These are probably my three favourite collections of music from this year, but they don't really feel like coherent albums because their first singles were released years ago already.

---

I'm not that much of an album listener though, I prefer singles. I'll post my list of favourite songs in a week or two, since the year isn't over yet and I still have a bunch of songs to listen to.

I'm not hip, so I don't really pay attention to recent pop music. But there are a few songs that I thought were good.

This one is funny as hell, Poppy's been a riot since her debut:

I really liked this one:

Not one of my favourite Lana Del Rey albums, but this song is one of the few that caught my ear

Albums:

Miranda Lambert - Wildcard
Avatarium - The Fire I Long For
Aaron Lewis - State I'm In
Jimmy Eat World - Surviving
Swallow the Sun - When a Shadow Is Forced Into the Light

Songs:

Easily my favourite of the year. Need an album ASAP.

Biggest disappointments:

Avantasia - Moonglow
Battle Beast - No More Hollywood Endings

Opeth - In Cauda Venenum
Sunn O))) - Life Metal

To be fair, except for these two, I listened to like three or four albums that released this year.

Meanwhile, what a rebel girl meant 27 years earlier to Gen X.

My favorite album of this year is " The Wonder " by Lena_Park (박정현), a korean-american singer.  Before of the full lenght album she released some of the songs since 2017 with Courting (연애중)

In 2018 One Umbrella(같은 우산) Minimal World and The End

In 2019 the new songs With You (같이) Remember (기억하자) , Seventeen , and the Love, Again (다시 사랑이)



She also released a song for first indipendence movement in korea A Prayer (대한이 살았다) and two o.s.t. : Like a starlight(별빛처럼) (inclused in the physical ver. of the album) and 아름다운 세상(A Whole New World) to promote Aladdin film. In korea this year was popular for her live performance of Chandelier in Begin Again 3.

Personally i love listening With You, Courting and Seventeen, i wish you enjoy <3

I bought one album in 2019.

Amazing.

That is my favorite song from 2019 don't have a favorite album.

1. Psycho - Red Velvet
2. Kill this love - BlackPink
3. Hit - Seventeen

Off the top of my head:

Tool - Fear Innoculum (massively surprised with this one after not really liking Lateralus, and being meh about 10000 Days)
Borknagar - True North
Rotting Christ - Heretics
