Top Albums of the Year: The Dropouts

 

Just a quick and dirty follow-up post for my previous 2024 Albums of the Year post. I mentioned there that the original draft of the post was 34 albums long, which I cut down to 25. I still felt those albums were worth spotlighting in some regard, so I present: The Dropouts.

In alphabetical order, the other nine albums that were in contention for space on the end-of-year list were:

• Fever by LUCY (2023)
• How Do You Feel Now? by Joywave (2015)
• I Contain Flashing Images by No Mana (2024)
• Nowhere by Friday Pilots Club (2024)
• Permanent Pleasures by Joywave (2024)
• Placebo by Betcha (2023)
• Sky Hundred by Parannoul (2024)
• Store Brand Talent by Lighten Up, Francis (2024)
• The Window by Ratboys (2023)

You can listen to the expanded 2024 favorites playlist including these entries here. It's over 24 hours long, so good luck.
