Did we have one of these? I had a REALLY narrow focus music wise last year, the only new albums I was listening to were John Mayer's Sob Rock Architects' For Those Who Wish To Exist, and Spiritbox's Eternal Blue... All absolute bangers though!

How'd did 2021 pan out musically for the rest of you?

Twelve foot ninja - Vengeance.

Nobody does genre blurring quite as well.

I don’t have too many that would make the list, but off the top off my head highlights for me would include the following…

Plus these two

I think the only new album I listened to in 2021 was the new Black Label Society one, although with my head for dates at the moment that could have come out at the start of this year for all I know.

I can't say whether it's one of the best albums of 2021 because I didn't listen to any others. There's some strong tracks on there, but unsurprisingly it doesn't break a lot of new ground.

This is going to sound odd,

One of my absolute favourite albums from last year was probably

Halsey : If I Can't Have Love I Want Power



blew me away when I first heard the album, and got a whole new lease of life when I managed to get a copy on Vinyl.

Produced by Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross, so has a very familiar undercurrent for me.

Oh man how did I forget this one, an absolute banger!!! Have you watched the full length film of the album?

no wasn't even aware of it, must chase it down

Low - Hey What & Idles - Crawler got me through a shit end to what was already a pretty shit year.

Trivium - In The Court of the Dragon. SO good.

Gave this a go today - nahhh, not for me

This for me

Totally awesome I think

Was Vulgar Display of Power released last year? I've lost track.

Ray Wilson's The Weight of Man gets my vote. A stunning album, and Ali Ferguson's guitar work will please any Dave Gilmour fans.

I’ll check that one out, thanks. Not really a Gilmour fan but I’m a huge Steve Rothery fanboi so it could fall in the ballpark
