Ooh i have to think again what I bought this year and what of that is released this year.
Likely top 4
Tyshawn Sorey - Unfiltered
Thirlwell & Steensland - Oscillosomething
Jennifer Curtis & Tyshawn Sorey - Invisible Ritual
Eight Blackbird - In the death of night.
Discovery of the year is Tyshawn Sorey for me. I bought 4 of his albums, but that is 11 hours of music. Still digesting it all.

I blame Wynton, what was the question?
There are only 10 types of people in the World, those who understand binary and those that don't.
How is that Verneri Pohjola album? I only have Pekka by him.
It is quite slow and moody jazz. Little bit in the vein of stuff that Miles Davis did in the sixties. Pleasant but not particularly stunning album.
Here is one review to give more insight about the album: https://www.allaboutjazz.com/the-dea...dition-records
My progressive music site: https://pienemmatpurot.com/ Reviews in English: https://pienemmatpurot.com/in-english/
Could be interesting. Found pieces on YouTube, so I'll listen to those first.
Definitely on the List:
The Midnight - Monsters
Oranssi Pazuzu - Mestarin Kynsi
Yamaneko - Spa Commissions 2
Carpenter Brut - Blood Machines OST
Roly Porter - Kistvaen
Makeup and Vanity Set - Liturgy
Mine (for personal reasons)
Contendors, Undecided:
Caspian - On Circles
Ulver - Flowers of Evil
Bruce Hornsby - Non-Secure Connection
Taylor Swift - Folklore
Alva Noto - Xerrox Vol 4
Still lots to come this year though...
If you're actually reading this then chances are you already have my last album but if NOT and you're curious:
https://battema.bandcamp.com/
Also, Ephemeral Sun: it's a thing and we like making things that might be your thing: https://ephemeralsun.bandcamp.com
I'd have been worried if it wasn't on your list.
Very good CD, btw. It's on my list too.
Some additions...
Oumou Sangaré - Acoustic
Black Art Jazz Collective - Ascension
Tanya Donelly and the Parkington Sisters - Tanya Donelly and the Parkington Sisters

Rather shockingly I bought this based on a recommendation from a friend in England who's tastes normally run to AC/DC, Black Sabbath, Motorhead & the like.

Do you like it?
I have all of the RP albums; the prior three had a much more "cosmic" scope in the music, art, all that stuff. Kistvaen is more grounded, and IMHO is absolutely gorgeous.

This is particularly good https://titantotachyons.bandcamp.com/album/cactides
2/3 of Zorn's Simulacrum (Matt Hollenberg and Kenny Grohowski) team with super-talented, super-beautiful guitar player Sally Gates for an excellent morsel of experimental/avant/metal music.
Never heard of this and it is good! Thank you.

“Remember, if it doesn't say "Cuneiform," it's not prog!” - THE Jed Levin
Any time any one speaks to me about any musical project, the one absolute given is "it will not make big money". [tip of the hat to HK]
"Death to false 'support the scene' prog!"
please add 'imo' wherever you like, to avoid offending those easily offended.
This is super. I used to say of Guapo that if you've got James Sedwards in your band and he isn't playing guitar, you know you've got quite a guitarist. The same applies with Matt Hollenberg - and Sally Gates is stellar for sure.
Also, at this point if Kenny Grohowski joined a Milli Vanilli cover band I'd probably buy the record.
Oh hell yeah, great stuff.

Dang... I'm still catching up on the 2020 releases I've acquired but not gotten around to actually hearing yet.
I knew you'd like this
Lol, although this would be a cover-cover band, since Milli Vanilli were a cover band of themselves
Those two words sound very pleasant when coming from certain people...
