Best Of 2021 (top 50)

With my best of 2022 coming soon, I thought It would be a good idea to do one for last year. It won't be that accurate since I didn't pay that much attention to new releases in 2021. But I still found enough music to make a top 50 list for the year. Don't forget that this list is completely subjective so please feel free to show your favourites in the comments

1.Iotunn - Access All Worlds
2.Simulacrum - Genesis
3.Turbulence - Frontal
4.Obscura - A Valediction
5.Between The Buried And Me - Colors II

2021: Jan-Jun

After clocking well over 700 albums in 2020, I'm hoping 2021 will be a bit busier IRL and thus slightly less comprehensively covered in these lists, but let's see - with all the new strains emerging, who TF knows when we might return to a semblance of normality. Until then, I'll be trying to make sure that nothing noteworthy passes my radar.

1.Vulgaris - Asundre
2.Dvne - Etemen Ænka
3.Heliocentric - Ishmael
4.Decline Of The I - Johannes
5.Dordeduh - Har
