50. Dogs in a Pile  - Distroid I still think something about the way they recorded this album sounds a bit hollow, but the songs themselves are just so good that it doesn’t matter! I really appreciated how the last few tracks on the album transition well into each other. Hopefully they continue to put out quality songs, and who knows, maybe they’ll even improve some with the next album too! 49. Oneothrix Point Never  - Tranquilizer I probably should’ve put “ Cherry Blue ” on

50. Chance the Rapper  - " Drapetomania "  (Feat. BabyChiefDoit ) Is this song that objectively great? Probably not, but I do enjoy it quite a bit! It’s kind of nice to hear a banger where he explicitly talks about how he has a new chain that says, “Fuck ICE”. And I can’t think of a better phrase right now than fuck ICE!  49.

So Sqwerv didn’t come on stage until at least 10, and I was just tired at that point. All of the bands sounded good, especially Zoo

Gorillaz has quietly become one of the biggest bands of the last 25 years, but they’re not even really a band. They are a collection of cartoon characters. Murdoc is the bassist and leader this is often getting into trouble, 2-D is the apathetic lead singer, Noodle is the guitar prodigy who joined the band as a child, and Russell is the drummer who is often being possessed by different figures. The virtual character aspect of the band isn’t just a one off thing, it’s a b
