So we're over two months into the new year, time to start ranking our favorite albums. Your thoughts on this year's releases so far? |

Way too early to rank them, but so far I really like: The I Don't Cares "Wild Stab" Benji Hughes "Songs in the Key of Animal" Javier Escovedo "Kicked Out of Eden" Kinda bold 'n' crazy to attempt a music thread up in heeeyah. |

I'm late on listening to a lot of 2016 albums because I was still trying to get through a bunch of 2015 stuff over the last two months. But here's what I've liked most from what little I've heard from this year so far. It's kind of disproportionately leaning toward metal, but that'll even out later on. Albums: Aluk Todolo – Voix Oranssi Pazuzu – Värähtelijä Black Tusk – Pillars of Ash David Bowie – Blackstar Rangda – The Heretic's Bargain Adrian Younge – Something About April II EP: Krallice – Hyperion (only EP I've heard so far) Among the things I know I want to hear but haven't gotten around to: Sheer Mag III, Pinegrove, Nap Eyes, Roly Porter, Junior Boys, Anna Meredith, Jesu/Sun Kil Moon, Kendrick Lamar, nonkeen, and Porches. And probably Animal Collective, DIIV, Ty Segall, Tortoise, and Kanye, too. |

I definitely dig that I Don't Cares. Gave Benji Hughes a try, but it wasn't my bag. |
