Re: Top 100 Albums of 2021

Amazing write up Claus! There are several on you list I never heard of, and will check out.

Your #1 is a great pick. Flots is on fire with the last 2 releases! I hope they keep it going.

Cheers,

Re: Mardoch's belated 2020 Top 18

2020 was roundly a disaster of a year in most ways, and it closed out in a super shitty fashion for me and mine so I never got around to forcing myself to categorize and write up my top albums list. I'm only a year late! Was it ever! 2021 was even worse! Hope 2022 doesn't follow that trend. These ar...

Re: Top 50 of 2021

Some thoughts on a lot of these. 50. Astrakhan- A Slow Rides Towards Death I had (I think) their first couple of recordings. Didn't realize they were still around. If memories serves correctly, they were more of a melodic metal/hard rock act prior to this one. Which is more metal. I like this, and p...

3 of your top 5 in my top 5. Right on Bro. I liked Flots as well. Also, need to check out #3. Never got around to it. Debated TYS in the 2 thru 4 spots. Could've been anywhere there for me. Nice! Happy to see TYS getting some love.. :D Flots seems like an oddball for me, but it really hit the spot.

I think Fandango is absolutely fantastic! It’s quirky and part of what made PoS great imo, instead of being another follow DT band. I know you have issues with quirky so I get that.
