to you and other music youtubers but it's actually rare to see certain acts I love from my teen/college years on these channels. They haven't had a good album since Healthy in Paranoid Times but I was so happy to see them on their Clumsy anniversary tour. So when I found they were actually coming back to New York and realized it was about the newer stuff, I did a clear pass on that. Cuz I heard enough of this album from preview to steer clear, I don't even know why it's called a sequel.

And as bad as country can be I’ve listened to more of that on the radio than other music, and honestly it’s kinda nice lol.

[@thornbrain]

You actually convinced me to give Our Lady Peace's first four a go a while back, but in doing so I saw that they released Spiritual Machines II as an NFT, and honestly that soured the entire thing for me. That's a stunt that both alienates your current fanbase and cuts off any future ones, so I appreciate you addressing it.

Thank you so much for covering Our Lady Peace. They are such a special band to me. I wish more people knew what magic they have as a band. I saw a clip years ago, where Raine is explaining Canada's music system. Nickleback killed their chances for a USA crossover. They played nice for years. Now, they seem like they have a bit more freedom than in the past when it comes to their accessibility. I often see them included for festivals across the US now. I'm just glad they didn't give up. (I agree, Spiritual Machines should not have a sequel....it is my all time favorite.)

Glad to see you back. Only now able to begin catching up. Have to admit, there wasn't too much that stuck with me. A lot of the things people are proclaiming in my chosen genre(s) feel underwhelming at best. A lot of the good stuff feels too textbook for me at this point. Not sure how to deal with that. Impera being a prime example. You and Jon both put it on your lists and I have to agree... why? Why is this so popular? It feels so empty to me...

[@donbeck8835]

[@nofuture104]

I think it's worth mentioning that pretty much all of the bitterness on The Family is aimed at social media like twitter and tiktok where outright lies about them spread about them and kindof killed any momentum they'd get from Ginger onward. Kevin seems to be on pretty good terms with everyone for the most part, they moreso just grew apart after the breakup, no full blown drama really stuck. I think the biggest drama was Kevin wanted to release the album they lost when Ameer got kicked to coincide with the original final album they were recording and fulfill the two albums they owed RCA but Dom (and maybe a few others) didn't want it out at all, or at least didn't want Ameer's verses to still be on it. Kevin wanting to be on good terms with both Dom and Ameer eventually just dropped the whole thing and that's probably one reason "The Family" exists. Another thing I think is worth noting is that Brockhampton was supposed to remain a collective after their final album but something happend to both kill the making of the OG final album and actually end the group for good, that's what lead to Kevin and Bearface making "The Family" without any other members, as I like to put it: "The Family" IS a Brockhampton album, it's just Kevin was the only member left at the time of recording.

[@nofuture104]

I know Bearface worked on "The Family" too but I genuinely think he checked out of the band immediately after Roadrunner which I think is supported by him not being on TM at all.

[@SuperDmath]

I liked a few songs on the Ghost album but I think you can read my mind. I didn’t even realize most of these albums came out this year. I made it about 4-5 songs into the MGK album and started wondering what I was doing with my life. This is coming from someone who actually listened to the Kid Rock album which I promise would’ve ranked really high on here had you listened as well.

[@johnenigma8506]

How does a record come out as an NFT? For that reason alone, Spiritual Machines II should qualify for an episode of TrainWreckords.

[@RiverOfWetness468]

Nah, OLP's TrainWreckord came twenty years ago with "Gravity". It was one of those "St. Anger"/"Be Here Now"-type records that kind of just signaled a metaphorical end for them, despite the fact that they would go on to keep making albums for the foreseeable future

[@FinleyBrownfox]

@@RiverOfWetness468 Probably because it was produced by Bob Rock, who was also the producer for St. Anger. Meanwhile, the producer who worked with the band on their first four albums went on to produce the debut album for - get this - Simple Plan. Fucking Simple Plan. What a waste

I really like the production and how secretly hooky it can be, but I completely understand if you take one look at Kevin's depressing drunk filled mess, and nope out. I just got hooked in by something on this, and I can just picture this bojack horseman moment where a drunk Kevin Abstract is crashing this goodbye celebration by stealing the microphone, and complaining about how much he's hated the band since his abusive friend got kicked out. It's just so revealing about Kevin Abstract as a person, and I just got used to the idea that everything in this record is fleeting, every moment can be snuffed out and seem into the general malaise that is substance addiction. This project actually got me interested for how the next Kevin abstract project will turn out. Like will he show change? further seep into his horrible habits? I genuinely have no idea, and I'm excited to see what's next

I'll say it again here as I did on ARTV's worst-of-the-year list: I wanted to like Will of the People so badly, but man was it probably the most disappointing album for me. Kill or be Killed is the best song on that album and it doesn't even reach the heights as something like New Born or Stockholm Syndrome.

My god Thank you for echoing my thoughts on Oliver Tree, I too have no idea what his appeal is, a man somehow trying too hard and not trying at all at the same time……

[@ladyoftheratking7801]

I spend too much time on pretentious online music websites and no one there likes Oliver Tree, they really hate him. I hate saying this but its music for people who don't like music, but have a really bad sense of humour like the songs are pop/rock/hip hop/country songs for people who think they're too good for those genres and are so far up their own asses they cant actually notice when it just smells like poop.

[@tragicunicorn12]

When Impera first came out I only liked two songs on it. After going to the tour for that album I warmed up to some of the other tracks but it's by far the worst Ghost record and I never listen to the whole album anymore

[@EmilyDavisOfficial]

Honestly haven’t been able to listen to the new NOFX album because I know it’s going to make me real sad.

[@manx18045]

Hey crash when you ever get the chance you should do an our lady peace htgi it would be a great in depth take on a band that nobody on KZbin not even Rocked has ever done. I mean considering your tragically hip video I think you’d be doing a great service for Canadian rock. 🤘

[@CrashThompson]

Eh, only problem with that is that there not much to say there. Here's the quick version: Start at Spiritual Machines I and work backwards. There's your Must Hears. Next Steps is Gravity, their first record without Mike Turner. It's good, but it's basically "the beginning of the end" and they'll never sound this good again. Everything else... Eh, it's basically Proceed with Caution. I kinda like Burn Burn because it's got some good slower tracks on it so maybe I'd throw that one in Deep Digging, but I don't think most folks would be terribly impressed. OLP are one of those bands with a CLEAR cut off point and that point is SM1. You don't really need to hear anything else and like... There's not much of a story to tell. They just got flabby and boring over time.

My dude, same. I've loved music my whole life, and it was just frustrating this year. Ok. I'm not getting tik tok ever because of the way it tracks your data. But that's where a lot of big hits came from. I watch these channels because it's my only way, literly only way to get any music that may or not be trending on there. End result: I felt very out of the crowd this year. I'm not one for following other crowds, but maaaan it was a bad year for me to feel it. I've been lonely as hell as of lately. I've got my peers but lately they've been off doing their own thing. I Dated around a little for the first time in a while, MAN that was a trainwreck. Woulda been a good time for music? Nah, the music made me feel more lonely because everyone was getting these fairytale relationships or they remind me how fucked up my experience felt. Tldr. 2022 was even worse for me. Why would next year be any better? I keep hope, but what's the point? Also, your channel makes me feel less lonely. Thanks for making this content!

Why is tik tic the only way to get music for you? That sounds fucked up.

[@breakingmadeline3063]

@@mycity7590 one, I ment that's is where music has been trending nowadays. Two, I don't use tik tok because of the data tracking methods. I don't exactly think that app appeals to me to be honest.

@@breakingmadeline3063 Oh... Good then Why do you let trandy music make feel that way tho. Are you like, Jealous? Something to think about.

[@breakingmadeline3063]

@@mycity7590Nah, I just feel left out. It's less of a "why do they have it" and more of a "why can't I have it." It's been amplified by just plain loneliness and unfurfillment. I just feel more connected with my peers when I, at the very least try out or indulge in what they like. Hard when you don't use that app these days. And I'd already have enough data out there. Don't need more.

[@grantbeck8482]

I thought double album was marginally better than single album, but that being said, not a very high bar lol. I feel like if Nofx would’ve retired right after First Ditch Effort, they would’ve went out on a much better note, especially when you count what Mike said in Vegas in 2017-18 (can’t really remember). The past 5 years have not been great to Nofx, but it’s pretty much all their fault.

[@09philj]

Interpol have been on a downward spiral since Our Love to Admire for me. I also did not care for Impera. Neither the doom laden vibes of Ghost's earlier work, nor the hook laden fun of the better tracks from Prequelle and Seven Inches of Satanic Panic. Personally I bounced right off of The Unravelling of PUPTHEBAND. I felt Morbid Stuff was a bit uneven but it broadly do the Pup thing that was so good on the self titled and The Dream is Over. Unravelling loses sight of that, lacking the breakneck hooks or sweet harmonies from those albums.

Not sure if it was the worst but man was I disappointed with Blackstar's second record. I knew I couldn't expect it to be as good as their classic debut but GOOD DAMM was it a low-effort MEH of an album.

[@zdoggzero6595]

Actually, I sorta got this. Their best albums in my opinion are Punk in Drublic, White Trash Two Heebs and a Bean, War on Errorism, and either Pump Up the Valuum or First Ditch Effort (it changes time to time)
