I’ve been running this series over on !games@hexbear.net , and I thought I’d bring it over here in some fashion. The end goal of this series is to get a coherent recommendation list from the people who use this site, in case anyone wants that. Not sure if I want this to cover every genre and decade like I’m doing with /c/games, but we’ll see how things shake out.

That being said, since it’s been about a month let’s hear your picks from last year.

Spanish Love Songs - Brave Faces Everyone

This album, written pre-COVID, captures all of 2020. It’s a natural critique of capitalism. It’s great. https://youtu.be/1Mizd6nwJEc

This was my most-listened album of 2020 by far. Absolutely excellent.
