Zo ver ik weet kan dat niet.

Neen en in alle eerlijkheid zou dat ook niet zo logisch zijn. Het is namelijk uitgekomen in 2016.

Ik snap wel het dilemma hierachter want ook ik heb albums die in de laatste weken van het jaar uit komen en die dan niet in de jaarlijst komen. Ze moet dan nog bezinken dan wel dat je door de feestdagen geen tijd hebt om er al kennis van te nemen.

Albums uit de eerste helft van het jaar staan bij dan ook steevast hoger in mijn eindlijst dan die na de zomer uit komen.

1. (1) Thurston Moore - Rock N Roll Consciousness
2. (-) Steven Wilson - To The Bone
3. (2) Spoon - Hot Thoughts
4. (3) Perfume Genius - No Shape
5. (4) Bjørn Riis - Forever Comes To An End
6. (-) Arcade Fire - Everything Now
7. (6) Grandaddy - Last Place
8. (-) Manchester Orchestra - A Black Mile To The Surface
9. (5) Depeche Mode - Spirit
10. (7) Kevin Morby - City Music

11. (8) Roger Waters - Is This The Life We Really Want?
12. (9) Paul Weller - A Kind Revolution

17. Avatarium – Hurricanes and Halos
18. Venenum – Trance of Death
19. Execration – Return to the Void
20. Kairon; IRSE! – Ruination

Ik denk dat er in september veel gaat veranderen in mijn lijst. Veel goede albums gehoord, maar nog niet genoeg beluisterd voor een notering.

Albums waar ik benieuwd naar ben in september: LCD Soundsystem, Mogwai, Dälek, Septicflesh, The National, Motorpsycho, Deerhoof, Ariel Pink, Benjamin Clementine, Caligula's Horse, The Contortionist, Grave Pleasures, Chelsea Wolfe, Godspeed You! Black Emperor, Counterparts, Wolves in the Throne Room, Ufomammut, Monarch, Mastodon, METZ, Vulture Industries, With the Dead, Process of Guilt, Kamasi Washington, Kadavar, TORRES, 36 Crazyfists, Primus, Radio Moscow, Ben Frost

Exact dit! Bedankt om mijn gedachten te verwoorden. RTJ3 kwam bijv. uit op 25 december, wat wil zeggen dat er letterlijk maar 5-6 dagen waren om het ten gronde te beluisteren, te laten inzinken en er een mening over te vormen. Voor mij persoonlijk te weinig, zeker wat albums betreft die zichzelf niet direct prijsgeven.

Twee nieuwe contenders voor album van het jaar in de laatste paar weken: Grizzly Bear en MuteMath.

Mijn album van het jaar is al bekend en ik verwacht dat de kans dat de rest van m'n top 3 in december nog hetzelfde ook levensgroot is. De release van TayTays nieuwe plaat in november gaat daar waarschijnlijk weinig aan veranderen.

01. (==) The National - Sleep Well Beast (2017)
02. (01) Spinvis - Trein Vuur Dageraad (2017)
03. (02) Lorde - Melodrama (2017) 5*

09. (07) Jens Lekman - Life Will See You Now (2017)
10. (08) Ali Barter - A Suitable Girl (2017) 4,5*

Opmerkelijk: Post-punk dat langzaam plaats maakt voor progressieve synthpoprockmetal. Grote kanshebbers zijn nog: Sparks, Lunatic Soul en een grote (on)bekende! Moonspell?
