Miquel The Work Geordie Posted 5 December 2016 Share Posted 5 December 2016 Another year down then lads, solid year imqho tbqwhy. Lets do the usual lists and that. Try and limit this to five at the very max for each one and it's bloody difficult. Track(s) of the Year : Jamie T - Power Over Men, The Last Shadow Puppets - Miracle Aligner, Joey Purp - Girls @, How To Dress Well - Can't You Tell, JAWS - Work It Out Album(s) of the Year : Danny Brown - Atrocity Exhibition, JAWS - Simplicity, Kanye West - The Life of Pablo, Bon Iver - 22, A Million, Nx Worries - Yes Lawd! Disappointment(s) of the Year : Anything new by the Stone Roses - so drab and boring to listen to. Views by Drake had absolutely no replay value, shit. Kasabian at the King Power, shadow of Vicky Park. Surprise(s) of the Year : The Last Shadow Puppets, liked them before but their effort this year was brilliant. Gig(s) of the Year : Spector - the Cookie in town for a tenner, TLSP - Ally Pally What you're looking forward to in 2017 : New albums from Los Campesinos, the xx and Run the Jewels, Maccabees farewell gigs.

spacemunky Posted 6 December 2016 Share Posted 6 December 2016 Sadly my two favourites were from artists that passed away shortly after release: You Want It Darker-Leonard Cohen Blackstar-David Bowie Also liked the return of form for: Dystopia-Megadeth The Serenity of Suffering-Korn Disappointed with: A Moon Shaped Pool-Radiohead(even though I enjoy it, I still keep hoping for something that doesn't make me sleepy) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FireFox Posted 6 December 2016 Share Posted 6 December 2016 Album(s) of the Year : in no particular order Pennied Days by Night Moves Mirage by Digitalism Ash & Ice by The Kills Trick by Jamie T Peel by Coves The Ride by Catfish and the Bottlemen Disappointment(s) of the Year : No new Kasabian album Canceled Slaves tour (of the US) Having to miss a TLSP show, my own fault CATB concert - the crowd was awful, and they played more songs off their 1st album than 2nd Surprise of the Year : Ash & Ice by The Kills - they've always made good albums, but this one is nearly perfect Gig of the Year : The Joy Formidable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RonnieTodger Posted 6 December 2016 Share Posted 6 December 2016 Track(s) of the Year : Sundara Karma - Vivienne Album(s) of the Year : Jamie T - Trick Disappointment(s) of the Year : Agree about Stone Roses. I bought tickets for the Etihad, then double booked with the Euros and it was so hard to get rid of them Surprise(s) of the Year : An all-female band called The Big Moon. really enjoyed watching them. Gig(s) of the Year : Noel Gallagher's set at Y Not. I loved Kasabian at the King Power, but I didn't go to Vicky Park, so I can't compare. What you're looking forward to in 2017 : Sundara Karma in Leicester. They and VANT are releasing their first album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Osavo Posted 6 December 2016 Share Posted 6 December 2016 Tracks: Joan of Arc - Jamie T, All Night - Chance, Aviation - TLSP, Got It Good - Kaytranada Albums: Trick - Jamie T, Sept 5th - dvsn, Malibu - Anderson Paak, Colouring Book - Chance Disappointments: was disappointed by Frank Ocean's effort, not even close to cO. TDCC's new album was pretty poor after a couple of promising singles, RHCP's album was bland and for me proved that they will never hit the heights of Californication again. Gigs: The Wombats' set at Leeds was class, as was J. Cole's at Wireless. Loved Kasabian at the KP too. Looking forward to: A new Killers album hopefully, plus the xx.
