Incredible String Band crossed with Captain Beefheart.

This, frankly, is absolutely magnificent. When it gets going, holy shit....

Wow, this is really interesting.

Controversial statement round these parts maybe....

....but the new Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds album is very good.

Full credit to David Holmes, whose production work I always look out for.

Did you see Sleaford Mods quip about him today? I nearly spat my coffee out.

I saw him tonight, great show. Loved the new material - This Old Dog is in my top 10 for 2017.

I thought this album by A.M. Architect (on Deru's new label 79Ancestors) had some moments of beauty:

This UK artist known as "Sangam" releases a ridiculous amount of music each year. Gorgeous, melancholy ambient goodness:

My first 2 cents:

RRAREBEAR - 'Essence' has been one of my favorite new discoveries.

Some of my fav albums of 2017:

Alvvays - Antisocialites
Arca - Arca
Björk - Utopia
Brockhampton - Saturation
Father John Misty - Pure Comedy
Jay Z. - 4:44
Kelela - Take Me Apart
Kendrick Lamar - Damn.
Mount Eerie - A Crow Looked At Me
Perfume Genius - No Shape
Rina Sawayama - Rina
Sampha - Process
Thundercat - Drunk
Tyler the Creator - Flower Boy
The xx - I See You
Xiu xiu - Forget

There's still a lot of 2017 albums I haven't listened to yet. I gotta check out that Godspeed album!

I completely forgot the Thundercat album- in my head it’s been out for ages, as in longer than just this year.

Good one thank you. I haven't had time to discover that much music this year, I've just been so busy.

On the last day of 2017 I found this... https://tree34z.bandcamp.com/album/ate

Apparently he's only 15.

Wow that's impressive.

Great sound at such a young age.

Can we unsticky this thread now? 2017 is soooooo 2017
