What do you think is the worst year for music out of the last 50-odd years?

What do you think is the worst year for music out of the last 50-odd years?

Pic related is mine. Can't really think of a single album I like that came out that year.

there were plenty of good albums from 2008

2016

Name some

2008 was definitely a weak year, but I think just because of Deathconciousness it can't be the worst.
This I can agree with. Pretty much every album I was anticipating was a disappointment.

Agree

Only 2 decent albums so far

i'm not spoonfeeding u lol

Probably some year in the 80's.

2016's not over yet though.
I can't really argue because I haven't been listening to or keeping up with current music this year, got too much good older stuff to catch up on.

Jesus christ this is beyond Cred Forums level autism

As far as rock/alternative goes, 2013 is my least favorite year.

There were only 8 songs that topped the Alternative Songs chart:
>Muse - Madness
>Imagine Dragons - Radioactive
>The Neighbourhood - Sweater Weather
>Capital Cities - Safe and Sound
>Lorde - Royals
>Fitz and the Tantrums - Out of my League
>Bastille - Pompeii
>Cage the Elephant - Come a Little Closer

I hate Madness - It's Muse's most overrated song. Plus that album is incredibly weak

Imagine Dragons is an overrated """band""".

The Neighbourhood, Capital Cities, and Bastille are one-hit wonders.

Lorde is good, but she's an artpop singer, not an alternative rock musician.

I fucking hate Fitz and the Tantrums. I don't understand how they have a career.

Come a Litte Closer is the only good song that topped.

2013 was so bad that I started listening to classic rock radio almost entirely. I intentionally avoided my city's modern rock station because that year was so awful.

>paying attention to charts

This is a great album that came out in 2008.

>relying on Pitchfork and Anthony Fagtano to make up your mind for you

nah man, new jerry paper and sean nicholas savage albums were god tier

I think the only years I feel are bad in music are the years I didn't look into too much. There's always something good in every year.

>relying on anything to make your mind up for you
Literally a drone.

>There's always something good in every year.
Of course there is, but some years you have to search a bit harder to find things you like

deerhunter's microcastle/weird era came out in 2008 and that's one of my favorites, besides that it looks meh. I think personally for me last year was kind of shit.

I don't rely on charts to make up my mind.

In case you didn't notice, I said only one of the 8 songs was good.

If I was relying on charts to make up my mind, I would have praised and performed fellatio on every single song/artist.

But quantifying that is such a hassle.
And even then, your statement would be "the worst year for the stuff I like".
I guess that would be 2004 or 2008 for me, but it would differ entirely from person to person.

>but it would differ entirely from person to person.
Yeah, I thought that was a given when I made this thread

But 2008 was really, really good.

Why?

>Adebisi Shank
>Algernon Cadwallader
>Microcastle
>Women's S/T

AOTYAY

Well, there were loads of ace releases, m8.
