***

Steve Lacy - “Bad Habit”


First time my song of the year was also a chart topper. Just stuck in my head for way too long this year (along with billions of others).

 

Angel Olsen - “Go Home”


Probably the album I listened to most in 2022, could have picked any number of these tracks. The “Go Home” lyrics are just so relatable. 


Queen Bey - “ALIEN SUPERSTAR”


This shit is out of this world! All hail the Queen Bey!!


Big Thief - “Certainty”


Listened to this one early and often in 2022. 


Panda Bear, Sonic Boom - “Edge of the Edge”


Sounds simultaneously old and futuristic, great album top to bottom. 


The 1975 - “Part of the Band”


The most interesting song to me on an album full of really good songs. 


Spoon - “Wild”


Good ol' guitar rock.


Animal Collective - “Walker”


Psychedelic pop rock goodness, Animal Collective's best stuff in a while.


Yeah Yeah Yeahs - “Spitting Off the Edge of the World”


Great song for the looming armageddon! 


Weyes Blood - “Hearts Aglow”


Weyes Blood paints a lovely picture in this one


Plains - “Hurricane”


If Katie Crutchfield did a collaboration album every year, I'd be ok with that.


Grace Ives - “Lullaby”


Janky Star is an awesome album name, and this one is infectious.


Dehd - “Bad Love”


Makes you wanna howwwl!


Taylor Swift - “Lavender Haze”


Sets the tone for all number one hits.


The Weeknd - “Take My Breath”


Became a go-to dance number in our household.


MJ Lenderman - “Hangover Game”


I've played this game before


Beth Orton - “Fractals”


Liked this album a lot, didn't fully appreciate the nuance until I listened with headphones on the plane


Phoenix - “Identical”


Great album closer ... Phoenix mastered their craft on this album. 


Wet Leg - “Angelica”


Feels like this came out a really long time ago now, still really fun.


S.G. Goodman - “All My Love Coming Back to Me”


Beer drinking, porch music.


Gang of Youths - “you in everything”


Nice way to start an album.


Two Shell - “Memory”


Freaky in the best way possible.


Hot Chip - “Out of My Depth”


Another great album closer. All the elements I like: poignant lyrics, nice build up, sweet release.


The Smile - “Free in The Knowledge”


What do the other guys in Radiohead even do?
