We're high on love.

61. Obliterations Poison Everything

Kickin shit off right because that's how you're supposed to fuckin do it.



60. Torn Hawk Fist

Okay, we're not gonna lie. This partially made it here because it's called Fist.

55. Ariana Grande My Everything

Back in August th' tough bros on /mu/ were trying to be all poptimist-tough like "wtf pitchfork didn't review this album yet" and it had only been out for like 2 days. And the tough rock /mu/ bros were like "dude whatever why aren't you listening to King Crimson and Zappa and posting your top 100 album grids like the rest of us." And the females were like "..." get it bc there are no girls on 4chan because they hate girls.

54. The Gotobeds Poor People Are Revolting

Ariana, we exchanged drugs and smiles that one time. Don't you remember? #missedconnections Oh wait, we've moved onto The Gotobeds. They smashed a Parquet Courts album in their video so we like them.



53. Dog / Big Neck Police [split]

That movie about the dog that was also a cop.



52. Palberta Shitheads In The Ditch

Palberta. The coolest. #1 forever.

51. Gangsta Boo & La Chat Witch

Dude if Juicy J retires from music honestly what are we gonna do? Can there at least be a Juicy J & Gangsta Boo collab mixtape and world tour real quick before that happens?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_eDbf-TTWE8

50. Kero Kero Bonito Intro Bonito

Who was that dumb dude in 4th grade who was like "Dude, I heard that they have Super Mario Brothers 4 in California now, and they just put out Super Mario Brothers 5 in Japan." And that other dumb girl who was like "I get really mad in World 3 when I can't beat the fire guy and the baby fires." Rough times. Kero Kero are way cooler than both of those dolts.

45. Angel Olsen Burn Your Fire For No Witness

"I come to spread peace." - Angel*. "How bout spreadin' dat angel ass mmm." - David Wain (*This might have been confusing. Angel Olsen did not actually say this, but rather a character from this Stella short who plays the role of "Angel.")

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O92cLmd7HGI

44. Flagland Love Hard

Tough love.



43. Nunslaughter Angelic Dread

The logical sequel to their last album Pool Boy.

https://soundcloud.com/capturedtracks/television-man

41. Schoolboy Q Oxymoron

At least one modern rapper should've had a big hit "featuring MC Hammer" by now. Can we get on this?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G-VW4fMD6Pc

40. LVL UP Hoodwink'd

Hello LVL UP. Welcome to the internet. The internet is a big friendly bear that wants to hug you.



39. Beak> Beak>> Bonus Album +

This counts as a real album.



38. Big Ups Eighteen Hours of Static

Hello Big Ups. We just want to make sure your stay with us here on the internet is comfortable. Oh what's that? They said they're debuting their new video on TRL tomorrow. We hope you enjoyed your stay.



37. Roomrunner Separate

Look no further: https://twitter.com/leroyeveryday



36. Good Throb Fuck Off

no you



35. Aphex Twin Syro

That lady at the Grammises was cool. She was like "and the winner is ... ... Effects Twin, Seero," and like no one clapped because they were like "wut I sorta know that 1 Skrillix song, jk James Taylor and Carole King should put out a techno album so that I get this category a little better."

http://warp.net/releases/syro/

34. Geronimo! Cheap Trick

Love At Bootykhan



33. Swans To Be Kind

Hi. I'm Ronald B. Williams here. And I'd like to talk to you all about some of the best songs in the whole world. Or how 'bout this next selection from the sweet 16 dance party. And if you like that one you should try out our next collection which is called I Like Beer and Boobs. 'Member to try callin' this number. Because these songs touch your heart because they mean so much to ya.



32. Warpaint Warpaint

But how warm is it?

https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZqsyBiYZFQ3DzBqHDAmh7Vh2g_4cbCSk

31. Eyehategod Eyehategod

Another no brainer. Anyone who's on the Gummo soundtrack automatically gets in our top 31 whenever they put out anything. (This is probably a lie because we forgot to put that Absu album from a few years ago.)



30. Andy Stott Faith In Strangers

This one really hits its stride around Track 3 and 4. Line 'em up.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DvPUaMHUzgk

26. Fatima Yellow Memories

noice.



25. Ava Luna Electric Ballroom

more like No New Dork get it? oh no, was that mean? Guys we're just kidding. Ava Luna is th' top dawg. sorry we were mean just there.



24. Jute Gyte Ressentiment

Dude, "The Grey King." I dunno how in the world we didn't include this in Hot Mix* but srsly "The Grey King." This is the jam.
*Okay we lied in that one little part because it's pretty easy to fuck up and miss one of the best songs from a Jute Gyte album - especially when it's the album's closing track - because what happens is that after about 25 minutes or so it might start to sound like infinite static and chainsaws. But yeah dude for real, "The Grey King." But also "Your Blood and Soil Are Piss and Shit" is really good too.



23. Ariel Pink Pom Pom

Step #1. beck answers the phone. "hello?"
Step #2. beck violently throws the phone on the ground
Step #3. beck and thurston smash the phone with baseball bats

22. Richard Dawson Nothing Important

http://genius.com/92851/Wu-tang-clan-wu-tang-clan-aint-nuthing-ta-fuck-wit/Im-causing-more-family-feuds-than-richard-dawson RZA compares his ability to create family fudes to that of Richard Dawson, the original host of the game show Family Feud. Though, to be fair, Dawson was more of a moderator of family feuds than an instigator. Family feuds can refer to how RZA breaks up families by sleeping with married mothers, or, less likely, it might mean that he creates gang wars.

21. Lil B Hoop Life

Not kidding, this is shockingly #based and consistent. "NBA Commercial." "Pass The Roc." "Call Me Coach." So many jams.

http://www.datpiff.com/Lil-B-The-BasedGod-Hoop-Life-mixtape.616799.html

20. Grass Is Green Vacation Vinny

Ear drummers. screeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeam. the GIG will come back hard soon. we have faith.



19. Priests Bodies And Control And Money And Power

Oh god yes. #1 forever and ever. When you try to put "<3" on this shit, Blogger assumes you're trying to start an html tag. How else are we supposed to bring the love? Less-than signs mean more than one thing you dingbat numbskull halfwit. (Yo see, now it's also messing up how the album gets placed. Bastard.)


18. Arrington de Dionyso with Gal Lazer Shiloach Lovers and Dragons

something about resisting authority and watching adult swim VOD during the day and adventure time at night and no one can stop me fuck you or something



17. Migos Rich ***** Timeline

"YRN" doesn't appear to be on any of their albums or mixtapes and we find this upsetting. (The one with Young Thug that came in at #24 on Hot Mix. They have another song or two with the same title but not the one with Young Thug.)

http://www.datpiff.com/Migos-Rich-Nigga-Timeline-mixtape.661196.html

16. Tinashe Aquarius

This one's a grower, not a shower. We didn't get it, and then like 2 months later it all hit is at once and dat shit went like "booooooooom."

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OAaAAp07u0A

15. Ex-Breathers EXBX

MXPX



14. Mac DeMarco Salad Days

Spinach, tomato, carrots, gorg, balsamic, xtra virg. Rhythm is a dancer.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0HQqXllXpfQ

13. Nicki Minaj The Pinkprint

This is weird because it's a Minaj album where we don't have any strong desire to cut anything and create our dream tracklisting with the 4 Japanese bonus tracks and the 5 Deluxe edition jams replacing the boring track 6 through 14 section. Although despite this, it strangely feels just as good as Pink Friday or Roman Reloaded or The Re-Up. We love Nicki so much that if she asked us to risk our lives and give her a ride to the trap to take care of some business, we would hesitantly be all like ".....ok, hop in."

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qzdl6uVlbmg

12. Palberta & New England Patriots Special Worship [split]

Now you see me. Now you don't. Banana fudge split. HIKE



11. Two Inch Astronaut Foulbrood

more like flour dude amiright



10. Charli XCX Sucker

Little known fact: Charli XCX is actually Charlie Murphy in disguise. So Rick James is all like "Bitch, come over her and have sex with Charlie Murphy." *clap clap* And then the bitch comes over and she's like "but that's not Charlie Murphy, it's Charli XCX" but actually they're the one and the same. I know, it's crazy.

07. PC Worship Social Rust

they stayed at my friend's house in pittsburgh and he said they were _____.
ok fill in the blank. did he say they were A) panoramic, B) brawny, C) amused, D) motionless, E) towering, F) B and D but not A, C and E, G) D and E, but not A, B and C, H) none of the above. you have 30 seconds. GO.



06. Aby Ngana Diop Liital

Turn this one all the way up. ALL THE WAY. And then buy bigger and better speakers so it's louder. Then throw away your copy of The Bodyguard Soundtrack because who the fuck cares about "I'm Every Woman" and "I Will Always Love You" anymore. The joke is that in 1993 a woman got arrested for playing "I Will Always Love You" over and over again for like 9 hours straight with her very loud surround system blaring at top volume. Strangely enough, Liital was first released right around the same time (and finally saw official vinyl re-release in 2014). Let's make this the new album that gets everyone arrested. We can do this people. The real deal. 1000%.

05. Real Estate Atlas

Love the day. Love the day. Love the day. Love that day.

04. Midnight No Mercy for Mayhem

I don't think you trust in my self righteous suicide. (When angels deserve to die.)



03. Vertical Scratchers Daughter of Everything

Fun fact: That one song with the weird singing towards the end is actually Robert Pollard. Whoa no wai.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C9lN6dQzcK8

02. Freddie Gibbs & Madlib Piñata

So much candy. Freddie Gibbs and Matlock. How did we get the en-yay over the n? How can we guarantee that 2 years from now it won't turn into a dollar sign followed by a question mark?



01. D'Angelo and the Vanguard Black Messiah
