Worst list ever

they just pick random bands, about 10 minutes of thought put into it. i'm tellin' ya

Let's call it a rhetorical question, unless you're inclined to answer.

Their label probably paid a good amount for advertising

To compare things like Undeath and Cave In who share basically that they both have distorted guitars is silly. These lists are just meant to make people argue and for bands and labels to share in social media. They should say here is our 40 favorites and list them alphabetically. That would be cooler.

Simon you dare call into question the editorial integrity of Decibel magazine?? I do prefer Invisible Oranges' EOY lists, where each tends to be genre-specific

This is worse than the decibel list. https://www.revolvermag.com/music/25-best-albums-2022

I never heard of any of those except SIROM. they're weird Slovenian experimental folk post-rock with crazy instruments. They rule. Everyone should listen to them

I've heard of Richard Dawson. From Family Feud. He made a record this year? Cool.
